B. Installing Vent Components

1.Attach the First Vent Component to the Starting Collars

To attach the first vent component to the starting collars of the fireplace:

•Apply a 3/8 inch (9.5mm) bead of stove cement around the 5 inch (127mm) fireplace starting collar.

•Make sure that the fireplace rope gasket supplied with the fireplace seals between the first 8-5/8 inch (219mm) vent component and the outer fireplace wrap.

•Lock the vent components into place by sliding the con- centric pipe sections with four (4) equally spaced interior beads into the fireplace collar or previously installed com- ponent end with four (4) equally spaced indented sections.

•When the internal beads of each 8-5/8 inch (219mm) outer pipe line up, rotate the pipe section clockwise about one-quarter (1/4) turn. The vent pipe is now locked together.

•The first 90° elbow installed in the vent system of a rear venting fireplace MUST BE in a vertical position.
