FLASHING INSTALLATION:
(V6F-8DM or V6F-8DM)
Determine the flashing to be used with the roof-opening chart.
Slide flashing over pipe until base is flat against roof. Replace
as many shingles as needed to cover exposed area and flashing
base. Secure in position by nailing through shingles (see
figure 20). DO NOT NAIL THROUGH FLASHING CONE.
STORM COLLAR INSTALLATION: (VSC1-8DM)
Place storm collar over pipe and slide down until it is snug
against the open edge of the flashing (see figure 21).
Apply waterproof caulking to all seams and notches around
storm collar and also at base around shingles.
TERMINATIONS:
STANDARD INSTALLATONS:
The fireplace system must be terminated with the listed round
top or square chase terminations. The terminations approved
for this fireplace are RT-8DM and RTL-8DM, which can be
used for flashing or chase and ET-8DM and ETO-8DM for
chase style termination only. Figure 22 shows an RTL-8DM
round top termination.
FOLLOW THE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
PROVIDED WITH THE TERMINATION BEING USED.
Terminations with 16” slip pipe sections are available. The
RTT-8DM and RTTL-8DM are approved for flashing or chase
installations. The ETL-8DM and ETLO-8DM are
terminations that may be used with chase installations only.
When needed, these adjustable terminations may be used in
combination with the pipe assembly to achieve the correct
chimney height.
CHASE INSTALLATIONS:
Instructions for chase installations are included with the chase
style termination chosen. In a multiple chase installation, be
sure to provide adequate distance between terminations to
prevent smoke spillage from one termination to another. It is
recommended that terminations be separated at least 24
inches, center-to-center, and stacked at vertical height
difference of 18 inches or more (see figure 23).
10-FOOT RULE:
All flue gas outlets of chimney terminations must extend a
minimum of three feet in height above the highest point where
it passes through the roof and must be at least two feet above
the highest point of the roof that is within a horizontal distance
of ten feet (see figure 24).
