C. Constructing the Appliance Chase

A chase is a vertical box-like structure built to enclose the gas appliance and/or its vent system. In cooler climates the vent should be enclosed inside the chase.

NOTICE: Treatment of ceiling restops and wall shield restops and construction of the chase may vary with the

type of building. These instructions are not substitutes for the requirements of local building codes. Therefore, you MUST check local building codes to determine the requirements to these steps.

Chases should be constructed in the manner of all outside walls of the home to prevent cold air drafting prob-

lems. The chase should not break the outside building envelope in any manner.

Walls, ceiling, base plate and cantilever oor of the chase should be insulated. Vapor and air inltration barriers

should be installed in the chase as per regional codes for

the rest of the home. Additionally, in regions where cold air inltration may be an issue, the inside surfaces may be sheetrocked and taped (or an equivalent method may be used) to achieve maximum air tightness.

To further prevent drafts, the wall shield and ceiling restops should be caulked with caulk with a minimum of 300 ºF continuous exposure rating to seal gaps. Gas line holes and other openings should be caulked with caulk with a minimum of 300 ºF continuous exposure rating or stuffed with unfaced insulation. If the appliance is being

installed on a cement surface, a layer of plywood may be placed underneath to prevent conducting cold up into the

room.

NOTICE: Install appliance on hard metal or wood surfaces extending full width and depth. DO NOT install directly on carpeting, vinyl, tile or any combustible material other than wood.

WARNING! Risk of Fire! Maintain specied air space

clearances to appliance and vent pipe:

• Insulation and other materials must be secured to prevent

accidental contact.

E. Measuring Standards

Vertical and horizontal measurements listed in the vent

diagrams were made using the following standards:

• Pipe measurements are shown using the effective length

of pipe. See Section 12.A for information on effective length of pipe components.

• Horizontal terminations are measured to the outside

mounting surface (ange of termination cap). See Figure 4.6.

• Vertical terminations are measured to top of last section of pipe. See Figure 4.7.

• Horizontal pipe installed level with no rise.

MEASURE TO SHADED SURFACE (OUTSIDE MOUNTING SURFACE)

Figure 4.6 Measure to Outside Mounting Surface

Figure 4.7. Measure to Top of Last Section of Pipe

Majestic • QUARTZ32, QUARTZ36 Installation Manual • 2412-980 Rev. L • 7/17

F. Use of Flex Vent (SLP-FLEX Series 6-5/8

Inch)

The ex vent must be supported with the spacing between

support intervals not exceeding 4 feet, with no more than

1/2 inch sag between supports.

A support is required at each change in venting direction, and in any location where it is necessary to maintain the

necessary clearance to combustibles. A simple “up and out” installation (Figure 4.8) requires only enough support to maintain the necessary clearance to combustibles. However, the vent attachment point and the restop location are considered to be supports.

General Rules:

• SUBTRACT 3 ft. from the total H measurement for each 90º elbow installed horizontally.

• SUBTRACT 1-1/2 ft. from the total H measurement for each 45º elbow installed horizontally.

• Rear Vented: A maximum of three 90º elbows (or six 45º elbows) may be used in any vent conguration. Some elbows may be installed horizontally. See Figure 4.23 and 4.24.

• Top Vented: A maximum of four 90º elbows (or eight 45º elbows) may be used in any vent conguration. Some elbows may be installed horizontally. See Figure 4.16 and 4.17.

• Elbows may be placed back to back anywhere in the system.

• Any 90º elbow may be replaced with two back to back

45º elbows.

• When penetrating a combustible wall, a wall shield

restop must be installed.

• When penetrating a combustible ceiling, a ceiling restop must be installed.

• Horizontal runs of vent do not require vertical rise;

horizontal runs may be level.

• Horizontal termination cap should have a 1/4 inch

downward slant to allow any moisture in cap to be

released. See Figure 4.9.

Note: If installing a vertical vent/termination off the top of the appliance, the optional vertical termination bafe may be needed.

Exhaust restrictor Instructions

Exhaust restrictors are recommended for these verti-

cally terminated products which have excessive draft.

Exhaust restrictors will compensate for high draft, and

restore visual ame height. If the vent conguration has

a total vertical of 15-60 feet, an exhaust restrictor may

be needed. The exhaust restrictor can be located in the appliance manual bag.

1. Install the exhaust restrictor over the center of the ex-

haust outlet in the rebox. See Figure 4.14.

2. Center the exhaust restrictor in the open end of the

exhaust outlet and secure through the slots on the

exhaust restrictor with the two 1/4 in. self-tapping screws provided in the appliance manual bag.

V1 = 60 ft. Max. (18.3 m)

To access the exhaust openings, remove the

exhaust bafe. To remove exhaust bafe, remove the two wing nuts.
