The Vent Graph should be read in conjunction with the follow-
ing vent installation instructions to determine the relationship
between the vertical and horizontal dimensions of the vent
system.
1. Determine the height of the center of the horizontal vent
pipe exiting through the outer wall. Using this dimension
on the Sidewall Vent Graph below, locate the point inter-
secting with the slanted graph line.
2. From the point of this intersection, draw a vertical line to
the bottom of the graph.
3. Select the indicated dimension, and position the fireplace
in accordance with same.
Example: If the vertical dimension from the floor of the
fireplace is 11' (3.4m) the horizontal run to the face of the
outer wall must not exceed 14' (4.3m).
Example: If the vertical dimension from the floor of the unit
is 7’ (2.14m), the horizontal run to the face of the outer
wall must not exceed 8
