manual abstract
The vent terminal shall not terminate : • Within 3 ft. of a building mechanical air supply. • Less than 12 inches from a perpendicular wall. • In an area which is allocated to the occupancy. • Under a window that pivots open. In addition, in a structure with three walls and a roof , the following restrictions apply: a) The minimum distance between the two side walls must be 72". b) The roof must not exceed the walls more than 24". c) If both those conditions apply, the clearance shall be as follows: • 18" to a side wall. • 12" to an unventilated soffit, 24" for basement or distant installation. • 18" to a ventilated soffit, 24" for basement or distant installation. NOTE: If the fireplace is installed in an outside chase, the chase walls must be insulated with vapour barrier and insulation similar to the house exterior wall. MINIMUM CLEARANCE TO COMBUSTIBLES Top of fireplace (spacer) 0" Back of fireplace 0" Sides of fireplace 0" Bottom of fireplace 0" Vent pipe: 2" Wall perpendicular to the standard surround 1/2" Mantel (from upper part of the standard surround) 6" if the projection is up to 6" 12" if the projection is over 6" NOTE: If you install decorative posts to support the mantel shelf, they can be located 1/2" away from the side of the fireplace surround, no matter how big they are. INSTALLATION OF THE UNIT • Move the ULTRA FLAME to the desired position. Mark the location for the gas inlet pipe and the location where the vent pipes will go through the wall. Remove the appliance. • Route a 3/8" minimum NPT iron pipe gas line to the desired location. • Install a shutoff valve to the gas line. Tighten securely using a pipe joint compound. NOTE: The valve includes two .” tappings for test gauge connection. You may need, however, to install a 1/8” plugged tapping between the gas line and the connection point to the fireplace, if it is required by local codes. • Move the ULTRA FLAME to the desired position and secure in place. • Connect gas line to the fireplace using listed connectors. • Check the gas line piping for leaks. Use a soap and water solution. WARNING: DO NOT USE OPEN FLAME TO CHECK LEAKS. You are now ready to proceed to the venting kit installation. VENTING KITS STRAIGH OUT CORNER CUT TO LENGTH10-1/2" X 10-1/2" OPENING39-1\4" FOR CORNERINSTALLATION KITRADIATION SHIELD29-1\2"FORSTRAIGHT OUT "K" BASEMENT THROUGH THE WALL DETAIL Once the position of the fireplace and the termination cap are fixed, you should select the venting kit appropriate for your needs. First floor installations require either a STRAIGHT OUT kit or a CORNER kit while basement installations must be done with a BASEMENT kit. Please note that the BASEMENT kit can also be used on first (or higher) floors and it is possible to use up to 25' of pipe with a distant installation. 1) STRAIGHT OUT INSTALLATION • Make a 10-1/2" x 10-1/2" opening in the wall, 29-1/2" inches above the base of the fireplace. • Cut the radiation shield to length if necessary and install as shown. Secure with four #10 1” wood screws. • Install the vent pipe starting from the fireplace and working your way out. NOTE: All joints must be sealed with RTV silicone, 315°C. (600°F) temperature resistance. • Attach the 4" flexible pipe on the fireplace with a locking band and cut to leave a 2- 1/2" projection over the exterior wall. • Slip on the 45°x8" elbow facing toward your wall hole. Seal it with silicone and secure with screws. • Add a spring spacer. The spring spacer must be located opposite the outside pipe joints to prevent puncturing of the inside pipe when the two sections of the outside pipe are screwed together. • Cut the 8" diameter pipe to be flush with outside face of the exterior wall and attach it to the 45° elbow through the radiation shield. • Secure the 8” elbow with screws and seal the pipe joints with silicone. • Cover the 8"diameter pipe with the insulation blanket and seal joint with aluminum tape. • Installation inside the house is now complete. The next step is to install the vent termination cap according to the instructions in the next section. 2) CORNER INSTALLATION • Make a 10-1/2" x 10-1/2" opening in the wall, 39-1/4" inches above the base of the fireplace. • Cut the radiation shield to length if necessary and install as shown. Secure with four #10 1” wood screws. • Install the vent pipe starting from the fireplace and working your way out. NOTE: All joints must be sealed with RTV silicone, 315°C. (600°F) temperature resistance. • Attach the 4" flexible pipe on the fireplace with a locking band and seal with silicone cut to leave a 2-1/2" projection over the exterior wall. • Slip on the 45° x 8" elbow facing upward. Seal it with silicone and secure with screws. • Add a spring spacer. The spring spacer must be located opposite the outside pipe joints to prevent puncturing of the inside pipe when the two sections of the outside pipe are screwed together. • Slip on the 90° x 8" elbow so that it faces your hole in the wall. Seal it with ...
