Begin the vent system installation by selecting the type of venting
to be installed and the path that it will take. Verify that clearances
are met throughout the path of the venting system.
Determine how the vent system will be terminated out the side of
the house or through the roof. Verify clearances for the termination.
When selecting a vent system for use with the fireplace, refer to the
“Vent Fireplace” section in this manual to determine what systems
are acceptable. Check all clearances and venting components.
Identify problems existing in the vent system, if any. Use pages 20
to 27 for venting to eliminate issues after installation. Check pipe
diameter on vent system and fireplace to verify the size is the same.
NOTICE: All outer connection joints must be sealed with
aluminum tape, screws or silicone sealant rated above
300°F/149°C. The inner flue joints do not require any sealant.
