Step 3. Installing the Vent System

A. Vent System Approvals

This model is approved to use DVP-series direct vent pipe components and terminations (see Figures 4 and 5). Approved vent system components are labeled for identiﬁ- cation. This pipe is tested and listed as an approved com- ponent of the ﬁreplace. The pipe is tested to be run inside an enclosed wall. There is no requirement for inspection openings at each joint within the wall. There is no required pitch for horizontal vent runs. NO OTHER VENTING SYS-

TEMS OR COMPONENTS MAY BE USED.

Detailed installation instructions are included with each vent termination kit and should be used in conjunction with this Owner’s Manual. The ﬂame and ember appearance may vary based on the type of fuel burned and the venting conﬁguration used.

Identifying Vent Components

The vent systems installed on this gas ﬁreplace may include one, two, or three 90° elbow assemblies. The relationships of vertical rise to horizontal run in vent conﬁgurations using 90° elbows MUST BE strictly adhered to. The rise to run relationships are shown in the venting drawings and tables. Refer to the diagrams on the next several pages.

NOTE: Two 45° elbows may be used in place of one 90° elbow. Rise to run ratios in the vent system must be fol- lowed if 45° elbows are used.

This model has vent starting collars on both the top and the back of the unit. Depending upon the installation, decide which ONE set of starting collars will be used to attach the vent system. The starting collar sealing cap must remain on the starting collar NOT used.
