SAF-T LINER COMPONENTS:
A variety of components are available to suit most installations such as Lengths, Adjustable Lengths, Elbows, Tees, Increasers,
Reducers, Top Plates, Support Clamp, Cover Plate, Rain Cap and Saf-T Wrap.
- Plan the installation of your appliance and Saf-T Liner in such a way that your connector run is as short and straight as
possible.
- Having an installation with too long and / or with multiple bends, can reduce system draft which can affect the operation, and
/ or performance of your appliance and / or chimney system. Choose the proper diameter of connector pipe. It must be al least
equivalent to the stove outlet diameter.
- All joints between sections of Saf-T Liner must be secured with four (4) stainless steel pop rivets per joint (supplied).
- Saf-T Liner must be installed with the pilot holes in the up position, smallest diameter end in the direction of the appliance,
arranged so condensate will drain within the connector pipe and into the appliance or into the Tee.
- Saf-T Liner used as a connector pipe must be sloped upward towards the chimney at least 1/4 inch per foot of horizontal run.
FIXED LENGTHS:
Saf-T Liner is available in 12”, 18”, 24”, 36” and 48” fixed Lengths. To
determine the length and number of liner sections required complete the
following: Calculate the number of fixed and/or telescoping lengths
required to line the chimney and extend not more than 6” above the
termination of the masonry chimney (Remember each fixed length’s
measurement must be reduced by 2” to account for overlap of each
section). See Fig. 8.
FIG.8
TELESCOPING LENGTHS:
The telescoping section
will adjust
from 50” to
90” for required height. NOTE: Two is the
maximum number of telescoping lengths which
may be installed above the appliance tee. A
telescoping section between the appliance and
clean out tee will allow for both radial and vertical
adjustments during the installation. See Fig. 9.
FIG.9
SLIP CONNECTOR:
The Slip Connector provides flexibility in completing a run
and may be used
to allow expansion and contraction of the system.
While the female end
will fasten securely to a section, the male end can be easily adjusted to
match the required length into another section. The Slip Connector provides
from 2" to 14" of usable length (includes joint).
