WARNING

W415-0149 / D / 02.14.11

4.1A

THIS GAS APPLIANCE SHOULD BE INSTALLED AND SERVICED BY A QUALIFIED INSTALLER to

conform with local codes. Installation practices vary from region to region and it is important to know the

speciﬁcs that apply to your area, for example in Massachusetts State:

• This product must be installed by a licensed plumber or gas ﬁtter when installed within the commonwealth

of Massachusetts.

• The appliance damper must be removed or welded in the open position prior to installation of a appliance

insert or gas log.

• The appliance off valve must be a “T” handle gas cock.

• The ﬂexible connector must not be longer than 36 inches.

• A Carbon Monoxide detector is required in all rooms containing gas ﬁred appliances.

• The appliance is not approved for installation in a bedroom or bathroom unless the unit is a direct vent

sealed combustion product.

The installation must conform with local codes or, in

absence of local codes, the National Gas and Propane

Installation Code CSA B149.1 in Canada, or the National

Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1 / NFPA 54 in the United

States. Suitable for mobile home installation if installed in

accordance with the current standard CAN/CSA Z240MH

Series, for gas equipped mobile homes, in Canada or

NSI Z223.1 and NFPA 54 in the United States.

s long as the required clearance to combustibles is

maintained, the most desirable and beneﬁcial location for an appliance is in the center of a building, thereby

allowing the most efﬁcient use of the heat created. The location of windows, doors and the trafﬁc ﬂow in the

room where the appliance is to be located should be considered. If possible, you should choose a location

where the vent will pass through the house without cutting a ﬂoor or roof joist.

If the appliance is installed directly on carpeting, vinyl tile or other combustible material other than wood

ﬂooring, the appliance shall be installed on a metal or wood panel extending the full width and depth.

Some appliances have optional fans or blowers. If an optional fan or blower is installed, the junction box must

be electrically connected and grounded in accordance with local codes, use the current CSA C22.1 Canadian

Electrical Code in Canada or the ANSI/NFPA 70 National Electrical code in the United States.

We suggest that our gas

hearth products be installed

and serviced by professionals

3.0 VENTING

7.1A

THIS APPLIANCE USES A 4” EXHAUST / 7” AIR INTAKE VENT PIPE SYSTEM.

Refer to the section applicable to your installation.

For safe and proper operation of the appliance follow the venting instruction exactly. Deviation from the

minimum vertical vent length can create difﬁculty in burner start-up and/or carboning. Under extreme vent

conﬁgurations, allow several minutes (5-15) for the ﬂame to stabilize after ignition. Provide a means for

visually checking the vent connection to the appliance after the appliance is installed. Use a ﬁrestop, vent pipe

shield or attic insulation shield when penetrating interior walls, ﬂoor or ceiling.

NOTE: If for any reason the vent air intake system is disassembled; reinstall per the instructions

provided for the initial installation.

WARNING

RISK OF FIRE, MAINTAIN SPECIFIED AIR SPACE CLEARANCES TO VENT PIPE AND APPLIANCE.

IF VENTING IS INCLUDED WITH SPACERS THE VENT SYSTEM MUST BE SUPPORTED EVERY 3 FEET

FOR BOTH VERTICAL AND HORIZONTAL RUNS. USE SUPPORTS OR EQUIVALENT

NON-COMBUSTIBLE STRAPPING TO MAINTAIN THE REQUIRED CLEARANCE FROM

COMBUSTIBLES. USE WOLF STEEL LTD. SUPPORT RING ASSEMBLY W010-0370 OR EQUIVALENT

NON-COMBUSTIBLE STRAPPING TO MAINTAIN THE MINIMUM CLEARANCE TO COMBUSTIBLES

FOR BOTH VERTICAL AND HORIZONTAL RUNS. SPACERS ARE ATTACHED TO THE INNER PIPE AT

PREDETERMINED INTERVALS TO MAINTAIN AN EVEN AIR GAP TO THE OUTER PIPE. THIS GAP IS

REQUIRED FOR SAFE OPERATION. A SPACER IS REQUIRED AT THE START, MIDDLE AND END OF

EACH ELBOW TO ENSURE THIS GAP IS MAINTAINED. THESE SPACERS MUST NOT BE REMOVED.

A terminal shall not terminate directly above a sidewalk or paved driveway which is located between

two single family dwellings and serves both dwellings. Local codes or regulations may require different

clearances.

Do not allow the inside liner to bunch up on horizontal or vertical runs and elbows. Keep it pulled

tight. A 1-1/4" air gap all around between the inner liner and outer appliance pipe is required for safe

operation. Use a ﬁrestop when penetrating interior walls, ﬂoor or ceiling.

W415-0149 / D / 02.14.11

3.1 VENTING LENGTHS AND COMPONENTS

Use only Wolf Steel, Simpson Dura-Vent, Selkirk Direct Temp, American Metal Amerivent or Metal-Fab venting

components. Minimum and maximum vent lengths, for both horizontal and vertical installations, and air terminal

locations for either system are set out in this manual and must be adhered to. For Simpson Dura-Vent, Selkirk

Direct Temp, American Metal Amerivent and Metal-Fab follow the installation procedure provided with the venting

components.

A starter adaptor must be used with the following vent systems and may be purchased from the corresponding

supplier:

* For Simpson Dura-Vent, Selkirk Direct Temp, American Metal Amerivent and Metal-Fab follow the

installation procedure found on the website for your venting supplier.

For vent systems that provide seals on the inner exhaust ﬂue, only the outer air intake joints must be sealed using a

red high temperature silicone (RTV). This same sealant may be used on both the inner exhaust and outer intake vent

pipe joints of all other approved vent systems except for the exhaust vent pipe connection to the appliance ﬂue collar

which must be sealed using the black high temperature sealant Mill Pac.

When using Wolf Steel venting components, use only approved Wolf Steel termination kits: wall terminal kit GD175

(7/12’ of venting included), or 1/12 to 7/12 pitch roof terminal kit GD110, 8/12 to 12/12 roof terminal kit GD111, ﬂat

roof terminal kit GD112 or periscope kit GD180 (for wall penetration below grade) in conjunction with the appropriate

venting components.

For optimum ﬂame appearance and appliance operation, keep the vent length and number of elbows to a

minimum. It is recommended that all horizontal runs have a minimum 1/4” rise per foot. The air terminal must

remain unobstructed at all times. Examine the air terminal at least once a year to verify that it is unobstructed

and undamaged. Rigid and ﬂexible venting systems must not be combined. Different venting manufacturers

components must not be combined.

These vent kits allow for either horizontal or vertical venting of the appliance. The maximum allowable horizontal run

is 20 feet. The maximum allowable vertical vent length is 40 feet. The maximum number of vent connections is two

horizontally or three vertically (excluding the appliance and the air terminal connections) when using ﬂexible venting.

Deviation from the minimum vertical vent length can create difﬁculty in burner start-up and/or carboning.

Use an adjustable pipe as the ﬁnal length of rigid piping to the stove for ease of installation.
