Dura-Vent Horizontal Installations - Regency C34 Classic Owners & Installation Manual

DURA-VENT
HORIZONTAL
INSTALLATIONS
1. Set the unit in its desired location. Check
to determine if wall studs or roof rafters
are in the way when the venting system is
attached. If this is the case, you may want
to adjust the location of the unit.
2. Direct Vent pipe and fit-
tings are designed with
special twist-lock con-
nections to connect the
venting system to the
appliance flue outlet.
A twist-lock appliance
adaptor is installed on
the unit at the factory.
Assemble the desired
combination of pipe
and elbows to the ap-
pliance adaptor with
pipe seams oriented
towards the wall or ceil-
ing, as much out of view as possible. The
final positioning of the pipe and 90
assembly is determined by the mounting
orientation of the adaptor on the stove and
twist-locked 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
indentations so they match and slide into
the four entry slots on the male ends
(Diagram 1). Push the pipe sections
completely 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. Apply sealant "Mill-Pac" to inner
pipe and to outer pipe on every twist-
lock joint.

b) Horizontal runs of vent must be sup-
ported every three feet. Wall straps are
available for this purpose.
3. With the pipe attached to the stove, slide
the stove into its correct location, and mark
the wall for a 10" x 10" (inside dimensions)
square hole. The center of the square hole
should line up with the centerline of the hori-
zontal pipe, as shown in Diagram 2. Cut and
frame the 10-inch square hole in the exterior
wall where the vent will be terminated. If the
wall being penetrated is constructed of non-
combustible material, i.e. masonry block or
concrete, a 7" diameter hole is acceptable.

a) The horizontal run of vent must be
level, or have a 1/4 inch rise for every
1 foot of run towards the termination.
Never allow the vent to run downward.
This could cause high temperatures
and may present the possibility of a
fire.
b) The location of the horizontal vent
termination on an exterior wall must
meet all local and national building
codes, and must not be blocked
or obstructed. See Diagram 10 in
"External Vent Terminal Locations"
section.
c) Snorkel Terminations:
For installations requiring a vertical rise
on the exterior of the building, 14-inch
and 36-inch tall Snorkel Terminations
as shown in Diagram 3 are available,
as well as the standard Riser Vent, see
Diagram 3a. Follow the same installa-
tion procedures as used for standard
Horizontal Termination. NEVER install
the snorkel upside down.
Below Grade Installation
*Diagram 3, 3a &
4: As specified
in CGA B149 In-
stallation Code.
Local codes or
regulations may
require different
clearances.
Note: Riser Vent is
only for use in above
grade terminations.
If the Snorkel Termination must be installed
below grade, i.e. basement application, proper
drainage must be provided to prevent water
from entering the Snorkel Termination. Refer
to Diagram 4. Do not attempt to enclose the
Snorkel within the wall, or any other type of
enclosure.
