Before You Start:
Plan your installation. Read these instructions and the fire-
place installation manual before installing unit and vent
system. Set unit in place and survey how best to vent the
unit. After the vent configuration has been decided, stretch
the flex pipe components out, then trim off what will not be
needed.
Refer to the fireplace installation manual for information on
vertical venting requirements. The maximum length of vent
when using flex venting is 35 feet total. Contact your dealer
or distributor for information on flex vent extension kits that
may be added to the DVVK-4FV kit, in order to terminate up
to 35 feet. Available extension kits include the DVEK-10 (10'
Flex) or the DVEK-25 (25' Flex) extension kits. The exten-
sion kits include connection hardware.

Installation of the Vertical Flex termination Kit
ensure that the venting system exits the structure through
the roof and does not terminate less than 12 inches (305
mm) above the roof.
Refer to your fireplace homeowner's manual for the minimum
and maximum venting requirement of your fireplace prior to
installation. Failure to do so may cause a fire hazard.
This flexible pipe termination kit is ONLY for vertical terminations.
Any horizontal run section must have a 1/4" rise for every
one foot of run towards the vent termination. Never allow
the vent pipe to run downward. this could cause high tem-
peratures and may present a fire hazard. This vertical kit
may incorporate two 90 degree bends, but must terminate
vertically.
This flex vent kit can only be installed vertically off of the
unit and must terminate vertically.
Because of sharp edges, always use gloves when handling
the flex vent components.
Vent connections should overlap a minimum of 1" for prop-
er sealing.
Always stretch and secure venting with metal strapping
secured with nails (nails and strapping not supplied) to en-
sure that the flex vent runs remain true.
