Note:   Apply sealant "Mill-Pac" to inner pipe 

and high temperature silicone seal-

ant to outer pipe on every twist-lock 

joint.

TERMINATION

1)

  Maintain the 1-1/4" clearances (air spaces) 

to combustibles when passing through ceil-

ings, walls, roofs, enclosures, attic 

rafter, or other nearby combustible 

surfaces. Do not pack air spaces 

with insulation. Check pages 17-19 

for the maximum vertical rise of the 

flueing system and the maximum 

horizontal offset limitations.

2)

  Set the gas appliance in its desired 

location. Drop a plumb bob down 

from  the  ceiling  to  the  position  of 

in the ceiling, and mark the spot where the 

flue will penetrate the roof. Determine if ceil-

ing joists, roof rafters or other framing will 

obstruct the flueing system. You may wish to 

relocate the appliance or to offset, as shown 

in Diagram 2 to avoid cutting 

load bearing members.

3)

  A  F i r e s t o p 

spacer must be 

installed in the 

floor  or  ceiling 

of  every  level. 

To install the 

Firestop spacer 

in a flat ceiling or wall, cut a 10 inch square 

hole. Frame the hole as shown in Diagram 

3 and install the firestop.

4)

  Assemble the desired lengths of pipe and  

elbows. Ensure that all pipes and elbow con-

nections are in the fully twist-locked position 

and sealed.

5)

  Cut a hole in the roof centered on the small 

drilled hole placed in the roof in Step 2. The 

hole  should  be  of  sufficient  size  to  meet 

the  minimum  requirements  for  clearance 

to combustibles of 1-1/4". Slip the flashing 

under the shingles (shingles should overlap 

half the flashing) as per Diagram 4.

6)

  Continue to assemble pipe lengths.

Diagram 4: The upper half of the flashing is 

installed under the roofing material and not 

nailed down until the chimney is installed. This 

allows for small adjustments.

Note:  If an offset is necessary in the attic 

to avoid obstructions, it is important 

to support the flue pipe every 3 feet, 

to avoid excessive stress on the el-

bows, and possible separation.  Wall 

straps are available for this purpose 

(Diagram 2).

 

 

Galvanized pipe is desirable above the roof-

line  due  to  its  higher  corrosion  resistance. 

Continue to add pipe sections through the 

flashing until the height of the flue cap meets 

the minimum height requirements specified 

in Diagram 5 or local codes.  Note that for 

steep roof pitches, the vertical height must 

be increased.  A poor draft, or down drafting 

the appliance flue exit, and 

mark  the  location  where 

the flue will penetrate the 

ceiling. Drill a small hole 

at his point. Next, drop a 

plumb bob from the roof to 

the hole previously drilled

pipe to the flue termination, slide the Wall 

Thimble (Part # 942) over the flue pipe.

8)

  Slide  the  appliance  and  flue  assembly 

towards the wall carefully inserting the flue 

pipe into the flue cap assembly. It is important 

that the flue pipe extends into the flue cap 

sufficient distance so as to result in a mini-

mum pipe overlap of 1-1/4 inches. Secure 

the connection between the flue pipe and 

the flue cap by attaching the two sheet metal 

strips extending from the flue cap assembly 

into the outer wall of the flue pipe. Use the 

two sheet metal screws provided to connect 

the strips to the pipe section. See Diagram 

4.

9)

  Install wall thimble in the center of the 10" 

square and attach with wood screws (Dia-

gram 5).
