Determine the vertical pipe length | Vermont Casting 2466, 2465

Dutchwest Direct Vent / Natural Vent Gas Heater

For DuraVent pipe only: Install vent pipe by align- ing the locking system together, sliding the pipes together and twisting clockwise.

•Install 90° elbow. Twist lock as before.

•Slide the wall plate over horizontal run before at- taching the horizontal run to the elbow. Fasten wall plate to wall.

4.For CFM Vent Pipe only: If necessary, measure to determine the vertical length (X) of pipe required from the adapter pipe to the wall cutout centerline, including a 2” (51mm) overlap at the joint. (Fig.

24) use a hacksaw or tin snips to trim the pipe as needed.

5.Install ﬁrst the inner then the outer straight pipe section(s), trimmed end down, to the point of the el- bow. Drill 3 holes through each joint and fasten with sheet metal screws.

6.Seal and install the elbow using 3 sheet metal screws at each joint.

7.Measure, and cut if needed, the appropriate length of pipe section needed to make the connection through the wall. Include a 2” overlap; i.e. from the elbow to the outside wall face, about 2” or the dis- tance required if installing a second 90° elbow. (Fig. 25)

8.Slip the wall plate and trim collar over the interior end of the horizontal pipe and install into the wall sleeve. Seal the joint inside the wall plate if needed to keep cold air from being drawn into the home.

9.Seal the ends and connect the horizontal pipe to the elbow. Fasten the wall plate to the pipe with three sheet metal screws. Slide the trim collar up against the wall plate to cover the screws. (Fig. 26)

10.For both CFM and DuraVent Systems: Install the vent terminal. (Fig. 27) Apply high temperature seal- ant one inch from the ends of the inner and outer collars. Guide the inner and outer vent termination collars into the adjacent pipes. Double check that the vent pipes overlap the collars by 2”. Fasten the termination to the wall with the screws provided, and caulk the joint with weatherproof sealant.

11.For CFM only: Install Charcoal Gray Pipe Rings (#7FSDRG) or Polished Brass Pipe Rings (#7FS- DRP) at pipe joints, if desired.

2466, 2465 specifications

Vermont Casting's 2465 and 2466 stoves are renowned in the world of wood-burning appliances, celebrated for their blend of traditional craftsmanship, modern technology, and efficient features. These stoves bring warmth and aesthetic appeal to any home while providing an eco-friendly heating solution.

The Vermont Casting 2465 model stands out with its classic styling and robust construction, made from high-quality cast iron. Its design not only provides durability but also enhances heat retention, allowing for longer-lasting warmth in your space. Featuring a large viewing window, the 2465 allows you to enjoy the mesmerizing flames while also providing ample heat output, making it a focal point of any room.

Similarly, the Vermont Casting 2466 shares many characteristics with its counterpart but introduces slightly elevated features. One of the notable features of the 2466 is its increased heating capacity, suitable for larger homes or open-concept living spaces. Both models are equipped with a user-friendly air control system that optimizes airflow and combustion, ensuring that wood burns more efficiently and cleanly. This results in minimal smoke emissions and contributes to a lower environmental impact.

One of the standout technologies in both the 2465 and 2466 is the patented “Dual Air Control” system. This innovative design allows homeowners to easily adjust the airflow for more efficient burning, regardless of the type of wood used, enhancing combustion efficiency. Users can start with a higher airflow for a quick fire start and then throttle back once the wood is burning well, ensuring an effective and adjustable burn rate.

Additionally, both models come with an integrated ash pan located at the bottom, designed to simplify maintenance by making ash removal quick and easy. The stoves also feature a built-in heat shield that helps to increase the heating efficiency of the stove while reducing the clearance needed for safe installation.

Overall, the Vermont Casting 2465 and 2466 stoves represent an intersection of function and beauty. Their classic cast iron design paired with modern heating technologies makes them a perfect choice for those wishing to combine traditional aesthetics with efficiency and environmental responsibility in their home heating solutions. Whether you're heating a cozy cabin or a spacious family room, these stoves deliver exceptional performance and timeless appeal.
