FOR SAFE AND PROPER OPERATION OF THE STOVE,
FOLLOW THE VENTING INSTRUCTIONS EXACTLY.

This application occurs when venting through an exterior
wall. Having determined the air terminal location, cut and
frame a hole in an exterior wall with a minimum square or
round opening of 9". (As an alternative to framing, a vent
pipe shield may be installed, ensuring a 1" clearance to
combustibles.)

FOR OPTIMUM PERFORMANCE, THE STOVE PIPE SHOULD RISE
¼" PER FOOT OF RUN.

1. Mark and cut the vent pipe shield to the determined

depth of the combustible wall. Apply a bead of caulking
(not supplied) to the framework or to the shield plate (in the
case of a finished wall) and secure the shield through the
opening to the interior wall. The final location of the vent
pipe shield should maintain the required clearance to the
7" vent pipe. Do not fill this cavity with any type of material.
Apply a bead of caulking all around and place a firestop
spacer over the vent shield to restrict cold air from being
drawn into the room or around the stove. Ensure that both
spacer and shield maintain the required clearance to
combustibles. Once the vent pipe is installed in its final
position, apply sealant between the pipe and the firestop
spacer.
