FLUEING
INTRODUCTION
The DV Stove Horizontal Flue Kit and the Simpson Dura-Flue Room Sealed System Model DVGS fluing systems, in combination with the
Regency Room Sealed Freestanding Gas Stove,
FG39-NG, and FG39-LPG, have been tested
and listed as direct flue heater systems by
AGA.
These units use the "balanced flue" technology
Co-Axial system. The inner liner flues products
of combustion to the outside while the outer
pipe draws outside combustion air into the
combustion chamber thereby eliminating the
need to use heated room air for combustion and
losing warm room air up the chimney.
Note: These flue pipes must not be con-
nected to any other appliance.
The gas appliance and flue system must be
flueed directly to the outside of the building, and
never be attached to a chimney serving a
separate solid fuel or gas burning appliance.
Each direct flue gas appliance must use it's own
separate flue system. Common flue systems
are prohibited.
IMPORTANT
Read all instructions carefully before starting
the installation. Failure to follow these instructions may create a fire or other safety hazard,
and will void the warranty. Be sure to check the
fluing and clearance to combustible requirements. Consult your local building codes before
beginning installation.
INSTALLATION
PRECAUTIONS
These fluing systems are engineered products
that have been designed and tested for use
with the FG39-NG, and FG39-LPG. The warranty will be voided and serious fire, health or
other safety hazards may result from any of
the following actions:
1) Installation of any damaged Room Sealed
component
2) Unauthorized modification of the Room
Sealed System
3) Installation of any component part not manufactured or approved by Simpson DuraFlue or FPI Fireplace Products International
Ltd.
4) Installation other than as instructed by
Simpson Dura-Flue and FPI Fireplace Products International Ltd.
Warning: Always maintain required
clearances (air spaces) to nearby
combustibles to prevent a fire hazard. Do not fill air spaces with insulation.
Be sure to check the flue termination clearance
requirements from decks, windows, soffits,
gas regulators, air supply inlets and public
walkways as specified in the Exterior Flue
Terminal Locations on page 8 and in your local
building codes.
The location of the termination cap must conform to the requirements in the Exterior Flue
Termination Locations diagram on page 8.

Review the following sequence of instructions which are typical of most installations.
The sequence may vary depending on wall
thickness. Refer to flue location and clear-
ance dimensions on pages 8 to 9.
1) Set the unit in its desired location. Check
to determine if wall studs will be in the way
of the fluing system, adjust location until all
clearances are met and there are no
obstructions.
Note: A 1-1/2"(38mm) clearance around
the outer pipe must be maintained except that only a 1"
(25mm) clearance is needed at
the termination end.
IMPORTANT:
Do not locate termination hood where
excessive snow or ice buildup may occur. Be sure to check flue termination
area after snow falls, and clear to prevent accidental blockage of fluing system. When using snow blowers, make
sure snow is not directed towards flue
termination area.
Note:
a ) Liner sections should be continuous
without any joints or seams.
b) This is an approved system, therefore
components in this system must not be
substituted for any other manufacturer's products.
c) Wall Thimble is required when install-
ing through a combustible wall.
2) Assemble a trial fit to determine the vertical center-line for the flue termination.
a) Cut a 241mm round hole on both the
interior and exterior wall.
b) Attach the 2 ft. (.6m) pipe section to
the flue terminal and slide into position from the exterior. The larger
diameter end of the adjustable
pipe goes to the flue terminal.
c) Install the 90o elbow onto the adjust-
able pipe to determine the vertical
centerline of the starter collar on the
unit.
Note: if the centerline cannot be
met, the adjustable sections will
Minimum Installation Height:

d) Cut the 2 ft. (.6m) section of rigid pipe
to length. Ensure that the pipe length
when cut will seat onto both the starter collar and the 90
section of rigid pipe seats into
o
the 90
elbow. Only cut the un-
crimped side of pipe.
Dismantle all pipe sections including flue
terminal.
3) Attach the 4" (102mm) dia. flex liner to the
flue terminal ensuring that the flex overlaps
the collar of the flue terminal by a minimum
of
1-3/8"(35mm). Use Mill-Pac to seal and
secure with 3 of the #8 x 1/2" (13mm)
screws (stainless steel).

4) Attach the 2 ft. (.6m)pipe section to the flue
terminal using Mill-Pac and/or high temperature silicone and attach with 3 of the #8 x
1/2" (13mm) screws (stainless steel).
Hint: Apply the
sealant (MillPac and/or high
temperature silicone) to the
outer pipe before connecting
the inner pipe.
Note: The pipe seam
should be facing
down.
Note: To make the instal-
lation more aesthetically pleasing,
we recommend
framing out a square that the cap
can be mounted on.
Note: If installing termination on a siding
covered wall, a vinyl siding standoff or furring strips must be used
to ensure that the termination is
not recessed into the siding. For
vinyl siding standoff installation refer to the Dura-Flue Termination
instructions.
5) Slide the partially connected pipe and flue
terminal assembly through the wall (from
the exterior into the interior) and secure the
cap to the exterior wall with 4 of the supplied
screws (#8 x 1-1/2" (38mm) drill point,
stainless steel).
Note: The four screws provided for the
flue cap should be replaced with
appropriate fasteners for stucco,
brick, concrete, or other types of
sidings.
6) A bead of non-hardening mastic should be
run around both the termination and vinyl
siding standoff to prevent water from entering and to make a tight seal between the
cap and the standoff.
7) Stretch the 4" (102mm) dia. flex liner out
fully and get a trial fit of the liner onto the 4"
(102mm) dia. starter collar.
8) Cut the 4" (102mm) dia. flex liner to the
desired size.
Hint: leave an extra 12" to 16" (305mm to
406mm) of length, this will make the final
assembly easier to work with.
9) Secure the 4" (102mm) dia. flex liner to the
4" (102mm) adapter with Mill-Pac and 3 of the
#8 x 1/2" (13mm) screws (stainless steel).
10) Slide the Decorative Wall Cover over the
pipe sections.
11) Slide the 90o elbow (crimp end up) and the
2 ft. (.6m) pipe section (crimp end up) over
the 4" dia. flex liner.
12) Slide the trim collar over the pipe section to
cover the joint.
13) Install the spring spacers onto the pipe
sections.
