)
would require 4.5 ft min. vertical vent (V + V

NOTICE
Secure Vent Vertical Firestop/Spacer
(SV8BF) must be used anywhere vent pipe
passes through a combustible floor or
ceiling. Secure Vent Horizontal Firestop/
Spacer (SV8HF4) must be used anywhere
vent pipe passes through a combustible
wall.
It is important to install horizontal runs on
a
steady, (i.e., no
“dips
”), slightly posi
-
tive incline
of approximately 1/4" rise-
per-foot (20 millimeters rise-per-meter)
horizontal, in a direction away from the
fireplace. (
Slightly smaller rise-per-foot
run ratios are acceptable.) Use a carpenter’s
level to measure from a constant surface,
and adjust support straps as necessary.

NOTE
: Two 45-degree elbows may be used
in place of one 90-degree elbow. If using
45-degree elbows, follow the same rise-to-
run ratios as shown for 90-degree elbows.
