Ceiling Opening:
1. Determine the exact position of the fireplace so that the vent pipe is cen-
tred (if possible) between two building framing members. Lay out the vent
system path, minimizing the number of elbows and length of vent. Consult
your local building codes prior to proceeding.
2. Cut and frame a 14 1/2" opening in the floor, ceiling or roof where the vent
system will pass. Size of the opening in the roof may need to be increased
as the pitch of the roof increases. Avoid cutting rafters.
Ceiling Firestop:
1. Where a vent pipe passes through a floor or ceiling, a ceiling firestop must
be used to retain insulation and maintain proper clearances.
2. From below, push the ceiling firestop through the opening and secure in
place. If the firestop is used to penetrate a floor, the outer shield may be
trimmed in length. If the firestop penetrates into an attic, leave the shield
full length to keep insulation away from the vent pipe. Additionally, after
the vent pipe is in place, install a storm collar on top of the shield. This will
prevent loose insulation from falling into the area between the vent pipe and
the shield.
Vent Pipe Installation:
1. Install the first section of vent
pipe into the collar on top of the
fireplace. Secure in place with
screws and seal with approved
"High Temperature" self-adhesive
aluminium tape provided.
2. Continue adding vent pipe lengths
up and through the firestop(s) and
through the roof. The vent pipe
must extend at least 12” above
the roof. Vent pipe may need to
extend further depending on the
roof pitch. See table in (Figure 36)
for precise lengths.
3. Seal the vent pipe as per "Vent
Pipe Sealant" on page 23.
Roof Support Bracket:
Slip the roof support bracket down
over the vent pipe. Rotate the 90°
brackets to accommodate roof pitch.
Attach the brackets to the roof joists
with nails or building screws. Tighten
the band around the vent pipe and
secure in place with screws.
Size of the opening will have to
increase with the pitch of the
roof to ensure a 1 3/4" inch air
space clearance between vent
pipe and combustibles.
