Vent System Identification; Special Vent Systems - Empire Comfort Systems DVD32 Installation Instructions And Owner's Manual

Begin the vent system installation by selecting the type of venting
to be installed and the path that it will take. Verify that clearances
are met throughout the path of the venting system. Determine if the
fireplace is to be vented out the top or out the rear.
NOTICE: Some fireplaces cannot be vented out the rear of the fireplace.
Determine how the vent system will be terminated out the side of
the house or through the roof. Verify clearances for the termination.
When selecting a vent system for use with the fireplace, refer to the
"Special Vent Systems" section in this manual to determine what
systems are acceptable.
The following vent systems are acceptable for use with the
DVD (32, 36, 42, 48) series fireplaces:
• Simpson Duravent® GS 4" - 6 ⅝"
• American Metal Products 4" - 6 ⅝"

Check all clearances and venting components. Identify if any
problems existing in the vent system. Use Figure 22, page 18 for
top venting or Figure 32, page 22 for rear venting to eliminate issues
after installation. Check pipe diameter on vent system and fireplace
to verify the size is the same.
NOTICE: All outer connection joints must be sealed with
aluminum tape, screws or silicone sealant rated above
300°F/149°C. The inner flue joints do not require any sealant.
