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 5” inner pipe and an 8” outer pipe. For part numbers see the table of venting components on
page 11 of this manual.
1. Locate the power vent termination following the clearance
to combustible table, venting conguration diagram (Fig. #1 &
1a), and terminal location diagram (Fig. #2).
2. Cut and frame an 11” x 11” opening. The centre of
the square hole should line up with the centre line of the
horizontal pipe.
3. Install the Simpson Duravent (or equivalent) Wall thimble,
part number 1247 (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. (8” hole)
4. Attach the terminal to the outside wall. Ensure that the
terminal is the right way up and that only the outer anges that
are used to secure the terminal to the building are covered by
the exterior wall or siding. (Fig.#3) 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 with three
screws. Note: The inner pipe does not need to be sealed.
(Fig. #4)
6. Connect the high temperature silicone tube to the pressure
tap on the adaptor, secure with the hose clamp provided and
route the tube through any hole back to control box. (Fig.
#4) Tube may touch unit and be trimmed if required. Note:
Ensure that there are no blockages in this tube, as this
will cause the control to malfunction.
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.
