5.Remove nails from the shingles, above and to the sides of the chimney. Place the flashing over the air termi- nal and slide it underneath the sides and upper edge of the shingles. Ensure that the air terminal is properly centred within the flashing, giving a 3/4" margin all around. Fasten to the roof. Do not nail through the lower portion of the flashing. Make
6.Apply a heavy bead of weatherproof caulking 2 inches above the flashing. Slide the storm collar around the air terminal and down to the caulking. Tighten to ensure that a

7.If more liner needs to be used to reach the fireplace, couple them together as illustrated. The vent system must be supported approximately every 3 feet for both vertical and horizontal runs. Use noncombustible strapping to maintain a clearance to combustibles of 1".
FIREPLACE VENT CONNECTION1.Install the 4 inch diameter aluminium flexible liner to the fireplace. Secure with 3 screws and flat washers. Seal the joint and screw holes using the high temperature seal- ant provided.
2.Install the 7 inch diameter aluminium flexible liner to the fireplace. Attach and seal the joints.

1.Move the fireplace into po- sition. Measure the vent length required between terminal and fireplace taking into account the
additional length needed for the finished wall surface and any 1¼" overlaps between venting components.
2.Apply high temperature sealant to the outer edge of the 4" inner collar of the fireplace. Attach the first vent component and secure using 3 self tapping screws. Repeat using 7" piping.
3.Holding the air terminal (lettering in an upright, readable position), insert into both vent pipes with a twisting motion to ensure that both the terminal sleeves engage into the vent pipes and sealant. Secure the terminal to the exterior wall and make weather tight by sealing with caulking (not supplied).
The air terminal mounting plate may be recessed into the exterior wall or siding by 1½", the depth of the return flange.
EXTENDED HORIZONTAL AND CORNERAIR TERMINAL INSTALLATION1.Follow the instructions for "Horizontal Air Terminal In- stallations", items 1 to 3.
2.Continue adding components alternating inner and outer venting. Ensure that all 4" venting and elbows have sufficient vent spacers attached and each component is securely fastened to the one prior. Attach the 4" telescopic
sleeve to the vent run. | AIR TERMINAL | FIGURE 34 | |
