Installation and care tips

- Position the collar to sit flush against the wall or ceiling penetration, then secure according to your local code requirements (fasteners or clamps appropriate for the surface).
- Use a compatible sealant rated for chimney and vent applications around the collar joint to enhance moisture resistance. Do not substitute non-rated sealants that could compromise UL compliance.
- Store the collar in its boxed packaging until installation to prevent scratches to the aluminum finish.
