For vent systems that provide seals on the inner exhaust fl ue, 
only the outer air intake joints must be sealed using a red high 
temperature silicone (RTV). This same sealant maybe used 
on both the inner exhaust and outer intake vent pipe joints 
of all other approved vent systems except for the exhaust 
vent pipe connection to the fi replace fl ue collar which must 
be sealed using the black high temperature sealant Mill Pac. 
High temperature sealant must be ordered separately.
When using Wolf Steel venting components, use only the 
following vent kits: 

WALL TERMINAL KIT GD175 

(7-1/2' 

of venting included), 

WALL TERMINAL KIT GD176 

(24" of 

venting included), or 

1/12 TO 7/12 PITCH ROOF TERMINAL 

KIT GD110

8/12 TO 12/12 ROOF TERMINAL KIT GD111

FLAT ROOF TERMINAL KIT GD112 

or 

STOVE PERISCOPE 

KIT GD180 

(for wall penetration below grade)

 

in conjunction 

with the appropriate venting components. 

•  These vent kits allow for  

 

 

 

  either horizontal or vertical  
  venting of the stove. 

•  The maximum number of  
 4" 

fl exible connections    

  is 3 horizontally or three   
  vertically (excluding the   
  stove and the air terminal  
 connections).

•  When terminating  

 

  vertically, the minimum 

  vertical rise is 3 feet 

 

    above the stove and the  
  maximum vertical rise is        
 40 

feet. 

FIGURE 4.

 

Deviation from the minimum vertical vent length can 

create diffi culty in burner start-up and/or carboning.

Use an adjustable pipe as the fi nal length of rigid 

piping to the stove for ease of installation.

HORIZONTAL RUN NOT TO

EXCEED VERTICAL RISE

•   For optimum fl ame appearance and stove performance,  
  keep the vent length and number of elbows to a mini 
 mum. 

•   The air terminal must remain unobstructed at all times.  
  Examine the air terminal at least once a year to verify    
  that it is unobstructed and undamaged.

The maximum horizontal run with a 57 inch vertical rise im-
mediately above the stove is 20 feet
