This Gas Fireplace has been approved for:
1. Vertical installations up to 40’ (12 m) in height. Up to
10’ (3 m) horizontal vent run can be installed within
the vent system using a maximum of three 90°
elbows.
2. Up to two 45° elbows may be used within the
horizontal run. For each 45° elbow used on the
horizontal level the maximum horizontal length must
be reduced by 18” (457 mm).
Example: Maximum horizontal length
0 x 45° elbows = 10’ (3 m)
1 x 45° elbows = 8¹⁄₂’ (2.6 m)
2 x 45° elbows = 7’ (2.1 m)
3. A minimum of an 8’ vertical rise.
4. Two sets of 45° elbows offsets within these vertical
installations. From 0 to a maximum of 8’ (2.4 m) of
vent pipe can be used between elbows. (Fig. 34)
5. 7DVCS must be used to support offsets. (Fig. 34)
This application will require that you first determine
the roof pitch and use the appropriate 7DVSKV (A, B
or F). (Refer to Venting Components List, Page 27)

3. Cut opening equal to 9³⁄₈” x 9³⁄₈” (240 x 240 mm).
4. Proceed to plumb for additional openings through
the roof. In all cases, the opening must provide a
minimum of 1 inch clearance to the vent pipe, i.e.,
the hole must be at least 9³⁄₈” x 9³⁄₈” (240 x 240 mm).
5. Place fireplace into position.
6. Place firestop(s) #7DVFS or Attic Insulation Shield
