PRECAUTIONS FOR THE INSTALLER

The following vent systems in combination with the Tara Direct Vent Freestanding Gas Stove, have been tested and listed as direct vent heater systems by Warnock Hersey:

1)The Minimum Horizontal Termination with the DV Stove Horizontal Riser Vent Kit (Part# 640-944)

2)Vertical Termination using Co-Linear Flex System

3)The DV Stove Horizontal Vent Kit

4)The Simpson Dura-Vent Direct Vent Sys- tem Model DV-GS venting systems

The Tara uses the "balanced flue" technology Co-Axial system. The inner liner vents products of combustion to the outside while the outer pipe draws outside combustion air into the combustion chamber thereby eliminating the need to use heated room air for combustion and losing warm room air up the chimney.

Note: These flue pipes must not be con- nected to any other appliance.

The gas appliance and vent system must be vented directly to the outside of the building, and never be attached to a chimney serving a separate solid fuel or gas burning appliance. Each direct vent gas appliance must use it's own separate vent system. Common vent sys- tems are prohibited.

IMPORTANT

Read all instructions carefully before starting the installation. Failure to follow these instruc- tions may create a fire or other safety hazard, and will void the warranty. Be sure to check the venting and clearance to combustible require- ments. Consult your local building codes before beginning installation.

The location of the termination cap must con- form to the requirements in the Exterior Vent Terminal Locations diagram on page 10.

These venting systems are engineered prod- ucts that have been designed and tested for use with the Tara. The warranty will be voided and serious fire, health or other safety haz- ards may result from any of the following actions:

1)Installation of any damaged Direct Vent component

2)Unauthorized modification of the Direct Vent System

3)Installation of any component part not man- ufactured or approved by Simpson Dura- Vent or Fireplace Products International Ltd.

4)Installation other than as instructed by Simpson Dura-Vent and Fireplace Prod- ucts International Ltd.

Warning: Always maintain required clearances (air spaces) to nearby combustibles to prevent a fire haz- ard. Do not fill air spaces with insu- lation.

Be sure to check the vent termination clear- ance requirements from decks, windows, soffits, gas regulators, air supply inlets and public walkways as specified in the Exterior Vent Terminal Locations on page 9 and in your local building codes.

The gas appliance and vent system must be vented directly to the outside of the building, and never be attached to a chim- ney serving a separate solid fuel or gas-

burning appliance. Each direct vent gas appliance must use it's own separate vent system. Common vent systems are prohibited.

1)Wear gloves and safety glasses for pro- tection.

2)Exercise extreme caution when using lad- ders or on roof tops.

3)Be aware of electrical wiring locations in walls and ceilings.

The combustion air from this appliance is drawn from outside the building through the outer flue.

Extra provision for combustion air inside the room is not required.
