Oxford Direct Vent / Natural Vent Gas Heater

Venting System Assembly - Natural Vent

The heater is shipped from the factory as a Direct Vent
Heater. It may be converted to a Natural Vent heater by
installing the Model FSDHAG Draft Hood Adapter.
The heater is approved for installation as a Natural Vent.
Vermont Castings Group Direct Vent pipe could be used
directly after the Draft Hood Adapter up to the ceiling,
then B-vent pipe must be used. Do not mix types of B-
vent pipe; use components from one maker or the other.
Follow the vent component maker's instructions exactly.
The heater will also accept standard or enamelled 7" (150
mm) diameter pipe, around the Type B venting, for deco-
rative purposes only. (Fig. 32)
NOTE: The restrictor plate supplied with the stove is
not used for Natural Vent applications.

The stove, when installed as a Natural vent heater, in-
cludes a vent safety switch. (Fig. 63, Page 32) Operating
the stove when it is not connected to a properly installed
and maintained venting system, or tampering with or dis-
connecting the vent safety switch, can result in carbon
monoxide (CO) poisoning and possible death.
For U.S. installations: The venting system must conform
with local codes and/or the current National Fuel Gas
Code, ANSI Z22.1.
For Canadian installations: The venting system must
conform to the current CSA B149.1 installation code.
Apply a bead of sealant around bottom end of inner start-
er pipe (found in bag with logset) and attach to stove. Ap-
ply a bead of sealant around top of inner starter pipe and
install the FSDHAG Draft Hood according to Draft Hood
ST221
