INSTALLATION

INSTALLATION

PRECAUTIONS

These venting systems are engineered products
that have been designed and tested for use
with the C34-NG and the C34-LP. The warranty
will be voided and serious fi re, health or other
safety hazards may result from any of the fol-
lowing actions:

1) Installation of any damaged Direct Vent

component

2) Unauthorized

modifi cation of the Direct Vent

System

3) Installation of any component part not manu-

factured or approved by Simpson Dura-Vent
or Fireplace Products International Ltd.

4) Installation other than as instructed by

Simpson Dura-Vent and Fireplace Products
International Ltd.

Warning: Always maintain required
clearances (air spaces) to nearby com-
bustibles to prevent a fi re hazard. Do
not fi ll air spaces with insulation.

Be sure to check the vent termination clearance
requirements from decks, windows, soffi ts,
gas regulators, air supply inlets and public
walkways as specifi ed in the "Exterior Vent
Terminal Locations" section and in your 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 appli-
ance.
Each direct vent gas appliance must use
it's own separate vent system. Common vent
systems are prohibited.

SAFETY

PRECAUTIONS

FOR THE INSTALLER

1) Wear gloves and safety glasses for protec-

tion.

2) Exercise extreme caution when using lad-

ders or on roof tops.

3) Be aware of electrical wiring locations in

walls and ceilings.

VENTING

INTRODUCTION

The DV Stove Horizontal Vent Kit and the Simp-
son Dura-Vent Direct Vent venting systems,
in combination with the Classic Direct Vent
Freestanding Gas Stove, C34-NG and C34-LP,
have been tested and listed as direct vent heater
systems by Warnock Hersey.

If converting a Class-A Metal Chimney or
Masonry Chimney to a Direct Vent system,
see instructions in "Converting Class-A Metal
Chimney or Masonry Chimney to Dreict Vent
System" section.

The C34 uses the "balanced fl ue" technology
Co-Axial system. The inner liner vents products
of combustion to the outside while the outer pipe
draws outside combustion air into the combus-
tion chamber thereby eliminating the need to
use heated room air for combustion and losing
warm room air up the chimney.

Note: These fl ue pipes must not be con-

nected to any other appliance.

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 it's own
separate vent system. Common vent systems
are prohibited.

IMPORTANT

Read all instructions carefully before starting
the installation. Failure to follow these instruc-
tions may create a fi re or other safety hazard,
and will void the warranty. Be sure to check the
venting and clearance to combustible require-
ments. Consult your local building codes before
beginning installation.

The location of the termination cap must conform
to the requirements in the Exterior Vent Terminal
Locations diagram in "Exterior Vent Terminal
Locations" section.

VENT RESTRICTOR

POSITION

Vent restriction is required for certain venting
installations, see the diagrams in "Venting
Arrangment" section to determine if they are
required for your installation.

The vent restrictor has three settings: "C"
Center (factory setting), "L" Left, and "R" Right.
Simply loosen the screws and push the vent
restrictor plate to the correct position. Tighten
the screws.
