Vent Requirements

! Always maintain the required 1" clearance (air space) to combustible materials to prevent a fire
hazard. Do not fill air spaces with insulation.
! The gas appliance and vent system must be vented directly to the outside of the building, and never
be attached to a chimney serving a separate solid fuel or gas-burning appliance. Each direct vent gas
appliance must use it's own separate vent system.
! If the stove is installed at
an altitude over 3,000
feet the flame quality
will need to be carefully
evaluated. See
Addendum #1, "Altitude
Considerations", on page
39.
¥ When the vent passes
through a wall, a wall
thimble is required.
When the vent passes
through a ceiling, a
support box or firestop is
required. When the vent
passes through the roof,
a roof flashing and storm
collar are required.
Follow the instructions
and requirements
provided with the vent
when installing.
¥ Use Model GS Direct Vent manufactured by Simpson Dura-Vent only (or the Chimney Conversion
Kit - see Addendum #2). Follow the installation instructions included with the vent. For the nearest
Simpson Dura-Vent supplier, call (800) 835-4429. Part numbers and descriptions are listed below.

¥ Apply high-temperature silicone to the inner and outer pipe before
assembling the sections (on the male, upper section). This seals
the inner pipe from the outer pipe. Slide the sections together and
turn 1/4 turn until the sections lock in place. Install three metal
screws through each joint to lock the outer section in place (see the
instructions included with the vent for further details).
¥ Horizontal sections require a 1/4" rise every 12" of travel
+ Exterior Vent Diameter = 6-5/8", Inner Vent Diameter = 4"
¥ Horizontal sections require non-combustible support every three feet (e.g.: plumbing tape)
