Assemble Minimum Installation (MI) Sections MI sections are non-unitized so that they can be cut to a specifi c length. Cut these sections to length from the non- expanded end (see Figure 2.9). They can then be attached by fi rst connecting the expanded end of the MI inner fl ue with the inner pipe from the adjacent pipe section and securing with three screws. The expanded portion of the MI inner fl ue must overlap completely with the unexpanded end of the adjacent pipe section. The outer fl u

Secure the Vent Sections Vertical sections of pipe must be supported every 8 ft after the 25 ft maximum unsupported rise. The vent support or plumber’s strap (spaced 120° apart) may be used to do this (see Figures 2.12 and 2.13). Horizontal sections of vent must be supported every 5 ft with a vent support or plumber’s strap. D. Disassemble Vent Sections To disassemble any two pieces of pipe, rotate either section (see Figure 2.14), so that the seams on both pipe sections are aligned (see F
