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).
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 as-
sembly 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.
Note: To make
the installation
more aesthetically
pleasing, we
recommend
framing out a
square to mount
the terminal to.

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 2" clearance at the top and 1 1/2"
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: When installing a appliance where
the exterior of the house will be or is
sided with vinyl siding, a vinyl siding
standoff or furring strips must be
used to ensure that the termination
cap is not recessed into the siding.
If there is no siding installed - install
the vinyl siding standoff or furring
strips to the exterior of the home
where the termination cap is to be
installed. Install the cap on the vinyl
siding standoff or furring strips.
J-channel can then be installed
around the vinyl siding standoff,
then the siding can be installed.
If vinyl siding is already installed
- line up the vinyl siding standoff
or furring strips on the vinyl siding
where the termination cap is to be
installed, trace out the vinyl siding
standoff or furring strips, then cut
out and remove the vinyl. Install
the standoff to the exterior of the
home. Install the termination cap on
the vinyl siding standoff or furring
strips.
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 that for steep roof pitches, the vertical height
must be increased. 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.
