VENT SYSTEM IDENTIFICATION
Figure 1
Begin the vent system installation by selecting the type of venting
to be installed and the path that it will take. Verify that clearances
are met throughout the path of the venting system. Determine if the
fireplace is to be vented out the top or out the rear.
NOTICE: Some fireplaces cannot be vented out the rear of the
fireplace.
Determine how the vent system will be terminated out the side of
the house or through the roof. Verify clearances for the termination.
When selecting a vent system for use with the fireplace, refer to
the “Special Vent Systems” section in this manual to determine
what systems are acceptable. Check all clearances and venting
components. Identify if any problems existing in the vent system.
Use Figure 22 on page 17 for top venting, or Figure 35 on page
22 for rear venting to eliminate issues after installation. Check pipe
diameter on vent system and fireplace to verify the size is the same.
NOTICE: All outer connection joints must be sealed with
aluminum tape, screws or silicone sealant rated above
300°F/149°C. The inner flue joints do not require any sealant.
