USING RIGID VENT COMPONENTS
HORIZONTAL AIR TERMINAL INSTALLATION
1.Move the fireplace into position. Measure the vent length required between terminal and fireplace taking into account the additional length needed for the finished wall surface and any 1¼" overlaps between venting components.
2.Apply high temperature sealant
3.Holding the air terminal (lettering in an upright, readable posi- tion), insert into both vent pipes with a twisting motion to ensure that both the terminal sleeves engage into the vent pipes and sealant. Secure
the terminal to the

EXTENDED HORIZONTAL AND CORNER
AIR TERMINAL INSTALLATION
1.Follow the instructions for "Horizontal Air Terminal Installations", items 1 to 3.
2.Continue adding components alternating inner and outer venting. Ensure that all exhaust vent-
ing and elbows have sufficient vent spacers attached and each component is securely fastened to the one prior. Attach the exhaust
telescopic sleeve to the vent run. Repeat using a air intake vent pipe telescopic sleeve. Secure and seal as before. To facilitate completion, attach exhaust and air intake vent pipe couplers to the air terminal.
3. Install the air terminal. See item 3 of the Horizontal Air Terminal Installation. Extend the
exhaust telescopic sleeve; connect to the air terminal assembly. Fasten with self tapping screws and seal. Repeat using the air intake vent pipe telescopic sleeve.
VERTICAL VENTING INSTALLATION
For safe and proper operation of the fireplace, follow the venting instructions exactly.
All inner exhaust and outer intake vent pipe joints may be sealed using either high temperature sealant
1.Move the fi replace into position.
2.Fasten the roof support to the roof using the screws provided. FIGURE 56. The roof support is optional. In this case the venting is to be adequately supported using either an alternate method suit- able to the authority having jurisdiction or the optional roof support.
3.Apply high temperature sealant
3 screws.
4. Apply high temperature sealant to the outer edge of the of the outside pipe of the air terminal connector. Slip a coupler over the air intake collar and secure as before. Trim the air intake coupler even with the exhaust coupler end.
5. Thread the air terminal connector / pipe assembly down through the roof support and attach, ensuring that the air terminal will penetrate the roof a minimum 16" when fastened. If the attic space is tight, we recommend threading
the Wolf Steel vent pipe collar or equiva-
lent loosely onto the air terminal assembly as it is passed through the attic. The air terminal must be located vertically and plumb.
6.Remove nails from the shingles, above and to the sides of the chimney. 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 fl ashing. Make
fl ashing with roofi ng material.
7.Align the seams of the terminal and air terminal connector, place the terminal over the air terminal connector making sure the inner pipe goes into the hole in the terminal. Secure with screws provided.
8.Apply a heavy bead of weatherproof caulking 2" above the
flashing. 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
9. Continue adding rigid venting sections, sealing and securing as above. Attach an exhaust telescopic sleeve to the last section of rigid piping. Secure with screws and seal. Repeat using an air intake telescopic sleeve.
10. REAR VENT APPLICATION: (BGD36CF(G) ONLY: Before attaching elbows to the collars on the back of the fireplace, 1½" will need to be trimmed off the exhaust pipe collar.)
Run a bead of high temperature sealant
the outside of the air intake collar. Attach the air intake elbow to the air intake collar and secure with 3 screws. Pull the exhaust
telescopic sleeve a minimum 2"
onto the elbow. Secure with 3 screws. Repeat with the air intake telescopic sleeve.
TOP VENT APPLICATION: Run a bead of high temperature seal- ant
11.In the attic, slide the vent pipe collar down to cover up the open end of the vent pipe shield and tighten. This will prevent any ma- terials, such as insulation, from fi lling up the 1" air space around the pipe.
