venting requirements

!

• Risk of fi re. Maintain specifi ed air space clearances to vent pipe and appliance.

• The vent system must be supported every 3’(0.9m) for both vertical and horizontal runs. Use support ring
assembly W010-0067 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 spaces must
not be removed.

EN

This appliance uses a 5” (127mm) exhaust / 8” (203.2mm) air intake vent pipe system. Refer to the
section applicable to your installation.

For safe and proper operation of the appliance follow the venting instructions 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. Although not a requirement,

it is recommended for vent lengths that pass through unheated spaces (attics, garages, crawl spaces) be
insulated with the insulation wrapped in a protective sleeve to minimize condensation. 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.

The vent terminal may be painted with a high temperature paint to match exterior colours. Use an outdoor paint
suitable for 400°F (200°C). Application and performance of paint is the consumer’s responsibility. Spot testing is

recommended.

note:

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

This appliance must be installed with a continuous connection of exhaust and air intake vent pipes. Utilizing
alternate constructions, such as a chimney as part of the vent system, is not permitted.

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, clearances from
vent pipes to combustibles and air terminal locations as set out in this manual apply to all vent systems 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:

WARNING

3.0 rough framing

Do not put objects in front of the appliance

(minimum distance of 4 feet)*

note:

When using optional fi nishing accessories, the framing dimensions and fi nishing materials may differ from
what is outlined in the section below; refer to the leafl et instructions supplied in the accessory kit for specifi c
framing and fi nishing specifi cations.

• Risk of fi re!

• In order to avoid the possibility of exposed insulation or vapour barrier coming in contact with the appliance
body, it is recommended that the walls of the appliance enclosure be “fi nished” (i.e. drywall / sheetrock),
as you would fi nish any other outside wall of a home. This will ensure that clearance to combustibles is
maintained within the cavity.

• Do not notch the framing around the appliance stand offs. Failure to maintain air space clearance may cause
over heating and fi re. Prevent contact with sagging or loose insulation or framing and other combustible
materials. Block opening into the chase to prevent entry of blown-in insulation. Make sure insulation and
other materials are secured.

• When constructing the enclosure, allow for fi nishing material thickness to maintain clearances. Framing or
fi nishing material closer than the minimums listed must be constructed entirely of non-combustible materials.
Materials consisting entirely of steel, iron, brick, tile, concrete, slate, glass or plasters, or any combination
thereof are suitable. Materials that are reported as passing ASTM E136, standard test method for behaviour
of materials in a vertical tube furnace at 1382ºF (750ºC) and UL763 shall be considered non-combustible
materials.

• Minimum clearance to combusibles must be maintained or a serious fi re hazard could result.

• The appliance requires a minimum enclosure height. Measure from the appliance base.

• If steel stud framing kits with cement board are provided, or specifi ed in the installation instructions, they
must be installed.

• If specifi ed in the installation instruction, fi nishing must be done using a non-combustible board, ceramic tile,
marble, etc. Do NOT use wood or drywall. Any fi re rated drywall is not acceptable.

WARNING

• Ensure to unpack all loose materials from inside the fi rebox prior to connecting the gas and electrical supply

• If your appliance is supplied with a remote, ensure the remote receiver is in the “OFF” position prior
to connecting the gas and electrical supply to the appliance.

• For safe and proper operation of the appliance, follow the venting instructions exactly.

• The appliance exhaust fl ue collar must be sealed using Mill Pac. All exhaust and intake vent pipe joints
must be sealed using red RTV high temp silicone sealant (W573-0002) (not supplied) or black high temp Mill
Pac (W573-0007) (not supplied).

• If using pipe clamps to connect rigid vent components, a minimum of 3 screws must also be used to ensure
the connection cannot slip off.

• Do not clamp the fl exible vent pipe.

• Risk of fi re, 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 fi re, 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.

• Do not fi ll the space between the vent pipe and enclosure with any type of material. Do not pack insulation
or combustibles between ceiling fi restops. Always maintain specifi ed clearances around venting and fi restop
systems. Install wall shields and fi restops as specifi ed. Failure to keep insulation or other materials away from
vent pipe may cause fi re.

• The fi restop 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 fl ange 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.

note:

Do not fi ll the air space between the fi restop spacer and the
exterior wall with any type of insulating material (i.e. spray foam).

A. Apply a bead of caulking (not supplied) around the outer edge of

various roof pitches are available from your authorized dealer / distributor.
See the “accessories” section 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 red RTV
silicone (W573-0002) (not supplied) 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.
