If the Snorkel Termination must be installed 
below grade, i.e. basement application, 
proper drainage must be provided to prevent 
water from entering the Snorkel Termination. 
Refer to Dura-Vent Installation instructions 
for details.. Do not attempt to enclose the 
Snorkel within the wall, or any other type 
of enclosure.

4)  Install wall penetration heat shield in the center 

of the 9-1/2" round hole and attach with wood 
screws. The four wood screws provided should 
be replaced with appropriate fasteners for 
stucco, brick, concrete, or other types of sidings. 
Diagram 3.

5)  If installing termination on a siding covered 

wall, a vinyl siding standoff or furring strips 
must be used to ensure that the termination is 
not recessed into the siding.  Diagram. 3.

6)  Take the Riser Vent terminal and separate the 

Backing Plate from the Riser Vent Front by 
removing 8 screws as shown in diagram 4.

7)  Install the Backing Plate into the wall 

penetration heat shield and attach using 
4 screws. Diagram 4.

8)  Connect all pipe sections to unit and 

install into wall:

 a)  Measure pipe length required and 

cut to length. Hint: use the cut end 
of the 6-5/8" dia. outer pipe at the 
fl ue terminal end.

 b)  Push the pipe sections completely 

together, the minimum pipe overlap 
is 1-1/4".  Secure all outer pipe joints 
by using at least two screws. Locate 
the screws at the bottom of the pipe 
so that the screw heads are hidden 
on the fi nal installation. Apply seal-
ant "Mill-Pac" to inner pipe and high 
temp silicone sealant or "Mill-Pac" 
to outer pipe on every joint.

 c)  Before connecting the fl ue pipe to 

the  fl ue termination, slide the black 
decorative wall thimble cover over 
the fl ue pipe, then slide the Wall 
Penetration Heat Shield (Part # 
946-202) over the fl ue pipe. Diagram 
3.

 d)  Slide the appliance and fl ue assem-

bly towards the wall carefully insert-
ing the fl ue pipe into the riser vent 
terminal assembly. It is important 
that the fl ue pipe extends into the 
Riser Vent Backing Plate a suffi cient 
distance so as to result in a minimum 
pipe overlap of 1-1/4 inches. Secure 
the connection between the fl ue pipe 
and the fl ue cap by attaching the two 
sheet metal strips extending from 
the Riser Vent Backing Plate into the 
outer wall of the fl ue pipe. Use two 
aluminum screws provided to con-
nect the strips to the pipe section. 
Bend any remaining portion of the 
sheet metal strip back towards the 
fl ue cap and cut off any excess, it will 
be concealed by the decorative wall 
thimble cover. See diagram 5.

8)  Slide the decorative wall thimble up to the 

wall surface being careful not to scratch the 
paint.  See diagram 5.

9)  Back outside: Apply sealant to the 4" inner 

fl ue and slide the Riser Vent Front into the 
Backing Plate and fasten with 8 screws.

10) Seal around the outer edge of the Riser 

Vent Backing Plate.
