This application oc-
curs when venting
through a roof. Installa-
tion kits for various roof
pitches are available
from your Napoleon
dealer. See Accesso-
ries to order the specific
kit required.
1. Determine the air
terminal location, cut
and frame 10 inch openings in the ceiling and the roof to
provide the minimum 1 inch clearance between the fire-
place pipe / liner and any combustible material. Try to center
the exhaust pipe location midway between two joist to pre-
vent having to cut them. Use a plumb bob to line up the
center of the openings. DO NOT FILL THIS SPACE WITH
ANY TYPE OF MATERIAL. A vent pipe shield will prevent any
materials such as insulation, from filling up the 1" air space
around the pipe. Nail headers between the joist for extra
support.
2. Apply a bead of
caulking (not sup-
plied) to the frame-
work or to the Wolf Steel
vent pipe shield plate
or equivalent (in the
case of a finished ceiling), and secure over the opening in
the ceiling. FIGURE 18. A firestop must be placed on the
bottom of each framed opening in a roof or ceiling that the
venting system passes through. Apply a bead of caulking
all around and place a firestop spacer over the vent shield
to restrict cold air from being drawn into the room or around
the fireplace. Ensure that both spacer and shield maintain
the required clearance to combustibles. Once the vent pipe
/ liner is installed in its final position, apply sealant be-
tween the pipe / liner and the firestop spacer.
FOR SAFE AND PROPER OPERATION OF THE FIREPLACE,
FOLLOW THE VENTING INSTRUCTIONS EXACTLY.
NOTE: Only a clearance to combustibles of 1" all
around the vent pipe is required.
This application occurs when vent-
ing through an exterior wall. Having
determined the air terminal location,
cut and frame a hole in an exterior
wall with a minimum opening as
required. See Note above. (As an
alternative to framing, a vent pipe
shield may be installed, ensuring
a 1" clearance to
combustibles. See
Figure 16.)
1. Mark and cut the vent pipe shield to the
determined depth of the combustible wall. Apply a bead of
caulking (not supplied) to the framework or to the shield
plate (in the case of a finished wall) and secure the shield
through the opening to the interior wall. The final location
of the vent pipe shield should maintain the required clear-
ance to the 7" vent pipe / liner. (See note above). Do not fill
this cavity with any type of material. Apply a bead of caulk-
ing all around and place a firestop spacer over the vent
shield to restrict cold air from being drawn into the room or
around the fireplace. Ensure that both spacer and shield
maintain the required clearance to combustibles. Once
the vent pipe / liner is installed in its final position, apply
sealant between the pipe / liner and the firestop spacer.
