3.0 VENTING

RISK OF FIRE, MAINTAIN SPECIFIED AIR SPACE CLEARANCES TO VENT PIPE AND APPLIANCE.

IF VENTING IS INCLUDED WITH SPACERS THE VENT SYSTEM MUST BE SUPPORTED EVERY 3 FEET

FOR BOTH VERTICAL AND HORIZONTAL RUNS. USE SUPPORTS OR EQUIVALENT

NON-COMBUSTIBLE STRAPPING TO MAINTAIN THE REQUIRED CLEARANCE FROM

COMBUSTIBLES. USE WOLF STEEL LTD. SUPPORT RING ASSEMBLY W010-0370 OR EQUIVALENT

NON-COMBUSTIBLE STRAPPING TO MAINTAIN THE MINIMUM CLEARANCE TO COMBUSTIBLES

FOR BOTH VERTICAL AND HORIZONTAL RUNS. SPACERS ARE ATTACHED TO THE INNER PIPE AT

PREDETERMINED INTERVALS TO MAINTAIN AN EVEN AIR GAP TO THE OUTER PIPE. THIS GAP IS
REQUIRED FOR SAFE OPERATION. A SPACER IS REQUIRED AT THE START, MIDDLE AND END OF

EACH ELBOW TO ENSURE THIS GAP IS MAINTAINED. THESE SPACERS MUST NOT BE REMOVED.

For safe and proper operation of the fi replace follow the venting instruction exactly. Deviation from the minimum
vertical vent length can create diffi culty in burner start-up and/or carboning. Under extreme vent confi gurations,
allow several minutes (5-15) for the fl ame to stabilize after ignition. Provide a means for visually checking the vent
connection to the fi replace after the fi replace is installed. Use a fi restop, vent pipe shield or attic insulation shield
when penetrating interior walls, fl oor or ceiling.

!

WARNING

This fi replaces uses 8” exhaust / 10” air intake vent pipe system.

Refer to the section applicable to your installation.

NOTE: If for any reason the vent air intake system is disassembled; reinstall per the instructions provided
for the initial installation.

3.1 VENTING LENGTHS AND COMPONENTS

For vent systems that provide seals on the inner exhaust fl ue, only the outer air intake joints must be sealed
using a red high temperature silicone (RTV). This same sealant may be 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
fi replace fl ue collar which must be sealed using the black high temperature sealant Mill Pac.

When using Wolf Steel venting components, use only approved Wolf Steel fl exible components with the
following termination kits: wall terminal kit GD622R, or 1/12 to 7/12 pitch roof terminal kit GD610, 8/12 to 12/12
roof terminal kit GD611 or fl at roof terminal kit GD612. With fl exible venting, in conjunction with the various
terminations, use either the 5 foot vent kit GD620 or the 10 foot vent kit GD630.

For optimum fl ame appearance and fi replace 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 minimum allowable vertical vent length is 3 feet maximum allowable vertical vent length is 40 feet. The
maximum number of allowable 8” vent connections is three horizontally or vertically (excluding the fi replace and
the air terminal connections).

When venting, the horizontal run must be kept to a minimum of 36“ or a maximum of 20 feet. If a 20 foot
horizontal run is required, the fi replace must have a minimum vertical rise immediately off the fi replace of 57”.
When terminating vertically, the vertical rise is a minimum 36“ and a maximum 40 feet above the fi replace.

7.3A

For optimum performance, it is recommended that all horizontal runs have a minimum 1/4” rise per foot.
Provide a means for visually checking the vent connection to the fi replace after the fi replace is installed.
Do not allow the inside liner to bunch up on horizontal or vertical runs and elbows. Keep it pulled tight.
A 3/4” air gap between the inner and outer liner all around is required for safe operation. Use a fi restop
when penetrating interior walls, fl oor or ceiling.

A

THE FIRESTOP ASSEMBLY MUST BE INSTALLED WITH THE VENT SHIELD TO THE TOP.

TERMINALS MUST NOT BE RECESSED INTO A WALL OR SIDING MORE THAN THE DEPTH OF THE

RETURN FLANGE OF THE MOUNTING PLATE.

This application occurs when venting through an exterior wall.
Having determined the correct height for the air terminal
location, cut and frame a hole in the exterior wall as
illustrated to accommodate the fi restop assembly.
Dry fi t the fi restop assembly before proceeding to
ensure the brackets on the rear surface fi t to the
inside surface of the horizontal framing.

The length of the vent shield may be cut shorter
for combustible walls that are less than 8 1/2” thick
but the vent shield must extend the full depth of the
combustible wall.

4.1.2 VERTICAL INSTALLATION

This application occurs when venting through a roof. Installation kits for
various roof pitches are available from your authorized dealer / distributor. See
accessories to order specifi c kits required.

A. Determine the air terminal location, cut and frame a square opening as

illustrated in the ceiling and the roof to provide the minimum 1“ clearance
between the vent pipe and any combustible material. Try to center the vent
pipe location midway between two joists to prevent having to cut them. Use
a plumb bob to line up the center of the openings. A vent pipe shield will
prevent any materials such as insulation, from fi lling up the 1” air space
around the pipe. Nail headers between the joist for extra support.

B. Apply a bead of caulking (not supplied) to the framework or to the Wolf

Steel vent pipe shield plate or equivalent (in the case of a fi nished
ceiling), and secure over the opening in the ceiling. A fi restop 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
fi restop spacer over the vent shield to restrict cold air from being drawn into the
room or around the fi replace. Ensure that both spacer and shield maintain the
required clearance to combustibles. Once the vent pipe is installed in its fi nal
position, apply sealant between the pipe and the fi restop assembly.

C. 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 fi lling up the 1” air space
around the pipe.

4.2.1 HORIZONTAL AIR TERMINAL INSTALLATION

A. Stretch the inner fl ex pipe to the required length

taking into account the additional length needed for
the fi nished wall surface. Apply a heavy bead of the
high temperature sealant W573-0007 Mill Pac (not
supplied) to the inner sleeve of the air terminal. Slip
the vent pipe a minimum of 2” over the inner sleeve
of the air terminal and secure with 6 #8 screws.

B. Using the outer fl ex pipe, slide over the outer

combustion air sleeve of the air terminal and secure
with 6 #8 screws. Seal using high temperature
sealant W573-0002 (not supplied).

C. Insert the vent pipes through the fi restop

maintaining the required clearance to
combustibles. Holding the air terminal (lettering
in an upright, readable position), secure to the
