Important note
• Your evaporator is supplied with all the necessary components for the safe installation of the LWS listed
chimney. However, you must obtain the LWS listed chimney from your LAPIERRE EQUIPMENT representative.
• The performance of your evaporator has been measured with a standard installation with a 16 ft. (6.10 m)
listed chimney. Also, your results may vary depending on your particular chimney installation.
3.1.3
Flashings, rain caps and steam vents
Below you will find information about flashings, rain caps, and evaporator steam vent outlets.
Flashings
Determine the slope of the roof by measuring the height over a horizontal distance of 12 in. (30.48 cm). This
information will be necessary to order the flashings.
Rain caps
When ordering, you will also need to specify whether you want standard or rope operated rain caps.
Steam vents
• The openings of the evaporator hood steam vents will be made only after the equipment is installed in the
building and subject to the obstacles in their way (see Table 1: Evaporator, chimney and vent sizes by model).
• The 2 steam vents, consisting of 2 x 3 sections of 4 ft. (1.22 m) each, are included with the evaporator, as are
the two rope operated rain caps. When ordering, you will need to specify the roof pitch for the flashings and
the choice between standard or Chinese rain caps, if desired. The hood is not included with the evaporator.
