!WARNING

The vent system must be supported approximately every 3 feet for both vertical and horizontal runs. Use supports or equivalent non-combustible strapping to maintain the 1" clearance from combustibles. Use Wolf Steel Ltd. vent spacers W615-0033 every 18" and at the start, middle and end of each elbow to maintain the minimum 1 1/4" clearance between the 4" flexible vent pipe and the 7" rigid vent pipe. These spacers must not be removed. Use Wolf Steel Ltd. support ring assembly W010-0370 or equivalent non-combustible strapping to maintain the minimum clearance to combustibles

for both vertical and horizontal runs.

3.Insert the vent pipe through the firestop / vent pipe shield. Holding the air terminal (lettering in an upright, readable position), secure to the exterior wall. Make weather tight by sealing with caulking (not supplied).

4.If more than one length of vent pipe needs to be used to reach the stove, couple them together as illustrated in FIGURE 25. Seal the joints using the same procedure as described above.

The air terminal mounting plate may be recessed into the exterior wall or siding by 1½", the depth of the return flange.
