    Step 3. INSTALL THE VENT SYSTEM General Information These instructions should be used as a guide- line and do not supersede local codes in any way. Install vent according to local codes, these instructions, the current National Fuel Gas Code (ANSI-Z223.1) in the USA or the current standards of CAN/CGA-B149.1 and -B149.2 in Canada.
  • Page 12: Vertical Termination Systems

    VERTICAL TERMINATION SYSTEMS (ROOF) See Figure 20 on Page 12 and Figures 28- 32 on Pages 15 and 16 and their associated Vertical Vent Tables which illustrate the various vertical venting configurations that are possible for use with these appliances. Secure Vent pipe applications are shown in these Figures; Secure Flex pipe may also be used. A Vertical Vent Table summarizes each system’s minimum and maximum vertical and horizontal length values that can be used to design and install the vent components in a variety of applications. Both these vertical vent systems terminate through the roof. The minimum vent height above the roof and/or adjacent walls is speci- fied in ANSI Z223.1-(latest edition) (In Canada,...
  • Page 13 Vertical (Offset) Installation Analyze the vent routing and determine the quantities of vent sections and number of elbows required. Refer to Vertical Vent Figures and Tables on Pages 15 and 16 to select the type of vertical installation desired. Vent sections are available in net lengths of 4-1/2" (114 mm), 10-1/2" (267 mm), 22-1/2" (572 mm), 34-1/2" (876 mm) and 46-1/2" (1181 mm). Refer to the Vent Section Length Chart on Page 12 for an aid in selecting length combinations. Elbows are available in 90° and 45° configurations. Refer to Figure 24 on Page 14 for the SV4.5E45 and...

    One method of support is by utilizing field pro- vided support straps (conventional plumber's tape). Secure the plumber's tape to the framing members with nails or screws. Loop the tape around the vent, securing the ends of the tape to the framing. If desired, sheet metal screws #6 x 1/2" length may be used to secure the support straps to the vent pipe. Refer to Figure 23. F. Change vent direction to horizontal/inclined run - At transition from or to a horizontal/in- clined run, install the SV4.5E45 and SV4.5E90 elbows in the same manner as the straight vent sections. The elbows feature a twist section to allow them to be routed about the center axis of their initial collar section to align with the required direction of the next vent run element. Twist elbow sections in a clockwise direction only so as to avoid the possiblity of unlocking any of the previously connected vent sections.
  • Page 15 Notes: • It is very important that the horizontal/in- clined run be maintained in a straight (no dips) and recommended to be in a slightly elevated plane, in a direction away from the fireplace of 1/4" rise per foot (20 mm per meter) which is ideal, though rise per foot run ratios that are smaller are acceptable all the way down to at or near level.

  • Page 18 J. Assemble vent run to exterior wall - If not previously measured, locate the center of the vent at the exterior wall. Prepare an opening as described in Step B. Assemble the vent system to point where the terminus of the last section is located relative to the exterior surface to which the termination is to be attached as shown in Figure 35 and Table 12 on Pages 18 & 19. If the terminus of the last section is not within this distance, use the telescopic vent section SV4.5LA, as the last vent section. For wall thicknesses greater than that shown in Figure 35, refer to Table 12 on Page 19. This Table lists the additional venting components needed (in addition to the termination and adapter) for a particular range of wall thicknesses.

    HORIZONTAL VENT FIGURES/TABLES Notes: • Secure Vent components (rigid vent pipe and terminal) are shown in the Figures; Secure Flex components (flexible vent pipe and terminal) may also be used. • Two 45 degree elbows may be used in place of one 90 degree elbow. The same rise to run ratios, as shown in the venting Figures for 90 elbows,must be followed if 45 degree elbows are used.

    VERTICAL OR HORIZONTAL VENTING USING SECuRE FLEX KITS AND COMPONENTS Secure Flex venting kits and components may be used in any venting application in place of rigid Secure Vent (SV4.5) direct vent components. All restrictions, clearances and allowances that pertain to the rigid piping apply to the flexible venting. Secure Flex kits may not be modified; also, under no circumstances may separate sections of flex pipe be joined together.

    Step 4. FIELD WIRING CAUTION Label all wires prior to discon- nection when servicing controls. Wiring errors can cause improper and dangerous appliance opera- tion. CAUTION Ensure that wires are positioned away from hot surfaces and sharp edges. CAUTION Do not connect the optional wall switch for burner operation to a 120 Volt AC power supply.

  • Page 25: Step 7. Checking Unit Operation

    TEST ALL CONNECTIONS FOR GAS LEAKS (FACTORY AND FIELD): WARNING Never use an open flame to check for leaks. Turn on gas supply and test for gas leaks using a gas leak test solution (also referred to as bubble leak solution). Note: Using a soapy water solution (50% dish soap, 50% water) is an effective leak test solution but it is not recommended, because the soap residue that is left on the pipes/fittings can result in corrosion over time. A. Light the appliance (refer to the lighting instructions label in control compartment or homeowner's manual). B. Brush all joints and connections with the gas leak test solution to check for leaks. If bubbles are formed, or gas odor is detected, turn the gas control knob (off/pilot/on) to the “OFF” position. Either tighten or refasten the leaking connection, then retest as described above.
