VENT INSTALLATION

VERTICAL (THROUGH-THE-ROOF) APPLICATIONS

This Gas Fireplace has been approved for,

Vertical installations up to 40' (12m) in height. Up to a 10' (3m) horizontal vent run can be installed within the vent system using a maximum of two 90° elbows. See Figure 28.

NOTE: Horizontal sections of this vent system require a minimum of 3" clearances to combustibles at the top of the flue and 1" clearance at the sides and bottom until the flue penetrates the outside wall. A minimum 1" clearance all around the flue is acceptable at this point of penetration.

Vertical sections of this vent system require a minimum of

Up to two 45° elbows may be used within the horizontal run. For each 45° elbow used on the horizontal plane, the maximum horizontal length must be reduced by 18" (450mm).

Example: Maximum horizontal length No elbows = 10’ (3m)

1x45° elbows = 8.5’ (2.6m) 2x45° elbows = 7’ (2.1m)

A minimum of an 8' (2.5m) vertical rise is required.

Two sets of 45°elbows offsets may be used within the vertical sections. From 0 to a maximum of 8' (2.5 m) of vent pipe can be used between elbows. See Figure 29.

The maximum angular variation allowed in the system is 270°. See Figure 29.
