Make certain the vent system conforms to all other requirements for vertical termination as specified on Page 9.

This installation will require you to first determine the roof pitch and use the appropriate vent components. Refer to Figure 9 on page 9.

1.Locate the final position of the stove, observing all clearances for both the vent and the stove.

2.Plumb to the center of the inner (4”) flue collar from the ceiling above, and mark that location.

3.Cut the opening:

CFM System: 9³⁄” x 9³⁄” (240mm x 240mm)

DuraVent System: 10” x 10” (254mm x 254mm)

4.Plumb any additional opening through the roof or other construction that may be needed. In all cases, the opening must provide a minimum of 1” (25mm) clearance to the vent pipe.

5.Place the stove in its final position.

6.Install firestop(s) #7DVFS and Attic Insulation Shield #7DVAIS as needed. (Fig. 32) If there is a room above ceiling level, a firestop must be installed on both the bottom and top sides of the ceiling joists.

If an attic is above ceiling level, an attic insulation shield must be installed.

General Information

The Radiance Heater is shipped from the factory as a Direct Vent Heater. It may be converted to a Natural Vent heater by installing the Vermont Castings Model Z31D00 FSDHAG Draft Hood Adapter.

The Radiance Heater is approved for installation as a Natural Vent unit. Vermont Castings/Majestic Direct Vent outer pipe (7FSSK) could be used directly after the Draft Hood Adapter up to the ceiling, then B-vent pipe must be used. Do not mix types of B-vent pipe; use components from one maker or the another. Follow the vent component maker’s instructions exactly. (Fig. 34)

NOTE: The restrictor plate supplied with the stove is not used for Natural Vent applications.

Vermont Castings is renowned for its exceptional wood stoves and fireplaces, and the RDVOD series stands as a testament to their commitment to craftsmanship, efficiency, and innovative technology. The RDVOD 3399, RDVOD 3350, RDVOD 3360, RDVOD 3390, and RDVOD 3369 models embody a blend of traditional aesthetics and modern functionality, making them standout choices for homeowners seeking warmth and style.

One of the main features of the RDVOD series is its high-efficiency rating. These models utilize Vermont Castings' advanced combustion technology, which optimizes fuel usage, resulting in more heat output from less wood. This not only reduces overall wood consumption but also minimizes emissions, making these stoves environmentally friendly options for heating.

The RDVOD stoves are designed with robust cast iron construction, ensuring durability and longevity. The cast iron provides excellent heat retention and leads to a more consistent warmth in the home. Additionally, the stylish design of these models allows them to seamlessly integrate into various home decors, from rustic to contemporary.

Key technologies incorporated into these stoves include the patented "Biltmore" technology, which enhances the efficiency of the burning process. This technology ensures that the fire burns hotter and cleaner, providing more heat while reducing the pollutants released into the atmosphere. The adjustable air controls allow users to easily manage the flame and heat output, ensuring personalized comfort.

The RDVOD 3399, RDVOD 3350, RDVOD 3360, RDVOD 3390, and RDVOD 3369 also feature large glass doors that showcase the fire, adding visual appeal to any living space. The seamless integration of the glass doors with the cast iron design contributes to the overall aesthetic while allowing for easy monitoring of the fire.

Safety is another priority in the design of the RDVOD stoves. They come equipped with features like a removable ash pan, which simplifies cleanup and maintenance, and the air-wash system, which keeps the glass clean, providing an unobstructed view of the flames.

In summary, the Vermont Castings RDVOD series – including models 3399, 3350, 3360, 3390, and 3369 – exemplifies high efficiency, exquisite craftsmanship, and thoughtful technology. With their combination of aesthetic appeal and functional performance, they offer an optimal heating solution for today’s homeowners seeking comfort and elegance in their living spaces.
