VENTING
Before installing venting for this unit, the installer should read 
these instructions to insure that the proper vent confi guration 
has been selected.
Use only Town and Country Termination kits #:
 
TCVT.WTA - Wall Termination Kit
 
TCVT.RTA - Roof Termination Kit
Vent system components approved for use with the Town and 
Country Fireplace are shown in Figure #13.
 
Various combinations of vertical and horizontal runs may be 
used. Refer to # 
17
 and 
18 
for details. For optimum performance 
and fl ame appearance, keep the vent length to a minimum and 
limit the number of elbows. Connections between each vent 
system component must be tightly joined, secured with sheet 
metal screws and sealed. A horizontal run of vent should have 
a 1/4" rise for every 1 ft. of run towards the termination.
CAUTION:  UNDER NO CONDITION SHOULD COMBUSTI-
BLE MATERIAL BE CLOSER THAN 1 3/4 INCHES FROM 
THE TOP AND 1 3/4 INCHES FROM THE SIDES OF A 
HORIZONTAL SECTION AND 1 3/4 INCHES FROM THE 
VERTICAL SECTIONS OF THE VENT PIPE.

WALL TERMINATION VENTING
Exterior wall opening:
Determine the exact position of the fi replace so that the vent 
pipe is centred (if possible) between two building framing 
members. Consult your local building codes prior to proceed-
ing. The vent kit will accommodate up to a maximum wall 
thickness of 12 inches.
1)  Having determined the position of the fi replace, cut and 
frame a 14 1/2 inch opening centred at a minimum height 
of 
68 1/2 inches
 above the fl oor. The opening may be 
round or square. Height of the opening will vary with each 
installation. As the horizontal vent run increases, so does 
the minimum vertical rise (see Fig. #
17
).
IMPORTANT:  When locating the opening, it should be 
noted that vent terminal clearances must be maintained. 
See "Vent Terminal Clearances" section for proper clear-
ances.
A minimum 2 foot length of pipe is required for any wall termi-
nation. With this minimum vertical rise in combination with a 
90° elbow, a maximum horizontal run of 18 inches is permitted 
(
see Fig. #17 and 18
). For longer horizontal runs greater than 
18 inches, increase vertical rise appropriately.
The rise and run must be constrained to the boundaries of the 
chart shown in fi gure #
17
. The horizontal run of vent must have 
a 1/4" rise for every 1 ft. of run towards the termination.
