9. INSTALLATIONS WITH HORIZONTAL TERMINATION – INSTALLING
See sections 4 & 5 for full range of horizontal termination applications.
9.1. Installations except with Valor #551DVK Terminal – Vent pipe fitting
Fit all the required Dura-vent DV GS pipes and elbows securely twist locking each section. See the Dura-vent instructions
supplied with the sections

9.2. Making Wall Opening

If the wall is constructed of solid non-combustible materials and has no combustible surface cladding (including wood) inside
or outside the wall plates or Dura-vent thimbles will not be required.
With all the required Dura-vent pipes attached, slide the appliance into its correct location (If the Valor #551DVK terminal is
being used, leave it off at this stage). If the wall has combustible material, mark the wall for a 10"x10" square hole if the wall.
If the wall is totally non-combustible (e.g. masonry block or concrete) mark for a 7" circular hole. In both cases, the center of
the hole should line up with the centerline of the horizontal vent.

9.3. Flat On Wall Installations With Valor #551DVK Terminal

1.
Cut the vent terminal pipe
unit to size (Fig. 52).
Important! The drain hole must
be clearly outside the wall.
a)
Measure the wall thickness.
1
b)
Add 1
/
" (32mm) for wall
4
stand-off spacers if fitted or, if
appliance is not going to touch
the wall, add distance from case
rear to wall.
c)
Measure this total length
along the vent unit from where
the termination cap joins the
main terminal pipes. Mark the
unit.
d)
Insert the Styrofoam support
ring and push it as close as
possible to the marked position.
e)
Cut the vent tubes squarely
to length.
f)
Make
sure
that
Styrofoam is removed from the
vent unit after cutting.
2.
Fit the vent unit fully over
the appliance inlet and outlet
collars pushing on firmly. Make
sure that the drain hole is at the
bottom – the seam will be
through the notch in the wall
plates – See figure 55.
3.
Drill through the terminal outer tube and appliance outer collar for #6 screws. See figure 52. Make sure that the drill
does not penetrate the inner tubes.
4.
Secure the terminal to the outer collar with two #6 thread cutting screws supplied (Fig. 52).
