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 4 inch (102mm) fireplace starting collar.

Make sure that the fireplace rope gasket supplied with the fireplace seals between the first 6-5/8 inch (168mm) 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 6-5/8 inch (168mm) outer pipe line up, rotate the pipe section clockwise about one-quarter (1/4) turn. The vent pipe is now locked together.

2. Continue Adding Vent Components

Continue adding vent components, locking each succeed- ing component into place.

Ensure that each succeeding vent component is secure- ly fitted and locked into the preceding component in the vent system.

90° elbows may be installed and rotated to any point around the preceding component’s vertical axis. If an el- bow does not end up in a locked position with the preced- ing component, attach with a minimum of two (2) 1/2” sheet metal screws.
