Installing the Outer Vent Heat Shields and Vent Termination (Parallel Installation on Outside Wall)
1. Before you install the horizontal vent
termination, you must first install the
second halves of the two telescoping vent
pipe heat shields. Each shield half simply
slips over the half you previously attached
to the rear panel of the stove and can
now be seen inside the vent pass-through
in the wall.
2. Install the outer shield first and the inner
second. Leave about 1-1/4" of the shields
protruding past the house sheathing.
3. Install the horizontal vent termination
(vent cap) by first removing the two
mounting straps as they will not be used.
Be sure that the arrow on the cap (if
present) is pointing up and reconfirm that
all the vent cap location requirements per
page 15 and the vent manufacturer's
requirements are met.
4. Slip the inner and outer vent termination
pipes onto the vent starter pipe, taking
care to align the inner and outer pipes to
prevent damage.
5. Slide the vent termination (cap) into the
siding recess (or vinyl siding shield) until it
bottoms out. Note: The rear surface of
the vent termination will push the
telescoping vent pipe heat shields inward.
When the vent termination is in place the
heat shields will just touch the rear
surface of the termination.
6. Pull the vent cap away from the sheathing
and install a small bead of non-hardening
silicone sealer around the cap perimeter.
Push the cap into place.
7. Install the mounting screws (included with
the cap) to hold the vent cap to the
sheathing. See the venting
manufacturer's instructions for the
location of the mounting holes. Typical
mounting hole locations are shown in the
adjacent illustration. See the venting
manufacturer's instructions for more
information or if using the vinyl siding
shield.
