For vent systems that provide seals on the inner exhaust flue, only the outer air intake joints must be sealed using a red high temperature silicone (RTV). This same sealant maybe used on both the inner exhaust and outer intake vent pipe joints of all other approved vent systems except for the exhaust vent pipe connection to the fireplace flue collar which must be sealed using the black high temperature sealant Mill Pac. High temperature sealant must be ordered separately.

When using Wolf Steel venting components, use only the following vent kits: WALL TERMINAL KIT GD175 (7-1/2' of venting included), WALL TERMINAL KIT GD176 (24" of venting included), or 1/12 TO 7/12 PITCH ROOF TERMINAL KIT GD110, 8/12 TO 12/12 ROOF TERMINAL KIT GD111, FLAT ROOF TERMINAL KIT GD112 or STOVE PERISCOPE KIT GD180 (for wall penetration below grade) in conjunction with the appropriate venting components.

For optimum performance, it is recom- mended that all horizontal runs have a minimum ¼ inch rise per foot.

•For optimum flame appearance and stove performance, keep the vent length and number of elbows to a minimum.

•The air terminal must remain unobstructed at all times. Examine the air terminal at least once a year to verify that it is unobstructed and undamaged.

The maximum horizontal run with a 57 inch vertical rise im- mediately above the stove is 20 feet . FIGURES 6a-b.
