The Simpson Dura-Vent Direct Vent System offers a complete line of component parts for
installation of both horizontal and vertical installation. Many items are offered in decorative black,
as well as galvanized finish. The galvanized pipe and fittings are used for concealed locations
such as attics or where corrosion is a factor, such as above the roof line. Decorative brass trim
kits are available for both wall thimbles and ceiling support boxes.
Planning Your Dura-Vent
Installation
There are two basic types of Dura-Vent Direct
Vent System installations: horizontal termina-
tion and vertical termination. Confirm the max-
imum horizontal run and maximum vertical rise
from the diagrams on page 13.

galvanized finish is desirable above the

Continue to add pipe sections through the
flashing until the height of the vent cap
meets the minimum height requirements
specifiedindiagram12orlocalcodes. Note
that for steep roof pitches, the vertical
height must be increased. A poor draft, or
down drafting can result from high wind
conditions near big trees or adjoining roof
lines, in these cases, increasing the vent
height may solve the problem.

MASONRY CHIMNEY
TO A DIRECT VENT
SYSTEM
General
There are two different types of direct vent
conversion systems listed below. Follow the
appropriate directions for your installation.
Converting a Factory Built Metal
Chimney
Diagram 3
A) Throughanexistingfactorybuiltmetalchim-
ney going through the ceiling: A typical
conversionofthistypeisshownindiagram
1. The concept of direct vent conversion is
to connect an adaptor to an Underwriters
Laboratories (UL) listed 4 inch diameter
aluminum flex pipe which is then passed
down through the center of the existing
metal chimney system. Three sizes of Top
AdaptorsareavailablefromSimpsonDura-
Vent. The Retro Connector (909B) is at-
tachedtothebottomoftheflexpipe.TheTop
Adaptor and the Retro Connector are at-
tached to the existing chimney with sheet
metal screws. The appliance is then con-
nected to the chimney with appropriate
black direct vent pipe and an adjustable
length section.
1) Remove the existing chimney cap.
2) Measure the distance from the top end of
the chimney to the bottom of the ceiling
support box, add 3" (76mm) to this meas-
urement, and cut a section of the 4" flex
pipe to that length (the flex should already
be extended to its nominal length).
Diagram 4
5) Pull the flex pipe down through the ceiling
supportbox,untilitprotrudesapproximate-
ly 3" (76mm). Connect the flex pipe to the
Retro Connector by slipping it into the
4-3/4"diametersleeveonthetopsideofthe
Connector. Use 3 sheet metal screws to
assemble these two parts.
6) Push the flex pipe back up into the ceiling
support box, center the Retro Connector,
and attach it to the support box, or decora-
tive sleeve for double wall solid packed
pipe, with the sheet metal screws (sup-
plied). TheholesintheRetroConnectorare
pre-punched. Diagram 5.
B) Through the wall of an existing masonry
chimney: A typical conversion of an exist-
ing masonry chimney is shown in Diagram
6. A Top Adaptor (985K) and Flashing are
usedatthetopofthemasonrychimney.The
4 inch aluminum liner is connected to the
adaptor and is passed down the chimney
and out through the masonry wall and
attached to the Retro Connector (909B).
The Retro Connector is attached to the
masonry wall and then connected to the
direct vent pipe leading to the appliance.
Prior to installation and connection of the
vent system to a factory-built or masonry
chimney, the chimney must be inspected
and thoroughly cleaned by a qualified
service person, such as a certified chim-
ney sweep or home inspection service.

and the mounting holes line up with the
masonry wall.
Converting a Masonry Chimney
Important: The existing masonry flue
opening needs to have an area of at least
a 36 sq. in. to insure proper intake/ex-
haust flow.
1) Before cutting any holes, assemble the
desiredsectionsofblackdirectventpipeto
determine the center of the masonry pene-
tration.
Diagram 9
9) Slide the Wall Thimble Cover (Part # 940)
over the Retro Connector and secure with
masonry bolts. Diagram 10. If you have a
framed wall in front of the masonry, use
wood screws to mount the Wall Thimble
Cover to the framed wall, over the Retro
Connector and the 10" (254mm) square
framedopening.Diagram11.Ifneeded,add
a section of direct vent pipe to the Retro
Connector in order to extend through the
opening in the Wall Thimble Cover.
Diagram 7
4) To determine the length of flex required,
measure from 3" (76mm) above the top of
the Flashing down to the level of the open-
ing. Add to this measurement the distance
fromthecenterofthechimneytooutthrough
the wall. Cut a piece of 4" flex to this length
(the flex should already be extended to its
nominal length).
5) Connect the 4" flex liner to the Top Adaptor
(Part # 985K) using 3 sheet metal screws.

INSTRUCTIONS
indicator points to the "PILOT" position. De-
press the gas control knob fully. Depress
the igniter button several times until the pilot
lights. After approximately one minute, re-
lease the gas control knob. The pilot flame
should continue to burn. If the pilot does not
remainlit,repeatoperationallowingalonger
period before releasing gas control knob.
1) Read and understand these instructions
before operating this appliance.
2) Check to see that all wiring is correct and
enclosed to prevent possible shock.
PILOT ADJUSTMENT
4) When the pilot stays lit, turn the gas knob
further counterclockwise to the "ON" posi-
tion.
3) Check to ensure there are no gas leaks.
Periodically check the pilot flames. Correct
flame pattern has three strong blue flames: 1
flowing around the thermopile, 1 around the
thermocoupleand1flowingacrosstheburner
(it does not have to be touching the burner).
4) Make sure the glass in the door frame is
properly positioned. Never operate the ap-
pliance with the glass removed.
5) Use the ON/OFF switch, wall switch, ther-
mostat or remote control to turn on the unit.
5) Verify that the venting is unobstructed.
6) Rotate the flame height regulator (Hi/Lo) to
adjust the flame height higher or lower.
Note: If you have an incorrect flame
pattern, contact your Regency
dealer for further instructions.
6) Verify log placement. If the pilot cannot be
seen when lighting the unit - the logs have
been incorrectly positioned.
SHUTDOWN
PROCEDURE
7) The unit should never be turned off, and on
again without a minimum of a 60 second
wait for purging.
1) Use the ON/OFF switch, wall switch, ther-
mostat or remote control to turn off the
burner.
Note: Clean fingerprints off the gold
before lighting stove.
2) Push in the PILOT knob slightly and turn
clockwise to off. Do not force.
Top View of pilot flame
Incorrect flame pattern will have small,
probably yellow flames, not coming into
proper contact with the rear burner or
thermopile or thermocouple.
3) Turn off all electric power to the appliance
if service is to be performed.

LIGHTING
PROCEDURE

IMPORTANT
To ignite or reignite the pilot,
remove one glass panel/door.
The glass panel may require cleaning after the
unit has cooled down. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO
CLEAN THE GLASS WHILE IT IS HOT.
Only when the pilot holds, without pressure
being applied to the control knob, resecure
the glass panel to the unit. The unit must not
be operated with the glass removed.
Note: When the glass is cold and the
appliance is lit, it may cause con-
densation and fog the glass. This
condensation is normal and will
disappear in a few minutes as the
glass heats up.
IMPORTANT: Gas cock knob cannot be
turned from "PILOT" to "OFF" unless it is
partially depressed.
