WARNING

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 3FT

(0.9m) 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.

THIS APPLIANCE USES A 4” (101.6mm) EXHAUST / 7” (177.8mm) AIR INTAKE VENT PIPE SYSTEM.

Refer to the section applicable to your installation.

For safe and proper operation of the appliance 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 appliance after the appliance is installed. Use a fi restop, vent pipe
shield or attic insulation shield when penetrating interior walls, fl oor or ceiling.

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

7.1B

W415-1103 / A / 08.07.13

3.1 VENTING LENGTHS AND COMPONENTS

Use only Wolf Steel, Simpson Dura-Vent, Selkirk Direct Temp, American Metal Amerivent or Metal-Fab venting
components. Minimum and maximum vent lengths, for both horizontal and vertical installations, and air terminal
locations for either system are set out in this manual and must be adhered to. For Simpson Dura-Vent, Selkirk Direct
Temp, American Metal Amerivent and Metal-Fab follow the installation procedure provided with the venting components.

A starter adaptor must be used with the following vent systems and may be purchased from the corresponding supplier:

PART 4”/7” SUPPLIER WEBSITE

Duravent W175-0053 Wolf Steel www.duravent.com

Amerivent 4DSC-N2 American Metal www.americanmetalproducts.com

Direct Temp 4DT-AAN Selkirk www.selkirkcorp.com

SuperSeal 4DNA Metal-Fab www.mtlfab.com

For Simpson Dura-Vent, Selkirk Direct Temp, American Metal Amerivent and Metal-Fab follow the installation
procedure found on the website for your venting supplier.

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 appliance fl ue collar which must

When using Wolf Steel venting components, use only approved Wolf Steel rigid / fl exible components with the following
termination kits: wall terminal kit GD222R, or 1/12 to 7/12 pitch roof terminal kit GD110, 8/12 to 12/12 roof terminal kit
GD111, fl at roof terminal kit GD112 or periscope kit GD201 (for wall penetration below grade). With fl exible venting, in
conjunction with the various terminations, use either the 5 foot (1.5m) vent kit GD220 or the 10 foot (3.1m) vent kit GD330.

For optimum flame appearance and appliance 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.
Rigid and fl exible venting systems must not be combined. Different venting manufacturer components must not
be combined.

These vent kits allow for either horizontal or vertical venting of the appliance. The maximum allowable horizontal run is
20 feet (6.1m). The maximum allowable vertical vent length is 40 feet (12.2m). The maximum number of vent connections
is two horizontally or three vertically (excluding the appliance and the air terminal connections) when using fl exible venting.

Horizontal runs may have a 0” (0mm) rise per foot/meter however for optimum performance it is recommended
that all horizontal runs have a minimum 1” (25.4mm) rise per foot/meter using fl exible venting. For safe and proper
operation of the appliance, follow the venting instructions exactly.

A terminal shall not terminate directly above a sidewalk or paved driveway which is located between two single family
dwellings and serves both dwellings. Local codes or regulations may require different clearances.
Do not allow the inside liner to bunch up on horizontal or vertical runs and elbows. Keep it pulled tight. A 1¼”
(31.8mm) air gap all around between the inner liner and outer liner is required for safe operation.

ENSURE TO UNPACK ALL LOOSE MATERIALS FROM INSIDE THE FIREBOX PRIOR TO HOOKING UP

THE GAS AND ELECTRICAL SUPPLY.

IF YOUR APPLIANCE IS SUPPLIED WITH A REMOTE ENSURE THE REMOTE RECEIVER IS IN THE

“OFF” POSITION PRIOR TO HOOKING UP THE GAS AND ELECTRICAL SUPPLY TO THE APPLIANCE.

FOR SAFE AND PROPER OPERATION OF THE APPLIANCE, FOLLOW THE VENTING INSTRUCTIONS

EXACTLY.

ALL INNER EXHAUST AND OUTER INTAKE VENT PIPE JOINTS MAY BE SEALED USING EITHER RED

RTV HIGH TEMP SILICONE SEALANT W573-0002 (NOT SUPPLIED) OR BLACK HIGH TEMP MILL PAC

W573-0007 (NOT SUPPLIED) WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE APPLIANCE EXHAUST FLUE COLLAR

WHICH MUST BE SEALED USING MILL PAC.

IF USING PIPE CLAMPS TO CONNECT VENT COMPONENTS, 3 SCREWS MUST ALSO BE USED TO

ENSURE THE CONNECTION CANNOT SLIP OFF.

DO NOT CLAMP THE FLEXIBLE VENT PIPE.

RISK OF FIRE, EXPLOSION OR ASPHYXIATION. IMPROPER SUPPORT OF THE ENTIRE VENTING

SYSTEM MAY ALLOW VENT TO SAG AND SEPARATE. USE VENT RUN SUPPORTS AND CONNECT

VENT SECTIONS PER INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS.

RISK OF FIRE, DO NOT ALLOW LOOSE MATERIALS OR INSULATION TO TOUCH THE VENT PIPE.

REMOVE INSULATION TO ALLOW FOR THE INSTALLATION OF THE ATTIC SHIELD AND TO

MAINTAIN CLEARANCES TO COMBUSTIBLES.

68.2B

For clearances to combustible materials from the vent pipe, see “FRAMING” section.

For optimum performance it is recommended that all horizontal runs have a minimum 1” (25mm) rise per foot
when using fl exible venting.

4.1 WALL AND CEILING PROTECTION

!

DO NOT FILL THE SPACE BETWEEN THE VENT PIPE AND ENCLOSURE WITH ANY TYPE OF

MATERIAL. DO NOT PACK INSULATION OR COMBUSTIBLES BETWEEN CEILING FIRESTOPS.

ALWAYS MAINTAIN SPECIFIED CLEARANCES AROUND VENTING AND FIRESTOP SYSTEMS.

INSTALL WALL SHIELDS AND FIRESTOPS AS SPECIFIED. FAILURE TO KEEP INSULATION OR

OTHER MATERIALS AWAY FROM VENT PIPE MAY CAUSE FIRE.

WARNING

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”
(215.9mm) thick but the vent shield must extend the
full depth of the combustible wall.

A. Apply a bead of caulking (not supplied) around the corner edge of
the inside surface of the fi restop assembly, fi t the fi restop assembly

to the hole and secure using the 4 screws (supplied in your manual
baggie).

B. Once the vent pipe is installed in its fi nal position, apply high

temperature sealant W573-0007 (not supplied) between the
pipe and the fi restop.

NOTE: The framing dimension may be reduced to a 9 1/2” (241mm) square opening if the vent length,
from the appliance to the framed hole, is 24” (610mm) or greater. If not, it is recommended to use a
terminal extension plate, W500-0103, when mounting the air terminal.

4.1.2 VERTICAL SHIELDING

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” (25mm)
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”
(25mm) 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” (25mm) air
space around the pipe.

A. Move the appliance into position.
B. Fasten the roof support to the roof using the screws provided. The

roof support is optional. In this case the venting is to be adequately
supported using either an alternate method suitable to the authority
having jurisdiction or the optional roof support.

C. Apply high temperature sealant W573-0007 (not supplied) to the

outer edge of the inner sleeve of the air terminal. Slip the inner
coupler a minimum of 2” (50.8mm)over the sleeve and secure using
3 screws.

D. Apply high temperature sealant W573-0002 (not supplied) to the

outer edge of the of the outside sleeve of the air terminal connector.
Slip the outer coupler over the sleeve and secure as before. Trim the
outer coupler even with the inner coupler end.

E. Thread the air terminal connector / vent pipe assembly down

through the roof support and attach, ensuring that a minimum 16”
(406.4mm) of air terminal connector will penetrate the roof when fastened. If the attic space is tight,
we recommend threading the Wolf Steel vent pipe collar or equivalent loosely onto the air terminal
connector / vent pipe assembly as it is passed through the attic. The air terminal connector must be
located vertically and plumb.

F. Remove nails from the shingles, above and to the sides of the air terminal

connector. Place the fl ashing over the air terminal connector and slide it
underneath the sides and upper edge of the shingles. Ensure that the air
terminal connector is properly centered within the fl ashing, giving a 3/4”
(19.1mm) margin all around. Fasten to the roof. Do NOT nail through the lower
portion of the fl ashing. Make weather-tight by sealing with caulking. Where
possible, cover the sides and top edges of the fl ashing with roofi ng material.

G. Apply a heavy bead of waterproof caulking 2” (50.8mm) above the fl ashing. Install the storm collar

around the air terminal and slide down to the caulking. Tighten to ensure that a weather-tight seal
between the air terminal connector and the collar is achieved.

H. Continue adding rigid venting sections, sealing and securing as above. Attach the inner collapsed

telescopic sleeve to the last section of rigid piping. Secure with screws and seal. Repeat using the
outer telescopic sleeve.

I. Run a bead of high temperature sealant W573-0007 (not supplied) around the outside of the inner

collar on the appliance. Pull the telescopic sleeve a minimum of 2” (50.8mm) onto the collar. Secure
with 3 screws. Repeat with the outer telescopic sleeve.
