pipe to the fireplace. Follow with the installation of the
inner and outer elbow, tape elbow joints and secure
joints as described on Page 11.
STEP 6
Measure the horizontal length requirement including a
2" (50mm) overlap, ie from the elbow to the outside wall
face plus 2" (50mm) (or the distance required if install-
ing a second 90° elbow). (Fig. 24)
Always install horizontal venting on a
level plane.

Use appropriate length of pipe sections and install the
horizontal vent sections. You may need to cut 1' wall
