C. Approved Pipe
This appliance is approved for use with Hearth & Home
Technologies SLP, Simpson Duravent and ICC venting
systems. Refer to Section 11.A for vent component
information and dimensions.
DO NOT mix pipe, ttings or joining methods from different
manufacturers.
The pipe is tested to be run inside an enclosed wall. There
is no requirement for inspection openings at each joint
within the wall.
WARNING! Risk of Fire or Asphyxiation. This appliance
requires a separate vent. DO NOT vent to a pipe serving a
separate solid fuel burning appliance.
DO NOT USE FIELD-FABRICATED VENTING
COMPONENTS.
This product is approved to be vented either horizontally,
through the side wall or vertically through the roof. You may
vent through a Class A or masonry chimney if an approved
adapter is used.
This appliance is a direct vent heater. All combustion air must
come directly from the outside of the building. The vent pipe
for this unit consists of an inner and an outer pipe. The inner
pipe carries the appliance exhaust out of the system, and
the outer pipe brings fresh combustion air into the appliance.
• A round support box/wall thimble or heat shield is
required when the venting passes through a combustible
wall.
• A support box or ceiling restop is required when the
venting passes through a ceiling.
• Roof ashing and a storm collar are required when
venting passes through the roof.
• Follow instructions provided with the venting for
installation of these items.

D. Use of Elbows
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 4.4.
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 in. (216 mm)
horizontal run and 8-1/2 in. (216 mm) vertical run. A length
of straight pipe is allowed between two 45º elbows. See
Figure 4.4.
Figure 4.5 shows the vertical and horizontal offsets for SLP
elbows.

E. 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 11.1 for SLP for information on
effective length of pipe components.
• Horizontal terminations are measured to the outside
mounting surface (ange of termination cap) (see Figure
4.3).
• Vertical terminations are measured to bottom of
termination cap.
• Horizontal pipe installed level with 1/4 inch rise per foot.

G. Vent Diagrams
To replace the rst 90º starter elbow with two 45º elbows,
refer to Figure 4.7. All other 90º elbows can be replaced
with two 45º elbows.
General Rules:
• SUBTRACT 3 ft. from the total H measurement for each
90º elbow installed horizontally.
• SUBTRACT 1 ft. from the total H measurement for each
45º elbow installed horizontally.
• A maximum of three 90º elbows (or six 45º elbows) may
be used in any vent conguration. Some elbows may be
installed horizontally. See specic vent diagrams.
• When penetrating a combustible wall, a wall shield restop
must be installed.
• When penetrating a combustible ceiling, a ceiling restop
must be installed.

Cut and bend flashing as needed
to fit
1. Before cutting any holes, assemble the desired sections
of direct vent pipe to determine the center of the masonry
penetration.
2. Once the center point of the penetration has been
determined, cut a 6 in. (152mm) diameter hole in the
masonry. If the hole is too large, the retro connector
might not mount properly; if the hole is too small, the
appliance might starve for intake air. If there is a frame
wall in front of the masonry wall, cut and frame a 10 in.
(254mm) square opening in the wall (centered around
the 6 in. (152mm) masonry opening). If there is sheet
rock only (no studs) in front of the masonry the 10 in.
(254mm) opening is still needed, but does not need to be
framed. If the hole is framed a wall thimble is required.
This allows the retro connector to mount directly on
the masonry and provide the correct clearances to
combustibles. See Figure 4.23.
Figure 4.24
4. To determine the length of flex needed, measure from
3 in. (76mm) above the top of the flashing down to the
level of the opening. Add the distance from the center
of the chimney out through the wall. Cut a piece of 4
in. (102mm) flex to this length (extended to its nominal
length). Be sure to leave 2-3 in. (51-76mm) of flex above
the existing chimney to allow for connection to the
termination kit.
5. Connect the flex liner to the top adapter using three
sheet metal screws. See Figure 4.19.
6. Feed the flex liner through the flashing into the chimney.
Carefully feed the flex liner down the chimney to the
bottom and out the opening in the masonry wall, forming
an angle to line up the flex liner with the vent opening on
the appliance.
WARNING! Risk of Fire, Explosion or Asphyxiation!
Improper support may allow vent to sag and separate. Use
vent run supports and connect vent sections per installation
instructions. DO NOT allow vent to sag below connection
point to appliance.
7. If additional lengths of flex liner are needed to span the
chimney height, use a flex coupler to connect the pieces
of flex liner together. Connect the flex to the coupler by
using four sheet metal screws for each side. See Figure
4.25.
Figure 4.23
3. Secure the flashing to the top of the masonry chimney
using a bead of non-hardening sealant-adhesive. If the
flashing is larger than the top of the chimney, cut and fold
flashing as needed to fit chimney. See Figure 4.24.

B. Wall Penetration Framing/Firestops
Combustible Wall Penetration
Whenever a combustible wall is penetrated, you must
frame a hole for the wall shield restop(s). The wall shield
restop maintains minimum clearances and prevents cold
air inltration.
• 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 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 7.F. 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 inch greater than the pipe is acceptable.
Whenever a non-combustible wall is penetrated, the wall
shield restop is only required on one side and no heat
shield is necessary.
