FLASHING INSTALLATION: 
 (V6F-8DM or V6F-8DM) 
 

Determine the flashing to be used with the roof-opening chart.  
Slide flashing over pipe until base is flat against roof.  Replace 
as many shingles as needed to cover exposed area and flashing 
base.  Secure in position by nailing through shingles (see 
figure 19). DO NOT NAIL THROUGH FLASHING CONE. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

STORM COLLAR INSTALLATION: (VSC1-8DM) 

 
Place storm collar over pipe and slide down until it is snug 
against the open edge of the flashing (see figure 20). 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Apply waterproof caulking to all seams and notches around 
storm collar and also at base around shingles. 
 

TERMINATIONS: 

STANDARD INSTALLATONS: 
 
The fireplace system must be terminated with the listed round 
top or square chase terminations.  The terminations approved 
for this fireplace are RTL-8DM, which can be used for 
flashing or chase and ETL-8DM for chase style termination 
only.  Figure 21 shows an RTL-8DM round top termination.  
 
 

FOLLOW THE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS 
PROVIDED WITH THE TERMINATION BEING USED. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

 
 
 
CHASE INSTALLATIONS: 

 
Instructions for chase installations are included with the chase 
style termination chosen.  In a multiple chase installation, be 
sure to provide adequate distance between terminations to 
prevent smoke spillage from one termination to another.  It is 
recommended that terminations be separated at least 24 
inches, center-to-center, and stacked at vertical height 
difference of 18 inches or more (see figure 22). 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

10-FOOT RULE: 

 
All flue gas outlets of chimney terminations must extend a 
minimum of three feet in height above the highest point where 
it passes through the roof and must be at least two feet above 
the highest point of the roof that is within a horizontal distance 
of ten feet (see figure 23).
