Venting Installation - Superior DRT4036TEN Installation And Operation Instructions Manual

NOTICE: Read these instruc-
tions completely before attempt-
ing installation.
These models are tested and approved for
use with an IHP (direct vent) pipe components
and terminations.
The venting system must terminate on the
outside of the structure and can not be at-
tached to a chimney or flue system serving a
separate solid fuel or gas burning appliance.
A direct vent appliance must have its own
venting system. DO NOT common vent this
appliance.
These models are approved to be vented
either horizontally through an outside wall or
vertically through a roof or chase enclosure
using the following guidelines:
• When venting system terminates horizon-
tally on an outside wall, you may install
a standoff if the termination cap is to be
installed directly on a combustible finish
such as vinyl, wood, stucco, etc.
• Never run the vent downward as this may
cause excessive temperatures which could
cause a fire.
• Vent pipe air space clearances to com-
bustibles are 1" on all sides except on the
horizontal sections, which requires 2" clear-
ance from the top of the pipe. Where the
termination cap penetrates a combustible
wall, 1" air space clearance is required.
• Have fireplace and selected vent compo-
nents on hand to help determine the exact
measurements when elbowing or offsetting.
Always use wall firestops when penetrating
walls and firestops when penetrating ceil-
ings or attic spaces.
• For installation of fireplace at elevations of
4000 feet or greater, pay special attention
to venting requirement recommendations.
WARNING: Read all instruc-
tions completely and thoroughly
before attempting installation.
Failure to do so could result in
serious injury, property damage
or loss of life.
NOTICE: Failure to follow these
instructions will void the warranty.
