2.2 GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
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 3 feet (91.4cm).
•
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 ANSI Z223.1 and NFPA 54 in the United
States.
As 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
THIS APPLIANCE USES A 4” (102mm) EXHAUST / 7” (178mm) 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. Although not a
requirement, it is recommended for vent lengths that pass through unheated spaces (attics, garages, crawl
spaces) be insulated with the insulation wrapped in a protective sleeve to minimize condensation. 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.
The vent terminal may be painted with a high temperature paint to match exterior colours. Use an outdoor
paint suitable for 400°F (204°C). Application and performance of paint is the consumer’s responsibility. Spot
testing is recommended.
NOTE: If for any reason the vent air intake system is disassembled; reinstall per the instructions
provided for the initial installation.
NOTE: This appliance must be installed with a continuous connection of exhaust and air intake vent
pipes. Utilizing alternate constructions such as a chimney as part of the vent system is not permitted.
!
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 3FT
(0.9m) 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.

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 fl ue, 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 fl ue collar
which must be sealed using the black high temperature sealant Mill Pac.
When using Wolf Steel venting components, use only approved Wolf Steel termination kits: wall terminal kit GD175
(7/12’ of venting included), or 1/12 to 7/12 pitch roof terminal kit GD110, 8/12 to 12/12 roof terminal kit GD111, fl at
roof terminal kit GD112 or periscope kit GD180 (for wall penetration below grade) in conjunction with the appropriate
venting components.
For optimum fl ame appearance and appliance operation, keep the vent length and number of elbows to a
minimum. It is recommended that all horizontal runs have a minimum 1/4” (6.4mm) rise per foot /meter. 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 fl exible venting systems must not be combined. Different
venting manufacturers 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 (6m). The maximum allowable vertical vent length is 40 feet (12m). The maximum number of vent
connections is two horizontally or three vertically (excluding the appliance and the air terminal connections) when
using fl exible venting.
Deviation from the minimum vertical vent length can create dif culty in burner start-up and/or carboning.
Use an adjustable pipe as the  nal length of rigid piping to the stove for ease of installation.

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.
68.2B
4.1 MINIMUM CLEARANCE TO COMBUSTIBLES
As long as clearance to combustibles is kept within required distances, the most desirable and benecial location for an appli-
ance is in the centre of a building, thereby allowing the most efcient use of the heat created. The location of windows, doors
and the trafc ow 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 oor or roof joist.
MAINTAIN THESE MINIMUM CLEARANCES TO COMBUSTIBLES:
A. 7" (178mm) B. 2" (51mm) C. 1" (25mm)*
D. 17 1/2" (445mm) E. 6 1/4" (159mm) F. 9 1/2" (241mm)
Minimum 20" (508mm) from appliance top to ceiling
* At a distance of 1" (25mm) from the wall, access to the blower switch, on-off switch or the blower power cord
may not be practical.

4.2 WALL AND CEILING PROTECTION
For clearances to combustible materials from the vent pipe, see “MINIMUM CLEARANCE TO
COMBUSTIBLES” section.
For optimum performance it is recommended that horizontal runs have a 1/4" (6.4mm) per rise per 1 ft (0.3m).
All inner exhaust and outer intake vent pipe joints may be sealed using either red high temp silicone sealant
or black high temp Mil Pac with the exception of the appliance exhaust flue collar which must be sealed using
Mil Pac (not supplied).
!
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.

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 restop assembly.
Dry t the restop assembly before proceeding to
ensure the brackets on the rear surface t 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”
(215.9mm)thick but the vent shield must extend the
full depth of the combustible wall.
A
. Assemble the shield to the spacer as shown,
using the 3 shorter screws supplied.
B. Place the restop top so that the vent shield covers the top
of the vent within the opening. Ensure that both spacer and
shield maintain the required clearance to combustibles.
C. Secure the spacer in place using the 4 longer screws supplied. Once the vent pipe is installed in its
nal position, apply sealant between the pipe and the restop spacer.
