DETAILED INSTALLATION STEPS
Step 1. FRAMING
Frame these appliances as illustrated in Figure
8 on Page 12, unless the appliance is to be
installed in a corner. See Figure 9 on Page 13
for corner framing installations. All framing
details must allow for a minimum clearance
to combustible framing members as shown in
Table 5 on Page 10.
If the appliance is to be elevated above floor
level, a solid continuous platform must be
constructed below the appliance.
Headers may be in direct contact with the appliance top spacers but must not be supported
by them or notched to fit around them.
The fireplace should be secured to the side framing members using the unit nailing flanges - one
top and bottom on each side of the fireplace front
(see Figure 7). Use 8d nails or their equivalent.
Use Top Flange For
1/2” Thick Drywall
Front Of

Figure 9 - Corner Framing with Power Vent Termination
Step 2. ROUTING GAS LINE
Route a 1/2" (13 mm) gas line along the inside
of the right side framing as shown in Figure
10. Gas lines must be routed, constructed and
made of materials that are in strict accordance
with local codes and regulations.
All appliances are factory-equipped with a flexible gas line connector and 1/2" shutoff valve.
(see Step 6 on Page 23).
Figure 10 - Right-Front Corner of
Fireplace Framing
Proper Sizing of Gas Line
Properly size and route the gas supply line from
the supply regulator to the area where the appliance is to be installed per requirements outlined
in the (USA) National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI
Z223.1/NFPA 54 - latest edition, or (Canada)
CAN/CGA-B149.1 - latest edition.
Gas lines must be routed, constructed and made
of materials that are in strict accordance with
local codes and regulations. We recommend
hiring a qualified plumber or gas fitter to correctly size and route the gas supply line to the
appliance. Installing a gas supply line from the
fuel supply to the appliance involves numerous
considerations of materials, protection, sizing,
locations, controls, pressure, sediment, and
more. Only a qualified installer should attempt
sizing or installing gas pipe.
NOTES:
• All appliances are factory-equipped with a
flexible gas line connector and 1/2" shutoff
valve (see Figure 30 on Page 23).
• See Massachusetts Requirements on Page 6 for additional requirements for installations
in the state of Massachusetts in the USA.
• The gas supply line should Not be connected
to the appliance until Step 6 (Page 23).
• A pipe joint compound rated for gas should
be used on the threaded joints. Be very careful
that the pipe compound does not get inside
the pipe.
• Installing a sediment trap in the supply
line as close as possible to the appliance is
recommended.
• Check with local building official for local
code requirements.
Never use galvanized or plastic pipe. Refer to
Table 6 for proper sizing of the gas supply line,
if black iron pipe is being used.

General Information
These instructions should be used as a guideline and do not supersede local codes in any
way. Install venting according to local codes,
these instructions, and the (USA) National
Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 - latest
edition, or (Canada) CAN/CGA-B149.1 - latest
edition.
These fireplaces are designed, tested and
listed for operation and installation only
with Secure Vent® (SV4.5) and Secure Flex®
Direct-Vent System 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.
Ensure clearances are in accordance with
local installation codes and the requirements
of the gas supplier.
Dégagement conforme aux codes
d'installation locaux et aux exigences du
foumisseunde gaz.
Use only approved venting components. See
Approved Vent Components on Page 4.
These fireplaces must be vented directly
to the outside.
Power Vent Components
Locate the fireplace as instructed in this manual. Make the following modifications to add the components used with the Power Vent Kit. This kit may only be used in conjunction with Direct-Vent
series electronic versions of Innovative Hearth Products Fireplaces. This installation must conform
with local codes, or, in the absence of local codes, with the (USA) National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI
Z223.1/NFPA 54 - latest edition, or (Canada) CAN/CGA-B149.1 - latest edition.
CAUTION: This power vent kit cannot be used with millivolt appliances. Use the kit only with
the electronically controlled fireplaces listed for its use as shown in this document.
The vent system may not service multiple
appliances, and must never be connected to a
flue serving a separate solid fuel burning appliance. The vent pipe is tested to be run inside
an enclosed 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.
Venting System
With the appliance secured in framing, determine vent routing and identify the exterior
termination location. The following sections
describe horizontal (exterior wall) vent applications. A list of approved venting components
is shown on Page 30.

VENT SECTION LENGTHS
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 461/2" (1181 mm) net section lengths are available
(see Tables 7 and 8).
Offset Installation
Analyze the vent routing and determine the
quantities of vent sections and number of
elbows required. Refer to Figures 16 and 17 on Page 17 showing vent run requirements to
aid in selecting 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 for
an aid in selecting length combinations. Elbows
are available in 90° and 45° configurations. Refer
to Figure 15 on Page 16 for the SV4.5 E45 and
SV4.5 E90 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 6-3/4" (171 mm). The SV4.5LA is fitted with a
dimpled end (identical to a normal vent section
component) and a plain end with 3 pilot holes.
Slip the dimpled 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.
NOTE: Convert inches into metric equivalent
measurement, as follows:
Millimeters (mm) = Inches x 25.4
Centimeters (cm) = Inches x 2.54
Meters (m) = Inches x .0254

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.
C. Attach vent components to each other - Other
vent sections may be added to the previously
installed section in accordance with the requirements shown in Figures 16 and 17 on Page 17.
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 13.
D. Install firestop/spacer at ceiling - When
using Secure Vent, use SV4.5VF firestop/spacer
at ceiling joists. 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.
A firestop spacer is required.
Maintain 1" (25 mm) clearance to combustibles, framing members, and attic or ceiling
insulation when running vertical chimney
sections. Attic insulation shield (H3907) may
be used to obtain the required clearances
indicated here. See installation accessories
on Page 30. The gap between the vent pipe
and a vertical firestop may be sealed with
noncombustible caulking.

E. Support the vertical vent run sections -
Support the vertical portion of the venting
system every eight feet (2.4 m) 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. Strap 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.
F. Change vent direction to horizontal/inclined
run - At transition from or to a horizontal/in-
clined 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 possibility of unlocking
any of the previously connected vent sections
(see Figures 13 and 15).

G. Continue installation of horizontal/inclined
sections - Continue with the installation of the
straight vent sections in horizontal/inclined run
as described in Step C. Install support straps
every three feet (914 mm) along horizontal/
inclined vent runs using conventional plumber’s
tape (Figure 16 on Page 17).
NOTE: Maintain the horizontal/inclined run in
a straight, slightly elevated plane - approximately 1/4" per foot (20 mm per meter) - in
a direction away from the fireplace. Smaller
rise per foot run ratios are acceptable, down
to at or near level. Use a carpenter’s level to
measure from a constant surface and adjust
the support straps as necessary.
NOTE: 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.
NOTE: Attic insulation shield (H3907, see
Page 30) must be installed when blown
or loose-fill insulation is used, and is
required for all attic installations.

HORIZONTAL (OUTSIDE WALL)
TERMINATION SYSTEM
See Figures 16 and 17 on Page 17 illustrating
the various horizontal venting configurations
that are possible for use with these appliances.
Table 9 on Page 17 shows 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.
The horizontal vent system terminates through
an outside wall. Building codes limit or prohibit
terminating in specific areas. Refer to Figure 4 onPage 9 for location guidelines.
Secure Vent® SV4.5 direct-vent system components are unitized concentric pipe components
featuring positive twist lock connection, (refer
to Figure 13 on Page 16). 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.
Make allowances for elbows as indicated in
Figure 15 on Page 16.
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 8 on Page 12.
Cut and/or frame an opening, 10-1/2" x 12-
1/8" (267 mm x 308 mm) inside dimensions,
about this center.
C.Frame ceiling opening - If the vertical route
is to penetrate a ceiling, use a 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 (see Figure 12 on Page
16).
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 13 on Page 16).
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.
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 Figure 13 on Page 16.
F. Install firestop/spacer at ceiling -
When using Secure Vent, use SV4.5VF fire-
stop/spacer at ceiling joists. 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.
The gap between the vent pipe and a firestop
can be sealed with noncombustible caulking.
Maintain 1" (25 mm) clearance to com-
bustibles, 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 eight feet (2.4 m) 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.
H. Change vent direction - At transitions 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 possibility of unlocking
any of the previously connected vent sections (see Figure 13 on Page 16).
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 three feet (1914 mm)
along horizontal/inclined vent runs using
conventional plumber’s tape (see Figure 16
on Page 17).
NOTE: Maintain the horizontal/inclined
run in a straight, slightly elevated plane
- approximately 1/4" per foot (20 mm
per meter) - in a direction away from the
fireplace. Smaller rise per foot run ratios
are acceptable, down to at or near level.
Use a carpenter’s level to measure from
a constant surface and adjust the support
straps as necessary.
Installing Power Vent Termination
J. Assemble vent run to exterior wall - If not
previously measured, locate the center of
the vent on the exterior wall. Prepare an
opening as described in this manual. Assemble the vent system to a point where
the terminus of the last section is within 8"
of the outside wall surface where the power
vent is to be mounted (see Figure 18 on Page 19).
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 Figure 19 on Page 19, refer
to Table 11 on Page 19 for the additional
venting components needed (in addition to
the termination and adaptor) for a particular
range of wall thicknesses.
K.Attach termination adaptor - Attach the
adaptor (SV4.5RCH - provided with the power
vent kit) to the vent section telescoping vent
section, or elbow, as shown in Figures 18 and 19 on Page 17 in the same manner as
any SV4.5 vent component.
