DuraSeal FLEX FOR SS ONLY
*IMPORTANT NOTE
When installing DuraSeal Flex, the direction of exhaust flow is always
from the appliance. There is an arrow printed on each section of liner and
component that will point in the direction of the exhaust gas. If the inner
liner is installed correctly the proper direction can be determined by running
your fingernails up the inside wall of the liner. If the direction is correct, your
na ils will catch at the seams of the inner wall. If it is incorrect, your nails will
slide smoothly across the inner surface.
