HORIZONTAL VENTING INSTALLATION

This application occurs when venting through a roof.

Installation kits for vari- ous roof pitches are available from your Na- poleon dealer. See Ac- cessories to order the specific kit required.

FIGURE 20

FOR SAFE AND PROPER OPERATION OF THE STOVE, FOLLOW THE VENTING INSTRUCTIONS EXACTLY.

FOR HORIZONTAL RUNS, BOTH WOLF STEEL AND SIMPSON DURA-VENT VENTING COMPONENTS MAY HAVE A 0" RISE PER FOOT.

FOR OPTIMUM PERFORMANCE IT IS RECOM- MENDED THAT ALL HORIZONTAL RUNS HAVE A MINIMUM ¼ INCH RISE PER FOOT.

1.Determine the air terminal location and move the stove into position. Cut and frame 9 inch openings in the ceiling and the roof to provide the minimum 1 inch clearance be- tween the stove pipe and any combustible material. Try to

center the exhaust pipe location midway be- tween two joist to pre-

FIGURE 21vent having to cut them. Use a plumb bob to line

up the center of the openings.

DO NOT FILL THIS SPACE WITH ANY TYPE OF MATERIAL.

A vent pipe shield will prevent any materials such as insu- lation, from filling up the 1" air 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 equiva- lent (in the case of a finished ceiling), and secure over the opening in the ceiling. A firestop must be placed on the bottom of each framed opening in a roof or ceiling that the venting system 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 stove. Ensure that both spacer and shield maintain the required clearance to combustibles. Once the vent pipe is installed in its final position, apply sealant between the pipe and the firestop spacer.

3.In the attic, after the pipe has been installed, slide the vent pipe collar down to cover

up the open end of the shield and tighten. This will prevent any materials, such as insulation, from filling up the 1" air space around the pipe.

1.Stretch the 4" diameter aluminum flexible liner to the required length taking into account the additional length needed for the finished wall surface.

Spacers are attached to the 4" inner flex liner at predeter- mined intervals to maintain a 1-1/4" air gap to the 7" outer stove pipe. These spacers must not be removed.

Slip a 4" diameter length of aluminum flexible liner a mini- mum of 2" over the inner sleeve of the air terminal. Secure to the sleeve using 3 screws. Seal the joint and screw heads using the high temperature sealant provided.

2.Slip the first section of 7" diameter stove pipe a mini- mum of 2" over the outer sleeve of the air terminal. Secure to the sleeve using 3 screws. Seal the joint and screw heads using high temperature sealant.

3.Insert the liners through the firestop / vent pipe shield. Holding the air terminal (lettering in an upright, readable position), secure to the exterior wall. Make weather tight by sealing with caulking (not supplied). The air terminal mount- ing plate may be recessed (up to 3/4" maximum) into the exterior wall or siding.

4.If more than one length of liner needs to be used to reach the stove, couple them together as illustrated in FIGURE 24. Seal the joints using the same procedure as described above.

The vent system must be supported approximately every 10 feet along a horizontal run. Use supports or equivalent non-combustible strapping to maintain the 1" clearance from combustibles.
