WITH VERTICAL

TERMINATION

(Rigid Vent Systems)

Note: A clearance of 2"(51mm) must be maintained; except when passing through a wall, ceiling, or at the termination where the use of a firestop or wall thimble reduces the required clearance to 1-1/2" (38mm). We recommend framing a 11"(279mm) x 11"(279mm) (inside dimensions) hole to give structural rigidity for mounting the termination.

1)Maintain the 2" (51mm)

clearances (air spaces) t o c o m bu s t i bl e s w h e n passing through ceilings, walls, roofs, enclosures, attic rafter, or other nearby combustible surfaces. Do not pack air spaces with insulation. Check "Venting Arrangement

-Vertical Termination" section for the maximum

ve r t i c a l r i s e o f t h e venting system and the maximum horizontal offset limitations.

2)Set the gas appliance in its desired location. Drop a plumb bob

down from the ceiling

 

to the position of the

 

appliance flue exit,

 

and mark the location

 

where the vent will

 

penetrate the ceiling.

 

Drill a small hole at

 

his point. Next, drop

 

a plumb bob from

 

the roof to the hole

 

previously drilled in

 

the ceiling, and mark

 

the spot where the

Diagram 2

vent will penetrate the roof.Determine if ceiling joists, roof rafters or other framing will obstruct the venting system. You may wish to relocate the appliance or to offset, as shown in Diagram 2 to avoid cutting load bearing members.

3)A Firestop spacer must be installed in the floor or ceiling of every level.

4)Assemble the desired lengths of pipe and elbows. Ensure that all pipes and elbow connections are in the fully twist-locked position and sealed.

Note:

For best results and optimum performance with each approved venting system, it is highly recommended to apply “Mill-Pac” sealant (supplied) to every inner pipe connec- tion. Failure to do so may result in drafting or performance issues not covered under warranty. Silicone (red RTV) is optional.

5)Cut a hole in the roof centered on the small drilled hole placed in the roof in Step 2. The hole should be of sufficient size to meet the minimum requirements for clearance to combustibles of 1-1/2"(38mm).Slip the flashing under the shingles (shingles should overlap half the flashing) as per Diagram 4.

Diagram 4: The upper half of the flashing is installed under the roofing material and not nailed down until the chimney is installed.

This allows for small adjustments.

6)Continue to assemble pipe lengths.

Note: If an offset is necessary in the attic to avoid obstructions, it is important to support the vent pipe every 3 feet (0.9 meter), to avoid excessive stress on the elbows, and possible separation. Wall straps are available for this purpose

(Diagram 2).

Note that for steep roof pitches, the vertical height must be increased.

A poor draft, or down drafting can result from high wind conditions near big trees or adjoining roof lines, in these cases, increasing the vent height may solve the problem.

7)Ensure vent is vertical and secure the base of the flashing to the roof with roofing rails, slide storm collar over the pipe section and seal with a mastic.

8)Install the vertical termination cap by twist- locking it.

Note: Any closets or storage spaces, which the vent passes through must be enclosed.
