around the 4” and 7” snorkel collars.
6. Slide the snorkel into the vent pipe and secure to the
wall.

Vertical Through-the-Roof Application
This gas fireplace has been approved for:
• Vertical installations up to 40’ (12 m) in height. Up
to a 10’ (3 m) horizontal vent run can be installed
within the vent system using a maximum of two 90°
elbows. (Fig. 23)
• Up to two 45° elbows may be used within the hori-
zontal run. For each 45° elbow used on the horizon-
tal plane, the maximum horizontal length must be
reduced by 18” (450 mm).
Example: Maximum horizontal length:
No elbows = 10’ (3 m)
1 x 45° elbow = 8.5’ (2.6 m)
2 x 45° elbows = 7’ (2.1 m)
• A minimum of an 8’ (2.5m) vertical rise is required.
• Two sets of 45° elbow offsets may be used within the
vertical sections. From 0 to a maximum of 8’ (2.5 m)
of vent pipe can be used between elbows. (Fig. 24)
• 7DVCS supports offsets. (Fig. 25) This application
will require that you first determine the roof pitch
and use the appropriate starter kit. (Refer to Venting
Components List)
• The maximum angular variation allowed in the sys-
tem is 270°. (Fig. 24)
• The minimum height of the vent above the highest
point of penetration through the roof is 2’ (610 mm).

Vertical Through-the-Roof Installation
1. Locate your fireplace.
2. Plumb to center of the (4”) flue collar from ceiling
above and mark position.
3. Cut opening equal to 9
³⁄₈” x 9³⁄₈” (240 x 240 mm).
Do not backfill around snorkel.
A clearance of at lest 4” must be main
-
tained between the snorkel and the soil.
If the foundation is recessed, use recess brackets (not
supplied) for securing lower portion of the snorkel. Fas-
ten brackets to wall first, then secure to snorkel with self
drilling #8 x 1/2 sheet metal screws. It will be necessary
to extend vent pipes out as far as the protruding wall
face. (Fig. 22)
