Rear Wall Vent Installation

Step 1

Locate and cut the vent opening in the wall.

For combustible walls first frame in opening (Fig. 16).

Combustible Walls: Cut a 10

”H x 9

³⁄₈

” W (265 mm

x 240 mm) hole through the exterior wall and frame as
shown.

Noncombustible Walls: Hole opening should be 7

¹⁄₂

(190 mm) in diameter.

Zero clearance sleeve is only required
for combustible walls.

Step 2

Measure wall thickness, and cut zero clearance sleeve
to proper length; i.e., max. 12” (304.8 mm). Assemble
sleeve to its maximum opening (10

attach to firestop with #8 sheet metal screws
(supplied). Install firestop assembly (Fig. 17).

Step 3

venting including a 2” (50 mm) overlap, i.e. from the
elbow to the outside wall face plus 2” (50 mm)

Twist Lock Pipes

When using Vermont Castings, Majestic Products
twist-lock pipe it is not necessary to use sealant on the
joints. The only areas of the venting system that need
to be sealed with high temperature silicone sealant
are the collars on the fireplace and termination, and
the sliding joint of any telescopic vent section used in
the system.

To join twist lock pipes together, simply align the beads
of the male end with the grooves of the female end,
twisting the pipe until the flange on the female end
contacts external flange on the male end. It is recom-
mended that you secure the joints with three (3) sheet
metal screws, however this is not mandatory with twist
lock pipe (Fig. 14).

To make it easier to assemble the joints we suggest
putting a lubricant (Vaseline or similar) on the male
end of the twist lock pipe prior to assembly.
