elbows necessary to reach from the appliance
adapter up through the Round Support Box.
Insure that all pipe and elbow connections are
in their fully twist-locked position.
5. Cut hole in the roof centered on the small
hole placed in the roof from Step 2. The hole
should be of sufficient size to meet minimum
requirements for Clearance to Combustibles,
as specified. Continue to assemble lengths of
pipe and elbows necessary to reach from the
ceiling support box up through the roof line.
Galvanized pipe and elbows may be utilized in
the attic, as well as above the roof line. The
galvanized finish is desirable above the roof

1. Check the instructions for required clearances (air spaces) to combustibles when passing through
ceilings, walls, roofs, enclosures, attic rafters, or other nearby combustible surfaces. Do not pack air
spaces with insulation.
2. Set the gas appliance in the desired location. Drop a plumb bob down from the ceiling to the position
of the appliance flue exit, and mark the location where the vent will penetrate the ceiling. Drill a small
hole at this point. Next, drop a plumb bob from the roof to the hole previously drilled in the ceiling,
mark the spot where the vent will penetrate the roof. Determine if ceiling joists, roof rafters, or other
