INSTALLATION

DURA-VENT

TERMINATION KIT

Planning Your Dura-Vent

Installation

There are two basic types of Dura-Vent Direct Vent System installations: horizontal termina- tion and vertical termination. Confirm the max- imum horizontal run and maximum vertical rise from the diagrams on pages 8-13.

When planning your installation, it will be nec- essary to select the proper length of vent pipe for your particular requirements. For horizontal installations, determine the minimum clearance from the rear of the unit to the wall. It is also important to note the wall thickness. (The wall thimble is suitable for 2 x 4 or 2 x 6 wall construction.) Select the amount of vertical rise desired for "vertical-to-horizontal" type instal- lations.

Warning: Always maintain required clear- ances (air spaces) to nearby combusti- bles to prevent a fire hazard. Do not fill air spaces with insulation.

The minimum clearance requirements between the outer wall of the vent pipe and nearby combustible surfaces is 1-1/4 inch. Be sure to check the vent termination clearance require- ments from decks, windows, soffits, gas reg- ulators, air supply inlets and public walkways as specified in the Exterior Vent Terminal Loca- tions on page 8 and in your local building codes.

Note: These are the minimum pieces required. Other parts may be re- quired for your particular instal- lation. See page 13 for a list of vent parts.

If installing termination on a siding covered wall, a vinyl siding standoff or furring strips can be used in order to ensure that the termination is not recessed into siding.

The vinyl siding standoff is required for walls with vinyl siding.

The Simpson Dura-Vent Direct Vent System offers a complete line of component parts for installation of both horizontal and vertical instal- lation. Many items are offered in decorative black, as well as galvanized finish. The galva- nized pipe and fittings are used for concealed locations such as attics or where corrosion is a factor, such as above the roof line. Decora- tive brass trim kits are available for both wall thimbles and ceiling support boxes.

To determine the length of vent pipe required for vertical installations, measure the distance from the unit flue outlet to the ceiling, the ceiling thickness, the vertical rise in an attic or second storey, and allow for sufficient vertical height above the roof line.

For multi-storey applications, fire stops are required at each floor level. If an offset is needed, additional pipe, elbows and supports will be required.
