INSTALLATION

WALL AND CEILING PROTECTION

HORIZONTAL VENT SECTIONS: A minimum clearance of 2" all around the vent pipe in all horizontal runs to combustibles is required. Use fi restop spacer W010-1778 (supplied).

VERTICAL VENT SECTIONS: A minimum of 1" all around the vent pipe on all vertical runs to combustibles is required. Use fi restop spacer W500-0028 (not supplied).

VENT HEAT SHIELD INSTALLATION

The vent heat shield must be

FIGURE 15installed only when terminat- ing horizontally with no vertical

rise. Remove the two screws nearest the vent collars on the top of the fi replace. Align the vent heat shield (sup- plied) and secure. Adjust the vent heat shield to touch the fi restop spacer.

HORIZONTAL INSTALLATION

This application occurs when venting through an exterior wall. Having deter- mined the air terminal location, cut and frame a hole in an exterior wall. The recommended framed opening is 147/16" W x 161/4" H. See figure16.

FIGURE 16

ADJUSTABLE FIRESTOP INSTALLATION

Apply a bead of caulking all around and place the fi restop top, so that the vent shield covers the top of the vent within the opening.

NOTE: THE FIRESTOP ASSEMBLY MUST BE INSTALLED WITH THE VENT SHIELD TO THE TOP.

The length of the vent shield may be cut shorter for combustible walls that are less than 8 1/2" thick but the vent shield must extend the full depth of the combustible wall.

Place the fi restop bottom against the fi restop top and secure the two together. Adjust the assembly to ensure it is tight to the vent. Secure fi restop to wall. This restricts cold air from being drawn into the room or around the fi replace. Ensure that both spacer and shield maintain the required clearance to combustibles. Once the vent pipe is installed in its fi nal position, apply high temperature sealant W573-0002 (not supplied) between the pipe and the fi re- stop spacer. See figures 17a-c.

1.Determine the air terminal location, cut and frame

123/4" x 123/4" openings in the ceiling and the roof to provide the minimum 1" clearance between the fi replace pipe / liner and any

combustible material. Try

FIGURE 19

to centre the vent pipe loca-

 

tion midway between two

 

joist to prevent having to

 

cut them. Use a plumb bob

 

to line up the centre of the

 

openings. DO NOT FILL

 

THIS SPACE WITH ANY TYPE OF MATERIAL.

A vent pipe shield will

prevent any materials such as insulation, from fi lling up the 1" air space around the pipe. Nail headers between the joist for extra support.

2.Apply a bead of caulking (not supplied) to the framework or to the Wolf Steel vent pipe shield plate or equivalent (in the case of a fi nished ceiling), and secure over the opening in the ceiling. FIGURE 19. A firestop must be placed on the bottom of each framed opening in a roof or ceiling that the venting system passes through. Apply a bead of caulking all around and place a fi restop spacer over the vent shield to restrict cold air from being drawn into the room or around the fi replace. Ensure that both spacer and shield maintain the required clearance to combustibles. Once the vent pipe / liner is installed in its fi nal position, apply sealant between the pipe / liner and the fi restop spacer.
