Install Instructions

Vent/Air System Joint Assembly
1. When installing the vent system, the female end
of the pipe or fitting should face up or away
from the appliance.
2. Prior to assembly of any piping or fittings
inspect and ensure the inner pipe gasket seal is
present, undamaged and properly seated in the
groove of the pipe.
3. Insert and rotate the male end of the inner pipe
into the female end of the previous pipe section.
It is recommend to moisten the gasket seal with
clean water prior to assembly.
To aid in the assembly of the pipes and fit-
tings use only clean water to moisten the gas-
ket and the mating male end of the pipe. Use
a twisting motion as the pipe ends are pressed
together.
4. Push the sections together firmly until the outer
jacket bead of the new section has made contact
with the edge of the female end of the previous
section. When fully assembled, the outer female
end of the previous section will overlap the
male end by approximately 1”[25mm].
5. Use 2 self-drilling screws provided to secure the
outer sections together where they overlap.
Install screws 90º apart from one another. No
pre-drilling is required.
Do not over tighten the self-drilling screws
into the sections. Use a low torque screw
drive to prevent stripping out the holes. If a
hole becomes stripped due to over tightening,
a larger diameter screw (length of screw
must not exceed 1/2” [13mm]) or a short pop
rivet may be used.
