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 a 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.
We suggest that our gas
hearth products be installed
and serviced by professionals
who are certied in the U.S.

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.

W415-0895 / C / 03.13.12
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.

3.10 VERTICAL THROUGH EXISTING CHIMNEY
7.6
This appliance is designed to be attached to a 3” co-linear aluminum flex vent system running the full length
of a masonry chimney.
The flex liners accommodate any contours of a masonry chimney, however, it is necessary to keep the flexible
liners as straight as possible. The inlet air collar of the termination cap must be connected to the air intake flex
liner and the exhaust collar must be connected to
the exhaust flexible liner.
Both Simpson Duravent and Selkirk co-linear
to co-axial adaptors have been approved on
this appliance (NOTE: A vent adaptor will be
required directly off the appliance).
Follow vent manufacturer’s installation
instructions.
Different manufacturer’s venting components
must not be combined. Once the preferred
manufacturer’s appliance adaptor has been
attached, the remainder of the system must
be that of the same manufacturer.
The only exception to this rule is to use Wolf
Steel’s approved 3” flex liner and co-linear
termination.

WHICH MUST BE SEALED USING MILL PAC.
IF USING PIPE CLAMPS TO CONNECT VENT COMPONENTS, 3 SCREWS MUST ALSO BE USED TO
ENSURE THE CONNECTION CANNOT SLIP OFF.
DO NOT CLAMP THE FLEXIBLE VENT PIPE.
RISK OF FIRE, EXPLOSION OR ASPHYXIATION. IMPROPER SUPPORT OF THE ENTIRE VENTING
SYSTEM MAY ALLOW VENT TO SAG AND SEPARATE. USE VENT RUN SUPPORTS AND CONNECT
VENT SECTIONS PER INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS.
RISK OF FIRE, DO NOT ALLOW LOOSE MATERIALS OR INSULATION TO TOUCH THE VENT PIPE.
REMOVE INSULATION TO ALLOW FOR THE INSTALLATION OF THE ATTIC SHIELD AND TO
MAINTAIN CLEARANCES TO COMBUSTIBLES.

!
WARNING
DO NOT FILL THE SPACE BETWEEN THE VENT PIPE AND ENCLOSURE WITH ANY TYPE OF
MATERIAL. DO NOT PACK INSULATION OR COMBUSTIBLES BETWEEN CEILING FIRESTOPS.
ALWAYS MAINTAIN SPECIFIED CLEARANCES AROUND VENTING AND FIRESTOP SYSTEMS.
INSTALL WALL SHIELDS AND FIRESTOPS AS SPECIFIED. FAILURE TO KEEP INSULATION OR
OTHER MATERIALS AWAY FROM VENT PIPE MAY CAUSE FIRE.

For shipping purposes, the heat shield has been attached on top of the appliance.
If venting with a 90 degree elbow directly off of the top of the appliance, the elbow heat shield must be reposi-
tioned and secured with the two screws (supplied) as illustrated.
The heat shield can be adjusted up to a maximum of 18”. Remove the two screws as illustrated to adjust the
shield. If the elbow height exceeds this height, the use of the shield is no longer required.

4.1.1 HORIZONTAL INSTALLATION
This application occurs when venting through an exterior wall.
Having determined the correct height for the air terminal
location, cut and frame a hole in the exterior wall as
illustrated to accommodate the firestop assembly.
Dry fit the firestop assembly before proceeding to
ensure the brackets on the rear surface fit to the
inside surface of the horizontal framing.
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.
A
. Apply a bead of caulking (not supplied) around the corner edge of
the inside surface of the firestop assembly, fit the firestop
assembly to the hole and secure using the 4 screws (supplied in your
manual baggie).
B. Once the vent pipe is installed in its final position, apply high temperature sealant W573-0007 (not
supplied) between the pipe and the firestop.

RETURN FLANGE OF THE MOUNTING PLATE.
This application occurs when venting through a roof. Installation kits for
various roof pitches are available from your authorized dealer / distributor. See
accessories to order specific kits required.
A. Determine the air terminal location, cut and frame a square opening as
illustrated in the ceiling and the roof to provide the minimum 1“ clearance
between the vent pipe and any combustible material. Try to center the vent
pipe location midway between two joists to prevent having to cut them. Use
a plumb bob to line up the center of the openings. A vent pipe shield will
prevent any materials such as insulation, from filling up the 1” air space
around the pipe. Nail headers between the joist for extra support.
B. Apply a bead of caulking (not supplied) to the framework or to the Wolf
Steel vent pipe shield plate or equivalent (in the case of a finished
ceiling), and secure over the opening in the ceiling. A firestop must be
placed on the bottom of each framed opening in a roof or ceiling that the
venting system passes through. 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 fireplace. 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 assembly.
C. In the attic, slide the vent pipe collar down to cover up the open end of the shield and
tighten. This will prevent any materials, such as insulation, from filling up the 1” air space
around the pipe.
