VERTICAL VENTING INSTALLATION

1. Fasten the roof

support to the roof us-

 

ing the screws pro-

 

vided. The roof support

 

is optional. In this case

 

the venting is to be ad-

 

equately supported us-

 

ing either an alternate

 

method suitable to the

 

authority having juris-

 

diction or the optional

 

roof support.

 

2.Slip a 4" diameter length of aluminum flexible liner a minimum of 2" over the inner sleeve of the air terminal.

FIGURE 26 Secure to the sleeve using 3 screws and flat washers.Seal the joint and screw heads using high temperature sealant. Repeat using a 7" diameter length of rigid piping.

If the attic space is tight, we rec- ommend adding sufficient lengths of 7" rigid piping, secured and sealed as necessary.

3.Thread the air terminal pipe assembly down through the roof support and attach, ensuring that a minimum 16" of air terminal will penetrate the roof when fastened. The air terminal must be located vertically and plumb.

4.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 ter- minal is properly centered within the flashing, giving a 3/4" margin all around. Fasten to the roof. Do NOT nail through the lower portion of the

FIGURE 27flashing. Make weather-tight by seal- ing with caulking.

Where possible, cover the sides and top edges of the flash- ing with roofing material.

5.Apply a heavy bead of waterproof caulking 2 inches above the flashing.

Slide the storm collar around the air terminal and down to the caulking. Tighten to ensure that a weather-tight seal between the air terminal and the collar is achieved. Attach the other storm collar centered between the air intake and air exhaust slots onto the air terminal. Tighten securely.

6.Attach the vertical rain cap.

7.In the attic, 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.

STOVE VENT CONNECTION

1.Attach the adjustable pipe to the last section of rigid piping. Secure with screws and seal.

2.Install the 4" aluminum flexible liner to the stove. Se- cure with 3 screws and flat washers. Seal the joint and screw holes using the high temperature sealant provided.

3.Run a bead of high temperature sealant around the inside of the air intake collar. Pull the adjustable pipe a minimum 2" into the air intake collar.

ENSURE THAT THE SEALANT IS NOT VISIBLE ON THE EXTERIOR PIPES ONCE INSTALLATION IS COMPLETED. AN OPTIONAL DECORATIVE BRASS BAND IS AVAILABLE FOR THIS USE. (STANDARD WITH A GD175 KIT). IN THE EVENT THAT THE VENTING MUST BE DISASSEMBLED, CARE MUST BE TAKEN TO RESEAL THE VENTING.

MOBILE HOME INSTALLATION

In Canada, mobile home installation may be vented hori- zontally or vertically. In the United States, it may only be installed vertically. See "Vertical Venting" or "Horizontal Air Terminal Installation" for installation.

For mobile home installations, the fireplace must be fas- tened in place. It is recommended that the fireplace be secured in all installations. Use the leveling/securing kit, GDSLL-KT for this purpose.
