8" diameter pipe. However, if desired, use 1/
4-inch long sheet metal screws for 3" through 8"
diameter pipe. Never penetrate the inner liner
with screws. For 10" through 16" diameter pipe,
Simpson Dura-Vent recommends using a mini-
mum of (4) 3/8" sheet metal screws per joint, and
a minimum of (6) 3/8" sheet metal screws per
joint for 18" and larger diameters. Each Pipe
Section is labelled, and an arrow shows the
direction of the exhaust flow. For ceiling sup-
ported installations, place a Pipe Section, or
assembled Pipe Sections, through the hole in the
Square Firestop Support, and tighten the Clamp. The Clamp will rest inside
the Ceiling Support, and prevent the Pipe Sections from dropping down. The
Pipe Section(s) should protrude a minimum of one inch below the ceiling. An
optional Pipe Collar is available for decorative purposes.

Vent as a complete dedicated system from the flue collar of the appliance to the
termination of the vent to the outside atmosphere. Simpson Dura-Vent’s listed
