6. Install the elbow using 3 sheet metal screws at each
joint.
7. Measure, and cut if necessary, the appropriate
length of pipe section needed to make the connec-
tion through the wall. Include a 2” overlap; i.e. from
the elbow to the outside wall face, about 2” or the
distance required if installing a second 90
°
elbow.
(Fig. 34)
8. Slip the wall plate and trim collar over the interior
end of the horizontal pipe and install into the wall
sleeve. Seal the joint inside the wall plate if needed
to keep cold air from being drawn into the home.
9. Connect the horizontal pipe to the elbow. Fasten the
wall plate to the pipe with three sheet metal screws.
Slide the trim collar up against the wall plate to cover
the screws. (Fig. 35)
10.Install the vent terminal. (Fig. 36) Guide the inner
and outer vent termination collars into the adjacent
pipes. Double check that the vent pipes overlap the
collars by 2”. Fasten the termination to the wall with
the screws provided, and caulk the joint with weath-
erproof sealant.
11.Install Charcoal Gray Pipe Rings (#7FSDRG) or
Polished Brass Pipe Rings (#7FSDRP) at pipe
joints, if desired.
Side Wall Termination Assembly
1. Locate the vent opening on the wall. Refer to
Figures 27 & 28, to determine the minimum
centerline of wall opening. It may be necessary to
first position the stove and measure to find the hole
location. Depending on whether the wall is made of
combustible materials, cut the opening to the size
shown in Figure 31. Combustible wall openings
must be framed as shown in Figure 31.
2. Measure the wall thickness and cut the wall sleeve
sections to proper length (MAXIMUM 12”). Assemble
the sleeve with the #8 sheet metal screws supplied.
Attach the firestop plate to the sleeve end with the
holes. (Fig. 32) NOTE: The wall sleeve is required
in combustible walls only.
3. Install the Wall Firestop/Sleeve assembly into the
wall cutout and fasten the firestop to the wall cutout
framing members. (Fig. 32)
4. If necessary, measure to determine the vertical
length (X) of pipe required from the first (transition)
elbow to the wall cutout centerline, including a 2”
overlap at the joint. (Fig. 33) Use a hacksaw or tin
snips to trim the pipe as needed.
5. Install first the inner then the outer straight pipe
section(s), trimmed end down, to the point of the
elbow. Drill 3 holes through each joint and fasten
with sheet metal screws.
