754) Adjusting the vent terminal lengthCombustion and operation problems my result if the vent terminal isn't set to the appropriate length.The length of the vent terminal must be adjustedto fit the wall thickness before the installationis completed.Remove this screw and slideout the external cylinder.Intake slide pipeAt this point, make sure thesupply and exhaust slide pipeshave been inserted into ventterminal.Make sure the connections are secure and take measures toprevent exhaust gas from leaking. Use high temperature sealantif necessary.(1) Drill a hole (0.2" dia.) through the water heater exhaust fluecollar to meet with the hole in the exhaust slide pipe ofthe vent terminal(2) Seal connections between the water heater and thevent terminal with high temperature sealant to ensureexhaust gas won't leak.(3) Screw the exhaust slide pipe of the vent terminal to theflue collar of the water heater using the included tappingscrew.(4) Cover all of the connections between the water heaterand the vent terminal with the included aluminumtape.* Note that the aluminum tape by itself is not sufficient tomake the connection gas tight and prevent the terminalfrom becoming disconnected from the water heater.(5) After completing the installation, perform a test run ofthe water heater according to the installation manual.SleeveStandard projectionlength: 3 inchesThe red line should be visible.The red rectangle should not bevisible from the outdoors.External wall surfaceExhaust slide pipeVent terminalWing nutWind packing along the red rectangleonly for wall thicknesses of 14.5" to27" support products.Vent terminalAluminum tape (short)Tapping screwAluminum tape (long)ExhaustpipeIntakepipe5) Extend the supply and exhaust slide pipes to connect the vent terminal to the water heater.
