USING FLEXIBLE VENT COMPONENTS
Use only approved aluminum flexible liner kits marked:
"Wolf Steel Approved Venting" as identified by the stamp only on the 8” outer liner.
HORIZONTAL AIR TERMINAL INSTALLATION
1.Cut or frame a hole in an exterior wall with a minimum round or square opening of 121/2" W x 121/2" H. Secure the firestop spacer over the opening to the interior wall.
Secure the terminal to the terminal extension plate (see fig- ure 19).
2.Stretch the 5" diameter aluminum flexible liner to the required length taking into account the additional length needed for the finished wall surface. Slip the liner a mini- mum of 2" over the inner sleeve of the air terminal and se- cure with 3 #8 screws. Apply a heavy bead of the high tem- perature sealant
3.Using the 8" diameter flexible aluminum liner, slide over the outer combustion air sleeve of the air terminal and se- cure with 3 #8 screws. Seal as before.
FIGURE 17
For safe and proper operation of the fireplace, follow the venting instructions exactly.
All inner exhaust and outer intake vent pipe joists may be sealed using either Red RTV high temp silicone seal- ant or Black high temp Mill Pac with the exception of the fireplace exhaust flue collar which must be sealed using Mill Pac (not supplied).
4.Insert the liners through the firestop maintaining the required clearance to combustibles. Secure to the exterior wall and make weather tight by sealing with caulking (not supplied).
5.Apply a heavy bead of the high temperature sealant, not supplied with the unit, to the inside of the 5" liner approxi- mately 1" from the end. Slip the liner a minimum of 2" over the fireplace vent collar and secure with 3 #8 screws.
6.Using the 8" diameter flexible aluminium liner, apply seal- ant, slide a minimum of 2" over the fireplace combustion air collar and secure with 3 #8 screws.
VERTICAL AIR TERMINAL INSTALLATION
1. Fasten the roof support to the | FIGURE 19 | |
roof using the screws provided. | ||
| ||
The roof support is optional. |
| |
In this case the venting is to |
| |
be adequately supported |
| |
using either an alternate |
| |
method suitable to the au- |
| |
thority having jurisdiction |
| |
or the optional roof sup- |
| |
port. |
|
2.Stretch the 5" diameter aluminium flexible liner to the required length. Slip the liner a minimum of 2" over the inner sleeve of the air terminal and secure with 3 #8 screws. Seal using a heavy bead of the high temperature sealant (W573- 0007 not supplied).
3.Repeat using 8" diameter aluminium flexible liner.
4.Thread the air terminal pipe
| assembly down through the | FIGURE 20 |
| roof. The air terminal must be |
|
| located vertically and plumb. At- |
|
| tach the air terminal assembly |
|
FIGURE 18 | to the roof support, ensuring that |
|
a minimum 16" of air terminal |
| |
|
| |
| will penetrate the roof when fas- |
|
| tened. |
