WALL AND CEILING PROTECTION
For optimum performance, it is recommended that horizontal runs have a minimum ¼ " rise per foot when using
Simpson Dura-Vent, Selkirk Direct Temp, American Metal Amerivent, or Wolf Steel rigid vent components
and a minimum 1" rise per foot when using Wolf Steel fl exible vent components
For safe and proper operation of the fi replace, follow the venting instructions exactly.
1. Assemble the two halves of the vent sleeve by aligning the holes that come
together to make a rectangular shape (lip to the outside). Secure using 6 of the
screws supplied in the manual baggie.
NOTE: SCREWS NOT REQUIRED IN TWO BLIND HOLES. See Figure 19.
2. Fit the fi restop spacer into one end of the vent sleeve and secure through
the aligned holes on the top, bottom, and sides with the remaining 5 screws
supplied.
If fl exible venting is to be used remove the rigid fi restop spacer. The
remaining hole is sized for fl exible venting.
This application occurs when venting through an exterior wall.
Having determined the air terminal location, cut and frame a hole
in the exterior wall 9 7/8" wide by 11 3/8" high to accommodate the
fi restop sleeve assembly.
NOTE: THE FIRESTOP SLEEVE ASSEMBLY MUST BE INSTALLED
WITH THE 2" CLEARANCE TO THE TOP.
The length of the vent shield may be cut shorter for combustible
walls that are less than 8 1/2" thick but the vent shield must
extend the full depth of the combustible wall.
1. Insert the fi restop sleeve assembly into the wall, mark the wall
depth and trim the vent sleeve to suit. The screws that secure the
vent sleeve may need to be repositioned to ensure a rigid assembly
is maintained. Figure 20.
2. Apply a bead of caulking (not supplied) to the inside
surface of the fi restop fl ange and secure the assembly to
the wall. (Ensure that the rectangular shaped assembly
is installed to maintain 2" from the top of the vent).
Figure 21.
3. Once the vent pipe is installed in it's fi nal position,
apply high temperature sealant W573-0002 (not
supplied) between the pipe and the fi restop.
NOTE: DO NOT FILL THE CAVITY BETWEEN THE
PIPE AND THE VENT SLEEVE WITH ANY TYPE OF
MATERIAL.
