Vent Requirements

Installation (for qualified installers only)

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.

In addition to the requirements listed here, follow the requirements provided with the vent.

A firestop is required whenever the vent penetrates a floor or ceiling (or passes through horizontal framing members). A thimble is required whenever the vent passes through a wall (or horizontal framing members).

Venting installation instructions may be found at www.duravent.com. Keep the vent instructions, along with this manual, with the appliance for future reference.

Approved Vent

This fireplace may only use the following vent components (8-5/8” / 6” external diameter co- axial vent). These parts are available from Travis Dealers.

Altitude Considerations

This heater has been tested at altitudes ranging from sea level to 6,000 feet. 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.

Vent Installation

Slide the vent sections together and turn 1/4 turn until the sections lock in place.

Screws are not required to secure the vent. However, three screws may be used to secure vent sections together if desired.

High temperature sealant is recommended at the appliance starter section connection (use high-temperature silicone or Mill-Pac®).

If disassembly is required, at time of re-assembly check to see if the vent creates a tight fit. If it does not, apply high temperature sealant to the joints of the affected sections.

Horizontal sections require a 1/4" rise every 12" of travel

Horizontal sections require non-combustible support every three feet (e.g.: plumbing tape)
