INSTALLATION
WALL AND CEILING PROTECTION
FOR SAFE AND PROPER OPERATION OF THE FIRE- PLACE, FOLLOW THE VENTING INSTRUCTIONS EXACTLY.
A 2” CLEARANCE IS REQUIRED AROUND THE
VENT PIPE.
HORIZONTAL INSTALLATION
This application occurs when venting through an exterior 
wall. Having determined the air 13" terminal location, cut and frame
a hole in an exterior wall. The recommended framed opening
is 147/16" W x 13" H with a mini- mum 121/2" round or square opening inside a finished wall.
See figure15.
1. Mark and cut the vent pipe 
shield to the determined depth of
the combustible wall. Apply a bead of caulking (not supplied) to the framework or
to the shield plate (in the case of a finished wall) and secure the shield through the opening to the interior wall. The final location of the vent pipe shield should maintain the required clearance to the 8" vent pipe / liner. (See note above). Do not fill this cavity with any type of material. Apply a bead of caulk- ing all around and place a firestop spacer over the vent shield to restrict cold air from being drawn into the room or around the fireplace. Ensure that both spacer and shield maintain the required clearance to combustibles. Once the vent pipe / liner is installed in its final position, apply sealant be- tween the pipe / liner and the firestop spacer.

1.Determine the air terminal location, cut and frame
147/16" W x 13" H openings in the ceiling and the roof to pro- vide the minimum 2 inch clearance between the fireplace pipe / liner and any combustible material. Try to centre the exhaust pipe location midway between two joist to prevent having to cut them. Use a plumb bob to line up the centre of the openings. DO NOT FILL THIS SPACE WITH ANY TYPE OF MATERIAL.
A vent pipe shield will prevent any materials such as insulation, from
filling up the 1" air FIGURE 16 space around the
pipe. Nail headers between the joist for extra support.
2.Apply a bead of caulking (not supplied) to the frame- work or to the Wolf Steel vent pipe shield plate or equivalent (in the case of a finished ceiling), and secure over the open- ing in the ceiling. A firestop must be placed on the bottom of each framed opening in a roof or ceiling that the venting sys- tem passes through. Apply a bead of caulking all around and place a firestop spacer over the vent shield to restrict cold air from being drawn into the room or around the fire- place. Ensure that both spacer and shield maintain the re- quired clearance to combustibles. Once the vent pipe / liner is installed in its final position, apply sealant between the pipe
/liner and the firestop spacer.
