EXTENDED HORIZONTAL AND CORNER
AIR TERMINAL INSTALLATION
1. Follow the instructions | FIGURE 30 |
for "Horizontal Air Terminal |
|
Installations", items 1 to 3. |
|
2.Continue adding components alternating 4" and 7" vent pipes. Ensure
that all 4" vent pipes and elbows have sufficient vent spacers attached and each component is securely fastened to the one prior. Attach the 4" telescopic sleeve to the vent run.
Repeat using a 7" telescopic sleeve.
Secure and seal as before. To facilitate completion, attach 4" and 7" couplers to the air terminal.
3.Install the air terminal. See item 3 of the Horizontal Air Terminal Installation. Extend the 4" telescopic sleeve; connect to the air terminal connector. Fasten with self tapping screws and seal. Repeat using the 7" telescopic sleeve.
VERTICAL VENTING INSTALLATION
REAR VENT APPLICATION: Attach 4" and 7" elbows to the fireplace. Secure with 3 screws and seal the joints and screw heads using high temperature sealant. Proceed to step 1 below.
TOP VENT APPLICATION:
1.Move the fireplace into position.
2.Fasten the roof support to the roof using the screws provided.The roof support is optional. 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
4.Apply high temperature sealant

If the attic space is tight, we recommend threading the Wolf Steel vent pipe collar or equivalent loosely onto the air terminal connecter /
vent pipe assembly as it is passed through the attic. The air terminal connector must be located vertically and plumb.

6. Remove nails from the shingles, above and to the sides of the chimney. Place the flashing over the air terminal connector and slide it underneath the sides and upper edge of the shingles. Ensure that the air terminal connector is properly centered within the flashing, giving a 3/4" margin all around. Fasten to the roof. Do NOT nail through the lower portion of the flashing. Make
7.Aligning the seams of the terminal and air terminal connector, place the terminal over the air terminal connector making sure the vent pipe goes into the hole in the terminal. Secure with the three screws provided.
8.Apply a heavy bead of weatherproof caulking 2" above the flashing. Note: Maintain a minimum 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
9.Continue adding rigid vent pipe sections, sealing and securing as above. Attach a 4" collapsed telescopic sleeve to the last section of rigid piping. Secure with screws and seal. Repeat using a 7" telescopic sleeve.
10.REAR VENT APPLICATION: Run a bead of high temperature sealant around the outside of the 4" elbow. Pull the adjustable pipe a minimum 2" onto the elbow. Secure with 3 screws. Repeat with the 7" telescopic pipe.
TOP VENT APPLICATION: Run a bead of high temperature sealant
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 filling up the 1" air space around the pipe.
RESTRICTING VERTICAL VENTS
Vertical termination installations exiting either from the rear or the top flue collar of the fireplace may display a very active flame. If this appearance is not desirable, the vent exit must be restricted to reduce the velocity of the exhaust gases, thus slowing down the flame pattern and creating a more traditional gentle appearance. Remove the baffle plate from the rear wall of the firebox, exposing the flue gas outlet opening. Superimpose this outlet hole with the smaller hole on the kit restrictor plate. Secure with the two screws provided and replace the baffle plate.
