5 Vent Information

A. Venting Components

In order to comply with applicable codes and product warranties, use only following venting components:

•Hearth & Home Technologies (HHT)

•Security Chimney's Secure Vent Chimney System

•Selkirk Metalbestos

•AmeriVent

•Simpson Dura-Vent (SDV)

DO NOT USE FIELD-FABRICATED VENTING COMPONENTS. Refer to the venting manufacturer’s

instructions.

This product is approved to be vented either horizontally, through the side wall or vertically through the roof. You may vent through a Class A or masonry chimney if an approved adapter is used.

This appliance is a direct vent heater. All combustion air must come directly from the outside of the building. The vent pipe for this unit consists of an inner and an outer pipe. The inner pipe carries the appliance exhaust out of the system, and the outer pipe brings fresh combustion air into the appliance.

•A round support box/wall thimble or heat shield is required when the venting passes through a combus- tible wall.

•A support box or ceiling ﬁrestop is required when the venting passes through a ceiling.

•Roof ﬂashing and a storm collar are required when venting passes through the roof.

•Follow instructions provided with the venting for instal- lation of these items.

B. Use of Elbows

CAUTION

ALL vent conﬁguration speciﬁcations MUST be followed.

•This product is tested and listed to these speciﬁcations.

•Appliance performance will suffer if speciﬁcations are not followed.

Diagonal runs have both vertical and horizontal vent aspects when calculating the effects. Use the rise for the vertical aspect and the run for the horizontal aspect. Figure 5.1.

Two 45° elbows may be used in place of one 90° elbow. On 45° runs, one foot of diagonal is equal to 8-1/2 in. (216mm) horizontal run and 8-1/2 in. (216mm) vertical run. A length of straight pipe is allowed between two elbows. Figure 5.1.

WARNING

Fire Risk. Explosion Risk. Asphyxiation Risk.

Do NOT connect this gas appliance to a chimney ﬂue serving a separate solid-fuel or gas burning appliance.

•Vent this appliance directly outside.

•Use separate vent system for this appliance.

May impair safe operation of this appliance or other appliances connected to the ﬂue.

C. Measuring Standards

Vertical and horizontal measurements were made using the following standards.

•Pipe measurements are from center line to center line.

•Horizontal terminations are measured to the outside of the mounting surface (ﬂange of termination cap). See

Figure 4.1 on page 8.

•Vertical terminations are measured to the top of the last pipe before termination cap.

•Horizontal pipe installed level with 1/4 in.(6mm) rise.

SAPPHIRE-D-CSB, SAPPHIRE-D-PMH, SAPPHIRE-MBK, SAPPHIRE-D-MBK specifications

The Quadra-Fire Sapphire series of fireplaces, which includes the Sapphire-D-PMH, Sapphire-D-CSB, Sapphire-D-MBK, and Sapphire-MBK models, epitomizes modern heating technology combined with elegant design. These units are meticulously engineered to enhance both efficiency and aesthetics, making them perfect additions to contemporary living spaces.

One of the standout features of the Sapphire series is its advanced combustion technology. The fireplaces utilize a patented Clean Burn technology. This innovation ensures that the combustion process is as efficient as possible, resulting in reduced emissions and maximizing heat output. With lower particulate emissions, these models not only provide warmth but do so in an environmentally conscious manner.

In terms of performance, the Sapphire fireplaces are designed to deliver consistent and radiant heat. With their powerful heating capabilities, they can warm up large areas, making them suitable for homes of various sizes. The efficient design helps to distribute heat evenly throughout a room, eliminating cold spots and ensuring comfort in all corners of your living space.

The design aesthetics of the Sapphire series is equally impressive. The models feature a sleek, modern design complemented by a large viewing area, allowing for an unobstructed view of the mesmerizing flames. The glass is designed to remain clean for longer periods, thanks to the sophisticated airflow management system that directs air over the glass surfaces, reducing soot buildup.

Customization options are another notable characteristic of the Sapphire series. Homeowners can choose from various finishes and styles to match their home’s decor. The units are available in both traditional and contemporary designs, allowing for versatility in different architectural settings.

The Sapphire-D-PMH model is equipped with a programmable thermostat for added convenience and efficiency. This technology allows users to set the desired temperature, ensuring that their space remains comfortable without unnecessary manual adjustments.

On the other hand, the Sapphire-D-CSB model features an innovative fuel management system that optimally uses wood fuel for extended burn times. This means less frequent refueling and more time spent enjoying the warmth and ambiance the fireplace provides.

The Sapphire-D-MBK and Sapphire-MBK models are designed with durability and longevity in mind. Each unit is constructed from high-quality materials that are built to withstand extreme temperatures while maintaining structural integrity over time.

In summary, the Quadra-Fire Sapphire series combines advanced technology, unique design, and high efficiency. With features like Clean Burn technology, customizable options, and smart fuel management systems, the Sapphire fireplaces offer not just heat, but a stylish centerpiece for modern homes.
