Begin the vent system installation by selecting the type of venting
to be installed and the path that it will take. Verify that clearances
are met throughout the path of the venting system.
Determine how the vent system will be terminated out the side of
the house or through the roof. Verify clearances for the termination.
When selecting a vent system for use with the fireplace, refer to
the “Special Vent Systems” section in this manual to determine
what systems are acceptable. Check all clearances and venting
components. Identify if any problems existing in the vent system.
Use
Figure 33
on Page 22 for venting to eliminate issues after
installation. Check pipe diameter on vent system and fireplace to
verify the size is the same.
NOTICE
:
All outer connection joints must be sealed with aluminum
tape, screws or silicone sealant rated above 300°F/149°C. The inner
flue joints do not require any sealant.
