VENTING:

This fireplace has been tested and certified for use with SIMPSON DURAVENT DIRECT VENT TYPE “GS” PIPE FOR GAS STOVES, SECURITY CHIMNEY’S SECURE VENT DIRECT VENT SYSTEM kits, and MDV SELKIRK METALBESTOS.

A 1” (25 mm) clearance to combustibles must be maintained	5" (127mm)
around any vertical vent pipe. Around a horizontal vent
	2" (51mm)
pipe, the clearance to combustibles should be 2” (51 mm)
above and 11⁄2” (38 mm) on the sides and bottom. When	125/16"
combustible materials are directly above a 90° elbow, 5” (127	(313mm)
mm) of clearance are necessary. See Figure 18
A 10” (254 mm) x 10” (254 mm) frame (see Figure 19) will
assure the proper support and spacing for the vent pipe as it
passes through the wall. Installations in Canada require that
a wall thimble be used for passing through walls and ceilings.
All sealing and vapour barriers must comply with local building
codes.	4515/16"
When planning an installation, it is necessary to select the	(1167mm)
proper length of vent pipe for the particular requirements. The
configuration of the venting pipes depends on the locations
of walls, ceilings and studs. However, the pipes cannot be
of arbitrary length and arrangement. Because the length of
the vertical and horizontal sections dramatically affects the
burning efficiency of the fireplace, certain guidelines have
been set in INITIAL INSTALLATION - VENT CONFIGURATIONS AND
RESTRICTOR SETTINGS.	Figure 18. Vent Pipe Clearances.
Venting terminals can not be recessed into
a wall or siding.

WARNING: This gas appliance must not be connected to a chimney flue serving a separate solid-burning appliances.
