Vent Termination Clearances
When planning the installation, consider the location of the
vent terminal and clearances. Some of the most common
clearances to keep in mind are shown in Figure 11.
Important: All vent clearances must be maintained.
Check your vent termination clearances against Figures
11 and 12.
The vent should be placed so that people cannot be burned
by accidentally touching the vent surfaces when the stove
is operating.
The vent termination should be located where it cannot be
damaged by such things as automobile doors, lawn mowers
or snowblowers and it should be located away from areas
where it could become blocked by snow, etc.
Some considerations are:
• Obstructions or impediments to venting.
• Nearby combustible materials that could come into
contact with combustion exhaust gases.
• Other nearby openings {within 12" (305 mm)} through
which exhaust gas could reenter the building.
• All vegetation within 3’ (76 mm) that may interfere with
the draft.
Other factors that inuence where the installation will be
sited include the location of outside walls, where additional
heat may be desired in the home, where the family members
gather most regularly, and perhaps most importantly, the
distance limitations of the venting system.
IMPORTANT
The horizontal termination must not be recessed into
the exterior wall or siding.
Horizontal vent runs must be level toward the vent
termination.
Clearances around the vent termination must be
maintained.
For installations using DuraVent pipe, parallel installations
with minimum wall clearance have restricted access for
connecting the Horizontal Vent Cap straps to the vent
pipe. See the maker’s instructions for recommended
installation procedures.
Your stove is approved to be vented either through the side
wall, or vertical through the roof.
• HHT does not require any opening for inspection of vent
pipe.
• Only HHT SLP components or DuraVent venting
components specically approved and labeled for this
stove may be used.
• Minimum clearances between vent pipes and
combustible materials is one (1") inch (25 mm), except
where stated otherwise.
• Venting terminals shall not be recessed into a wall or
siding.
• Horizontal venting must be installed on a level plane
without an inclining or declining slope.
There must not be any obstruction such as bushes, garden
sheds, fences, decks or utility buildings within 24" from the
front of the termination hood.
Do not locate termination hood where excessive snow or ice
build up may occur. Be sure to check vent termination area
after snow falls, and clear to prevent accidental blockage of
venting system. When using snow blowers, make sure snow
is not directed towards vent termination area.
Location of Vent Termination
It is imperative the vent termination be located observing the
minimum clearances as shown in this manual.

CAUTION
All HHT Direct Vent Stoves have been tested and
approved to ANSI/CSA Standards and will operate safely
when installed in accordance with this instruction manual.
Read all instructions before starting installation, then follow
these instructions carefully to maximize stove performance
and safety. Report damaged parts to your dealer.
WARNING
Always maintain minimum clearances around vent
systems. Rear/Top Vent Vertical Side wall: Horizontal
sections of this vent system require a minimum of 3” (76
mm) clearances to combustibles at the top of the ue and
1” (25 mm) clearance at the sides and bottom until the ue
penetrates the outside wall. A minimum 1” clearance all
around the ue is acceptable at this point of penetration. If
vertical rise is 71⁄2 feet (2.3 m) or higher when top venting,
the clearance to combustibles is 1” on all sides of the
horizontal run. FOR VERTICAL RUNS ONLY, maintain a
1” (25 mm) minimum clearance to all sides. Do not pack
the open air spaces around the stove or ue with insulation
or other materials. Any horizontal run must have a 1/4” rise
for every one (1) foot of run towards the vent termination.
Never run the vent level or down.
• These models are approved to use HHT direct vent pipe
components and HHT termination kits, and DuraVent
components. No other venting system components may
be used.
• Horizontal runs must be supported every 3 feet (914 mm)
using wall straps. Vertical runs must be supported every
8 feet (2.4 m) using wall straps. Slip wall straps loosely
on to pipe. Attach straps to framing members using nails
or screws. Tighten nut/bolt to secure pipe.
• The stove and venting system should be inspected
before initial use and at least annually by a qualied
eld service person. Inspect the external vent cap on a
regular basis to make sure that no debris is interfering
with the airow. Inspect entire venting system to ensure
proper function.
Failure to follow these instructions may create a possible
re hazard and will void the warranty.
Any common venting of this gas appliance with other gas
appliances is not allowed.
Important Safety Information
The termination cap MUST be vented directly to the outside.
The termination kit MUST NEVER be connected to a chimney
ue(s) servicing a separate solid-fuel burning appliance or
any other appliances.
• Termination cap MUST NOT be recessed into a wall (see
Figure 19).
• The installation must conform with local codes or in the
absence of local codes, with the National Fuel Gas Code,
ANSI Z223.1 (in the United States) or with the current
installation code CSA B149 (in Canada).

Assemble Slip Sections
!
!
The outer ue of the slip section should slide over the outer
ue of the pipe section and into (inner ue) the last pipe
section. (Figure 23)
Slide together to the desired length, making sure that a 1-1/2"
outer ue overlap is maintained between the pipe section
and slip section.
The pipe and slip section need to be secured by driving two
1/2 in. screws through the overlapping portions of the outer
ues using the pilot holes. (Figure 24)
This will secure the slip section to the desired length and
prevent it from separating. The slip section can then be
attached to the next pipe section.
If the slip section is too long, the inner and outer ues of the
slip section can be cut to the desired length.
WARNING
Risk of Fire/Explosion! DO NOT break seals on slip sec-
tions. Use care when removing termination cap from slip
pipe. If slip section seals are broken during removal of the
termination cap, vent may leak.
Figure24-ScrewsintoSlipSection
Secure the Vent Sections
Vertical sections of SLP pipe must be supported every 8 ft.
The SLP restop includes tabs that may be used to secure
vertical sections.
The vent support or plumber’s strap (spaced 120° apart)
may be used to secure the vertical sections of pipe (see
Figure 25).
Horizontal sections of vent must be supported every 5 ft with
a vent support or plumber’s strap (see Figure 26).
INCORRECTCORRECT
