This gas fireplace has been approved for,
• Vertical installations up to 40' (12 m) in height. Up to
a 10' (3 m) horizontal vent run can be installed within
the vent system using a maximum of two 90° elbows.
Figure 18
nOte: Horizontal and vertical sections of this vent system
require a minimum 1" clearance to combustibles at the top,
sides and bottom.
Example: Elbow 1 = 90°
Elbow 2 = 45°
Elbow 3 = 45°
Elbow 4 = 90°
Total Angular Variation = 270°

the maximum horizontal length must be reduced by 18"
(450 mm).
Example: Maximum horizontal length
No elbows = 10’ (3 m)
1x45° elbows = 8.5’ (2.6 m)
2x45° elbows = 7’ (2.1 m)
• A minimum of an 12' (3.6 m) vertical rise is
required.
• Two sets of 45° elbows offsets may be used within
the vertical sections. From 0 to a maximum of 8'
(2.5 m) of vent pipe can be used between elbows.
