How to Use the Vent Graph

1. Determine the height of the center of the horizontal

vent pipe exiting through the outer wall. Using this
dimension on the Sidewall Vent Graph (Fig. 12),
locate the point it intersects with the slanted graph
line.

2. From the point of this intersection, draw a vertical

line to the bottom of the graph.

3. Select the indicated dimension, and position the fire-

place in accordance with same. (Refer to examples
Fig. 12)

EXAMPLE A:
If the vertical dimension from the floor of the unit is 11'
(3.4m) the horizontal run to the face of the outer wall
must not exceed 14' (4.3 m).
EXAMPLE B:
If the vertical dimension from the floor of the unit is 7'
(2m), the horizontal run to the face of the outer wall
must not exceed 8¹⁄₂' (2.6 m).

Corner Installation

When the DVHVAC36 unit is installed in a corner,
Figure 1, Option B, the vent configuration must fol-
low the Vertical Sidewall Installation Instructions.

Rear Wall Venting Applications

This appliance may be vented directly to a termination
located on the rear wall behind the appliance.
NOTE: It is not necessary to seal the vent pipe joints for
any rear vent applications.

Only CFM Corporation venting components are
approved to be used in these applications. Refer to
“Venting Components” listed for different installation
requirements.

The maximum horizontal distance between the rear
of the appliance and the outside face of the rear wall
is 20” (508 mm). (Fig. 13)

Minimum clearances between vent pipe and com-
bustible materials are as follows:

Top - 2” (51 mm)

Sides - 1” (25 mm)

Bottom - 1” (25 mm)

Rear Wall Installations

STEP 1
Locate vent opening on wall. To locate hole center, refer
to appropriate fireplace dimensions on Page 4.
Combustible Walls (Fig. 14): Cut a 10³⁄₈" x 9³⁄₈" (265 x
240 mm) hole through the exterior wall and frame as
shown.
Noncombustible Walls (Fig. 14): Hole opening must be
7¹⁄₂" (191 mm) in diameter.
STEP 2
Measure wall thickness and cut adjustable zero clear-
ance sleeve parts to proper length (MAXIMUM 12" /
305 mm). Adjust sleeve to maximum (10³⁄₈" x 9³⁄₈" / 265
x 240 mm) and attach to firestop with #8 sheet metal
screws (supplied). (Fig. 15) Install firestop assembly.
