W415-1935 / A / 05.07.19EN12venting requirements2.0 venting requirements! WARNING• Risk of fire. Maintain specifi ed air space clearances to vent pipe and appliance.• The vent system must be supported every 3’(0.9m) for both vertical and horizontal runs. Use support ringassembly W010-0067 or equivalent non-combustible strapping to maintain the minimum clearance tocombustibles for both vertical and horizontal runs. Spacers are attached to the inner pipe at predeterminedintervals to maintain an even air gap to the outer pipe. This gap is required for safe operation. A spacer isrequired at the start, middle, and end of each elbow to ensure this gap is maintained. These spaces mustnot be removed.This appliance uses a 5” (127mm) exhaust / 8” (203.2mm) air intake vent pipe system. Refer to thesection applicable to your installation.For safe and proper operation of the appliance follow the venting instructions exactly. Deviation from theminimum vertical vent length can create difficulty in burner start-up and/or carboning. Under extreme ventconfigurations, allow several minutes (5-15) for the fl ame to stabilize after ignition. Although not a requirement,it is recommended for vent lengths that pass through unheated spaces (attics, garages, crawl spaces) beinsulated with the insulation wrapped in a protective sleeve to minimize condensation. Provide a means forvisually checking the vent connection to the appliance after the appliance is installed. Use a fi restop, vent pipeshield or attic insulation shield when penetrating interior walls, floor or ceiling.The vent terminal may be painted with a high temperature paint to match exterior colours. Use an outdoor paintsuitable for 400°F (200°C). Application and performance of paint is the consumer’s responsibility. Spot testing isrecommended.For vent systems that provide seals on the inner exhaust flue, only the outer air intake joints must be sealed usinga red high temperature silicone (RTV). This same sealant may be used on both the inner exhaust and outer intakevent pipe joints of all other approved vent systems except for the exhaust vent pipe connection to the appliancefl ue collar which must be sealed using the black high temperature sealant Mill Pac.For optimum flame appearance and appliance performance, keep the vent length and number of elbows toa minimum.The air terminal must remain unobstructed at all times. Examine the air terminal at least once a yearto verify that it is unobstructed and undamaged.VentManufacturerStarter Adapter PartNumber Supplier WebsiteDuravent W175-0170 Wolf Steel www.duravent.comAmerivent 5DSC-N2 American Metal www.americanmetalproducts.comDirect Temp 5DT-AAN Selkirk www.selkirkcorp.comSuperSeal 5DNA Metal-Fab www.mtlfab.comUse only Wolf Steel, Simpson Dura-Vent, Selkirk Direct Temp, American Metal Amerivent or Metal-Fab ventingcomponents.

For Simpson Dura-Vent, Selkirk Direct Temp, American Metal Amerivent and Metal-Fab,follow the installation procedure provided with the venting components. A starter adaptor must be used with thefollowing vent systems and may be purchased from the corresponding supplier:If for any reason the vent air intake system is disassembled; reinstall per the instructions provided for theinitial installation.This appliance must be installed with a continuous connection of exhaust and air intake vent pipes. Utilizingalternate constructions, such as a chimney as part of the vent system, is not permitted.note:This template must be used in conjunction with templates 7.2.1 or 7.2.2, depending on termina-tion shape (i.e. round, or round and square). See appropriate templates folder.When using Wolf Steel venting components, use only approved Wolf Steel rigid / flexible components with thefollowing termination kits: wall terminal kit GD422R-2, or 1/12 to 7/12 pitch roof terminal kit GD410, 8/12 to12/12 roof terminal kit GD411, fl at roof terminal kit GD412 or periscope kit GD401 (for wall penetration belowgrade). With flexible venting, in conjunction with the various terminations, use either the 5 foot (1.5m) vent kitGD420 or the 10 foot (3.1m) vent kit GD430.
