1.0 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
When planning a heater installation, it’s necessary
to determine:
• Where the unit is to be installed.
• The vent system configuration to be used.
• Gas supply piping.
• Electrical wiring.
• Framing and finishing details.
14-1/4”
(361mm)
9”
(228mm)
• Whether optional accessories—devices such as a
fan, wall switch, or remote control—are desired.
If the heater is to be installed on carpeting or tile, or on
any combustible material other than wood flooring, the
heater should be installed on a metal or wood panel
that extends the full width and depth of the heater.

1.1 Locating the Heater
The diagram (See figure 2) shows space and clearance
requirements for locating a heater within a room.
Clearance Requirements
The top, back, and sides of the heater are defined by
stand-offs.
The minimum clearance to a perpendicular wall
extending past the face of the heater is one inch (25
mm).
1”MIN. (25mm)

D
For 6000 Series Models, the back of the heater may
be recessed 21-1/2 inches (546 mm) into combustible
construction.

For minimum clearances, see the direct vent termination
clearance diagrams on page 7.
1.2 Framing the Heater
Framing can be built before or after the heater is set in
place. Framing should be positioned to accommodate
wall coverings and heater facing material. The diagram
below shows framing reference dimensions.
CAUTION: MEASURE HEATER DIMENSIONS AND
VERIFY FRAMING METHODS AND WALL COVERING DETAILS, BEFORE FRAMING CONSTRUCTION
BEGINS.
The framing
headers may rest
on the heater
stand-offs.
Framing should be constructed of
2 X 4 lumber or heavier.

1.3 FLUE SYSTEM APPROVALS AND
INST A LL ATIONS
This model is approved to use D-Series flue pipe components. A DVK-01DA or DVK-01TRD Termination Cap
must be used to terminate vent systems in a horizontal
position. A DVK-TVCD vertical Termination Cap must be
used to terminate vent systems in a vertical position.
Figures 5 through 14 show the flue systems approved
for use with these models. Approved flue system components are labeled for identification.NO OTHER FLUESYSTEMS OR COMPONENTS MAY B E USE D. Detailed
installation instructions are included with each flue termination kit and should be used in conjunction with this
manual.

SEPARATE FLUE SYSTEM-COMMON FLUE SYSTEMS ARE PROHIBITED.
CAUTION: UNDER NO CONDITION SHOULD COMBUSTIBLE MAT ERIAL BE CLOSER THAN 3 INCHES
(2 1/2 INCHES AT WALL FIRESTOPS) FROM THE
TOP OF THE 8 5/8-INCH PIPE OR 1-INCH TO THE
SIDESAND THE BOTTOM FOR HORIZONTAL SECTIONS OF THIS FLUE SYSTEM. VERTICAL SECTIONS
OF THIS SYSTEM REQUIRE A MINIMUM OF 1-INCH
CLEARANCE TO COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS ALL
AROUND THE 8 5/8 - INCH PIPE.
For alternative installations, other than depicted, contact your dealer for further information.
Refer to Figure 4 for required clearances to flue terminals.
STRAIGHT UP VERTICAL FLUE SYSTEM

for use on this model.
Figures 7 through 14 and their corresponding tables
show examples of vent configurations using elbows.
The relationships of vertical rise to horizontal run in
vent configurations using elbows MUST be strictly adhered to.
NOTE:TWO 45-DEGREE ELBOWS MAY BE USED
IN PLACE OF ONE 90 -DEGREE ELBOW.
CAUTION: DO NOT INSTA LL A 45-DEGREE ELBOW
DIRECTLYTO THE HEATER FOR A CORNER INSTALLATION. USE TWO 90-DEGREE ELBOWS.
