General Vent Installation Information
This gas appliance is approved to be vented either through the side wall or vertically
through the roof.
Only Kingsman venting kits and components specifically
approved and labelled for this stove may be used
. This appliance is also approved for
use with Simpson-Duravent Direct Vent system, Model DV-GS Series, and Ameri-Vent
Direct Vent Pipe System.
SIMPSON DURAVENT OR A
MERI
V
ENT
When using Simpson Duravent or AmeriVent pipe a Duravent adapter must be used
(part # ZDVDFA for fireplaces). Follow installation instructions provided by Simpson
Duravent for installation of pipe and adhere to the clearance to combustibles provided in
this manual. Apply a bead of Mill Pac high temp sealant to all joints of pipes, adapters
and termination as recommended.
Flex Pipe Venting
Flex pipe is shipped in unexpanded length. When installing pipe expand the lengths.
Pipe can be expanded to twice their lengths e.g. 4ft. to 8ft.
Do not use more than 2 couplers to extend short pipes. Single sections are preferred in
an installation attaching at the fireplace and termination.
Place the spring spaces provided approximately every two feet to stabilize 4” flex in the
center of 7” flex. When forming bends place spring in bend or before and after. (See Fig. 1).
Horizontal runs require support metal straps every 2 feet. In off set installation support
straps should be used to stabilize pipe.
Expand 4” and 7” flex pipe to the point that the 7” protrudes approximately 2 to 3 inch-
es past outer wall and the 4” flex protrudes approximately 2 to 3 inches past the 7” flex.
See Fig. 1. Attach the 4” pipe to the termination first and secure with sealant and screws
then attach the 7” flex to the termination with caulking and screws. Termination may
then be moved back to the outer wall and attached to home screwing into the framing.
Silicone around termination to waterproof. If siding shield is going to be used attach this
using same attaching hole as the top of termination after termination has been caulked
for water proofing.
Use Hi Temp Sealant
Apply a bead of mill pac high temp sealant to all joints and use four screws to secure
each pipe at fireplace, termination and any joint if joining any sections of pipe.
Installation Of Side Wall Venting
1. The minimum distance from the bottom of fireplace to centre of vent is 33 inch
(85 cm) (See Figure 1). Cut a hole through the wall allowing for a 11” x 11”
(inside diameter) in combustible walls for wall thimble or an 8” diameter hole in a
non-combustible wall (See Figure 2).
2. Note clearance to combustible above 90 degree bend is 2 1/2”.
3. Select the approximate vent length, precise measurements are not needed as your
flex pipe can be expanded to twice its shipped length for ease of installation.
4. To install wall thimble centre over 11” x 11” (inch) framing from both sides of
wall and secure. Route flex vent pipe through wall thimble (See Figure 1).
5. Before joining pipes, apply a bead of high temperature sealant (Mill Pac) to end of
pipe. First attach the four inch (4”) flue pipe to the vent termination with sealant,
and secure with the four screws provided. At this time make sure the spacer
springs are attached to the (4”) flex pipe as required. Then attach the seven inch
(7”) pipe by the same method.
6. Mount vent termination and seal to wall using caulking around the wall thimble to
weather proof. After installing the vent termination, double check to make sure the
pipe extends properly through wall thimble and into vent termination.
7. Before joining pipes to fireplace flue, apply a bead of high temperature sealant
(Mill Pac) to end of pipe. First attach the four inch (4”) flue pipe to fireplace with
sealant, and secure with the four screws provided. At this time verify that the
spacer springs are attached properly to the (4”) flex pipe as required. Then attach
the seven inch (7”) pipe by the same method.
8. Support horizontal pipes every two (2) feet (61 cm) with metal strap bands. Re-
check fireplace to make sure it is levelled and properly positioned and secured.
9. Support vertical pipes to maintain a minimum of 1” or greater clearance to com-
bustibles with metal strapping bands.
Note: Vent Termination must not be recessed into wall or siding.
NOTE:
It is critical to the proper and safe operation of
this fireplace that on all connections the inner liner and the
outer casing are both caulked with liberal amounts of
sealant. Do not use any kind of tape or silicone other than
that recommended in this manual. Mill Pac Sealant
