INSTALLATION THROUGH SIDE OF MASONRY CHIMNEY
(Fig. Nº 19)
NOTE: Follow L-Vent chimney manufacturer’s instructions.
•
Position the stove, adhering to the clearances in figure Nº 11. Mark the center of the hole where the pipe is to pierce the
masonry chimney. It will be necessary to break out the masonry around the location of the pipe center mark. Use a 4-inch
diameter hole for 3-inch pipe and 5-inch diameter hole for a 4-inch pipe.
•
Measure and build chimney top plate. Cut out holes for chimney pipe, and if used cut necessar
holes for the outside air pipe. Install the tee on the bottom of the vertical pipe system and lower it
down the chimney until the center branch of the tee is level with the center of the hole in the masonry, as shown in
Figure Nº19.
•
Install and seal the top plate from step 3 with non-hardening mastic. Slip the storm collar over the
pipe, and while holding the pipe at the proper elevation, affix the collar with a minimum of three
1/4” stainless steel sheet metal screws. Seal all joints and seams around the collar.
•
Connect the horizontal pipe by pushing it through the hole in the masonry and lining it up with
the branch in the tee. Push the pipe into the tee while twisting it to lock it into the tee. If desired,
once the horizontal pipe is in place, the space between the pipe and masonry may be filled with
high-temperature grout.
•
If desired, once the horizontal pipe is in place, the space between the pipe and masonry may be filled with
high-temperature grout.
•
Install the trim collar. An adjustable pipe length and adapter may be needed to finish the connection
to the stove.
