For ProTech Systems FasNSeal Stainless
Steel Vent Pipe
no cleaning fluid is required. For
3” vent pipe runs on 2, 3, 4 and 5 section boilers
begin by locating the FasNSeal Ametek Adapter
(part #FSAMETEK) over the boiler’s induced
draft blower. Continue the vent pipe run with 3”
FasNSeal vent pipe.
For 6 and 7 section boilers begin by locating the
FasNSeal Ametek Adapter (part #FSAMETEK)
over the boiler’s induced draft blower. Then connect
a FasNSeal 3” to 4” increaser (part #FS341) to the
3” adapter outlet. Continue the vent pipe run with
4” FasNSeal vent pipe. Other than the Ametek
Adapter and increaser fitting,
DO NOT
use 3”
vent pipe on 6 or 7 section boilers. FasNSeal vent
pipe is joined and sealed by the use of an internal
sealing gasket and a locking band on the female
end of each vent pipe.
All components should be examined for possible
shipping damage prior to installation. Align all vent
pipe seams and orient upward in all horizontal
applications. Adjustable vent lengths are available for
4” diameter vent piping. For 3” diameter vent piping,
square cut male end at the desired length. For 2, 3,
4 and 5 section boilers using the VH-1-3” vent hood,
connect the FasNSeal Vent to the VH-1-3” vent hood
using FasNSeal Adapter #FSC-DUN-3. This adapter
has no internal sealing gasket.
Apply high temperature silicone in an even
¼” bead approximately ¼” from the end of the
vent hood’s connecting vent pipe. Also, run a
similar size bead of silicone sealant down the
seam weld of the vent pipe. Then push the
female end over the vent hood’s connecting
vent pipe. Now fill in the channel inlet with
silicone sealant. Do not try to insert the joiner
band, instead fasten the vent pipe to the vent
hood’s pipe with a steel gear clamp.
1. Apply the high temperature silicone around
the male end of the pipe in an even ¼” bead.
Silicone bead should be approximately ¼”
from the end of the male end. Also, run a
similar size bead of silicone sealant down
the seam weld at the end of each joint.
2. The seams on the vent pipe should
be aligned and oriented upward in all
horizontal vent pipe runs.
3. Insert the male end of one into the female
end of the other. Push the pipe together so
the female end rests up against the stop
bead of the male end.
4. Insert a StaR-Joiner Band into the inlet of the
beaded channel. Feed the Joiner Band in so
it makes its way around the pipe, back to the
channel inlet and it overlaps itself by about
½
”.
5. Cut the excess Joiner Band so it lays flat in the
beaded channel. Fill the inlet of the beaded
channel with high temperature silicone.
Smooth out the silicone over the channel inlet
and the silicone between the female end and
the stop bead of the male end.
6. Horizontal venting shall have a slope not
less than ¼” (6.4mm) every 12 inches
(305mm) downward away from the boiler
to prevent collection of condensate throughout
the assembly.
7. Allow the sealant to cure for 24 hours before
operating the appliance.
To attach the adapter to the vent hood, crimp
the 3” vent hood pipe, apply a ¼” bead of high
temperature red silicone sealant around the
outside of the vent hood’s crimped connecting pipe
and a similar bead of high temperature silicone
around the inside of the FasNSeal adapter. After
pressing the two pipes together and tightening the
locking band, finish creating a complete seal by
filling the FasNSeal adapter’s notched hole with
high temperature silicone.
For 6 and 7 section boilers using the VH-1 - 4” vent
hood, an adapter is not required. The 4” FasNSeal
vent pipe connects directly to the VH-1- 4” vent
hood, and is joined and sealed by the internal
gasket and locking band.
