What is Combustible?
Materials that can catch re and burn are considered combustible. Any material that
is made of, or faced with, wood, wood pulp, paper, plastic or any other material that
can catch re and burn is considered combustible. Even though these materials may
have been 'ame-proofed', made 're-resistant' or are 're-rated' they are considered
combustible.
The combustibility of a material can be tested per "ASTM E136 Standard Test Method
for Behavior of Materials in a Vertical Tube Furnace at 750 Degrees C". Note that 'reresistant' does NOT mean non-combustible.
Note: If a certain material has a core considered to be non-combustible (in accordance
with ASTM E136) but is faced with a combustible material then the material is
considered to be combustible.
When in doubt, ask for an ASTM E136 compliance statement.
A given material is said to be non-combustible when it cannot catch re and burn.
For example, materials made entirely, or in combinations, of, stone, brick, concrete,
tile, steel, plaster or glass are considered non-combustible.
For the purposes of the installations described in this Manual, those materials that
have passed the ASTM E136 tests are considered to be non-combustible.
As of this writing, the materials listed below are reported by their manufacturers to
be non-combustible (in accordance with ASTM E136):

Clearances
When installing a shelf over the top of the replaces, the
following guidelines must be adhered to:
For Rear Vent applications, the minimum clearance is 1" from
the rear of the replace to a wall, or any combustible materials,
and 9" clearance from the top of the replace to the underside
of any combustible shelf materials.
For Top Vent applications, the minimum clearance is 1" from
the rear of the replace to a wall, or any combustible materials,
and 17½" to the underside of any combustible shelf materials.
Proper clearance must still be maintained around the vent
pipes. See Section 3-2-2.

Section 3: Venting
European Home supplies a variety of direct venting and
termination options. The direct vent termination location
MUST be selected such that it is the highest point in the
venting assembly. It should also be selected such that it
provides the shortest vent run possible. Should it be impossible
to ensure that the termination is the highest point or to meet the
venting guidelines laid out below please contact your European
Home dealer to discuss power venting options.
NOTES FOR PLANNING THE VENTING:
Venting can originate from the unit through the top or through
the rear.
Venting can terminate through the roof or through an exterior
wall.
Refer to Appendix A - Termination Locations to ensure the
planned termination location is acceptable.
Once the termination location has been established, refer to
the appropriate section below for installation details.
All replaces shipped from the factory are top vent.
See Section 3-1 for converting the unit from top vent to rear vent.

the included hardware, as illustrated Figure 8.

Use the following instructions to convert a DV 38 for rear vent
use:
1. Remove the rear ue cover and gasket (5" and 8") on the
ue outlet, as shown in Figure 7.
2. Next, remove the top ue collars (5" and 8") on the ue
outlet, as shown in Figure 7.
3. Install the (removed) rear ue cover and gasket material,
to the top vent outlet. Fasten the cover with included
hardware, as illustrated Figure 8.

Section 3-2: INSTALLING A ROOF MOUNTED DIRECT
VENT TERMINATION (PVTK-1)
This section applies to installations where the direct vent
termination will be roof mounted.
Section 3-2-1: VENTING LAYOUT
Selection of components and details of venting layout must adhere to
the following:
• The maximum termination point is 32’ above the replace
NOTE: If the maximum termination height is used, the
ame pattern may be aected.
• The vertical termination must be a minimum 2’ higher
than where the termination exits the roong materials,
(asphalt shingles, cedar shakes, etc). This distance should
be measured from the high side of the roof slope where
the ue ashing intersects the roong materials. See
Figures 11 to 11c .
• Termination location must be a minimum 6’ from a
mechanical air inlet.
• Termination location must be a minimum 18” from a
parapet wall.
• A maximum of two osets (each oset is made up of
2-90° bends) may be made.
• Install a restop at any location where venting passes
through combustible materials and construction.
• Utilize support straps, or support plates, and rings (as
required) to meet acceptable building practices.
• Install all roof ashing and storm collars as shown.

Select from the following components and associated European
Home part numbers for installation of a roof mounted
termination. Use only European Home Vent Components. Use
of non-European Home parts will void the warranty and may
impede operation of the replace.
Connection and installation of the vent components should
adhere to the following guidelines:
• Use any combination of rigid and ex pipe as required.
• Flex sections may be stretched up to 50% of their total
length (e.g. a 24” section may be stretched to 36”).
• Connect all vent sections using a minimum of three
sheet metal screws on the outer pipe ue.
• Ensure the pipe ends male to female slide in a minimum
of 1½” of overlap.
• Ensure all runs are supported with a minimum of 3
supports per 10’ of venting.
• When hanging/supporting venting, ensure that
1” clearance is maintained on sides and bottom of
vent runs and 2” above horizontal vent runs to any
combustible material.
• Ensure when cutting sections of rigid pipe to maintain
integrity of internal supports.
• Place the springs, supplied with the pipe kit, between
the outer and inner pipes to keep the pipes separate
and avoid any possible hot spots.
• European Home recommends the use of a ex section
for the nal pipe connected directly to the replace
oering greater exibility of installation and absorption
of movement.
• When penetrating a combustible ceiling, a ceiling
restop must be used.
• European Home recommends that all exterior corners
and joints be sealed with exterior caulking however
we encourage you to consult your Building Envelope
Engineer or Waterproong Consultant for further
recommendations.
