PLANNING YOUR INSTALLATION
QUESTIONS TO ASK THE LOCAL BUILDING OFFICIAL
Correct installation is critical and imperative for reducing fire
hazards and perilous conditions that can arise when gas appliances function improperly. The appliance must be installed per
manufacturers’ instructions.
Gas appliance equipment and installations must conform to
appropriate local codes and applicable state and federal requirements. Familiarity with these requirements before installation is essential. Important considerations to discuss with
local building officials include:
1. Applicable codes (i.e. Uniform Mechanical Code, State or
Regional Gas Codes, National Fuel Gas Code)?
2. Local amendments?
3. Recognized testing lab: CSA / AGA.
4. Is a permit required - cost?
5. In some states or municipalities, a licensed gas fitter or
plumber may be required to install this appliance. Check
with your local building official for requirements in your
area (i.e. Is a license required for installation of gas supply
line)?
6. Maximum amount of gas pipe without a pressure test type of test required?
7. Are below grade penetrations of the gas line allowed?
8. Is concealed gas piping allowed?
9. Specific requirements of concealed fittings?
10. Is rigid pipe to appliance required?
11. Allowed piping materials?
12. Shut-off valve required within 4 feet of the firebox?
13. May the shut-off valve be concealed?
14. Rooms where the installation is not allowed?
In the absence of local codes, installation should conform to
the National Fuel Gas Code, also known at ANSI Z223.1NFPA 54.

When installing this appliance, provide adequate clearances around
air openings and adequate clearances for purposes of servicing and
proper operation.
As determined through the safety certification of this unit, a minimum clearance to combustible materials must be maintained around
specific areas of the gas appliance.
(Refer to Figures 1 through 3)
The clearances listed here are minimum distances and only apply in
the configuration shown. Do not use clearances from one installation configuration with clearances from another to obtain closer
clearances.

⊗ Snorkel Caps: These are elongate vent termination caps, which incorporate the principles of natural draft into a horizontal installation. Two styles
are common, 14” and 36” (Cap height). They enhance draft and relieve backpressure by creating natural draft in the snorkel.
⊕ Horizontal Caps: This 13 ½” square horizontal cap is placed on the outer wall of the dwelling. Not to be within 9” of an air inlet or within 12” of the
ground. It requires a minimum 2’ rise on the interior pipe.
• Vertical Termination Cap: Low profile and high wind caps can only be used on vertical pipe installations.
Direct Vent Retrofit Of Existing Chimney System - An existing Class-A (wood-burning) Metal Chimney or Masonry Chimney can be
converted to a direct vent system. Use one of the following chimney conversion kits listed below. Have the existing chimney system
inspected by a professional prior to the conversion. If using Simpson Dura-Vent brand liner kit, see “IMPORTANT” note at the top of page 8. The chimney conversion should not be applied to the portion of the vent system that is in the room of the appliance. Use only
Co-Axial direct vent pipe (4” inner pipe, 6 5/8” outer pipe as listed on page 8) from the appliance to the retro-connector into converted
flue system. Adhere to all specifications shown on pages 6 and 7 regarding clearances to combustibles, vertical and horizontal vent
length minimums and maximums, etc. Read all instructions in this manual and provided by vent manufacturer with kit carefully before
starting the installation. Failure to follow the instructions may create a fire or other safety hazard, and will void the warranty.
