Initial Installation

QUALIFIED INSTALLERS ONLY

Vertical Installation:

1.Check the instructions for required clearances (air spaces) to combustibles when passing through ceilings, walls, roofs, enclosures, attic rafters, or other nearby combustible surfaces. Do not pack air spaces with insulation.

2. Set the gas appliance in the 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 this point. Next, drop a plumb bob from the roof to the hole previously drilled in the ceiling, mark the spot where the 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, to avoid cutting load bearing members.

3.To install the Round Support Box/Wall Thimble in a flat ceiling, cut a 10” square hole in the ceiling, centered in the hole drilled in Step 2. Frame the hole as shown in Figure 30.

4. Assemble the desired lengths of black pipe and elbows necessary to reach from the appliance adapter up through the Round Support Box. Insure that all pipe and elbow connections are in their fully twist-locked position.

5.Cut hole in the roof centered on the small hole placed in the roof from Step 2. The hole should be of sufficient size to meet minimum requirements for Clearance to Combustibles, as specified. Continue to assemble lengths of pipe and elbows necessary to reach from the ceiling
