EXTENDED HORIZONTAL AND CORNER
AIR TERMINAL INSTALLATION
1. Follow the instructions for "Horizontal Air Terminal Installations", items 1 to 3.
2. Continue adding components alternating inner and outer venting. Ensure that all exhaust
venting and elbows have suffi cient vent spacers attached and each component is securely
fastened to the one prior. Attach the exhaust telescopic sleeve to the vent run. Repeat using
a air intake vent pipe telescopic sleeve. Secure and seal as before. To facilitate completion,
attach exhaust and air intake vent pipe couplers to the air terminal.
3. Install the air terminal. See item 3 of the Horizontal Air Terminal Installation. Extend the
exhaust telescopic sleeve; connect to the air terminal assembly. Fasten with self tapping
screws and seal. Repeat using the air intake vent pipe telescopic sleeve.

For safe and proper operation of the fi replace, follow the venting instructions exactly.
All inner exhaust and outer intake vent pipe joints may be sealed using either high temperature sealant W573-0002 or high
temperature Mill Pac W573-0007 with the exception of the fi replace exhaust fl ue collar which must be
sealed using Mill Pac (not supplied).
1. Move the fi replace into position.
2. Fasten the roof support to the roof using the screws provided. FIGURE 56. 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.
3. Apply high temperature sealant W573-0002 (not supplied) to the outer edge of the inner end of the air termi-
nal connector. Slip a coupler a minimum of 2" over the exhaust collar and secure using 3 screws.
4 . Apply high temperature sealant to the outer edge of the of the outside pipe of the air terminal connector. Slip
a coupler over the air intake collar and secure as before. Trim the air intake coupler even with the exhaust coupler end.
5 . Thread the air terminal connector / pipe assembly down through the roof support and attach, ensuring that the air terminal will
penetrate the roof a minimum 16" when fastened. If the attic space is tight, we recommend threading the Wolf Steel vent pipe collar
or equivalent loosely onto the air terminal assembly as it is passed through the attic. The air terminal must be located vertically
and plumb.
6. Remove nails from the shingles, above and to the sides of the chimney. Place the fl ashing over the air terminal and slide it under-
neath the sides and upper edge of the shingles. Ensure that the air terminal is properly centered within the fl ashing, giving a 3/4" mar-
gin 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.
7. Align the seams of the terminal and air terminal connector, place the terminal over the air terminal connector making sure the inner
pipe goes into the hole in the terminal. Secure with screws provided.
8. Apply a heavy bead of weatherproof caulking 2" above the fl ashing. NOTE: Maintain a minimum of 2" space between the air
inlet base and the storm collar. 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 and the collar is achieved.
9. Continue adding rigid venting sections, sealing and securing as above. Attach an exhaust telescopic sleeve to the last section of
rigid piping. Secure with screws and seal. Repeat using an air intake telescopic sleeve.

10. REAR VENT APPLICATION: (BCDV36CF(G) ONLY: Before attaching elbows to the collars on the
back of the fi replace, 1½" will need to be trimmed off the exhaust pipe collar.)
Run a bead of high temperature sealant W573-0007 (not supplied) around the outside of the exhaust collar.
Attach the exhaust elbow to the exhaust collar and secure with 3 screws. Run a bead of high temperature
sealant W573-0002 (not supplied) around the outside of the air intake collar. Attach the air intake elbow to
the air intake collar and secure with 3 screws. Pull the exhaust telescopic sleeve a minimum 2" onto the
elbow. Secure with 3 screws. Repeat with the air intake telescopic sleeve.
TOP VENT APPLICATION: Run a bead of high temperature sealant W573-0007 (not supplied)
around the outside of the exhaust on the fi replace. Pull the exhaust telescopic sleeve a minimum of
2" onto the collar. Secure with 3 screws. Repeat with the air intake telescopic sleeve.
11. In the attic, slide the vent pipe collar down to cover up the open end of the vent pipe shield and tighten. This will prevent any materi-
als, such as insulation, from fi lling up the 1" air space around the pipe.
