minimum of 1¹⁄₂" (38mm) clearance to the vent pipe,
i.e., the hole must be at least 14¹⁄₂" x 14¹⁄₂" (368mm
x 368mm).

AIS-SK into position and secure. (Figs. 32, 33)

making sure upper flange of flashing is below the
shingles.
8. Install appropriate pipe sections until the venting is
above the flashing.
NOTE: Tape the inner and outer flue collars of the
fireplace using UL approved metal adhesive tape to
ensure the joints are sealed.
9. Seal around the pipe.
10. Add additional vent lengths for proper height. (Fig.
