Vertical Sidewall Installation

STEP 1
Locate vent opening on the wall. It may be necessary

to first position the fireplace and measure to obtain hole

location. Depending on whether the wall is combustible

or noncombustible, cut opening to size. (Fig. 25)
For combustible walls first frame in opening.
Combustible Walls (Fig. 25): Cut a 9³⁄₈”H x 9³⁄₈” W

(240 x 240mm) hole through the exterior wall and

frame.
Noncombustible Walls (Fig. 25): Hole opening must

be 7.5” (190mm) in diameter.

STEP 2
Measure wall thickness and cut adjustable zero

clearance sleeve parts to proper length (MAXIMUM

12”/305mm). (Fig. 26) Adjust sleeve to minimum (9³⁄₈” x

9³⁄₈” and attach to firestop with #8 sheet metal screws

(supplied). Assemble sleeve and attach to firestop with

#8 sheet metal screws (supplied). Install firestop as-

sembly.

Zero clearance sleeve is only required for

combustible walls.

STEP 3
Apply a bead of high temperature sealant to the inner

and outer flue collars of the fireplace and using ap-

propriate venting component(s) attach to fireplace with

three (3) screws. (Fig. 27) Follow with the installation

of the inner and outer elbow. Again secure joints with

three (3) sheet metal screws. Wipe off any excess high

temperature sealant.

STEP 4
Measure the horizontal length requirement including a

2” (50mm) overlap, i.e. from the elbow to the outside

wall finish plus 2”, or the distance required if installing a

second 90° elbow. (Fig. 28)
STEP 5
Use appropriate length of pipe section - telescopic or

fixed - and install the horizontal vent sections. The 20”

(508mm) section of pipe which goes through the wall is

packaged with the 7TDVSK starter kit, and can be cut

to suit if necessary. (Fig. 29)

Sealing vent pipe and firestop gaps with

high temperature sealant will restrict cold

air being drawn in around fireplace.
