LOCATION
In selecting the location, the aesthetic and
functional use of the appliance are primary
concerns. However, vent system routing to
the exterior and access to the fuel supply are
also important. Consideration should be given
to traffic ways, furniture, draperies, etc., due
to elevated surface temperatures (
The location should also be free of electrical,
plumbing or other heating/air conditioning
ducting.
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.

Step 3. INSTALL THE VENT SYSTEM
General Information
These instructions should be used as a guideline and do not supersede local codes in any
way. Install vent according to local codes,
these instructions, the current National Fuel
Gas Code (ANSI-Z223.1) in the USA or the
current standards of CAN/CGA-B149.1 and B149.2 in Canada.
These fireplaces are designed, tested and
listed for operation and installation with,
and only with, Secure Vent™ (SV 4.5)
Direct Vent System Components, Secure
Flex™ Flexible Vent Components manufactured by Security Chimneys International. These approved vent system components are labeled for identification.
DO NOT use any other manufacturer's
vent components with these appliances. These fireplaces must be vented
directly to the outside.
The vent system may not service multiple
appliances, and must never be connected to a
flue serving a solid fuel burning appliance. The
vent pipe is tested to be run inside an enclosing wall (such as a chase). There is no requirement for inspection openings in the enclosing
wall at any of the joints in the vent pipe.
Preparing the Appliance Top Vent Outlet in
All Venting Applications Using the Appliance
Top Vent Outlet
A vent restrictor may be needed with this
appliance. Install the vent restrictor (provided)
in the appliance top flue outlet as shown in
Figure 12
. It is held in place by friction, only.
VENT RESTRICTOR INSTALLATION
(TOP VENT)
In all venting applications using the top vent of
the appliance, a vent restrictor may be
needed. Install the vent restrictor in the top
vent of the appliance outlet.
If needed, install the restrictor orientated as
shown, either from inside or outside the unit,
in the inner fireplace collar.

Select Venting System - Horizontal or Vertical
With the appliance secured in framing, determine vent routing and identify the exterior
termination location. The following sections
describe vertical (roof) and horizontal (exterior
wall) vent applications. Refer to the section
relating to your installation. A list of approved
venting components is shown in the tables on
pages 24 and 25.
VERTICAL TERMINATION SYSTEMS (ROOF)
Figures 13, and Figures 23 through 27 on
pages 12 to 13
and their associated
Vertical Vent Tables illustrate the various vertical 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 Vertical
Vent Table summarizes each system’s 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 these vertical vent systems
terminate through the roof. The minimum
vent height above the roof and/or adjacent
walls is specified in ANSI Z223.1-(latest edition) (In Canada, the current CAN-1 B149
installation code) by major building codes.
Always consult your local codes for specific
requirements. A general guide to follow is the
Gas Vent Rule (refer to
Figure 4
on page 5).
Vertical (Straight) Installation
Determine the number of straight vent 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. Refer to
the Vent Section Length Chart.
