Vertical Through-the-Roof Applications
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. 55)
• 
Up to two 45° elbows may be used within the   
horizontal run. For each 45° elbow used on the  
horizontal level the maximum horizontal length must 
be reduced by 18” (457 mm). 
  Example: Maximum horizontal length
  0  x  45° elbows  =  10’ (3 m)
  1  x  45° elbows  =  8¹⁄₂’ (2.6 m)
  2  x  45° elbows  = 7’ (2.1 m)
•

installations. From 0 to a maximum of 8’ (2.m) of 
vent  pipe can be used between elbows. (Fig. 56)

This application will require that you first determine 
the roof pitch and use the appropriate starter kit. 
(Refer to Venting Components List)
