VERTICAL VENTING INSTALLATION

1.Move the fi replace into position.

2.Fasten the roof support to the roof using the screws provided.

FIGURE 21. The roof support is optional. In this case the venting is to be adequately supported using either an alternate method suitable to the authority having jurisdiction or the optional roof support.

3.Apply high temperature sealant W573-0007 (not supplied) to the outer edge of the inner sleeve of the air terminal. Slip a 5" diameter coupler a minimum of 2" over the sleeve and secure using 3 screws.

4. Apply high temperature sealant

W573-0007 (not supplied) to the outer

FIGURE 29

edge of the of the outside sleeve of the air terminal. Slip a 8" diameter coupler over the sleeve and secure as before. FIGURE 25. Trim the 8" coupler even with the 5" coupler end.

5. Thread the air terminal pipe as- sembly down through the roof support and attach, ensuring that a minimum 16" of air terminal will penetrate the roof when fastened. FIGURE 23. If the attic space is tight, we recom- mend threading the Wolf Steel vent pipe collar or equivalent loosely onto the air terminal assembly as it is passed through the attic. FIGURE 29. The air terminal must be located vertically and plumb.

6.Remove nails from the shingles,

above and to the sides of the chim- ney. Place the fl ashing over the air terminal and slide it underneath the

sides and upper edge of the shingles. Ensure that the air terminal is properly centered within the fl ashing, giving a 3/4" margin all around. Fasten to the roof. Do NOT nail through the lower portion of the flashing. Make weather-tight by sealing with caulking. Where possible, cover the sides and top edges of the fl ashing with roofi ng material. FIGURE 23.

7.Aligning the seams of the terminal and air terminal connector, place the terminal over the air terminal connector making sure the inner sleeve goes into the hole in the terminal. Secure with the 3 screws provided.

8.Apply a heavy bead of weatherproof caulking 2" above the

ashing. Note: Maintain a minimum of 2" space between the air inlet base and the storm collar. Install the storm collar around the air terminal and slide down to the caulking. Tighten to ensure that a weather-tight seal between the air terminal and the collar is achieved.

9.Continue adding rigid venting sections, sealing and securing as above. Attach a 5" collapsed telescopic pipe to the last section of rigid piping. Secure with screws and seal. Repeat using a 8" telescopic pipe.

10.Run a bead of high temperature sealant W573-0007 (not sup- plied) Mill Pac around the outside of the 5" collar on the fi replace. Pull the adjustable pipe a minimum of 2" onto the collar. Secure with 3 screws. Repeat with the 8" telescopic pipe.

11.In the attic, slide the vent pipe collar down to cover up the open end of the shield and tighten. This will prevent any materials, such as insulation, from fi lling up the 1" air space around the pipe.

RESTRICTING VERTICAL VENTS

FIGURE 31

TOP OF THE

FIREBOX

RESTRICTOR PLATE

Vertical terminations may display a very active fl ame. As this appear- ance is not desirable, the vent exit must be restricted using restrictor plate, W500-0205. This reduces the velocity of the exhaust gases, slowing down the fl ame pattern and creating a more traditional ap- pearance.

Remove the two screws on either side of the exhaust collar inside the fi rebox. Install the plate as shown. Replace the screws.

GAS INSTALLATION

Proceed once the vent installation is complete.

NOTE: All gas connections must be contained within the fire- place when complete.

1.Move the fi replace into position and secure to the fl oor through the 1/4" holes located at either side of the base.

2.The fi replace is designed to accept 3/8" gas supply line. The

replace is equipped with a 3/8" manual shut-off valve.

3.Connect the gas supply in accordance to local codes. In the absence thereof, install according to the National Installation Code.

4.When fl exing any gas line, support the gas valve so that the lines are not bent or kinked.

5.Check for gas leaks by brushing on a soap and water solu-

tion.

DO NOT USE OPEN FLAME.

Purge all gas lines with the glass door of the stove removed. Assure that a continuous gas flow is at the burner before re- installing the door.

OPTIONAL WALL SWITCH

INSTALLATION

For ease of accessibility, an optional remote wall switch may be

installed in a convenient location. A 20’ length of millivolt wire is

connected to the gas valve for the wall switch. However if a greater length is required route 2-strand (solid core) millivolt wire through the electrical hole located at the bottom left side of the unit. The recom- mended maximum lead length depends on wire size:

WIRE SIZE

MAX. LENGTH

14 gauge

100 feet

16 gauge

60 feet

18 gauge

40 feet

Attach the two leads to terminals 1 and 3 located on the gas valve.
