DURA-VENT
TERMINATION KIT
Planning Your Dura-Vent
Installation
There are two basic types of Dura-Vent Direct
Vent System installations: horizontal termina-
tion and vertical termination. Confirm the max-
imum horizontal run and maximum vertical rise
from the diagrams on pages 8-13.
When planning your installation, it will be nec-
essary to select the proper length of vent pipe
for your particular requirements. For horizontal
installations, determine the minimum clearance
from the rear of the unit to the wall. It is also
important to note the wall thickness. (The wall
thimble is suitable for 2 x 4 or 2 x 6 wall
construction.) Select the amount of vertical rise
desired for "vertical-to-horizontal" type instal-
lations.
Warning: Always maintain required clear-
ances (air spaces) to nearby combusti-
bles to prevent a fire hazard. Do not fill air
spaces with insulation.
The minimum clearance requirements between
the outer wall of the vent pipe and nearby
combustible surfaces is 1-1/4 inch. Be sure to
check the vent termination clearance require-
ments from decks, windows, soffits, gas reg-
ulators, air supply inlets and public walkways
as specified in the Exterior Vent Terminal Loca-
tions on page 8 and in your local building codes.
To determine the length of vent pipe required for
vertical installations, measure the distance from
the unit flue outlet to the ceiling, the ceiling
thickness, the vertical rise in an attic or second
storey, and allow for sufficient vertical height
above the roof line.
For multi-storey applications, fire stops are
required at each floor level. If an offset is
needed, additional pipe, elbows and supports
will be required.

Note:
These are the minimum pieces
required. Other parts may be re-
quired for your particular instal-
lation. See page 13 for a list of vent
parts.
If installing termination on a siding covered wall,
a vinyl siding standoff or furring strips can be
used in order to ensure that the termination is
not recessed into siding.
The vinyl siding standoff is required for walls
with vinyl siding.
