Table 20 - Venting Components Required for Various Exterior Wall Thicknesses, when using Typical Termination Kits
Horizontal Vent Figures/Tables
NOTE: Secure Vent
terminal may also be used.
NOTE: Two (2) 45° elbows may be used in place of one (1) 90° elbow. The same rise to run ratios, as shown in the
venting figures for 90° elbows, must be followed if 45° elbows are used.
NOTE: Maintain the horizontal/inclined run in a straight (no dips), slightly elevated plane. The recommended incline
is approximately 1/4" per 1 ft (20 mm per 1 m) horizontal, in a direction away from the fireplace. Smaller rise per
foot run ratios are acceptable all the way to at or near level. Use a carpenter's level to measure from a constant
surface and adjust the support straps as necessary.
NOTE: SV4.5VF (Secure Vent), SF4.5VF (Secure Flex) firestop/spacer must be used any time vent pipe passes
through a combustible floor or ceiling. SV4.5HF (Secure Vent), SF4.5HF (Secure Flex) firestop/spacer must be used
any time vent pipe passes through a combustible wall.
Do not join separate sections of concentric flexible vent together.
Table 21 - Rear Vent—No Elbows
See Table 20 as an aid in venting component selection for a
particular range of exterior wall thicknesses.
NOTE: "H" is horizontal distance from rear of unit to outer wall
surface
NOTE: Use the minimal horizontal vent restrictor when rear
venting with only a slip collar and a termination.
NOTE: If SV4.5HTSS termination is used (for 35" models
only); the Wall Heatshield provided shall be installed per
instructions on Page 32 (see instruction #12 and Figure 25A).
