For each 45° elbow installed in the horizontal run,
the length of the horizontal run MUST be reduced
by 18" (45cm). This does not apply if the 45° elbows
are installed on the vertical part of the vent system.
For each 90° elbow installed in the horizontal run,
the length of the horizontal run MUST be reduced by
36" (91cm).
•
The maximum number of elbow degrees in a system
is 270°. (Fig. 20)

Sidewall Installation

STEP 1
Locate vent opening on the wall. It may be necessary
to first position the fireplace and measure to obtain hole
location. Depending on whether the wall is combustible
or noncombustible, cut opening to size. (Fig. 21)
For combustible walls first frame in opening.
Combustible Walls: Cut a 16¹⁄₄"H x 16¹⁄₄" W (413mm
x 413mm) hole through the exterior wall and frame as
shown.
Noncombustible Walls: Hole opening must be 11¹⁄₄"
(286mm) in diameter.
STEP 2
Measure wall thickness and cut zero clearance sleeve
parts to proper length (MAXIMUM 12"/305 mm). As-
semble sleeve using #8 sheet metal screws (supplied).
(Fig. 22) Install firestop assembly. (Fig. 31)
Zero clearance sleeve is only required for
combustible walls.
STEP 3
Slide the zero clearance sleeve through the wall and
install the firestop on the inside surface of the wall.
Secure with four (4) #8 sheet metal screws.
