VENTING
INTRODUCTION
The Horizontal Termination Kit and the Simpson
Dura-Vent Direct Vent System Model DV-GS
venting systems, in combination with the Direct
Vent Freestanding Gas Stoves, H15-NG, and
H15-LP, have been tested and listed as direct
vent heater systems by Warnock Hersey.
These units use the "balanced flue" technol-
ogy Co-Axial system. The inner liner vents
products of combustion to the outside while the
outer pipe draws outside combustion air into
the combustion chamber thereby eliminating
the need to use heated room air for combustion
and losing warm room air up the chimney.
Note: These flue pipes must not be
connected to any other appliance.
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. Common vent sys-
tems are prohibited.
IMPORTANT
Read all instructions carefully before starting
the installation. Failure to follow these instruc-
tions may create a fire or other safety hazard,
and will void the warranty. Be sure to check the
venting and clearance to combustible require-
ments. Consult your local building codes before
beginning installation.
The location of the termination cap must con-
form to the requirements in the Exterior Vent
Terminal Locations on page 10.
1) Remove top casting.
2) Remove all 4 screws that secure
the elbow to the unit using a 1/4"
magnetic nut driver.

ufactured or approved by Simpson Dura-
Vent or FPI Fireplace Products International

Warning: Always maintain required
clearances (air spaces) to nearby
combustibles to prevent a fire haz-
ard. Do not fill air spaces with insu-
lation.
Be sure to check the vent termination clearance
requirements from decks, windows, soffits,
gas regulators, air supply inlets and public
walkways as specified in the Exterior Vent
Terminal Locations on page 10 and in your local
building codes.
The gas appliance and vent system must
be vented directly to the outside of the
