Tape the inner and outer flue collars of the fireplace using UL approved metal adhesive tape to ensure the joints are sealed. Attach an appropriate length of vent pipe to the fireplace.

STEP 6

Measure the horizontal length requirement including a 2” (50mm) overlap, ie from the elbow to the outside wall face plus 2” (50mm) (or the distance required if install- ing a second 90° elbow). (Fig. 24)

Always install horizontal venting on a level plane.
