Follow correct option according to venting method.

Connecting Directly to Fireplace

If the air inlet and flue outlet tubes are to be connected directly to

the unit (no rigid venting system is being used), then the gasket

provided must be used to seal the 4" (102 mm) flue outlet tube.

Peel the paper off the self-adhesive gasket and then wrap it around

the end of the tube (if tube was cut, it is recommended to use cut

end) as shown in Figure 51. Pull the gasket tight at all times while

wrapping it around tube. The gasket ends should align, to form a

complete seal. The overlapped section should NOT come in con-

tact with the seam in the tube. Apply high temperature sealant to

the opposite end of the tube (on the inside of the tube). The end

with the gasket will attach to the back of the unit. Continue with

Step 13.

Connecting to Rigid Vent System

If the air inlet and flue outlet tubes are to be connected to a rigid

venting system (and not directly to the back of the unit), then do

not use the gasket provided. High temperature sealant should be

applied to the outside of the 4" diameter (102 mm) flue outlet tube

(if tube was cut, it is recommended to use cut end) and to the in-

side of the tube on the end that connects to the vent cap. Continue

with step 13.

The DVVK-4F FLEX VEnT KIT includes the following components:

•

(1) Horizontal Termination Cap

•

(1) 4-foot section of Flex vent with spacers (4" flue/7" outer

pipe)

•

(1) 4" diameter Flue adapter collar

Flex venting can be installed either vertically or horizontally

off of the DVCD Series fireplaces. When installing a horizontal

vent run from top connections, maintain at least ½" rise for

every 12" of vent run. When venting horizontal off the rear

vent connections, allow a minimum rise of 2". Refer to

Figure 44 when mounting termination near vinyl siding.

CAUTION: Always stretch and secure venting with wire or

metal strapping to ensure that the horizontal runs do not

sag.
