Vermont Casting RDVOD specs

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: 9³⁄₈” x 9³⁄₈” (240 x 240 mm)

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

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” (25 mm) 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.

7.Install the appropriate roof support and ﬂashing, making certain that the upper ﬂange of the ﬂashing base is below the shingles. (Fig. 33)

8.Install appropriate pipe sections until the vent run reaches above the ﬂashing. The enlarged ends of the vent sections always face downward.

9.Install the storm collar and seal around the joints. (Fig. 33)

10.Add additional vent lengths to achieve the proper overall height.

11.Apply cement to the inner and outer termination col- lars and install the terminal cap.

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.
