INSTALLATION THROUGH HIGH 
PITCH OR CHALET CEILING USING 
TGAS

1.  From the appliance manufacturer’s instructions, determine

 

 

the correct flue diameter for the chimney and proper location

 

 

of the chimney.

2.  Using  framing  lumber  equal  to  ceiling  joist  size,  frame

 

 

opening  providing  a  minimum  1-1/2”  clearance  for  6”-8”

 

 

diameters  and  2”  clearance  for  10”  -  12”  diameters    from 

 

 

the chimney to combustibles. Opening dimensions will vary

 

 

based on roof pitch (slope).

3.  Assemble TGAS as shown in 

FIG 12

. Tighten  nuts  finger

 

 

tight only.

4.  Locate the TGAS over the framed opening in the roof. Nail

 

 

the brackets to the framing using a minimum of two (2) #8

 

 

nails per bracket.

5.  Slip a trim sleeve joint cover (TGTS) over the end of the TG 

 

 

pipe that is to go through the support and protrude into the  

 

house.  Attach  a  single  adaptor  (TGPSWA)  to  the  female 

 

 

end of the TG pipe and slip TGTS flush to the end of the

 

 TGPSWA.

6.  From below, slide TG chimney pipe section through the 
 

opening and through the support band. Drill 1/8” holes into 

 

the exterior casing of the TG pipe at each pilot hole in the 

 

 

support band.

 DO NOT PENETRATE FLUE.

 Secure the 

 

support band to the chimney using sheet metal screws 

 

provided with the TGAS assembly.

7.  Adjust the pipe section so that it stands vertically through

 

 

the  roof.  TIGHTEN  all  nuts  to  secure  the  pipe  in  the

 

 

vertical position.

8.  The interior opening in the ceiling may be trimmed with a 

 

TGPCP.  Select the appropriately shaped trim plate for your

 

 

ceiling  pitch  (slope).  Slide  the  trim  plate  over  the  opening

 

 

and secure to the ceiling. Determine ceiling pitch as shown 

 in 

FIG. 13

.

WARNING:

  Use  only  Single  Wall  or  Double  Wall  Black

 

 

Stove  Pipe  connector  below  the  ceiling  line  as  shown  in 

 

 

FIG. 11

.  Use  of  additional  TG  pipe  as  a  connector  is 

 

 prohibited.
