VENTING
The appliance will not function without being connected to a proper venting system.
This appliance may use 4” and 7” gas flex vents with NorthFire-DV36H listed vent components, or Simpson
Duravent 4 x 6 5/8 direct vent systems with Simpson Duravent Adaptor (SDA-1). 7” dia. rigid vent may
directly replace 7” dia. flex vent in all applications.
For best venting performance using gas flex vent, here are some general venting rules that we recommend:
1. Use only 4”and 7” diameter 2-ply certified gas flex vent in a co-axial configuration.
2. Maintain a minimum clearance of 1” to the sides and bottom and 2” to the top outside surface of the vent
pipe and combustible material.
3. Observe any local code restrictions, if any, regarding the installation of this type of gas appliance.
4. Observe the venting chart given in this manual.
5. Use a vent spacer between the inside and outside flex vents at every 3 ft intervals.
6. Never slope horizontal running vents downwards.
7. Maintain at least an upward slope of 1” for every 1 ft of horizontal run on the rear vented models.
8. Terminate the vent with a vent termination supplied by Archgard Industries Ltd.
9. Support horizontal running vents every 3 ft to prevent it from sagging.
10.Wall terminal must be installed a minimum of 12” above grade measured from bottom of
terminal.
