and seal with a non-hardening sealant, as shown in Figure 17. Seal all nail
heads.
5. Height. Add sufficient Pipe Sections of B-Vent until the system
terminates 1-1/2" to 3" above the collar of the Flashing as shown in Figure 16.
6. Top Cone. Slip the Top Cone over the Flashing, so the vertical straps
on the Flashing coincide with the slots at the base of the Cone. Slip the straps
up through the slots as shown in
Figure 18. Adjust the Top Cone to
a generally vertical position.
Holding the Top Cone in position,
bend the straps down as shown.
7. This completes the
installation. Conduct a final
inspection of the job to insure
proper joints, correct procedures,
sealed nail heads, etc.
ADJUSTABLE ELBOWS
1. Purpose. This section fur-
nishes supplemental information
concerning Adjustable Elbows, both 90° and 45°/60°.
2. Connections. In addition to twist locking the elbows, the connection may
be further secured by using sheet metal screws at the joint where the male and
female parts overlap, provided that the screws do not penetrate the inner liner
as shown in Figure 19. One screw per joint is normally sufficient. Use #8 Pan
Head sheet metal screws which are no longer
than 1/4 inch. Liberal use of Wall Straps for
additional support is recommended. Do not
allow the weight of the offsetting pipe to bear
down on lower elbow.
3. 90° Elbows. Figure 20. The installer
should apply pressure to the section at the
points indicated by the arrows. This will
prevent the adjacent sections of the elbow
from turning, as the next pipe or fitting is
twist-locked on. This is important, because
once these sections start rotating, the elbow
