OWNER’S MANUAL
VENTING INSTALLATION
WARNING: Read all instruc­tions completely and thoroughly before attempting installation. Failure to do so could result in serious injury, property damage or loss of life. Operation of im­properly installed and maintained venting system could result in serious injury, property damage or loss of life.
WARNING: Seal all vent con­nections. Seal only the outer pipe connections with high temperature silicone (600°F/316° C). Before join­ing elbows and pipes, apply a bead of high temperature silicone seal­ant (GE RTV 106/Loctite RTV 81585) to the male end of the elbow or pipe. High temperature silicone must also be used to re-seal any connections after maintenance to venting system.
NOTICE: Failure to follow these instructions will void the warranty.
INSTALLATION PRECAUTIONS
Consult local building codes before beginning the installation. The installer must make sure to select the proper vent system for installa­tion. Before installing vent kit, the installer must read this fireplace manual and vent kit instructions.
Only a qualified service person should in­stall venting system. The installer must fol­low these safety rules:
• Wear gloves and safety glasses for protection
• Use extreme caution when using ladders or when on roof tops
• Be aware of electrical wiring locations in walls and ceilings
The following actions will void the war­ranty on your venting system:
• Installation of any damaged venting component
• Unauthorized modification of the vent­ing system
• Installation of any component part not manufactured or approved by DESA International
• Installation other than as instructed by these instructions
WARNING: This gas fireplace and vent assembly must be vented directly to the outside. The venting system must NEVER be attached to a chimney serving a separate solid fuel burning ap­pliance. Each gas appliance must use a separate vent system. Do not use common vent systems.
WARNING: Horizontal sec­tions of this vent system require a minimum clearance of 2" from the top of the pipe and 1" minimum to the sides and bottom. 1 1/2" clear­ance is required where the termi­nation penetrates a combustible wall. Vertical sections of this sys­tem require a minimum of 1" clear­ance to combustible materials on all sides of the pipe.
INSTALLATION PLANNING
There are two basic types of direct-vent installation:
• Horizontal T ermination
• Vertical Termination It is important to select the proper length of
vent pipe for the type of termination you choose. It is also important to note the wall thickness.
For Horizontal Termination: Select the
amount of vertical rise desired. The horizon­tal run of venting must have 1/4" rise for every 12" of run towards the termination.
WARNING: Never run the vent downward as this may cause ex­cessive temperatures which could cause a fire.
You may use one or two 90° elbows in this vent configuration. See Horizontal Termina- tion Configurations on pages 10 and 11.
For Vertical Termination: Measure the dis-
tance from the fireplace flue outlet to the ceiling. Add the ceiling thickness, the verti-
cal rise in an attic or second story, and allow for sufficient vent height above the roofline. You may use one or two 90° elbows in this vent configuration. See Vertical Termination Configurations on pages 13 and 14.
Note:
You may use two 45° elbows in place of a 90° elbow. You must follow rise to run ratios when using 45° elbows.
For two-story applications, firestops are re­quired at each floor level. If an offset is needed in the attic, additional pipe and el­bows will be required.
You may use a chase with a vent termination with exposed pipe on the exterior of the house. See Installing Vent System in a Chase, below.
Your Vanguard direct-vent fireplace has been tested for a minimum 3' rise with a maximum 10" wall thickness. The maxi­mum horizontal run is 20' with 8' vertical rise (see Installation for Horizontal Termi- nation, page 8). The maximum vertical run is 30' (see Installation for Vertical Termina- tion, page 12).
It is very important that the venting system maintain its balance between the combus­tion air intake and the flue gas exhaust. Certain limitations apply to vent configura­tions and must be strictly followed.
Installing Vent System in a Chase
A chase is a vertical boxlike structure built to enclose venting that runs along the out­side of a building. A chase is not required for such venting.
NOTICE: Treatment of firestops and construction of the chase may vary from building type to building type. These instructions are not substitutes for the requirements of local building codes. You must follow all local building codes.
Note:
When installing in a chase, you should insulate the chase as you would the outside walls of your home. This is especially im­portant in cold climates. Minimum clear­ance between vent pipes and combustible materials such as insulation is 1".
After framing the chase (see Framing and Finishing on page 4) install the vent system by following the installation instructions.

INSTALLATION FOR HORIZONTAL TERMINATION
1. Determine the route your horizontal venting will take. of the horizontal vent termination on the exterior wall must meet all local and national building codes and must not be easily blocked or obstructed.
WARNING: Do not recess vent
terminal into a wall or siding.
Snorkel terminations are available for terminations requiring a vertical rise on the exterior of the building (see Figures 9 and 10). Snorkel kit SVK is also avail­able (see page 15). Follow the same in­stallation procedures as used for stan­dard horizontal terminations. If install­ing the snorkel termination below grade (basement applications), you must pro­vide proper drainage to prevent water from entering the snorkel termination (see Figure 10). Do not back fill around the snorkel termination.
2. Rigid vent pipes and fittings have spe­cial twist-lock connections. Assemble the desired combination of pipe and el­bows to the appliance adaptor with pipe seams oriented towards the wall or floor.
Twist-lock Procedure: The female ends of the pipes and fittings have four locking lugs (indentations). These lugs will slide straight into matching slots on the male ends of adjacent pipes and fit­tings. (All connections must be sealed with high temperature silicone sealant as specified in the second warning on page 7.) Push the pipe sections together and twist one section clockwise approxi­mately one-quarter turn until the sections are fully locked. See Figure 11, page 9.
Note:
Horizontal runs of vent must be supported every three feet. Use wall straps for this purpose.
Flexible vent pipe must be installed with separation spacer springs every 12". See Figure 11, page 9. All connections must be clamped tightly and sealed with high temperature silicone sealant as specified in the second warning on page 7.

3. Attach vent pipe assembly to the fire­place. Set fireplace in front of it’s perma­nent location to insure minimum clear­ances. See page 10, Figure 16 for mini­mum clearances for vertical on rigid vent pipe, and page 10, Figure 17 on flexible vent pipe. Mark the wall for a 10" square hole (for noncombustible ma­terial such as masonry block or concrete, a 7 1/2" diameter hole is acceptable). See Figure 12. The center of the hole should line up with the center-line of the hori­zontal rigid vent pipe. Cut a 10"x10" (254mm x 254mm) square hole through combustible exterior wall (7 1/2" [190mm] diameter hole if noncombustible). Frame as necessary (see Figure 12).

Position the vent cap in the center of the 7 1/2" or 10" hole on the exterior wall with the arrow on the vent cap pointing up. Insure proper clearance of 1" to combustibles is maintained. At­tach the vent cap with four wood screws supplied (see Figure 13).
Note
: Re­place the wood screws with appropri­ate fasteners for stucco, brick, concrete, or other types of siding.
WARNING: Do not recess vent termination in to any wall. This will cause a fire hazard.
5. For vinyl siding use vinyl siding stand­offs between vent cap and exterior wall. The vinyl siding standoff prevents ex­cessive heat from melting the vinyl sid­ing material. Bolt the vent cap to the standoff. Apply non-hardening mastic around outside edge of the standoff in­stead of the vent cap assembly. Use wood screws provided to attach the standoff. See Figure 14.
6. Slide the wall thimble over the vent pipe before connecting the horizontal run to the vent cap (see Figure 15).
