2.2 GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
4.1A
THIS GAS APPLIANCE SHOULD BE INSTALLED AND SERVICED BY A QUALIFIED INSTALLER to
conform with local codes. Installation practices vary from region to region and it is important to know the
specifics that apply to your area, for example in Massachusetts State:
• This product must be installed by a licensed plumber or gas fitter when installed within the commonwealth
of Massachusetts.
• The appliance damper must be removed or welded in the open position prior to installation of an appliance
insert or gas log.
• The appliance off valve must be a “T” handle gas cock.
• The flexible connector must not be longer than 36 inches.
• A Carbon Monoxide detector is required in all rooms containing gas fired appliances.
• The appliance is not approved for installation in a bedroom or bathroom unless the unit is a direct vent
sealed combustion product.
The installation must conform with local codes or, in
absence of local codes, the National Gas and Propane
Installation Code CSA B149.1 in Canada, or the National
Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1 / NFPA 54 in the United
States. Suitable for mobile home installation if installed in
accordance with the current standard CAN/CSA Z240MH
Series, for gas equipped mobile homes, in Canada or
A
NSI Z223.1 and NFPA 54 in the United States.
A
s long as the required clearance to combustibles is
maintained, the most desirable and beneficial location
for an appliance is in the center of a building, thereby
allowing the most efficient use of the heat created. The location of windows, doors and the traffic flow in the
room where the appliance is to be located should be considered. If possible, you should choose a location
where the vent will pass through the house without cutting a floor or roof joist.
If the appliance is installed directly on carpeting, vinyl tile or other combustible material other than wood
flooring, the appliance shall be installed on a metal or wood panel extending the full width and depth.
Some appliances have optional fans or blowers. If an optional fan or blower is installed, the junction box must
be electrically connected and grounded in accordance with local codes, use the current CSA C22.1 Canadian
Electrical Code in Canada or the ANSI/NFPA 70 National Electrical code in the United States.

3.0 VENTING
7.1A
THIS APPLIANCE USES A 4” EXHAUST / 7” AIR INTAKE VENT PIPE SYSTEM.
Refer to the section applicable to your installation.
For safe and proper operation of the appliance follow the venting instruction exactly. Deviation from the
minimum vertical vent length can create difficulty in burner start-up and/or carboning. Under extreme vent
configurations, allow several minutes (5-15) for the flame to stabilize after ignition. Provide a means for
visually checking the vent connection to the appliance after the appliance is installed. Use a firestop, vent pipe
shield or attic insulation shield when penetrating interior walls, floor or ceiling.
NOTE: If for any reason the vent air intake system is disassembled; reinstall per the instructions
provided for the initial installation.
!
WARNING
RISK OF FIRE, MAINTAIN SPECIFIED AIR SPACE CLEARANCES TO VENT PIPE AND APPLIANCE.
IF VENTING IS INCLUDED WITH SPACERS THE VENT SYSTEM MUST BE SUPPORTED EVERY 3 FEET
FOR BOTH VERTICAL AND HORIZONTAL RUNS. USE SUPPORTS OR EQUIVALENT
NON-COMBUSTIBLE STRAPPING TO MAINTAIN THE REQUIRED CLEARANCE FROM
COMBUSTIBLES. USE WOLF STEEL LTD. SUPPORT RING ASSEMBLY W010-0370 OR EQUIVALENT
NON-COMBUSTIBLE STRAPPING TO MAINTAIN THE MINIMUM CLEARANCE TO COMBUSTIBLES
FOR BOTH VERTICAL AND HORIZONTAL RUNS. SPACERS ARE ATTACHED TO THE INNER PIPE AT
PREDETERMINED INTERVALS TO MAINTAIN AN EVEN AIR GAP TO THE OUTER PIPE. THIS GAP IS
REQUIRED FOR SAFE OPERATION. A SPACER IS REQUIRED AT THE START, MIDDLE AND END OF
EACH ELBOW TO ENSURE THIS GAP IS MAINTAINED. THESE SPACERS MUST NOT BE REMOVED.
When venting straight out the back, only the rigid vent can be used. DO NOT USE FLEXIBLE VENT. For all
other venting configurations, flexible vent is acceptable.

W415-0672 / C / 08.13.12
3.1 VENTING LENGTHS AND COMPONENTS
Use only Wolf Steel, Simpson Dura-Vent, Selkirk Direct Temp, American Metal Amerivent or Metal-Fab venting
components. Minimum and maximum vent lengths, for both horizontal and vertical installations, and air terminal
locations for either system are set out in this manual and must be adhered to. 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 the following vent systems and may be purchased from the corresponding supplier:
For Simpson Dura-Vent, Selkirk Direct Temp,American Metal Amerivent and Metal-Fab follow the installation
procedure found on the website for your venting supplier.
For vent systems that provide seals on the inner exhaust flue, only the outer air intake joints must be sealed using a red
high temperature silicone (RTV). This same sealant may be used on both the inner exhaust and outer intake vent pipe
joints of all other approved vent systems except for the exhaust vent pipe connection to the appliance flue collar which must
be sealed using the black high temperature sealant Mill Pac. High temperature sealant must be ordered separately.
When using Wolf Steel venting components, use only approved Wolf Steel rigid / flexible components with the following
termination kits: wall terminal kit GD222, GD222R, or 1/12 to 7/12 pitch roof terminal kit GD110, 8/12 to 12/12 roof terminal
kit GD111, flat roof terminal kit GD112 or periscope kit GD201 (for wall penetration below grade). With flexible venting, in
conjunction with the various terminations, use either the 5 foot vent kit GD220 or the 10 foot vent kit GD330.
For optimum flame appearance and appliance performance, keep the vent length and number of elbows to a minimum.
The air terminal must remain unobstructed at all times. Examine the air terminal at least once a year to verify that
it is unobstructed and undamaged.
Rigid and flexible venting systems must not be combined. Different venting manufacturer components must not
be combined.
These vent kits allow for either horizontal or vertical venting of the appliance. The maximum allowable horizontal run is 20
feet. The maximum allowable vertical vent length is 40 feet. The maximum number of vent connections is two horizontally
or three vertically (excluding the appliance and the air terminal connections) when using flexible venting.

3.8 HORIZONTAL TERMINATION
For vent configurations requiring more than two 90° elbows, the following formulas apply:
Formula 1: HT< VT
Formula 2: HT+ VT < 40 feet
Example:
V1 = 9 FT
V2 = 6 FT
VT = V1 + V2 = 9 + 6 = 15 FT
H1 = 3 FT
H2 = 2 FT
H3 = 1.5 FT
HR = H1 + H2 + H3 = 3 + 2 + 1.5 = 6.5 FT
HO = .03 (four 90° elbows - 90°) = .03 (360° - 90°) = 8.1 FT
HT =HR + HO = 6.5 + 8.1 = 14.6 FT
HT + VT = 14.6 + 15 = 29.6 FT
Formula 1: HT < VT
14.6 < 15
Formula 2: HT + VT < 40 FT
29.6 < 40
Since both formulas are met, this vent configuration is acceptable.

4.1.1 HORIZONTAL INSTALLATION
A. Assemble the two halves of the vent sleeve by aligning the holes that
come together to make a rectangular shape (lip to the outside). Secure
using 6 of the screws supplied in the manual baggie.
NOTE: Screws not required in two blind holes.
B. Fit the firestop spacer into one end of the vent sleeve and secure through
the aligned holes on the top, bottom, and sides with the remaining 5
screws supplied.
If flexible venting is to be used remove the rigid firestop spacer.
The remaining hole is sized for flexible venting.
This application occurs when venting through an exterior wall.
Having determined the air terminal location, cut and frame a hole
in the exterior wall 9 7/8” wide by 11 3/8” high to accommodate the
firestop sleeve assembly.
The length of the vent shield may be cut shorter for combustible
walls that are less than 8 1/2” thick but the vent
shield must extend the full depth of the combustible
wall.
C. Insert the firestop sleeve assembly into the wall,
mark the wall depth and trim the vent sleeve to suit.
The screws that secure the vent sleeve may need
to be repositioned to ensure a rigid assembly is
maintained.
D. Apply a bead of caulking (not supplied) to the
inside surface of the firestop flange and secure the
assembly to the wall. (Ensure that the rectangular
shaped assembly is installed to maintain 2” from the top
of the vent).
E. Once the vent pipe is installed in it’s final position, apply high
temperature sealant W573-0002 (not supplied) between the
pipe and the firestop.
