STEP 6
Apply high temperature sealant to 4” (102 mm) and 7”

(178 mm) collars or the termination one inch away from

the end. Guide the vent terminationʼs 4” and 7” collars

into their respective vent pipes. Double check that the

vent pipes overlap the collars by 2” (50 mm). Secure the

termination to the wall with screws provided and caulk

around the wall plate to weatherproof. (Fig. 30)
STEP 7
Support the horizontal pipes every 36” (914 mm) with

metal pipe straps. Make sure that the horizontal vent

pipe is installed on a level horizontal plane.
STEP 8
Re-check the fireplace to make sure that it is levelled,

properly positioned, and nailed or screwed to the floor.

If applied, the fireplaces adjustable frame drywall strips

(nailing flanges) should be fastened. Refer to “Framing

& Finishing”.

Below Grade Installations

When it is not possible to meet the required vent ter-

minal clearances of 12” (305mm) above grade level a

snorkel vent kit #7TDVSNORK is required. It allows

installation depth of down to 7” (178 mm) below grade

level. The 7” is measured from the center of the hori-

zontal vent pipe as it penetrates through the wall.

If venting system is installed below

ground, we recommend a window well with

adequate and proper drainage.

Ensure sidewall venting clearances are observed.

The maximum horizontal run with 24”

vertical rise is 36” (914 mm) from the

back of the fireplace to the face of the

exterior wall. See vent graph (Page 12) for

extended horizontal run if the vertical rise

exceeds 24” (610 mm).

1. Establish vent hole through the wall. (Fig. 25)

2. Remove soil to a depth of approximately 16”

(406mm) below base of snorkel. Install window

well (not supplied). Refill hole with 12” (305 mm) of

coarse gravel leaving a clearance of approximately

4” (102 mm) below snorkel. (Fig. 31)

3. Install vent system. See Page 13, Steps 2 through 5.

4. Ensure a watertight seal is made around the vent

pipe coming through the wall.

5. Apply high temperature sealant caulking (supplied)

around the 4” and 7” snorkel collars.

6. Slide into the vent pipe and secure to the wall.

7. Level the soil to maintain a 4” (102 mm) clearance

below snorkel. (Fig. 31)
