Supply Air Duct Systems

The DVHVAC36 fireplace has three 6" (152 mm) diam-
eter supply air outlets. Duct runs of up to 65 equivalent
feet (19.8 m) using 6" (152 mm) round duct (or equiva-
lent), are permissible. Duct runs of up to 40 equivalent
feet (12.2 m) are permitted using 5" (127 mm) round
duct (or equivalent). Runs of up to 30 equivalent feet
(9 m) are permitted when using 4" (102 mm) round duct
(or equivalent). In all cases, size and install the supply
air system using industry approved standards which
result in a quiet and low static system.

The DVHVAC36 is equipped with a 16" x 16" (256 x
256 mm) return air duct connection. Size and install the
return air system using industry approved standards
that result in a quiet and low static system.
