Model DuraSeal may be installed outside the building envelope
where required providing the installation meets local code
requirements. In colder climates it is recommended to use model
DSID which has a 2’’ fiber insulation between the annular space.
The insulation ensures reduced velocity noise and can protect the
flue gas from freezing up to -20°C (-4°F). Do not install a drain
fitting on exterior / make sure the DSID is brought into the interior
building envelope by at least 2-feet.
