DV-2000™ – Vent terminal kits
The certified standard vent terminal kit is Model No. VTK-1 for models
ODH5-F and OCF105A12B and is suitable for installation in walls up
to 0.3 m (14") thick. Both kits contain the following items to complete
the hook-up to the venting and furnace:
Qty Description
1 Terminal
2 Sealing clamps
1 Side-wall venting breach plate
2 Sealing strips
1 Inner wall plate
1 Pressure control with tubing
2 Insulated quick-connect terminals
3 Stainless steel screws
6 Self tapping stainless steel screws
Insulated flexible venting - DV-2000™
The certified venting materials come in 3 lengths, Model No. IFV3-15,
IFV3-23 and IFV3-30 and correspond to 4.6 m, 7.0 m, and 9.1 m (15',
23' and 30') of continuous lengths of vent. The vent construction is
coaxial and incorporates a stainless steel corrugated flexible liner
surrounded by a thick blanket of insulation and covered with an outer
layer of flexible corrugated aluminium sleeve to protect the insulation.
Splicing vent lengths together is prohibited. The minimum and
maximum continuous vent lengths permitted for installation are:
1.5 m (5') minimum 9.1 m (30') maximum
WARNING
Poisonous carbon monoxide gas hazard
Even though the flexible venting is insulated, it
must not be run through an unheated space.
To do so can cause residual condensation inside
the stainless steel liner, which may eventually
perforate the liner and allow vent gasses to enter
the dwelling. This can result in death, personal
injury and/or property damage.

Installation considerations - DV-2000
TM
Select a location for the vent terminal in accordance with all local and
national codes. The following requirements shall be considered to be
minimum requirements that can be overridden by stricter local and
national codes.
FIGURE 1
-
The vent shall not terminate
a. Directly above a paved sidewalk or paved driveway that is
located between two buildings, and that serves both buildings;
b. Less than 2.1 m (7') above any paved driveway;
c. Within 1.8 m (6') (in Canada) of a window or door, or mechanical
air supply inlet to any building, including soffit openings;*
d. Within 1.8 m (6') (in Canada) from the soffit of the roof of the
structure;*
e. Above a gas meter/regulator assembly within 0.9 m (3') of a
vertical centreline of the regulator;
f. Within 1.8 m (6') of any gas service regulator vent outlet, or within
0.9 m (3') of an oil tank vent, or an oil fill inlet;
g. Within less than 0.3 m (1') above grade level;
h. Within 1.8 m (6') of any other combustion air inlet;
i. Within 1.8 m (6') of a property line;
j. Underneath a veranda, porch or deck;
k. So that the flue gases are directed at combustible material or any
openings of surrounding buildings that are within 1.8 m (6');
l. Less than 0.9 m (3') from an inside corner of an L-shaped
structure;
m. So that the bottom of the vent termination opening is less than
0.3 m (1') above any surface that may support ice, snow, or
debris;
n. So that the flue gases are directed toward brickwork, siding or
other construction, in such a manner that may cause damage
from heat or condensation from flue gases.
For installations in the U.S.A. refer to Section 6.7.3.4 of the NFPA
31.
CAUTION
Most codes have a notwithstanding clause that states
that products of combustion shall not enter the dwelling
under any circumstances, even if all other code
requirements as to construction and location have been
complied with. The installer is ultimately responsible to
do whatever is necessary to ensure that flue gasses do
not enter the dwelling.
