VENTING INSTALLATION
INSTALLATION FOR HORIZONTAL TERMINATION
1. Determine the route your horizontal venting will take.
Note: The location of the horizontal vent termination
on the exterior wall must meet all local and national
building codes.
Do not recess vent terminal into a wall
or siding.
WARNING
Snorkel terminations are available for terminations requiring a
vertical rise on the exterior of the building. See Figures 8 and 9.
Follow the same installation procedures used for standard hori-
zontal terminations. If installing the snorkel termination below
grade (basement applications), you must provide proper drain-
age to prevent water from entering the snorkel termination. See
Figure 9. Do not back ll around the snorkel termination.
2. Rigid vent pipes and ttings have special twist-lock con-
nections. Assemble the desired combination of pipe and
elbows to the appliance adaptor with pipe seams oriented
towards the wall or oor.
Twist-lock Procedure: The female ends of the pipes and
ttings have three locking lugs (indentations). These lugs
will slide straight into matching slots on the male end of
adjacent pipes and ttings. Push the pipe sections together
and twist one section clockwise approximately one-quarter
turn until the sections are fully locked. See Figure 10.

Note: Horizontal runs of vent
must be supported every (3)
three feet (914mm). Use wall
straps for this purpose.
