Vertical Through the Roof Applications (Figure 62)

Your Gas Fireplace has been approved for:

a) Vertical installations up to 40 feet in height.

b) Two sets of 45 degree elbow offsets within these vertical

installations. From 0 to a maximum of 8 ft. a vent pipe can be

used between elbows.

c) Wall straps must be used to support offset pipe every 4'.
This application will require that you first determine the roof pitch

and use the appropriate venting components.

CAUTION: Treatment of firestop spacers and construction of

the chase may vary with the type of building. These instructions

are not substitutes for the requirements of local building codes.

Therefore, your local building codes must be checked to determine

the requirements for these steps.
NOTE: When installing this vent system in a chase, it is always

good building practice to insulate the chase as you would the

outside walls of your home. This is especially important for cold

climate installations. Upon completion of building your chase

framing, install the vent system by following the instructions in

this manual. Remember to build the chase large enough so that

minimum clearance of combustible materials (including insulation)

to the vent system are maintained.
Reassembly and Resealing Vent Pipe System

Attach vent pipe to inlet and outlet vent adaptor on fireplace,

replace horizontal and vertical pipe lengths, elbows and horizontal

or vertical termination kit.
All vent system components lock into place by sliding the concentric

pipe section with four (4) equally spaced interior beads onto the

appliance collar or previously installed component end with four

(4) equally spaced indented sections. When the internal beads of

each starting outer pipe line up, rotate pipe section clockwise 90°

(approximately 3 inches). The vent pipe is now locked together.
Continue replacing components per the vent system configuration.

Be certain that each succeeding vent component is securely fitted

and locked into the preceding component in the vent system.
