How To

Step 1

Building Base

Stage 1
  • Start by connecting all the pieces in above diagram.
  • Side Outlet Tees (671-604HC) will go on one side and Side Outlet Elbows (672-804HC) will go on the other.
  • When sliding the pipe into the Side Outlet Tees (671-604HC) and Side Outlet Elbows (672-804HC) remember to not block the vertical holes.

Step 2

Stage 2
  • Take your base built in Stage 1 and place it upside down on top of your 8”x48” wood piece.
  • Mark your Offset Flange (679-904HC) and Double Tab Offset Flange (679-804HC) holes and mark the vertical holes where the Side Outlet Tees are.
  • Pre-drill your Flange 673-104HC)  holes and then drill a 1” hole where you marked the Side Outlet Tees (671-604HC). This is where the 24” pipe will go through.
  • The 1” hole will need to be 1.05 for the pipe to go through.
