Vista 42 Indoor Gas Fireplace
rev. 110201
Installation
Connection and installation of the vent components must adhere to the
following:
When penetrating a combustible ceiling, a ceiling firestop must be used.
Section 3-3-2:
VENTING COMPONENTS
The following components and associated European Home part numbers are
available for installation of a Wall Mounted Termination. Use only European
Home Vent Components. Use of non-European Home parts will void the war-
ranty and may impede operation of the fireplace.
Use any combination of rigid and flex pipe as required.
Flex sections may be stretched up to 50% of their total length (e.g. a 24”
section maybe stretched to 36”).
Connect all vent sections using a minimum of three sheet metal screws on
the outer pipe.
Ensure the pipe ends male to female slide in a minimum of 11/2” of overlap.
Ensure all runs are supported with a minimum of 3 supports per 10’ of venting.
When supporting the venting, ensure that 1” clearance is maintained on
sides and bottom of vent runs and 2” above horizontal vent runs to any
combustible material.
Ensure when cutting sections of rigid pipe to maintain integrity of internal
supports.
Place the springs, supplied with the pipe kit, between the outer and inner
pipes to keep the pipes separate and avoid any possible hot spots.
European Home recommends the use of a flex section for the final pipe
connected directly to the fireplace offering greater flexibility of installation
and absorption of movement.

European Home recommends that all exterior corners and joints be sealed
with exterior caulking however we encourage you to consult your building
envelope engineer or waterproofing consultant for further recommendations.
IMPORTANT:
Please refer to your building envelope engineer or
waterproofing consultant for a review of all penetrations
through exterior walls or the roof.
