DuraVent Venting System For Direct Vent Pro - Manual (Page 4)

4
APPLICATION
These instructions apply to the M&G
DuraVent DirectVent Pro 4”x6-5/8”
and 5”x8” systems. This venting
system, in combination with the gas
appliance, has been tested and listed
as a decorative gas appliance system
or as a direct vent heater system
by a major testing agency such as
UL, AGA, CGA, OMNI, or Warnock
Hersey. Check the manufacturer’s
rating plate and instruction manual to
confirm that the M&G DuraVent Direct
Vent is approved for use on the brand
name appliance you have selected.
IMPORTANT
Read all instructions carefully before
starting the installation. Failure to follow
these instructions may create a fire or
other safety hazard and will void the
warranty. Check with the appliance
manufacturer’s installation
instructions for specific venting
and clearance to combustible
requirements, which may vary from
one appliance to another. Be sure
to comply with minimum or maximum
distances of vertical or horizontal
runs as prescribed in the appliance
manufacturer’s installation instructions.
WARNING
• Always maintain required clearances
(air spaces) to nearby combustibles
to prevent a fire hazard. Do not fill
air spaces with insulation. Be sure to
check the appliance manufacturer’s
installation instructions for minimum
clearance requirements between
the outer walls of the vent pipe and
nearby combustible surfaces. Be
sure to check the vent termination
clearance requirements from decks,
windows, soffits, gas regulators, air
supply inlets, and public walkways,
as specified in these installation
instructions and local building codes.
• 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 its
own separate vent system. Common
vent systems are prohibited.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
FOR THE INSTALLER
• Wear gloves and safety glasses for
protection.
• Exercise extreme caution when
using ladders or on roof tops.
• Be aware of electrical wiring
locations in walls and ceilings.
