INSTALLATION : EXHAUST FLUE INSTALLATION
HORIZONTAL SIDEWALL FLUE
The flue can extend horizontally through the wall using the DuraTech® brand Wall Radiation Shield. The flue should terminate no closer than 24” from building siding. A single wall, 6” diameter, adjustable stainless steel elbow is used to divert the flue gases downward into the metal container. Fasten the elbow to flue with three self-tapping sheet metal screws.
FOR A HORIZONTAL FLUE INSTALLATION, A METAL CONTAINER PARTIALLY FILLED WITH SAND MUST BE PLACED BELOW THE ANGLED STAINLESS STEEL ELBOW TO CATCH ANY
FLY ASH OR SPARKS THAT MAY EXIT THE EXHAUST. DO NOT USE A PLASTIC OR ANY COMBUSTIBLE CONTAINER. A ½” MESH WIRE SCREEN MUST BE FASTENED OVER THE TOP OF THE CONTAINER TO PREVENT THE ENTRANCE OF DRY LEAVES, ANIMALS, BIRDS, ETC INTO THE CONTAINER. The metal container must be at least 2’ laterally from any surface and the top of the container must be 6’ below any surface (such as a soffit). Cut a hole the size of the elbow in the screen where the flue enters the container. Care should be taken that the hot surfaces and gases do not present a hazard to any person who might frequent the area. Support all flue components to ensure structural integrity during the life of the flue. Use only non- combustible (i.e. steel, aluminum, etc) materials for such supports.
