PENETRATING THE ROOF: <br />To maintain a 2-inch clearance to the pipe on n rool with a pilch, <br />18 12 12S a rectanguler opening musl bo cut. <br />i � i STEP 1: Determine Ihe center point Ihraugh which the pipo will <br />� penetrate ihe roof. <br />� i i <br />� STEP 2: Delermine the pitch of Ihe roof. Pilch is I e distonce Ihe <br />� � roof drops over a given span, usunlly 12 inches. A 6I12 pitch means <br />� that Ihe rool drops 6 inches for each 12 inches one moasures <br />, , horizontally down the root. <br />SEE <br />CETAIL A <br />SEE <br />DETNIL B <br />STEP 3: From 1he center point determined in STEP 1, measure <br />an opening 17V. inches wide (B 518 inches to each side of the center <br />point). For a rool pitch between ol �2 (Ilat) and 6112, measure an <br />opening 27 i�ches long (t0�h inches above end below the center <br />point). <br />6112 to 12/12 pitches: Measure 26 ir�ches (13 above and below). <br />�� 12It2 to 18112 pitch.es: Measure 32�h inches (16Va above a�d <br />„ below). <br />18/1210 24112 pitches: Measure 40 inches (20 ebove and below). <br />STEP 4: Remove the shingles around Ihe opening measured and <br />wl oul lhis section. <br />STEP 5: Add the next sections of pipe until the end penetrntes the <br />roof line. Check to see that proper clearances are maintained. <br />Extend chimney by adding seclions of double waii pipe until pipe <br />is a minimum of 30 inches above highest Foint ol rool cutout. <br />Termination end chimney must eztend a minimum of 36 inches <br />ebove highest point where it passes through root. See 10', 2' RULE <br />(FIG. 70). <br />10 FOOT RULE: <br />All chimney tertninations must extend a minimum ol 3 feet in height <br />above the highest point where it passes through the roof and must <br />be at least 2 feet above the peak of ihe root if within a horizontal <br />distance of 70 teet from the peak (See FIG. 10). <br />TERMINATIONS: <br />The fireplace and chimney system must be vented lo ihe out-of- <br />i xs•�oM doors and must be terminatod with the listed round top or chase <br />eove terminations. It a chase termination is desired, reler to ihe <br />instructions supplied with the termination. <br />�eow I � <br />i <br />Y <br />CAUTION <br />w.:e i .. . .,. <br />. � ..... �... <br />,-r�..7� .�,�...a..�. .�.. _.��. ..,,,..... <br />FOR ROUNO TOP TERMINATION: <br />STEP 1: Slide the flashing over the pipe (no firestop is needed al <br />Ihe rool level). Tack the 1lashing doNn at the top two comers with <br />roofing nails. Lay tiles over Ihe �op and sides o1 the tlashing and <br />secure them to �he rool through the Ilashing wilh rool nails. Lay <br />tiles under the lower edge and secure these lo the rool. Mastic ell <br />nail heads. <br />STEP 2: Install storm coliar on double wall chimney, apply water- <br />proof cauiking around 1lashing top and push storm collar do�vn <br />securely on sealer and Ilashing, (SEE FIG. 11). <br />STEP 3: Place Ihe RTL-8DM onto ihe pipe end os illustrated and <br />secure with screws provided. <br />OR <br />i <br />r� <br />FIG.10 <br />LEVEL OF FLVE <br />OASOUTLET <br />t� to' --t <br />r riN <br />IMPORTANT: 11 an exposed portion of chimney is greater ihan <br />5 feet above the rool line, use supporl wires to keep chimney <br />secure. The support wiros msy be ai�ached to tne ouler pipe of <br />the chimneywith screws, provided the screws are not long enough <br />to penetrate ihe inner Ilue pipe. <br />-4 <br />IMPORTANT: Install gas line before finishing fireplace. It <br />desired, a decorative gas appliance may be installed, use only iron <br />pipe, 1/2" size, and appropriate fittings. When instelling a gas <br />line, a valve designed for installation outside the fireplace is <br />recommended. <br />To instalt the gas line, remove the gas line plug Iocated in the side <br />tirebrick approx. 2" above the bottom. The plug must be tapped <br />out irom thc finishe.� side towards [he unfinished side. $ee FIG. <br />12A. Insert thc gas line parallei to the face. Fill any gap between <br />the gas line and the hole in the tirebrick with refractory cement <br />or commercial furnace cement. See FIG. 128. <br />1 CJ � rvn .ar�a ..��..�• <br />All gas piping and connections must be tested foi leaks <br />after the ins[allation is compieted. Be sure gas valve is <br />turned on. Appl y soap suds solution to all connection! <br />and joints. If bubbles appear, leaks can be detected <br />and corrected. DO NOT use a match or open fla ance <br />any kind to test leaks. Never operate any app � <br />The gas pipe is intended for us^_ with a decorative ges appllance <br />only, in accordance with the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI 2223, <br />1•1980.
