VENT SYSTEM IDENTIFICATION
Begin the vent system installation by selecting the type of venting
to be installed and the path it will take. Verify clearances are met
throughout the path of the venting system.
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 exist in the vent system. Use
Figure 39
on page 33 for top
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.
