VERTICAL (THROUGH-THE-ROOF) APPLICATIONS
This Gas Fireplace has been approved for,
Vertical installations up to 40' (12m) in height. Up to a 10' (3m) horizontal vent run can be installed within the vent system
using a maximum of two 90° elbows. See Figure 28.
NOTE: Horizontal sections of this vent system require a
minimum of 3" clearances to combustibles at the top of
the flue and 1" clearance at the sides and bottom until the
flue penetrates the outside wall. A minimum 1" clearance all
around the flue is acceptable at this point of penetration.
Vertical sections of this vent system require a minimum of
1" clearance to combustibles on all sides of the pipe.
40' Maximum Height
8' Minimum Height
Up to two 45° elbows may be used within the
horizontal run. For each 45° elbow used on the
horizontal plane, the maximum horizontal length
must be reduced by 18" (450mm).
Example: Maximum horizontal length
No elbows = 10' (3m)
1x45° elbows = 8.5' (2.6m)
2x45° elbows = 7' (2.1m)
A minimum of an 8' (2.5m) vertical rise is
required.
Two sets of 45°elbows offsets may be used within
the vertical sections. From 0 to a maximum of 8'
(2.5 m) of vent pipe can be used between elbows.
See Figure 29.
The maximum angular variation allowed in the
system is 270°. See Figure 29.
