Preparing the Appliance Vent Collar
Each of the appliances' two vent collars are sealed with a seal cap which
must be removed from the vent collar being used. Refer to
Figure 16
for top vent installations and
Figure 17
for side vent installations and
the following steps to prepare the appropriate collar for use.
From the vent collar being used, remove the two screws securing the
vent seal cap. Twist the cap counterclockwise. Pull it away from the
appliance and discard, along with the piece of insulation.
WARNING: The VENT SEAL CAP must remain securely
installed on unused vent collar. Failure to do so could
result in leakage of flue products into living space.

INSTALLING VENT RESTRICTOR
(Top Vent Installations with Vertical Terminations Only)
A vent restrictor (provided) may be needed with this appliance. If needed,
install the vent restrictor (provided) in the appliance top flue outlet as
shown in
Figure 18
when vertically terminating the vent system above
the roof. It may be installed either from inside or outside the appliance,
in the inner fireplace collar. It is press-fitted in place.

VENTING SYSTEM - HORIZONTAL OR VERTICAL
With the appliance secured in framing, determine vent routing and identify
the exterior termination location. The following sections describe vertical
(roof) and horizontal (exterior wall) vent applications. Refer to the section
relating to your installation. A list of approved venting components is
shown on
Pages 34 & 35
.
Vertical (offset) Installation
Analyze the vent routing and determine the number of vent sections and
elbows required. Refer to
Vertical Vent Figures and Table
s on
Pages 16
& 17
to select the type of vertical installation desired. Refer to the
Vent
Section Length Chart
on
Page 12
for an aid in selecting vent length
combinations. Elbows are available in 45° and 90° configurations.
Refer to
Figure 23
for the SV4.5E45 and SV4.5E90 elbow dimensional
specifications.
Where required, a
Telescopic Vent Section
(SV4.5LA) may be used to
provide the installer with an option in installing in tight and confined
spaces or where the vent run made up of fixed length pieces develops a
joint in a undesirable location, or will not build up to the required length.
The SV4.5LA
Telescopic Vent Section
has an effective length of from 1-
1/2" (38 mm) to 7-1/2" (191 mm). The SV4.5LA is fitted with a locking
inclined channel end (identical to a normal vent section component) and
a plain end with 3 pilot holes. Slip the plain end over the locking chan-
nel end of a standard SV4.5 vent component the required distance and
secure with three screws.
Maintain a minimum " (25 mm) clearance to combustible materi-
als for all vertical elements. Clearances for all horizontal elements
are 3" (76 mm) on top, " (25 mm) on sides and " (25 mm) on the
bottom.
A. Frame ceiling opening - Use a plumb line from the ceiling above the
appliance to locate center of the vertical run. Cut and/or frame an open-
ing, 10-1/2" x 10-1/2" (267 mm x 267 mm) inside dimensions, about
this center mark
