G..Continue installation of horizontal/inclined

sections -.Continue.with.the.installation.of.the.

straight.vent.sections.in.horizontal/inclined.run.

as.described.in.Step C..Install.support.straps.

every. 3'. (914. mm). along. horizontal/inclined.

vent.runs.using.conventional.plumber’s.tape..

See Page 17, Figure 28..It is very important

that the horizontal/inclined run be maintained

in a straight (no dips) and recommend to be in

a slightly elevated plane, in a direction away

from the fireplace 1/4" per foot (20 mm per

meter) which is ideal,.through.rise.per.foot.run.

ratios.that.are.smaller.are.acceptable.all.the.way.

down.to.at.or.near.level...Use.a.carpenter’s.level.

to.measure.from.a.constant.surface.and.adjust.

the.support.straps.as.necessary..

It is important to maintain the required clear-

ances to combustibles: 1" (25 mm) at all sides

for all vertical runs; and 3" (76 mm) at the top,

1" (25 mm) at sides, and 1" (25 mm) at the

bottom for all horizontal/inclined runs.

H..Frame roof opening -.Identify.location.for.

vent.at.the.roof..Cut.and/or.frame.opening.per.

One.method.of.support.is.by.utilizing.field.pro-

vided.support.straps.(conventional.plumber's.

tape)..Secure.the.plumber's.tape.to.the.framing.

members.with.nails.or.screws. Strap.the.tape.

around.the.vent,.securing.the.ends.of.the.tape.

to.the.framing..If.desired,.sheet.metal.screws.#6.

x.1/2".length.may.be.used.to.secure.the.support.

straps.to.the.vent.pipe...See.Figure 20.

F. Change vent direction to horizontal/inclined

run -.At.transition.from.or.to.a.horizontal/inclined.

run,.install.the.SV8.E45.and.SV8.E90.elbows.in.

the.same.manner.as.the.straight.vent.sections...

The.elbows.feature.a.twist.section.to.allow.them.

to.be.routed.about.the.center.axis.of.their.initial.

collar.section.to.align.with.the.required.direc-

tion.of.the.next.vent.run.element..Twist elbow

sections in a clockwise direction only so as

to avoid the possibility of unlocking any of

the previously connected vent sections..See.

Figure 19 on Page 14 and Figure 21.

the.previously.installed.section,.adjusting.the.

radial.alignment.until.the.four.locking.dimples.

of.the.termination.are.aligned.with.the.inlets.of.

the.four.incline.channels.of.the.last.vent.section...

Push.the.termination.down.until.it.fully.engages,.

then.twist.the.termination.clockwise.running.the.

dimples.down.and.along.the.incline.channels.

until.they.seat.at.the.end.of.the.channels.

I..Install the roof flashing - Extend.the.vent.

sections.through.the.roof.structure..Install.the.

roof.flashing.over.the.vent.section.and.posi-

tion.such.that.the.vent.column.rises.vertically.

(use.carpenters.level).(Figure 23)..Nail.along.

perimeter.to.secure.flashing.or.adjust.roofing.

to.overlap.the.flashing.edges.at.top.and.sides.

only.and.trim.where.necessary..Seal.the.top.

and.both.sides.of.the.flashing.with.waterproof.

caulking.

J. Install the storm collar -.Install.the.storm.

collar,. supplied. with. the. flashing,. over. the.

vent/flashing. joint. (see. Figure 23). . Loosen.

the.storm.collar.screw..Slide.collar.down.until.

it.meets.the.top.of.the.flashing..Tighten.the.ad-

justing.screw..Apply.non-combustible.caulking.

or.mastic.around.the.circumference.of.the.joint.

to.provide.a.water.tight.seal.
