If the foundation is recessed, use recess brackets (not
supplied) for securing lower portion of the snorkel.
Fasten brackets to wall first, then secure to snorkel
with self drilling #8 x 1/2 sheet metal screws. It will be
necessary to extend vent pipes out as far as protruding
wall face. (Fig. 35)

Vertical Through-the-Roof Applications

This Gas Fireplace has been approved for:
1. Vertical installations up to 40’ (12 m) in height. Up to

10’ (3 m) horizontal vent run can be installed within
the vent system using a maximum of three 90°
elbows.

2. Up to two 45° elbows may be used within the

horizontal run. For each 45° elbow used on the
horizontal level the maximum horizontal length must
be reduced by 18” (457 mm).

1 x 45° elbows = 8¹⁄₂’ (2.6 m)
2 x 45° elbows = 7’ (2.1 m)
3. A minimum of an 8’ vertical rise.
4. Two sets of 45° elbows offsets within these vertical

installations. From 0 to a maximum of 8’ (2.4 m) of
vent pipe can be used between elbows. (Fig. 37)

5. 7DVCS must be used to support offsets. (Fig. 36)

This application will require that you first determine

4. Proceed to plumb for additional openings through

the roof. In all cases, the opening must provide a
minimum of 1 inch clearance to the vent pipe, i.e.,
the hole must be at least 9³⁄₈” x 9³⁄₈” (240 x 240 mm).
