These direct vent appliances are uniquely suited for installations requiring a utility shelf posi­tioned directly above the fireplace. Utility shelves like these are commonly used for locating tele­vision sets and decorative plants.
To provide for the lowest possible shelf surface use the alternate rear vent outlet with attached venting routed in a way to minimize obstruc­tions to the use of the space above the appli­ance. Do not insulate the space between the
appliance and the area above it. See
Figure 3
The minimum height from the base of the appliance to the underside of combustible ma­terials used to construct a utility shelf in this fashion is shown in the table in
Figure 3
.
The appliance should be mounted on a fully supported base extending the full width and depth of the unit. The appliance may be located on or near conventional construction materi­als. However, if installed on combustible ma­terials, such as carpeting, vinyl tile, etc., a metal or wood barrier covering the entire bot­tom surface must be used.

Vertical (Offset) Installation
Analyze the vent routing and determine the quantities of vent sections and number of el­bows required. Refer to Vertical Vent Figures and Tables on page 14 and 15 to select the type of vertical installation desired. Vent sections are available in net lengths of 4 ¹⁄₂" (114 mm), 10-1/2" (267 mm), 22-1/2" (572 mm), 34-1/2" (876 mm) and 46-1/2" (1181 mm). Refer to the Vent Section Length Chart on page 11 for an aid in selecting length combinations. Elbows are available in 90° and 45° configurations. Refer to
Figure 20
for the SV4.5E45 and
SV4.5E90 elbow dimensional specifications. Where required, a telescopic vent section (SV4.5LA) may be used to provide the installer with an option in installing in tight and confined spaces or where the vent run made up of fixed length pieces develops a joint in a undesirable location, or will not build up to the required length. The SV4.5LA Telescopic Vent Section has an effective length of from 1-1/2" (38 mm) to 7-1/2" (191 mm). The SV4.5LA is fitted with a locking inclined channel end (identical to a normal vent section component) and a plain end with 3 pilot holes. Slip the plain end over the locking channel end of a standard SV4.5 vent component the required distance and secure with three screws.
Maintain a minimum 1" (25 mm) clearance to combustible materials for all vertical elements. Clearances for all horizontal elements are 3" (76 mm) on top, 1" (25 mm) on sides and 1" (25 mm) on the bottom.
A. Frame ceiling opening - Use a plumb
line from the ceiling above the appliance to locate center of the vertical run. Cut and/or frame an opening, 10-1/2" x 10-1/2" (267mm x 267mm) inside dimensions, about this center mark (

). Push the vent component against the collar until it fully engages, then twist the component clockwise, running the dimples down and along the incline channels until they seat at the end of the channels. The unitized design of the Secure Vent components will engage and seal both the inner and outer pipe without the need for sealant or screws. If desired a #6 x 1/2" screw may be used at the joint, but it is not required as the pipe will securely lock when twisted.
Note: An elbow may also be attached to the appliance collar. Attach in the same manner as you would a vent section.
C. Attach vent components to each other -
Other vent sections may be added to the previ­ously installed section in accordance with the requirements of the vertical vent figures and tables. To add another vent component to a length of vent run, align the dimpled end over the inclined channel end of the previously in­stalled section, adjusting the radial alignment until the four locking dimples are aligned with the inlets of the four incline channels of the previous section.

Push the vent component against the previous section until it fully engages, then twist the component clockwise running the dimples down and along the incline channels until they seat at the end of the channels.This seating position
is indicated by the alignment of the arrow and dimple as shown in
Figure 18.
D. Install firestop/spacer at ceiling - When
using Secure Vent, use SV4.5VF firestop/spacer at ceiling joists; when using Secure Flex, use SF4.5VF firestop/spacer. If there is living space above the ceiling level, the firestop/spacer must be installed on the bottom side of the ceiling. If attic space is above the ceiling, the firestop/ spacer must be installed on the top side of the joist. Route the vent sections through the framed opening and secure the firestop/spacer with 8d nails or other appropriate fasteners at each corner. Remember to maintain 1" (25 mm)
clearance to combustibles, framing members, and attic or ceiling insulation when running vertical chimney sections. Attic insulation shield (96K94) may be used to obtain the required clearances indicated here. See installation accessories table on page 27.
E. Support the vertical vent run sections -
Note - Proper venting support is very impor-
tant. The weight of the vent must not be sup­ported by the fireplace in any degree.
Support the vertical portion of the venting sys­tem every 8 feet (2.4m) above the fireplace vent outlet. One method of support is by utilizing field provided support straps (conventional plumber's tape). Secure the plumber's tape to the framing members with nails or screws. Loop the tape around the vent, securing the ends of the tape to the framing. If desired, sheet metal screws #6 x 1/2" length may be used to secure the support straps to the vent pipe. See
Figure 19.

It is important to maintain the required clear­ances to combustibles: 1" (25 mm) at all sides for all vertical runs; and 3" (76 mm) at the top, 1" (25 mm) at sides, and 1" (25 mm) at the bottom for all horizontal/inclined runs.
H. Frame roof opening - Identify location for
vent at the roof. Cut and/or frame opening per Roof Framing Chart and
Figure 21
.
Figure 22
J. Install the storm collar - Install the storm
collar, supplied with the flashing, over the vent/ flashing joint. See collar screw. Slide collar down until it meets the top of the flashing. Tighten the adjusting screw. Apply non-combustible caulking or mastic around the circumference of the joint to pro­vide a water tight seal.

HORIZONTAL (OUTSIDE WALL) TERMINATION SYSTEM
Figures 30, and Figures 34 to 40 on pages 18
and their associated Horizontal Vent
to 20
Table illustrate the various horizontal venting configurations that are possible for use with these appliances. Secure Vent pipe applica­tions are shown in these figures; Secure Flex pipe may also be used. A Horizontal Vent Table summarizes each systems minimum and maxi­mum vertical and horizontal length values that can be used to design and install the vent components in a variety of applications.
Both of these horizontal vent systems terminate through an outside wall. Building Codes limit or prohibit terminating in specific areas. Refer to
Figure 8
on page 7 for location guidelines.
Secure Vent SV4.5 direct vent system compo-
nents are unitized concentric pipe components featuring positive twist lock connection, (
Figure 17
on page 12). All of the appliances covered in this document are fitted with collars having locking inclined channels. The dimpled end of the vent components fit over the appliance collar to create the positive twist lock connection.
A. Plan the vent run - Analyze the vent routing and determine the types and quantities of sections required 4-1/2" (114 mm), 10-1/2" (267 mm), 22-1/2" (572 mm), 34-1/2" (876 mm) and 46-1/2" (1181 mm) net section lengths are available. Plan the vent lengths so that a joint does not occur at the intersection of ceiling or roof joists. Make allowances for elbows as indicated in
Figure 20 on page 12
.
Maintain a minimum 1" (25 mm) clearance to combustibles on the vertical sections. Clearances for the horizontal runs are; 3" (76 mm) on top, 1" (25 mm) on sides, and 1" (25 mm) at the bottom.
B. Frame exterior wall opening -
Locate the center of the vent outlet on the exterior wall according to the dimensions shown in
Figure 9
on page 8. Cut and/or frame an
opening, 10-1/2" x 12-1/8" (267 mm x 308mm) inside dimensions, about this center.
C. Frame ceiling opening - If the vertical route is to penetrate a ceiling, use plumb line to locate the center above the appliance. Cut and/or frame an opening, 10-1/2" x 10-1/2" (267 mm x 267 mm) inside dimensions, about this center (refer to
Figure 16
on page 11 ).
D. Attach vent components to appliance - To attach
a vent component to the appliance collar, align the dimpled end over the collar, adjusting the radial alignment until the four locking dimples are aligned with the inlets of the four incline channels on the collar (
refer to Figure 17
on page 12).
Push the vent component against the collar until it fully engages, then twist the component clockwise, running the dimples down and along the incline channels until they seat at the end of the channels.

The unitized design of the Secure Vent compo­nents will engage and seal both the inner and outer pipe elements with the same procedure. Sealant and securing screws are not required.
Note: An elbow may also be attached to the appliance collar. Attach in the same manner as you would a vent section.
E. Attach vent components to each other -
Other vent sections may be added to the previ­ously installed section in accordance with the requirements of the vent tables. To add another vent component to a length of vent run, align the dimpled end of the component over the inclined channel end of the previously installed section, adjusting the radial alignment until the four locking dimples are aligned with the inlets of the four incline channels of the previous section. Push the vent component against the previous section until it fully engages, then twist the component clockwise running the dimples down and along the incline channels until they seat at the end of the channels.This seating position is
indicated by the alignment of the arrow and dimple as shown in
F. Install firestop/spacer at ceiling -
When using Secure Vent, use SV4.5VF firestop/ spacer at ceiling joists; when using Secure Flex, use SF4.5VF firestop/spacer. If there is living space above the ceiling level, the firestop/ spacer must be installed on the bottom side of the ceiling. If attic space is above the ceiling, the firestop/ spacer must be installed on the top side of the joist. Route the vent sections through the framed opening and secure the firestop/spacer with 8d nails or other appropri­ate fasteners at each corner.
Remember to maintain 1" (25 mm) clearance to combustibles, framing members, and attic or ceiling insulation when running vertical chimney sections.

G. Support the vertical run sections -
On the vertical run, support the venting sys­tem every 8 feet (2.4m) above the fireplace vent outlet with field provided support straps (Plumber's tape). Attach the straps to the vent pipe and secure to the framing members with nails or screws. See
Figure 19 on page 12.
H. Change vent direction - At transition from or to a horizontal/inclined run, install the SV4.5E45 and SV4.5E90 elbows in the same manner as the straight vent sections. The elbows feature a twist section to allow them to be routed about the center axis of their initial collar section to align with the required direction of the next vent run element. Twist
elbow sections in a clockwise direction only so as to avoid the possiblity of unlocking any of the previously connected vent sec­tions. See
Figure 20 on page 13
I. Continue installation of horizontal/inclined sections - Continue with the installation of the
straight vent sections in horizontal/inclined run as described in Step E. Install support straps every 5 ft. (1.52 m) along horizontal/ inclined vent runs using conventional plumbers tape. See
Figure 30
important that the horizontal/inclined run be maintained in a straight (no dips) and rec­ommended to be in a slightly elevated plane, in a direction away from the fireplace of ¹⁄₄"
rise per foot (20 mm per meter) which is ideal, though rise per foot run ratios that are smaller are acceptable all the way down to at or near level. Use a carpenters level to measure from a constant surface and adjust the support straps as necessary.
It is important to maintain the required clear­ances to combustibles: 1" (25 mm) at all sides for all vertical runs; and 3" (76 mm) at the top, 1" (25 mm) at sides, and 1" (25 mm) at the bottom for all horizontal/inclined runs
.
, it is very
J. Assemble vent run to exterior wall - If not
previously measured, locate the center of the vent at the exterior wall. Prepare an opening as described in Step B. Assemble the vent system to point where the terminus of the last section is within 7 in. (178 mm) to 11-1/4 in. (286 mm) inboard of the exterior surface to which the SV4.5 HT termination is to be attached, see
Figure 32
If the terminus of the last section is not within this distance, use the telescopic vent section SV4.5LA, as the last vent section. For wall thick­nesses greater than that shown in refer to
Table 3 on page 18
. This table lists the
Figure 32
additional venting components needed (in addi­tion to the termination and adapter) for a particu­lar range of wall thicknesses.
K. Attach termination adapter - Attach the adapter (adapter - SV4.5RCH - provided with the termination) to the vent section or tele­scoping vent section), elbow or appliance col­lar as shown in
Figure 31
in the same manner
as any SV4.5 vent component (refer to Step E). L. Install Firestop/Spacer at exterior wall -
When using the square termination, install SV4.5HF (Secure Vent), SF4.5HF (Secure Flex) Firestop/Spacer over the opening at the exte­rior side of the framing, long side up, with the 3 inch spacer clearance at the top as shown in
Figure 31
, and nail into place.
(The Firestop/Spacer may also be installed over the opening at the interior side of the framing.)
M. Install the desired termination -
1. Install the square termination (SV4.5HT-
2)- For the last step , from outside the
exterior wall, slide the collars of the termina­tion onto the adapter (the outer over the outer and the inner inside the inner) until the termi­nation seats against the exterior wall surface to which it will be attached. Orient the hous­ing of the termination with the arrow pointed upwards. Secure the termination to the exte­rior wall. The horizontal termination must
not be recessed into the exterior wall or siding by more than the 1-1/4" (32 mm) as
shown in
Figure 32

Horizontal terminations have been designed to perform in a wide range of weather conditions. Our terminations meet or exceed industry standards.
When selecting the locations of your horizontal terminations, do not place the termination where water from eaves and adjoining rooflines may create a heavy flow of cascading water onto the termination cap. If the cap must be placed where the possibility of cascading water exists, it is the responsibility of the builder to direct the water away from the termination cap by using gutters or other means.
Take care to carefully follow the installation instructions for the termination, including the use of silicone caulking where required.

VERTICAL OR HORIZONTAL VENTING USING
SECURE FLEX
KITS AND COMPONENTS
Secure Flex venting kits and components may
be used in any venting application where rigid Secure Vent (SV4.5) direct vent components can be used. All restrictions, clearances and allowances that pertain to the rigid piping apply to the flexible venting.
Secure Flex
kits may not be modified; also, under no circumstances may separate sections of flex pipe be joined together. Secure Flex kits may be added to the
end of a vent run made up of rigid Secure Vent (SV4.5) vent sections provided that doing so does not violate any of the venting length, height, routing, horizontal to vertical ratio re­quirements or clearance considerations de­tailed in this manual.
Secure Flex kits come with an included adapter that can be fitted to the appliance collar or the inclined channel end of the last Secure Vent (SV4.5) vent section in a rigid system in the exact same fashion as any other Secure Vent section. Align the dimpled end of the adapter over the previously installed section or appli­ance collar, adjusting the radial alignment until the four locking dimples of the adapter are aligned with the inlets of the four incline chan­nels of the last vent section or collar. Push on the adapter until it fully engages, then twist the adapter clockwise running the dimples down and along the incline channels until they seat at the end of the channels.
Attach the flexible vent to the adapter as follows
(see Figure 40)
:
A. Install the Inner Flex Pipe -
1. Install the small gear clamp loosely around the
inner flexible vent pipe, push it back out of the way.
2. Apply a bead of Mill-Pac Black (700°F) high temperature sealant - Catalog No. 10K81) to the inner adapter collar, approxi-
mately ¹⁄₂ inch from the end.
3. Pull and extend the inner flexible vent pipe.
4. Slide the inner flex pipe over the adapter
collar. Ensure the flexible vent pipe completely engages the adapter collar to a distance of 1³⁄₄ inches from the end, and that it is free from damage or tears.
5. Slide the gear clamp down and tighten it fully to secure the flexible vent to the adapter inner collar approximately ³⁄₄ inch from the end of the flex.
6. Install three screws 120 degrees apart through the flexible vent pipe and into the adapter collar just below the gear clamp to provide additional security to the connection.
B. Install the Outer Flex Pipe -
1. Install the large gear clamp loosely around
the outer flexible vent pipe, push it back out of the way.
NOTE: OUTER PIPE IS PULLED AWAY TO SHOW THE DETAIL OF THE INNER PIPE
Apply ONLY MIL-PAC BLACK HIGH TEMPERATURE SEALANT (Catalog No. 10K81) to the outside surface of both collars of the adapter (be especially careful to fill the grooves of the outer collar to be covered by the flexible pipe) and slide flexible pipe over inner and outer adapter collars.

the outer adapter collar; to the grooves of the collar which extend approximately 1 inch from the end and to the flat surface, approximately 1³⁄₈ inches from the end.
3. Pull and extend the outer flexible vent pipe.
4. Slide the outer flex pipe over the adapter
collar. Ensure the flexible vent pipe completely engages the adapter collar to a distance of 1³⁄₄ inches from the end, and that it is free from damage or tears.
5. Slide the gear clamp down and tighten it fully to secure the flexible vent to the adapter outer collar approximately ³⁄₄ inch from the end of the flex.
6. Install three screws 120 degrees apart through the flexible vent pipe and into the adapter collar just below the gear clamp to provide additional security to the connection.
C. Route Flex Vent -
Ensure that the flex vent is properly routed to provide the required clearance. Do Not allow the flexible vent to bend in a radius tighter than 5" (127 mm). Refer to horizontal sections of flex with metal straps at 2 foot (0.61 m) intervals.
D. Install Firestop/Spacers at ceilings and walls -
When Secure Flex penetrates a wall or ceiling, a firestop/spacer is required: use the SF4.5 VF firestop/spacer for ceilings and the SF4.5 HF firestop/spacer for walls.

Step 6. CONNECTING GAS LINE
Make gas line connections. All codes require a shut-off valve mounted in the supply line.
illustrates two methods for connecting
ure 45
the gas supply. The flex-line method is accept­able in the U.S., however, Canadian require­ments vary depending on locality. Installation must be in compliance with local codes.
These appliances are equipped with a gas flex line for use (where permitted) in connecting the unit to the gas line. A gas flex line is provided to aid in attaching the direct vent appliance to the gas supply. The gas flex line can only be used where local codes permit. See for flex line description. The flex line is rated for both natural and propane gas. A manual shut off valve is also provided with the flex line.
The gas control valve is located in the lower control compartment.
To access the valve open the lower control compartment door (
see Figure 46
ing in the right top corner of the door. (The door is hinged at the bottom.) Remove the bottom compartment door by sliding the hinge pin, located at the doors left side, to the right until it disengages from the left corner post hole. Pull the door diagonally to the left, away from the fireplace.
Remove the modesty panel. To remove the modesty panel, slide the panel forward until it contacts the cabinet bottom panel, then lift straight up and tilt forward.
Remove the modesty panel carefully, so that none of the wires become loose or disconnected.

The millivolt control valve has a 3/8" (10 mm) NPT thread inlet port. The electronic control valve has a 1/2" (13 mm) NPT thread inlet port and is fitted with a 1/2" x 3/8" (13 mm x 10 mm) NPT fitting.
Secure all joints tightly using appropriate tools and sealing compounds (ensure pro­pane resistant compounds are used in pro­pane applications).
Turn on gas supply and test for gas leaks, using a gas leak test solution (also referred to as bubble leak solution).
Note: Using a soapy water solution (50% dish soap, 50% water) is an effective leak test solution but it is not recommended, because the soap residue that is left on the pipes/ fittings can result in corrosion over time. Never
use an open flame to check for leaks.

Step 7. INSTALLING CERAMIC EMBER PANEL, LOGS AND GLOWING EMBERS
The logs are packaged in a carton located within the firebox. One plastic bag of glow­ing embers is located in the bottom com­partment. Refer to the Log Set Placement Supplement for detailed placement instruc­tions for the ceramic ember panel, logs and glowing embers.
Step 8. CHECKING APPLIANCE OPERATION
With gas line installed run initial system check­out before closing up the front of the unit. Follow the pilot lighting instructions provided in the Homeowner's Care and Operation In­structions. For piezo ignitor location see
ure 46 on page 23
(millivolt appliances only).
Note: Lighting Instructions are also found on the literature tag tied to the gas piping next to the gas valve. To access the tag, open the lower control compartment door (Figure 46 on page 23 ) by pushing in simultaneously the left and right top corners of the door. (The door is hinged at the bottom.) Remove the bottom compartment door by sliding the hinge pin, located at the doors left side, to the right until it disengages from the left corner post hole. Remove the modesty panel. To remove the modesty panel, slide the panel forward until it contacts the cabinet bottom panel, then lift straight up and tilt forward. Remove the modesty panel carefully, so that none of the wires become loose or disconnected.
When first lighting the appliance, it will take a few minutes for the line to purge itself of air. Once purging is complete, the pilot and burner will light and operate as indicated in the instruction manual. Subsequent lighting of the appliance will not require such purg­ing. Inspect the pilot flame (remove logs, if necessary, handling carefully).
Millivolt Appliance Checkout
The pilot flame should be steady, not lifting or floating. Flame should be blue in color with traces of orange at the outer edge.
The top 3/8" (10 mm) at the pilot generator (thermopile) and the top 1/8" min (tip) of the quick drop out thermocouple should be en­gulfed in the pilot flame.
Fig-
The flame should project 1" (25 mm) beyond the hood at all three ports
(Figure 47).
Re-
place logs if removed for pilot inspection. To light the burner; turn “ON” the remote wall
switch and rotate the gas valve control knob counterclockwise to the “ON” position (“ON” will be at the bottom side of the valve).

Step 10. BURNER ADJUSTMENTS
Flame Appearance and sooting
Proper flame appearance is a matter of taste. Generally, most people prefer the warm glow of a yellow to orange flame. Appliances operated with air shutter openings that are too large will exhibit flames that are blue and transparent. These weak, blue and transparent flames are termed anemic. If the air shutter opening is too small sooting may develop.
Sooting is indicated by black puffs developing at the tips of very long orange flames. Sooting results in black deposits forming on the logs, appliance inside surfaces and on exterior sur­faces adjacent to the vent termination. Sooting is caused by incomplete combustion in the flames and lack of combustion air entering the air shutter opening. To achieve a warm yellow to orange flame with an orange body that does not soot, the shutter opening must be adjusted between these two extremes.
No smoke or soot should be present. Reposi­tion the logs if flames impinge on any of them.
If the logs are properly positioned and sooting conditions exist, the air shutter opening on the main burner tube should be adjusted. Normally, the more offsets in the vent system, the greater the need for the air shutter to be opened further.
Burner Adjustment
WARNING: AIR SHUTTER ADJUST­MENT SHOULD ONLY BE PER­FORMED BY A QUALIFIED PROFES­SIONAL SERVICE TECHNICIAN.
IMPORTANT: ENSURE THAT THE FRONT GLASS PANEL IS IN PLACE AND SEALED DURING ADJUSTMENT.
CAUTION: THE AIR SHUTTER DOOR AND NEARBY APPLIANCE SURFACES ARE HOT. EXERCISE CAUTION TO AVOID INJURY WHILE ADJUSTING FLAME APPEARANCE.
To adjust the flame, rotate the adjustment rod toward the back or toward the front of the fire­place (rod located in the lower control area). Position the air shutter to the factory setting as shown in the table in
Figure 50
to operate for at least 15 minutes.
. Allow the burner
Observe the flame continuously. If it appears weak or sooty as previously described, adjust the air shutter by pushing or pulling on the adjust­ment rod until the flame appearance is as de­sired. The adjustment rod and associated ad­justable air shutter is patented technology. Flame adjustments can be made quickly and accurately to taste without the need of disas­sembling the appliance and waiting for 30 minutes after each adjustment.
Propane models may exhibit a flame pattern that may candle or appear stringy. If this is problematic or persists as the appliance is continually operated, adjust the air shutter closed as described in the previous paragraphs. Operate the appliance for a period of time as the effect diminishes, ensuring that the appliance does not develop sooty flames. When satisfied that the appliance operates properly, proceed to finish the installation.

A hearth extension is not required with this appliance. If a hearth extension is used, do not block the lower control compartment door. Any hearth extension used is for appearance only and does not have to conform to standard hearth extension installation requirements.
Note: Combustible wall finish materials and/or surround materials must not be allowed to encroach the area defined by the appliance front face (black sheet metal). Never allow combustible materials to be positioned in front of or overlapping the appliance front face. See Figures 51 and 52 on page 25.
Non-combustible materials, such as surrounds and other appliance trim, may be installed on the appliance front face with these exceptions: they must not cover any portion of the glass or louvers; they may cover any portion of the top radiant panel or the air gaps surrounding the top radiant panel up to the installed hood.
Vertical installation clearances to combustible mantels vary according to the depth of the mantel. See
Figure 53
. Mantels constructed of non-
combustible materials may be installed at any height above the appliance opening; however, do not allow anything to hang below the hood.
Combustible materials may project beyond the sides of the fireplace opening as long as they are kept within the shaded areas illustrated in

COLD CLIMATE INSULATION
For cold climate installations, seal all cracks around your appliance with noncombustible material and wherever cold air could enter the room. It is especially important to insulate outside chase cavity between studs and under floor on which appliance rests, if floor is above ground level. Gas line holes and other openings should be caulked or stuffed with unfaced fiberglass insulation. In cold climates, if the fireplace is being installed on a cement slab, a sheet of plywood or other raised platform can be placed underneath to prevent conducting cold up into the room. It also helps to sheetrock inside surfaces and tape for maximum air tightness and caulk firestops.
