VENTING FIREPLACE - TOP (continued)

Warning

: Use flue restrictor for vertically terminated units only.

Do not use for horizontally terminated units.

Figures 47 to 49

show the location and recommended openings

for the flue restrictor. Adjustments may be made for each

particular installation.

Figure 47

Note:

When installing flue restrictor, install with screws pointing

in downward position.

Below Grade Installation

When it is not possible to meet the required vent termination

clearances of 12” (305 mm) above grade level, a snorkel kit is

recommended. It allows installation depth down to 7” (178 mm)

below grade level. The 7” (178 mm) is measured from the center of

the horizontal vent pipe as it penetrates through the wall.

Ensure the sidewall venting clearances are observed. If venting

system is installed below ground, we recommend a window

well with adequate and proper drainage to be installed around

the termination area.
