8) Slide the appliance and vent assembly towards
the wall carefully inserting the vent pipe into
the vent cap assembly. It is important that the
vent pipe extends into the vent cap sufficient
distance so as to result in a minimum pipe
overlap of 1-1/4 inches. Secure the connection
between the vent pipe and the vent cap 3 sheet
metal screws.
9) Install wall thimble in the center of the 10"
square and attach with wood screws (Diagram
4).

UNIT INSTALLATION WITH
VERTICAL
TERMINATION
1) Maintain the 1-1/2" clearances (air spaces)
to combustibles when passing through
ceilings, walls, roofs, enclosures, attic rafter,
or other nearby combustible surfaces. Do
not pack air spaces with insulation. Check
"Venting" Sections for the maximum vertical
rise of the venting system and
the maximum horizontal offset
limitations.
2) Set the gas appliance in
d e s i r e d l o c a t i o n . D r o p
plumb bob down from the
ceiling to the position of
the appliance flue exit, and
mark the location where the
vent will penetrate the ceil-
ing. Drill a small hole
at this point. Next, drop
plumb bob from the roof
the hole previously drilled
the ceiling, and mark the
spot where the vent will
penetrate the roof.
3) A Firestop spacer must be installed in the floor
or ceiling of every level. To install the Firestop
spacer in a flat ceiling or wall, cut a 10 inch
square hole. Frame the hole as shown in Diagram
2 and install the firestop.

4) Assemble the desired lengths of pipe and
elbows. Ensure that all pipes and elbow
connections are in the fully twist-locked
position and sealed.
NOTE:
performance with each approved venting
system, it is highly recommended to apply
"Mill-Pac" sealant (supplied) to every inner
pipe connection. Failure to do so may
result in drafting or performance issues
not covered under warranty.
5) Cut a hole in the roof centered on the small
drilled hole placed in the roof in Step 2. The
hole should be of sufficient size to meet
the minimum requirements for clearance
to combustibles of 1-1/2". Slip the flashing
under the shingles (shingles should overlap
half the flashing) as per Diagram 3.
Diagram 3: The upper half of the
flashing is installed under the roofing
its
material and not nailed down until the
a
chimney is installed. This allows for
6) Continue to assemble pipe lengths.
Note: If an offset is necessary in the
attic to avoid obstructions, it is
a
important to support the vent pipe
t o
every 3 feet, to avoid excessive
i n
stress on the elbows, and possible
separation.

available for this purpose.
Galvanized pipe is desirable above the roofline
due to its higher corrosion resistance. Continue
to add pipe sections through the flashing until
the height of the vent cap meets the minimum
height requirements specified in Dia. 4 or local
codes. Note that for steep roof pitches, the
vertical height must be increased. A poor
draft, or down drafting can result from high
wind conditions near big trees or adjoining
roof lines, in these cases, increasing the
vent height may solve the problem.
7) Ensure vent is vertical and secure the base
of the flashing to the roof with roofing rails,
slide storm collar over the pipe section and
seal with a mastic.

small adjustments.

8) Install the vertical termination cap by
twist-locking it.
Note: Any closets or storage spaces,
which the vent passes through
must be enclosed.
GAS LINE
INSTALLATION
The gas line is brought through the right side
of the appliance. The gas valve is situated on
the right hand side of the unit and the gas inlet
is on the right hand side of the valve.
The gas line connection may be made of rigid
pipe, copper pipe or an approved flex connector.
(If you are using rigid pipe, ensure that the
valve can be removed for servicing.) Since some
municipalities have additional local codes it is
always best to consult with your local authorities
and the CSA B149.1 installation code.
For USA installations follow local codes and/
or the current National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI
Z223.1.
When using copper or flex connectors use only
approved fittings. Always provide a union so
that gas lines can be easily disconnected for
servicing. Flare nuts for copper lines and flex
connectors are usually considered to meet
this requirement.
Important: Always check for gas leaks
with a soap and water solution or gas
leak detector. Do not use open flame for
leak testing.
