TERMINATION 

CAUTION: 

Do  not seal  openings on  the rooftop flashing. 

Foil ow  the  installation  instructions  provided  with  the 

termination being used. 

Tem1inations  with  16"  slip  pipe  sections  are  available.  The 

RTT-8DM  and  RTTL-8DM  are  approved  for  flashing 

installations.  When  needed, these adjustable te1111inations  may 

be  used  in  combination with the pipe  assembly to  achieve the 

correct chimney height. 

NOTE: 

In  the  rare  instance  there  is  a problem  with  the  side 

driven rain or wind or the  chimney is  not drafting properly, an 

ADS-8DM  Anti  Draft  Shield  can  be  used  with  round 

tem1inations. 

CHASE INSTALLATIONS 

Instructions for chase i,·, tallations  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.  We 

suggest  that  terminations  be  separated  at  least  24  inches, 

center to  center and  stacked  at  vertical  height difference of 18 

inches  (see figure  15).

sheet  rock,  d1ywall,  plywood,  etc.  may  make  direct  contact 

with  sides  and  top  periphery  of  the  fireplace  face.  It  is 

important  that  combustible  materials  do  not  overlap  the  face 

itself.  Brick,  glass,  tile  or  other  non-combustible  materials 

may  overlap  the  front  face  provided  they  do  not  obstruct 

essential  openings  like  louvered  slots  or  any  other  opening. 

When  overlapping  with  a  non-combustible  facing  material, 

use  only non-combustible mortar or adhesive.
