Apply high temperature sealant to 4” (10 mm) and 7” (179
mm) collars or the termination one inch away from crimped
end. Guide the vent terminations 4” and 7” collars into their
respective vent pipes. Double check that the vent pipes
overlap the collars by ” (51 mm). Secure the termination
to the wall with screws provided and caulk around the wall
plate to weatherproof. (Fig. 19)

Support horizontal pipes every 3’ (914 mm)
with metal pipe straps.
Check stove to make sure it is leveled and
properly positioned.
Below Grade Installations
When it is not possible to meet the required vent terminal
clearances of 1” (305 mm) above grade level a snorkel
vent kit is recommended. It allows installation depth of
down to 7” (178 mm) below grade level. The 7” is measured
from the center of the horizontal vent pipe as it penetrates
through the wall.
If venting system is installed below ground,
we recommend a window well with adequate
and proper drainage.
Ensure sidewall venting clearances are ob-
served.
If installing a snorkel, a minimum 4” (610 mm) vertical rise
is necessary. The maximum horizontal run with the 4” (610
mm) vertical pipe is 36” (914 mm). This measurement is
taken from the collar of the stove (or transition elbow) to the
face of the exterior wall. Refer to the Sidewall Vent Graph
for extended horizontal run if the vertical rise exceeds 4”
(610 mm).
1. Establish vent hole through the wall. (Fig. 13)
. Remove soil to a depth of approximately 16” (406
mm) below base of snorkel. Install drain pipe. Install
window well (not supplied). Refill hole with 1” (305 mm)
of coarse gravel leaving a clearance of approximately
4” (10 mm) below snorkel. (Fig. 0)
3. Install vent system.
4. Ensure a watertight seal is made around the vent pipe
coming through the wall.
5. Apply high temperature sealant caulking (supplied)
around the 4” and 7“ snorkel collars.
6. Slide the snorkel into the vent pipes and secure to the
wall.
7. Level the soil to maintain a 4” (10 mm) clearance below
snorkel. (Fig. 0)
