Figures 28 shows the range of venting options, it shows possible vent configurations if the unit is top

vented, for vertical and horizontal terminations, any layout that remains within the shaded area is

acceptable. Having the fewest number of elbows is ideal, as they tend to disrupt air movement. Using

45˚ elbows is preferable to using 90˚ elbows. Also, a shorter vent system will perform better than a

longer one.

The vent restrictor controls the amount of air

moving through the vent pipe. Longer vertical

vent lengths necessitate greater restriction;

position 1 is open and position 5 is maximum

restriction. Figure 28 shows the vent restrictor

settings required, relative to the length of vent

pipe. The vent restrictor is located on the right

side of the fireplace, above the glass. Figure

29 shows the vent restrictor handle and the

holes that indicate the different levels. To avoid

injury, it is best to make this adjustment when

the fireplace is cool or use welder’s gloves or

oven mitts.
Note: 0,0 in Figure 28 represents a 90˚ bend

directly off the outlet of the unit, 46” (1169 mm)

from floor. This is for all horizontal instances

except when using Selkirk and having less

than a 4 feet (1.22 m) rise and 8 feet (2.44 m)

horizontal offset. In this case, a 1 foot rise must

be added below the 90˚ bend.
