8WALL AND CEILING PROTECTION

For safe and proper operation of the stove, follow the venting instructions exactly.

HORIZONTAL INSTALLATION: when venting through an exterior wall. FIGURES

4, 5, & 11. Having deter- mined the air terminal lo- cation, cut and frame a hole

in an exterior wall with a minimum square or round opening of 9". (As an alter-

native to framing, a vent pipe shield may be in-

stalled, ensuring a 1" clear- ance to combustibles. See Figure 12.)

For optimum performance, the stove pipe should rise ¼" per foot of run.

1.Mark and cut the vent pipe shield to the determined depth of the combustible wall. Apply a bead of caulking (not supplied) to the framework or to the shield plate (in the case of a finished wall) and secure the shield through the opening to the interior wall. The final location of the vent pipe shield should maintain the required clearance to the 7" vent pipe. Do not fill this cavity with any type of material. Apply a bead of caulking all around and place a firestop spacer over the vent shield to restrict cold air from being drawn into the room or around the stove. Ensure that both spacer and shield maintain the required clearance to combustibles. Once the vent pipe is installed in its final position, apply sealant between the pipe and the firestop spacer.

DO NOT FILL THIS SPACE WITH ANY TYPE OF MATERIAL.

A vent pipe shield will prevent any materials such as insu- lation, from filling up the 1" air space around the pipe. FIGURE 15. Nail headers between the joist for extra sup- port.

2.Apply a bead of caulking (not supplied) to the frame- work or to the Wolf Steel vent pipe shield plate or equiva- lent (in the case of a finished ceiling), and secure over the opening in the ceiling. FIGURE 14. A firestop must be placed on the bottom of each framed opening in a roof or ceiling that the venting system passes through. FIGURE 13. Apply a bead of caulking all around and place a firestop spacer over the vent shield to restrict cold air from being drawn into the room or around the stove. Ensure that both spacer and shield maintain the required clearance to combustibles. Once the vent pipe is installed in its final position, apply sealant between the pipe and the firestop

spacer.
