A question on venting Jotul 160 corner install. Manual states a 2 ' vertical with a 45 and a 90. Is the horizontal piece from the 90 to the wall cap normally an adjustable piece or is it cut to length?
 
Not sure how you can use a 45 & a 90, but the horizontal section is usually a solid piece that “slips” into the wall thimble.
 
I'm looking at the install diagram and shows a 45 elbow and what has to be a 90. This is a corner install, but why couldn't I just 90 out?

Ok, now I get it. You CAN use a 90 without the 45. It moves the wall penetration further from the corner & may not look as good.
 
You don't cut any of the lengths.
