4. Separate the 2 halves of the wall thimble and
securely fasten the one with the tabs to the
outside wall making sure that the tabs are on
top and bottom. Fasten the other thimble half
to the inside wall. The thimble halves slip inside
each other and can be adjusted for 2 x 4 or 2
x 6 walls. The liners must slip over the collars
a minimum of 1-3/8".
5. Slip the assembled liner and termination
assembly through the thimble making sure the
termination cap faces up (there are markings
on the cap that show which way is up). This
will position the termination cap with proper
down slope for draining water. Fasten the cap
to the outer wall with the 4 supplied screws.
6. Pull the centre 4"(100mm) liner and outer
6-7/8"(175mm) liner out enough to slip over
the flue collars of the fireplace. (You may
wish to cut the liner shorter to make it more
workable.) Do not bend liner more than 90
o
.
7. Apply Mill Pac over the fireplace inner collar
and slip the 4"(100mm) liner down over it and
attach with 3 supplied screws.
8. Do the same with the 6-7/8"(175mm) liner.
9. Apply a bead of silicone between the thimble
and termination and around the outer edge of
the terminal at the wall in order to keep the
water out.
IMPORTANT: Do not locate termination
hood where excessive snow or ice
buildup may occur. Be sure to check
vent termination area after snow falls,
and clear to prevent accidental blockage
of venting system. When using snow
blowers, make sure snow is not directed
towards vent termination area.

Installation Procedures
1. Locate the unit in the framing, rough in the
gas (preferably on the right side of the unit)
and the electrical (Junction block is on the
left side) on the left. Locate the centerline of
the termination and mark wall accordingly.
Cut a 10"(254mm) hole in the wall (inside
dimension).
Note: A 1-1/2"(38mm) clearance
around the liner must be
maintained except that only
a 1" (25mm) clearance is
needed at the termination
end. We recommend framing
a 10"(254mm) x 10"(254mm)
(inside dimensions) hole to give
structural rigidity for mounting
the termination.
Note: If installing termination on a
siding covered wall, furring strips
must be used to ensure that the
termination is not recessed into
the siding.
2. Level the fireplace and fasten it to the framing
using nails or screws through the nailing strips.
3. Assemble the vent assembly by applying Mill Pac
to the 4"(100mm) inner collar of the termination
and slipping the 4"(100mm) liner over it at
least 1-3/8" (35mm). Fasten with the 3 screws
(drilling pilot holes will make this easier). Apply
Mill Pac to the 6-7/8"(175mm) flex pipe and
slip it over the 6-7/8" outer collar of the vent
terminal at least 1-3/8"(35mm) and fasten with
the 3 screws.
NOTE:Horizontal sections must be
supported at intervals not
exceeding 3 feet (0.9 meter).
(Flame picture and performance
will be affected by sags in the
liner).
A poor draft, or down drafting can result from high
wind conditions near big trees or adjoining roof
lines, in these cases, increasing the vent height
may solve the problem.
7. Ensure vent is vertical and secure the base of
the flashing to the roof with roofing rails, slide
storm collar over the pipe section and seal with
a mastic.
8. Install the vertical termination cap by twist-
locking it.
Note: Any closets or storage spaces,
which the vent passes through
must be enclosed.
