WALL AND CEILING PROTECTION

FOR SAFEAND PROPER OPERATION OF THE STOVE, FOLLOW THE VENTING INSTRUCTIONS EXACTLY.

HORIZONTAL INSTALLATION

VERTICAL INSTALLATION

This application occurs when venting through an ex- terior wall. FIGURES 5, 6, & 13. Having deter- mined the air terminal loca- tion, cut and frame a hole in an exterior wall with a mini- mum square or round open- ing of 9". (As an alternative to framing, a vent pipe shield may be installed, en- suring a 1" clearance to

combustibles. See Figure 12.)

THE STOVE PIPE MUST RISE ¼" PER FOOT OF RUN.

1.Mark and cut the vent pipe shield to the determined depth of the combustible wall. Apply a bead of caulking (not supplied) to the framework or to the shield plate (in the case of a finished wall) and secure the shield through the opening to the interior wall. The final location of the vent pipe shield should maintain the required clearance to the 7" vent pipe. Do not fill this cavity with any type of material.

FIGURE 13

Apply a bead of caulking all around and place a firestop spacer over the vent shield to restrict cold air from being drawn into the room or around the stove. Ensure that both spacer and shield maintain the required clearance to com- bustibles. Once the vent pipe is installed in its final posi- tion, apply sealant between the pipe and the firestop spacer.

This application occurs when venting through a roof. FIGURE 4. Installation kits for various roof pitches are avail- able from your Continental dealer. See Accessories to or- der the specific kit required.

1.Determine the air ter- minal location and move the stove into position.

	Cut and frame 9 inch	FIGURE 14
	openings in the ceiling	FIGURE 14
	openings in the ceiling
	and the roof to provide the
	minimum 1 inch clear-
	ance between the stove
	pipe and any combustible
	material. Try to center the
	exhaust pipe location
	midway between two joist
	to prevent having to cut
	them. Use a plumb bob
	to line up the center of the
	openings.

Do not fill this space with any type of material.

A vent pipe shield will prevent any materials such as insu- lation, from filling up the 1" air space around the pipe. FIGURE 16. Nail headers between the joist for extra sup- port.

2.Apply a bead of caulking (not supplied) to the frame- work or to the Wolf Steel vent pipe shield plate or equivalent (in the case of a finished ceiling), and secure over the open- ing in the ceiling. FIGURE 15. A firestop must be placed on the bottom of each framed opening in a roof or ceiling that the venting system passes through. FIGURE 14. Apply a bead of caulking all around and place a firestop spacer over the vent shield to restrict cold air from being drawn into the room or around the stove. Ensure that both spacer and shield maintain the required clearance to combustibles. Once the vent pipe is installed in its final position, apply sealant between the pipe and the firestop spacer.

3.In the attic, after the pipe has been installed, slide the vent pipe collar down to cover up the open end of the shield and tighten. This will prevent any ma- terials, such as insulation, from filling up the 1" air space around the pipe.
