Venting Introduction
The Horizontal Termination Kit and the Simpson
Dura-Vent Direct Vent venting systems, in combina-
tion with the Direct Vent Freestanding Gas Stoves,
H15U-NG, and H15U-LP, were tested and listed
as direct vent heater systems by Warnock Hersey.
These units use the "balanced flue" technology
Co-Axial system. The inner liner vents products
of combustion to the outside while the outer pipe
draws outside combustion air into the combustion
chamber thereby eliminating the need to use heated
room air for combustion and losing warm room air
up the chimney.
Note: These flue pipes must not be
connected to any other appliance.
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.
Common vent systems are prohibited.
IMPORTANT
Read all instructions carefully before starting the
installation. Failure to follow these instructions may
create a fire or other safety hazard, and will void the
warranty. Be sure to check the venting and clear-
ance to combustible requirements. Consult your
local building codes before beginning installation.
The location of the termination cap must conform
to the requirements in the "Exterior Vent Terminal
Locations" section.
Installation Precautions
These venting systems are engineered products
that have been designed and tested for use with the
H15U-NG and H15U-LP. The warranty will be voided

and serious fire, health or other safety hazards may
result from any of the following actions:
1) Installation of any damaged rigid pipe compo-
nent.
2) Unauthorized modification of any rigid pipe

Warning: Always maintain required
clearances (air spaces) to nearby
combustibles to prevent a fire hazard.
Do not fill air spaces with insulation.
Be sure to check the vent termination clearance
requirements from decks, windows, soffits, gas
regulators, air supply inlets and public walkways as
specified in the "Exterior Vent Terminal Locations"
section and in your local building codes.

Safety Precautions for the
Installer

2) Exercise extreme caution when using ladders
or on roof tops.
3) Be aware of electrical wiring locations in walls
and ceilings.
3) Unhook the back panel.
4) Remove all 4 screws that secure the elbow to the
unit using a 1/4" magnetic nut driver.
Vent Restrictor Position
To set the Vent restriction as indicated in the Venting
Arrangement diagrams in the "Rigid Pipe Venting
System" section, simply loosen the screws and
push the vent restrictor plate to the correct posi-
tion. Tighten the screws. This will be located inside
the firebox.
5) Rotate the elbow 180 degrees.
