B. Constructing the Appliance Chase
A chase is a vertical boxlike structure built to enclose the
gas appliance and/or its vent system. Vertical vents that run
on the outside of a building may be, but are not required
to be, installed inside a chase.
Construction of the chase may vary with the type of building.
These instructions are not substitutes for the requirements
of local building codes. Local building codes MUST be
checked.
Chases should be constructed in the manner of all outside
walls of the home to prevent cold air drafting problems.
The chase should not break the outside building envelope
in any manner.
Walls, ceiling, base plate and cantilever floor of the chase
should be insulated. Vapor and air infiltration barriers
should be installed in the chase as per regional codes for
the rest of the home. Additionally, in regions where cold
air infiltration may be an issue, the inside surfaces may be
sheetrocked and taped for maximum air tightness.
To further prevent drafts, the wall shield and ceiling firestops
should be caulked with high temperature caulk to seal gaps.
C. Clearances
Fire Risk.
• Construct chase to all clearance specifications
in manual.
• Locate and install appliance to all clearance
specifications in manual
Fire Risk.
Odor Risk.
• Install appliance on hard metal or wood surfaces
extending full width and depth of appliance.
• Do NOT install appliance directly on carpeting,
vinyl, tile or any combustible material other than
wood.
Gas line holes and other openings should be caulked with
high temp caulk or stuffed with unfaced insulation. If the
appliance is being installed on a cement slab, a layer of
plywood may be placed underneath to prevent conducting
cold up into the room.

(See Note 1)
(See Note 2)
NOTE 3: Local codes or regulations may require different
clearances.
NOTE 4: Termination caps may be hot. Consider their proximity to
doors or other traffic areas.
NOTE 5: Location of the vent termination must not interfere with
access to the electrical service.
WARNING: In the U.S: Vent system termination is NOT permitted in
screened porches. You must follow side wall, overhang and ground
clearances as stated in the instructions.
In Canada: Vent system termination is NOT permitted in screened
porches. Vent system termination is permitted in porch areas with
two or more sides open. You must follow all side walls, overhang
and ground clearances as stated in the instructions.

Asphyxiation Risk.
Do NOT connect this gas appliance to a chimney
flue serving a separate solid-fuel or gas burning
appliance.
• Vent this appliance directly outside.
• Use separate vent system for this appliance.
May impair safe operation of this appliance or
other appliances connected to the flue.
Figure 5.1
A. Vent Table Key
The abbreviations listed in this vent table key are used in
the vent diagrams.
C. Measuring Standards
Vertical and horizontal measurements listed in the vent
diagrams were made using the following standards.
1. Pipe measurements are shown using the effective length
of pipe (see Figure 5.2).
2. Measurements are made from the appliance outer wrap,
not from the standoffs.
3. Horizontal terminations are measured to the outside
mounting surface (flange of termination cap) (see Figure
4.1).
4. Vertical terminations are measured to bottom of termina-
tion cap.
5. Horizontal pipe installed level with no rise.

WARNING
CAUTION
ALL vent configuration specifications MUST be followed.
• This product is tested and listed to these specifications.
• Appliance performance will suffer if specifications are
not followed.
B. Use of Elbows
Diagonal runs have both vertical and horizontal vent
aspects when calculating the effects. Use the rise for the
vertical aspect and the run for the horizontal aspect (see
Figure 5.1).
Two 450elbows may be used in place of one 900elbow.
On 450runs, one foot of diagonal is equal to 8.5 inches
horizontal run and 8.5 inches vertical run. A length of
straight pipe is allowed between two 450elbows (see
Figure 5.1).

CLEARANCE
D. Use of Flex Vent
The flex vent must be supported with
the spacing between support intervals
not exceeding 4 feet, with no more than
½ inch sag between supports.
A support is required at each change
in venting direction, and in any location
where it is necessary to maintain the
necessary clearance to combustibles.
A simple “up and out” installation
(Figure 5.3) requires only enough
support to maintain the necessary
clearance to combustibles. However,
the vent attachment point and the
firestop location are considered to be
supports.

Fire Risk. Explosion Risk.
Do NOT pack insulation or other combustibles between ceiling firestops.
• ALWAYS maintain specified clearances around venting and firestop systems.
• Install wall shield and ceiling firestops as specified.
Failure to keep insulation or other material away from vent pipe may cause fire.

Baffle Instruction
1. Install the baffle over the center of the exhaust outlet in
the firebox (see Figure 5.8).
2. Center the exhaust opening in the open end of the
baffle, and secure through the slots on the baffle with
the 2-1/4 in. self tapping screws provided.
Baffles are recommended for these vertically terminated
products which have excessive draft. Baffles compensate
for high draft, restore visual flame height, and limit exces-
sive cooling resulting from too much secondary air. Refer
to the allowable vent configurations in the model specific
installer’s guide for recommended use of this baffle.
Note: Use SL D- Series
components only.
