Note:
a) The horizontal run of vent should have
a 1/4 inch rise for every 1 foot of run
towards the termination. Never allow
the vent to run downward. This could
cause high temperatures and may
present the possibility of a fire.
b) The location of the horizontal vent ter-
mination on an exterior wall must meet
all local and national building codes, and
must not be blocked or obstructed. For
External Vent Terminal Locations, see
diagram on page 10.
4) If installing the vent termination to a wall with
vinyl siding, the Vinyl Siding Standoff must
be used. Attach the Vinyl Siding Standoff to
the Horizontal Vent Termination, but first
run a bead of non-hardening mastic around
its outside edges, so as to make a seal
between vent cap and the standoff. Install
the Vinyl Siding Standoff (Part # 950) be-
tween the vent cap and the exterior wall
and attach with the four wood screws
provided. Seal around the Vinyl Siding
Standoff on all four sides. Diagram 6. The
arrow on the vent cap should be point-
ing up. Insure that the 1-1/4" clearances to
combustible materials are maintained. See
diagram 4.
Note: If installing termination on a siding
covered wall, a vinyl siding stand-
off or furring strips must be used
to ensure that the termination is
DURA-VENT HORIZONTAL INSTALLATIONS
Diagram 1:
Hint: Apply silicone to female end.
Note:
a) Twist-lock procedure: Four indenta-
tions, located on the female ends of
pipes and fittings, are designed to slide
straight onto the male ends of adjacent
pipes and fittings, by orienting the four
pipe indentations so they match and
slide in to the four entry slots on the male
ends (diagram 1). Push the pipe sec-
tions completely together, then twist-
lock one section clockwise approxi-
mately one-quarter turn, until the two
sections are fully locked. The female
locking lugs will not be visible from the
outside on the Black Pipe or fittings.
They may be located by examining the
inside of the female ends. Apply seal-
ant "Mill-Pac" to inner pipe and high temp
silicone sealant to outer pipe on every
twist-lock joint.

Snorkel Termination diagrams show the vent-
ing arrangements for units converted to the
lower Btu rating of 27,000 (NG) or 29,000 (LP).
1) Set the unit in its desired location. Check to
determine if wall studs or roof rafters are
in the way when the venting system is
attached. If this is the case, you may want
to adjust the location of the unit.
2) Direct Vent pipe and fittings are designed
with special twist-lock connections to con-
nect the venting system to the appliance
flue outlet. A twist-lock appliance adapter
is installed on the unit at the factory. As-
semble the desired combina-
tion of pipe and elbows to the
appliance adapter with pipe
seams oriented towards
the wall or ceiling, as
much out of view as pos-
sible. The final position-
ing of the pipe and 90
o
elbow assembly is de-
termined by the mount-
ing orienta-
tion of the
adapter on
the stove
and twist-
locked for a
solid con-
nection.
b) Horizontal runs of vent must be sup-
ported every three feet. Wall straps are
available for this purpose.
c) Snorkel Terminations:
For installations requiring a vertical rise
on the exterior of the building, 14-inch
and 36-inch tall Snorkel Terminations
and the Riser Vent as shown in Dia. 2
& 2a are available. Follow the same
installation procedures as used for
standard Horizontal Termination. NEV-
ER install the snorkel upside down.
Below Grade Snorkel Installation
If the Snorkel Termination must be installed
below grade, i.e. basement application,
proper drainage must be provided to pre-
vent water from entering the Snorkel Ter-
mination. Refer to Dura-Vent Installation
instructions for details. Do not attempt to
enclose the Snorkel within the wall, or any
other type of enclosure.
3) With the pipe attached to the stove, slide
the stove into its correct location, and mark
the wall for a 10" x 10" (inside dimensions)
square hole. The center of the square hole
should line up with the centerline of the
horizontal pipe, as shown in diagram 3. Cut
and frame the 10 inch square hole in the
exterior wall where the vent will be termi-
nated. If the wall being penetrated is con-
structed of non- combustible material, i.e.
masonry block or
concrete, a 7" di-
ameter hole is
acceptable.
