Figure 7 - Clearances for Combustible Mantels

GENERAL VENTING

These models are approved for use with Simpson Dura-Vent 6 5/8" direct-vent pipe components and terminations as well as both flex and rigid Vanguard vent components.

Your fireplace is approved to be vented either through the side wall, or vertically using the following guidelines:

Only use Vanguard or Simpson Dura- Vent GS venting components or kits spe- cifically approved for this fireplace.

Minimum clearance between vent pipes and combustible materials is 1" (25 mm), except where stated otherwise.

Combustible material may be flush with the top front of fireplace with a maxi- mum thickness of 3/4".

Nailing Tabs

Do not recess venting terminals into a wall or siding.

Install horizontal venting with a 1/4" rise for every 12" of run toward the termina- tion.

You may paint the vent terminal with 450ºF (232ºC) heat-resistant paint to co- ordinate with the exterior finish.

There must not be any obstruction such

as bushes, garden sheds, fences, decks, or utility buildings within 24" from the front of the termination cap.

Do not locate termination cap where ex- cessive snow or ice build up may occur. Be sure to clear vent termination area af- ter snow falls to prevent accidental block- age of venting system. When using snow blowers, do not direct snow towards vent termination area.

LOCATION OF VENT

TERMINATION

When locating vent termination, it is impor- tant to observe the minimum clearances shown in Figure 8, page 6. You will avoid extra framing by positioning your fireplace against an already existing framing mem- ber. The sides of the fireplace may be posi- tioned directly against combustible walls.

*Check with local codes or with the current CAN/CGA B149[.1 or .2] Installation Codes for Canada or the USA Installations follow the current National Fuel Gas Code, ANS Z223.1, also known as NFPA 54.
