INSTALLATIONS

Install the flue system according to the manufacturer's instructions included with the components.

1) Set the unit in its desired location. Check to

determine if wall studs or roof rafters are in

the way when the flueing system is at-

tached. If this is the case, you may want to

adjust the location of the unit. Rough in the

gas.

gram 1. Push the pipe sections com- pletely together, then twist-lock one section clockwise approximately one- quarter turn, until the two sections are fully locked. The female locking lugs will not be visible from the outside, on the Black Pipe or fittings. They may be located by examining the inside of the female ends.

2)

Direct Flue pipe and fittings are designed

 

with special twist-lock connections to con-

 

nect the flueing system to the appliance flue

 

outlet. A twist-lock appliance adaptor is an

 

available option that must be used in con-

 

junction with the Simpson Dura-Vent Direct

 

Vent GS system.

3) Put a bead of silicone inside the outer section

 

of the adapter and a bead of Mill Pac on the

 

inner collar. Slip the adapter over the exist-

 

ing inner and outer flue collar and fasten to

 

the outer collar only with the 3 supplied

 

screws (drilling pilot holes will make this

 

easier). Level the fireplace and fasten it to

 

the framing using nails or screws through

 

the nailing strips.

4)

Assemble the desired combination of pipe

 

and elbows to the appliance adaptor and

 

twist-lock for a solid connection.

Note:

a)Twist-lock procedure: Four indentations, located on the female ends of pipes and fittings, are designed to slide straight onto the male ends of adjacent pipes and fittings, by orienting the four pipe inden- tations so they match and slide in to the four entry slots on the male ends, Dia-

Diagram 1

Note: Apply sealant "Mill-Pac" to inner pipe and high temperature sili- cone sealant to outer pipe on eve- ry twist-lock joint.

b)Horizontal runs of flue must be sup- ported every three feet. Wall straps are available for this purpose.

5)Mark the wall for a 10" x 10" square hole. The center of the square hole should line up with the centerline of the horizontal pipe. Cut and frame the 10 inch square hole in the exterior wall where the flue will be termi- nated. If the wall being penetrated is con- structed of non-combustible material, i.e. masonry block or concrete, a 7"(178mm) dia. (7-1/2"(191mm) dia. for flex) hole is acceptable.

Note: With Dura-Vent, the minimum height is achieved by installing a 45o elbow di- rectly to the flue adaptor.

Diagram 2

Note:

a)The horizontal run of flue must be level, or have a 1/4 inch rise for every 1 foot of run towards the termination. Never allow the flue to run downward. This could cause high temperatures and may present the possibility of a fire.

b)The location of the horizontal flue termi- nation on an exterior wall must meet all local and national building codes, and must not be blocked or obstructed. For External Flue Terminal Locations, see diagram on page 12.

6)The arrow on the flue cap should be pointing up. Insure that the 1-1/2" clear- ances to combustible materials are main- tained (Diagram 3 on page 16). Install the termination cap.

The four wood screws provided should be replaced with appropriate fasteners for stucco, brick, concrete, or other types of sidings.

Note: If installing termination on a siding covered wall, a vinyl siding stand- off or furring strips must be used
