RIGID PIPE VENTING SYSTEMS

BASIC HORIZONTAL & VERTICAL TERMINATIONS

Rigid Pipe Vent Systems offer a complete line of
component parts for installation of both horizontal

in decorative black, as well as galvanized fi nish.

Horizontal Termination are:

1 AstroCap XL Termination Cap
1 90

1 Rigid

Adaptor

1 Wall

Thimble

1 Length of rigid pipe to suit wall thickness

1 Rigid

penetrate

roof

1 Ceiling

Firestop

1 Flashing
1 Storm

Wall thickness is measured from the back
standoffs to the inside mounting surface of
termination cap. For siding other than vinyl, furring
strips may be used, instead of a vinyl siding
standoff, to create a level surface to mount the
vent terminal. The Terminal must not be recessed
into siding. Measure the wall thickness including
furring strips.

If a Vinyl Siding Standoff is required (it must be
used with vinyl siding), measure to outside surface
of wall without siding and add 2 inches.

When using Rigid Vent other than

Simpson Dura-Vent, 3 screws must be

used to secure rigid pipe to adaptor.
