VENTING The Solas Nua Freestaning Direct Vent Gas Stove has been tested and listed for installation with 4” X 6 ® ® 5/8” Simpson DuraVent GS/Pro Selkirk Direct-Temp , Security Secure Vent™, AmeriVent Direct™ Metal t venting components. Although you may use the pipe components Fab Direct Vent and ICC EXCELDirec (straight pipe, elbows, etc.) from any of the listed manufacturers, you may only use the vent terminations (caps) listed in the chart on page 8.
Page 8 USING THE VENTING CHARTS The location of the vent termination must meet the requirements of the current edition of ANSI Z223.1/  NFPA 54, National Fuel Gas Code or CAN B419.1, Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code and the requirements shown on page 15 of this manual. Just as with any other vented device, vertical vent rise creates draft (negative pressure) in the firebox as the exhaust gases heat up.
