USE OF SEALANT
Sealant is required on vent system joints(figure 7), except Metal-Fab Sure-Seal direct vent system
joints. On longer vent runs, especially vertical runs, sealant will ensure that the combustion air enters
from outdoors, and not through the vent joints. Use high temperature sealant, available from local
suppliers, on the inner pipe joint, applying the sealant around the outside of the male part of the vent.
A bead of silicone should be used on the outside of the joint after assembly to seal the supply air. If
the venting is disconnected for servicing, be sure to follow above instructions for resealing venting
A minimum clearance to combustibles must be maintained around the vent pipe of 1"
Un dégagement minimum aux matériaux combustibles doit être maintenu autour du
tuyau de 1 "sur toutes les canalisations horizontales et verticales fonctionne
when reconnecting to system.
