G. Continue installation of horizontal/inclined
sections - Continue with the installation of the
straight vent sections in horizontal/inclined run
as described in Step C. Install support straps
every 5' (1.52 m) along horizontal/inclined vent
runs using conventional plumber’s tape. It is
very important that the horizontal/inclined
run be maintained in a straight (no dips) and
recommended to be in a slightly elevated
plane, in a direction away from the fireplace
of 1/4" rise per foot (20 mm per meter) which
is ideal, though rise per foot run ratios that are
smaller are acceptable all the way down to at or
near level. Use a carpenter’s level to measure
from a constant surface and adjust the support
straps as necessary.
It is important to maintain the required clear-
ances to combustibles: 1" (25 mm) at all sides
for all vertical runs; and 3" (76 mm) at the top,
1" (25 mm) at sides, and 1" (25 mm) at the
bottom for all horizontal/inclined runs.
H. Frame roof opening - Identify location for
vent at the roof. Cut and/or frame opening per
Roof Framing Chart and Figure 21.

I. Install the roof flashing - Extend the vent
sections through the roof structure. Install the
roof flashing over the vent section and posi-
tion such that the vent column rises vertically
(use carpenters level) (Figure 22). Nail along
perimeter to secure flashing or adjust roofing
to overlap the flashing edges at top and sides
only and trim where necessary. Seal the top
and both sides of the flashing with waterproof
caulking.
J. Install the storm collar - Install the storm
collar, supplied with the flashing, over the
vent/flashing joint. See Figure 22. Loosen
the storm collar screw. Slide collar down until
it meets the top of the flashing. Tighten the
adjusting screw. Apply non-combustible caulk-
ing or mastic around the circumference of the
joint to provide a water tight seal.

If the vent system extends more than 5' (1.5
m) above the roof flashing, stabilizers may be
necessary. Additional screws may be used at
section joints for added stability. Guide wires
may be attached to the joint for additional sup-
port on multiple joint configurations.
K. Install the vertical termination - The final
step involves installation of the SV4.5CGV-1
Vertical Termination. Extend the vent sections
to the height as shown in the "Vertical vent ter-
mination section" on Page 6. The SV4.5CGV-1
Vertical Termination (Figure 23) installs in the
exact same fashion as any other Secure Vent
section. Align the termination over the end of
the previously installed section, adjusting the
radial alignment until the four locking dimples
of the termination are aligned with the inlets of
the four incline channels of the last vent section.
Push the termination down until it fully engages,
then twist the termination clockwise running the
dimples down and along the incline channels
until they seat at the end of the channels.
One method of support is by utilizing field pro-
vided support straps (conventional plumber's
tape). Secure the plumber's tape to the framing
members with nails or screws. Loop the tape
around the vent, securing the ends of the tape
to the framing. If desired, sheet metal screws #6
x 1/2" length may be used to secure the support
straps to the vent pipe. See Figure 19.
F. Change vent direction to horizontal/inclined
run - At transition from or to a horizontal/in-
clined run, install the SV4.5E45 and SV4.5E90
elbows in the same manner as the straight vent
sections. The elbows feature a twist section to
allow them to be routed about the center axis
of their initial collar section to align with the
required direction of the next vent run element.
Twist elbow sections in a clockwise direction
only so as to avoid the possibility of unlocking
any of the previously connected vent sections
(see Figure 20).
