Installing Vent Components (Figure 48)

Begin the vent system installation by installing the first Simpson Duravent component, 90° elbow to the starting collars or straight pipe on the top of the appliance, then the straight pipe length and then horizontal or vertical termination kit.

NOTE: All outer connection joints must be sealed with aluminum tape, screws or silicone sealant rated above 300°F/149°C. The inner flue joints do not require any sealant.

Simpson Duravent vent system components lock into place by sliding the concentric pipe section with four (4) equally spaced interior beads onto the appliance collar or previously installed component end with four (4) equally spaced indented sections. When the internal beads of each starting outer pipe line up, rotate pipe section clockwise 90° (approximately 3 inches). The vent pipe is now locked together.

Continue adding components per the pre-planned vent system configuration. Be certain that each succeeding vent component is securely fitted and locked into the preceding component in the vent system.

With high-efficiency ratings, they provide warmth without significantly impacting utility bills. Additionally, the models are available in both natural gas and propane variants, catering to different preferences and availability.

In terms of design, the DVX series offers versatile options that can seamlessly integrate with various home decors. With customizable fronts, finishes, and media choices, owners can match their fireplace to their home’s aesthetic, whether it be modern, traditional, or somewhere in between.

Maintenance is simplified, thanks to the easy-access features that allow for quick cleaning and servicing. The durable construction ensures long-lasting performance, making these fireplaces a worthwhile investment.
