ADDENDUM #1 Altitude Considerations
This stove has been tested at altitudes ranging from sea level to 8,000 feet. In this research, we have
found that the stove, with its standard orifice, burns correctly with just an air shutter adjustment. This
testing, however, does not guarantee that every installation will work correctly. Compounding forces,
including gas BTU level, vent configuration, ambient temperature and altitude, may lead to improper
combustion inside the stove. For those stoves that burn excessively tall (flames touch the firebox
ceiling) or sooty, additional modifications may be necessary. Contact your dealer for instructions.
!
Failure to remedy incorrect combustion may lead to an extreme safety hazard or decreased durability
of the stove.
ADDENDUM #2 Class A Chimney Conversion Kit
Simpson Duravent provides a conversion kit for those wishing to use an existing wood stove chimney to
vent this direct vent stove. The illustration below gives an overview of this type of installation. See the
instructions included with the kit for details.
!
The conversion kit does not work on "thru-the-wall" chimney systems.
! Do not exceed the maximum vertical rise (see the section "Acceptable Vent Configurations"
starting on page 16) allowable. Remember to set the restrictor position to the correct position
(based upon the vertical rise height - see the chart on page 16).
