• Installation MUST comply with local, regional, state and
national codes and regulations.
• Consult local building, fi re offi cials or authorities having jurisdic-
tion about restrictions, installation inspection, and permits.
When planning an appliance installation, it’s necessary to
determine the following information before installing:
• Where the appliance is to be installed.
• The vent system confi guration to be used.
• Gas supply piping.
• Electrical wiring.
• Framing and fi nishing details.
• Whether optional accessories—devices such as a wall
switch, or remote control—are desired.
WARNING
Keep appliance dry.
• Mold or rust may cause odors.
• Water may damage controls.
B. Tools and Supplies Needed
Before beginning the installation be sure that the following
tools and building supplies are available.
C. Inspect Appliance and Components
WARNING

A chase is a vertical boxlike structure built to enclose the
gas appliance and/or its vent system. Vertical vents that
run on the outside of a building may be, but are not required to be, installed inside a chase.
Construction of the chase may vary with the type of building. These instructions are not substitutes for the requirements of local building codes. Local building codes MUST
be checked.
Chases should be constructed in the manner of all outside walls of the home to prevent cold air drafting problems. The chase should not break the outside building
envelope in any manner.
Walls, ceiling, base plate and cantilever fl oor of the chase
should be insulated. Vapor and air infi ltration barriers
should be installed in the chase as per regional codes for
the rest of the home. Additionally, in regions where cold
air infi ltration may be an issue, the inside surfaces may be
sheetrocked and taped for maximum air tightness.
To further prevent drafts, the wall shield and ceiling
fi restops should be caulked with high temperature caulk
to seal gaps. Gas line holes and other openings should
be caulked with high temp caulk or stuffed with unfaced
insulation. If the appliance is being installed on a cement
slab, a layer of plywood may be placed underneath to
prevent conducting cold up into the room.

Fire Hazard.
Explosion Risk.
Asphyxiation Risk.
Do NOT connect this gas appliance to a chimney
fl ue serving a separate solid-fuel or gas burning
appliance.
• Vent this appliance directly outside.
• Use separate vent system for this appliance.
May impair safe operation of this appliance or
other appliances connected to the fl ue.
B. Use of Elbows
CAUTION
ALL vent confi guration specifi cations MUST be followed.
• This product is tested and listed to these specifi cations.
• Appliance performance will suffer if specifi cations are not
followed.
Diagonal runs have both vertical and horizontal vent aspects when calculating the effects. Use the rise for the
vertical aspect and the run for the horizontal aspect (see
Figure 5.1).
Two 45º elbows may be used in place of one 90º elbow . On
45º runs, one foot of diagonal is equal to 8-1/2 (216 mm)
inches horizontal run and 8-1/2 (216 mm) inches vertical
run. A length of straight pipe is allowed between two 45º
elbows (see Figure 5.1).
Horizontal
Figure 5.1
C. Measuring Standards
Vertical and horizontal measurements listed in the vent
diagrams were made using the following standards.
• Pipe measurements are shown using the effective length
of pipe (see Figure 5.2).
• Horizontal terminations are measured to the outside
mounting surface (fl ange of termination cap) (see Figure
4.1).
• Vertical terminations are measured to bottom of termination cap.
Note: Depending on the vent run
an exhaust baffl e may be required
to ensure best fl ame appearance.
See Section 7.B for baffl e installa-
tion instructions.

Figure 5.6
Flex Vent
The fl ex vent must be supported with the spacing between
support intervals not exceeding 4 feet, with no more than
½ inch sag between supports.
A support is required at each change in venting direction,
and in any location where it is necessary to maintain the
necessary clearance to combustibles. A simple “up and
out” installation requires only enough support to maintain
the necessary clearance to combustibles. However, the
vent attachment point and the fi restop location are con-
sidered to be supports.
Fire Risk.
Explosion Risk.
Maintain vent clearance to combustibles as
specifi ed.
• Do not pack air space with insulation or
other materials.
Failure to keep insulation or other materials
away from vent pipe may cause fi re.
Note: Heat shields MUST overlap by a minimum of 1-1/2 in. (38 mm).
• SLP heat shield - designed to be used on a wall 4-3/8 in. to 7-5/8
in. (111 mm to 194 mm thick).
• If wall thickness is less than 4-3/8 the existing heat shields must be
field trimmed. If wall thickness is greater than 7-5/8 in. a DVPHSM-B will be required.

B. Wall Penetration Framing
Combustible Wall Penetration
Whenever a combustible wall is penetrated, you must
frame a hole for the wall shield fi restop. The wall shield fi restop maintains minimum clearances and prevents cold
air infi ltration.
• The opening must be framed on all four sides using the
same size framing materials as those used in the wall
construction.
• SLP pipe - A wall shield fi restop must be placed on each
side of an interior wall. A minimum 1-1/2 in. (38 mm)
overlap of attached heat shields must be maintained.
• See Section 8.L. for information for regarding the installation of a horizontal termination cap.
Non-Combustible Wall Penetration
If the hole being penetrated is surrounded by noncombustible materials such as concrete, a hole with diameter one
in. greater than the pipe is acceptable.
Whenever a non-combustible wall is penetrated, the wall
shield fi restop is only required on one side and no heat
shield is necessary.
