INSTALLATION

sions, in the same manner as shown in	1) Situate the chimney in a convenient loca-
diagram 10.	tion as near as possible to the appliance
	outlet. Cut and frame a hole in the roof for
	the support. The sides of this hole must be
	vertical with 1 1/4" clearance.
	2) Place the support in the opening. Lower it
	to the correct height as determined by the
	table and diagram below.

6)Twist lock the fl ue cap on to the last sec- tion.

Support Extensions - Round

(RDSE) or Square (SQSE)

Steep pitched cathedral ceilings may require the use of a support extension. This piece fi ts down inside the support and can be adjusted to increase the support's length by up to 22". The extension is attached to the support using the eight metal screws provided. Be sure there is at least a 2 inch overlap where the extension joins the support.

GAS CONNECTION

The gas connection is a 3/8" NPT 90o elbow. The gas line can be rigid pipe or to make in- stallation easier, use a listed fl exible connector and/or copper tubing if allowed by local codes. Since some municipalities have additional local codes it is always best to consult with your local authorities and the CAN/CGA B149

b)Any occupied areas above the fi rst fl oor, including closets and storage spaces, through which the vertical fl ue passes, must be enclosed.

CATHEDRAL CEILINGS

Round Support (RDS) & Square Support (SQS)

If your home has a cathedral ceiling (no attic space between the ceiling and the roof), install the chimney and support as follows.

Using a level, make sure the support is vertical. If the support extends above the roof, cut it fl ush with the top of the roof. Nailthesupporttotheframeopeningusing

(8) 3" spiral nails or #8 x 1-1/2" screws.

Note: If you are using a 6" square support you may find it difficult to screw it in place because it is fairly small inside.

Simpson Dura-Flue has provided angle brackets with this support which can be screwed to the outside of the support box and nailed to surrounding framing as required. Use a minimum of four #8 x 1/2" screws per bracket. In some cases these brackets may need to be trimmed (e.g.: to fit under a fl ashing). Place the Finish Collar around the support and fasten it to the ceiling using the screws provided.

3)Use appropriate roof fl ashing. Place the fl ashing under the upper shingles and on top of the lower shingles approximately half of the fl ashing should be under the shingles.

4)AssemblethedesiredlengthsofBlackPipe and Elbows necessary to reach from the appliance adaptor up through the support box and fl ashing to proper height as per Dia. 12, local codes or page 9. Ensure that all pipe and elbow connections are in their fully twist lock position.

5)Ensure fl ue is vertical and secure fl ashing to the roof with roofi ng nails. Slide the storm collar over the pipe section and seal with a mastic.

installation codes.

When using copper or fl ex connectors use only approved fi ttings. Always provide a union so that gas lines can be easily disconnected for burner and/or valve servicing. Flare nuts for copper lines and fl ex connectors are usually considered to meet this requirement.

Important:Always check for gas leaks with a soap and water solution or gas leak detector. Do not use open flame for leak testing.

Note: Prior to any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system that exceeds test pressures of 3.45 kPa, this appliance must be disconnected from the piping system. If test pres- sures equal to or less than 3.45 kPa are used then this appliance must be isolated from the piping system by closingitsindividualmanualshut-off valve during the testing.

The manifold pressure is controlled by a regu- lator built into the gas control, and should be checked at the pressure test point.
