Installation (for qualified installers only)

1 7

Vent Requirements

!The vent must maintain the required clearance to combustible materials to prevent a fire (see “Clearances” below). Do not fill air spaces with insulation.

!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.

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.

Clearances

Use of 8” Diameter Pipe

Most venting configurations use 6-5/8” diameter vent. To achieve longer horizontal runs (over 12’) with a horizontal termination, 8” dia. Simpson Duravent type GS Direct Vent may be used. See the section “Horizontal Terminations using 8” Diameter Vent” for details. Part Numbers are listed below.
