Vent Requirements

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.

Vent Clearances

The vent must maintain the required clearance to combustible materials to prevent a fire. Do not fill air spaces with insulation.

Altitude Considerations

This heater has been tested at altitudes ranging from sea level to 8,000 feet (2,400 M). In this testing we have found that the heater, with its standard orifice, burns correctly with just an air shutter adjustment.

Failure to adjust the air shutter properly may lead to improper combustion which can create a safety hazard. Consult your dealer or installer if you suspect an improperly adjusted air shutter.

Approved Vent

Use Model GS Direct Vent manufactured by Simpson Dura-Vent only. Follow the installation instructions included with the vent. For the nearest Simpson Dura-Vent supplier, call (800) 835-4429.

Always use the high-wind cap for the type of vent you are using.

This fireplace accepts 8" diameter GS Direct Vent. Vent configurations with at least 12" of rise may use 6-5/8" diameter GS Direct Vent (use the reducer - part # 98900165). See "Approved Vent Configurations" for further details on vent.
