VENTING LENGTHS AND COMPONENTS

Use only Wolf Steel, Simpson Dura-Vent, Selkirk Direct Temp, American Metal Amerivent or Metal-Fab venting
components. Minimum and maximum vent lengths, for both horizontal and vertical installations, and air terminal
locations for either system are set out in this manual and must be adhered to. For Simpson Dura-Vent, Selkirk Direct
Temp, American Metal Amerivent and Metal-Fab follow the installation procedure provided with the venting components.
A starter adaptor must be used with the following vent systems and may be purchased from the corresponding supplier:
PART
Duravent
Amerivent
Direct Temp
SuperSeal
* For Simpson Dura-Vent, Selkirk Direct Temp, American Metal Amerivent and Metal-Fab follow the installation
procedure found on the website for your venting supplier.
For vent systems that provide seals on the inner exhaust fl ue, only the outer air intake joints must be sealed using a red
high temperature silicone (RTV). This same sealant may be used on both the inner exhaust and outer intake vent pipe
joints of all other approved vent systems except for the exhaust vent pipe connection to the appliance fl ue collar which must
be sealed using the black high temperature sealant Mill Pac.
When using Wolf Steel venting components, use only approved Wolf Steel rigid / fl exible components with the following
termination kits: wall terminal kit GD222, GD222R, or 1/12 to 7/12 pitch roof terminal kit GD110, 8/12 to 12/12 roof terminal
kit GD111, fl at roof terminal kit GD112 or periscope kit GD201 (for wall penetration below grade). With fl exible venting, in
conjunction with the various terminations, use either the 5 foot vent kit GD220 or the 10 foot vent kit GD330.
For optimum flame appearance and appliance performance, keep the vent length and number of elbows to a minimum.
The air terminal must remain unobstructed at all times. Examine the air terminal at least once a year to verify that
it is unobstructed and undamaged.
Rigid and fl exible venting systems must not be combined. Different venting manufacturer components must not
be combined.
These vent kits allow for either horizontal or vertical venting of the appliance. The maximum allowable horizontal run is 20
feet. The maximum allowable vertical vent length is 40 feet. The maximum number of vent connections is two horizontally
or three vertically (excluding the appliance and the air terminal connections) when using fl exible venting.
For optimum performance, it is recommended that all horizontal runs have a 1" rise per foot.
