The vent system must be supported approximately
every 3 feet for both vertical and horizontal runs.
Use supports or equivalent non-combustible
strapping to maintain the 1" clearance from
combustibles. Use Wolf Steel Ltd. vent spacers
W615-0033 every 18" and at the start, middle and end
of each elbow to maintain the minimum 1 1/4"
clearance between the 4" flexible vent pipe and the
7" rigid vent pipe. These spacers must not be
removed. 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.
