VENTING | WALL TERMINATION VENTING |
Before installing venting for this unit, the installer should read these instructions to insure that the proper vent confi guration has been selected.
Use only Town and Country Termination kits #: TCVT.WTA - Wall Termination Kit TCVT.RTA - Roof Termination Kit
Vent system components approved for use with the Town and Country Fireplace are shown in Figure #13.
Various combinations of vertical and horizontal runs may be used. Refer to # 17 and 18 for details. For optimum performance and fl ame appearance, keep the vent length to a minimum and limit the number of elbows. Connections between each vent system component must be tightly joined, secured with sheet metal screws and sealed. A horizontal run of vent should have a 1/4" rise for every 1 ft. of run towards the termination.
CAUTION: UNDER NO CONDITION SHOULD COMBUSTI- BLE MATERIAL BE CLOSER THAN 1 3/4 INCHES FROM THE TOP AND 1 3/4 INCHES FROM THE SIDES OF A HORIZONTAL SECTION AND 1 3/4 INCHES FROM THE VERTICAL SECTIONS OF THE VENT PIPE.
Exterior wall opening:
Determine the exact position of the fi replace so that the vent pipe is centred (if possible) between two building framing members. Consult your local building codes prior to proceed- ing. The vent kit will accommodate up to a maximum wall thickness of 12 inches.
1)Having determined the position of the fi replace, cut and frame a 14 1/2 inch opening centred at a minimum height of 68 1/2 inches above the fl oor. The opening may be round or square. Height of the opening will vary with each installation. As the horizontal vent run increases, so does the minimum vertical rise (see Fig. #17).
IMPORTANT: When locating the opening, it should be noted that vent terminal clearances must be maintained. See "Vent Terminal Clearances" section for proper clear- ances.
A minimum 2 foot length of pipe is required for any wall termi- nation. With this minimum vertical rise in combination with a 90° elbow, a maximum horizontal run of 18 inches is permitted (see Fig. #17 and 18). For longer horizontal runs greater than 18 inches, increase vertical rise appropriately.
The rise and run must be constrained to the boundaries of the chart shown in fi gure #17. The horizontal run of vent must have a 1/4" rise for every 1 ft. of run towards the termination.
