This kit uses either M&G Duravent direct vent pipe, Secure Vent direct vent pipe, or Selkirk Directtemp vent pipe with a 4” inner pipe and a 6” outer pipe.
Vertical installations must use the optional HRD-850V vertical termination cap. HRD-850V includes
HRD-851V vertical termination box, and HRD-852V vertical termination hardware kit. The vertical
termination box can only be installed on flat surfaces; sloped surfaces require construction of a chase
which provides the minimum interior square opening of 11”x11” (279mm x 279mm) for the venting and
wiring to pass through. Flat roofs may require a chase depending on local codes and roof construction.
(If in doubt check with local inspector)
ALWAYS MAINTAIN 1.5” (38mm) CLEARANCE TO COMBUSTIBLES AROUND VENT PIPE.
The Power Vent termination must be located in accordance with the clearances outlined in the venting
section of this manual on page 3.
For replacement parts, refer to page 9. Replacement parts can be ordered through your authorized
SÓLAS dealer.

VENTING CONFIGURATIONS
Maximum venting – 110ft
plus (6) 90 degree elbows.
Maximum vent length is 110 ft.
plus six 90-degree elbows or
combination of other elbows
equaling 90-degrees, with a
maximum 66ft vertical rise.
Minimum horizontal vent length
is 3 ft. plus one 90-degree elbow.
The vent can be installed with
any combination of rise and run
between the figures including up
to 3 ft. below the unit.
Figure #2
WARNING:
A minimum clearance to combustibles of 1.5” (38mm) is required around the vent pipe at all times.
Failure to maintain this clearance may result in property damage, injury, or death.

HORIZONTAL (SIDE WALL) VENTING
This kit uses either Simpson Duravent GS direct vent pipe, Secure Vent direct vent pipe or Selkirk
Direct-temp vent pipe with a 4" inner pipe and a 6" outer pipe.
1. Locate the power vent termination following
the clearance to combustible table, venting
configuration diagram (Fig. #2 & 3), and
terminal location diagram (Fig. #1).
2. Cut and frame an 11" x 11" opening. The center
of the square hole should line up with the
center
3. Install the M&G Duravent (or equivalent) Wall
thimble, part number 46DVA-WT (not supplied
with kit) in the opening to retain any insulation
in the wall and maintain proper clearances. If
the wall being penetrated is constructed of
noncombustible material only (i.e., Masonry
block or concrete) the wall thimble is not
required and a hole with zero clearance is
acceptable. (6 5/8” hole)
Figure #4
4. Attach the terminal to the outside wall. Ensure that the terminal is the right way up and that only
the outer flanges that are used to secure the terminal to the building are covered by the exterior
wall or siding. (Fig.#4) Note: No other part of the terminal can be recessed into the exterior
wall or siding.
5. Attach the vent adaptor directly to the appliance after the initial 45⁰ elbow before any
horizontal or vertical pipe is added. Tape all exterior seams on the venting system with foil HVAC
tape. Note: The inner pipe does not need to be sealed. (Fig. #5)
6. Connect the high temperature silicone tube to the vacuum pressure tap on the adaptor, secure
with the hose clamp provided and route the tube through the utility access panel back to Power
vent control location. (Fig. #5) Tube may touch unit and be trimmed if required. Connect the
pressure switch tubing to the light grey port on the power vent control. Note: Ensure that there
are no blockages in this tube, as this will cause the control to malfunction. Do not allow tube to
rest on firebox after it is routed.
7. Run the required Simpson Duravent GS / Secure Vent / Selkirk Direct-temp pipe from the adaptor
to the terminal assembly. Assemble as per the vent pipe manufacturer’s instructions.
