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.
A terminal shall not terminate directly above a sidewalk or paved driveway which is located between two sin-
gle family dwellings and serves both dwellings. Local codes or regulations may require different clearances.
Do not allow the inside liner to bunch up on horizontal or vertical runs and elbows. Keep it pulled tight.
A 1-1/4" air gap all around between the inner liner and outer appliance pipe is required for safe opera-
tion. Use a firestop when penetrating interior walls, floor or ceiling.

W415-0153 / E / 05.28.12
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.
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, flat
roof terminal kit GD112 or periscope kit GD180 (for wall penetration below grade) in conjunction with the appropriate
venting components.
For optimum flame 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” rise per foot. 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 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. 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.
Deviation from the minimum vertical vent length can create difficulty in burner start-up and/or carboning.
Use an adjustable pipe as the final length of rigid piping to the stove for ease of installation.

For vent configurations requiring more than one 90° elbow, the following formulas apply:
Formula 1: HT< VT
Formula 2: HT+ VT< 40 feet
Example:
V1= 3 FT
V2= 8 FT
VT= V1+ V2= 3 FT + 8 FT = 11 FT
H1= 2.5 FT
H2= 2 FT
HR= H1+ H2= 2.5 + 2 = 4.5 FT
HO= .03 (three 90° elbows - 90°) = .03 (270° - 90°) = 5.4 FT
HT= HR+ HO= 4.5 + 5.4 = 9.9 FT
HT+ VT= 9.9 + 11 = 20.9 FT
Formula 1: HT< VT

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.
!
WARNING
RISK OF FIRE!
CO-AXIAL TO CO-LINEAR VENTING CONFIGURATIONS MUST ONLY BE USED IN A NON-
COMBUSTIBLE CHIMNEY OR ENCLOSURE. INSTALLATION IN A COMBUSTIBLE ENCLOSURE COULD
