SECURITY CHIMNEY’S “SECURE VENT DIRECT VENT SYSTEM” and SELKIRK “DIRECT-TEMP VENT SYSTEM” kits are available for horizontal and vertical venting. When using Simpson Duravent, it is recommended that, before installation, a bead of RTV High Temperature Silicone should be applied to each outer vent joint, and Mil-Pac to each inner joint. When planning an installation, it will be necessary to select the proper length of vent pipe for the particular requirements. WARNING: Do not mix parts from different vent manufacturers’s systems.

A 1” (25 mm) clearance to combustibles must be maintained around any vertical vent pipe. Around a horizontal vent pipe, the clearance to combustibles should be 2” (51 mm) above and 11.2” (38 mm) on the sides and bottom. When combustible materials are directly above a 90° elbow, 5” (127 mm) of clearance are necessary (see Figure 20). Table 5. Vent Pipe Minimum Clearances.

Installations in Canada require that a wall thimble be used for passing through walls and ceilings. All sealing and vapour barriers must comply with local building codes. When planning an installation, it is necessary to select the proper length of vent pipe for the particular requirements. The configuration of the venting pipes depends on the locations of walls, ceilings and studs. However, the pipes cannot be of arbitrary length and arrangement. Because the length of the vertical and horizontal sections dramatically affects the burning efficiency of the fireplace, certain guidelines have been set in INITIAL INSTALLATION - VENT CONFIGURATIONS AND RESTRICTOR SETTINGS. Venting terminals can not be recessed into a wall or siding. WARNING: This gas appliance must not be connected to a chimney flue serving a separate solid-burning appli...
