covered wall, a vinyl siding standoff or  
furring strips must be used to ensure that  
the termination is not recessed into the  
siding. The four wood screws provided  
should be replaced with appropriate fas-  
teners for stucco, brick, concrete, or other  
types of sidings.  
1) Maintain the 1-1/4" clear-

bustibles when passing  
through ceilings, walls,  
roofs,enclosures,atticraft-

bustible surfaces. Do not

lation.Checkpage9forthe  
maximum vertical rise of  
theventingsystemandthe  
maximum horizontal offset  
limitations.  
5) Before connecting the horizontal run of  
vent pipe to the vent termination, slide the  
black decorative wall thimble cover over  
the vent pipe, then slide the Wall Thimble  
(Part # 942) over the vent pipe.  
6) Slide the appliance and vent assembly to-  
wards the wall carefully inserting the vent  
pipe into the vent cap assembly. It is impor-  
tant that the vent pipe extends into the vent  
cap a sufficient distance so as to result in  
a minimum pipe overlap of 1-1/4 inches.  
Secure the connection between the vent  
pipe and the vent cap by attaching the two  
sheet metal strips extending from the vent  
capassemblyintotheouterwallofthevent  
pipe. Use the two sheet metal screws  
provided to connect the strips to the pipe.  
Bend any remaining portion of the sheet  
metal strip back towards the vent cap, so  
it will be concealed by the decorative wall  
thimble cover. See diagram 6.

the appliance or to offset, as shown in  
diagram 9 to avoid cutting load bearing  
members.  
4) If installing the vent termination to a wall  
with vinyl siding, the Vinyl Siding Standoff  
must be used. Attach the Vinyl Siding  
Standoff to the Horizontal Vent Termina-  
tion, but first run a bead of non-hardening  
mastic around its outside edges, so as to  
make a seal between vent cap and the  
standoff. Install the Vinyl Siding Standoff  
(Part # 950) between the vent cap and the  
exteriorwallandattachwiththefourwood  
screws provided. Seal around the Vinyl  
Siding Standoff on all four sides. Diagram

be pointing up. Insure that the 1-1/4"

Round Support (RDS) &  
Square Support (SQS)  
If your home has a cathedral ceiling (no attic  
spacebetweentheceilingandtheroof), install  
the chimney and support as follows.  
Galvanized pipe and elbows may be uti-  
lized in the attic as well as above the  
roofline. Thegalvanizedfinishisdesirable  
above the roofline due to its higher corro-  
sion resistance.  
1) Situatethechimneyinaconvenientlocation  
as near as possible to the appliance outlet.  
Cut and frame a hole in the roof for the  
support. The sides of this hole must be  
vertical with 1 1/4" clearance.  
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.

Approved for US Installations Only  
The use of an existing chimney as an air  
intake is not covered under the ANSI  
Z21.88b-1999, CSA 2.33b-M99 test meth-  
ods and the resulting ITS/WHI product  
certification. The code Authority Having  
Jurisdiction must be consulted prior to  
proceedingwiththisinstallationmethod.  
Simpson Dura-Vent has provided angle  
brackets with this support which can be  
screwed to the outside of the support box  
and nailed to surrounding framing as re-  
quired. Use a minimum of four #8 x 1/2"  
screws per bracket. In some cases these  
brackets may need to be trimmed (e.g.: to  
fit under a flashing). Place the Finish Collar  
around the support and fasten it to the  
ceiling using the screws provided.  
General  
There are two different types of direct vent  
conversion systems listed below. Follow the  
appropriate directions for your installation.

flashing under the upper shingles and on  
top of the lower shingles approximately  
half of the flashing should be under the

pipe and elbow connections are in their  
fully twist lock position.  
5) Ensure vent is vertical and secure flashing  
to the roof with roofing nails. Slide the  
storm collar over the pipe section and seal  
with a mastic.  
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.  
6) Twist lock the vent cap on to the last  
section.  
Support Extensions - Round  
(RDSE) or Square (SQSE)  
Steep pitched cathedral ceilings may require  
the use of a support extension. This piece fits  
down inside the support and can be adjusted  
to increase the support's length by up to 22".  
The extension is attached to the support using  
theeightmetalscrewsprovided. Besurethere

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.  
The direct vent system must not be con-  
nected to a damaged factory-built or ma-  
sonry chimney.

are in fact, drilling into the metal on the  
chimney. Twist-lock the Termination Cap  
(Part# 980 or 991) onto the Adaptor. (Dia-  
gram 3 and 4).  
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 pen-  
etration.  
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).

properly cured, it is recommended that you  
burn your fireplace for at least four (4) hours  
the first time you use it with the fan on. When  
first operated, the unit will release an odour  
caused by the curing of the paint and the  
burning off of any oils remaining from manu-  
facturing. Smoke detectors in the house may  
go off at this time. Open a few windows to  
ventilate the room for a couple of hours. The  
glass may require cleaning.

NORMAL  
OPERATING  
SOUNDS OF  
GAS APPLIANCES  
It is possible that you will hear some  
soundsfromyourgasappliance.Thisis  
perfectly normal due to the fact that  
there are various gauges and types of  
steelusedwithinyourappliance. Listed  
below are some examples. All arenor-  
mal operating sounds and should  
not be considered as defects in your  
appliance.  
Blower:  
Regency gas appliances use high tech  
blowers to push heated air farther into  
the room. It is not unusual for the fan to  
makea"whirring"soundwhenON.This  
sound will increase or decrease in vol-  
ume depending on the speed setting of  
your fan speed control.  
Burner Tray:  
The burner tray is positioned directly  
undertheburnertube(s)andlogsandis  
made of a different gauge material from  
the rest of the firebox and body. There-  
fore, the varying thicknesses of steel  
will expand and contract at slightly dif-  
ferent rates which can cause "ticking"  
and"cracking"sounds.Youshouldalso  
be aware that as there are temperature  
changes within the unit these sounds  
will likely re-occur. Again, this is normal  
for steel fireboxes.  
Blower Thermodisc:  
When this thermally activated switch  
turns ON it will create a small "clicking"  
sound. Thisistheswitchcontactsclos-  
ing and is normal.  
Pilot Flame:  
While the pilot flame is on it can make a  
very slight "whisper" sound.
