venting components. Although you may use the pipe components
(straight pipe, elbows, etc.) from any of the listed manufacturers, you may only use the vent terminations
(caps) listed in the chart on page 8. For installations where a snorkel is needed, please note that only three
snorkels are approved for use. Please plan your installation accordingly.
For all specific venting installation requirements, follow the installation instructions included by the venting
manufacturer with the venting system components you have chosen.
Please note:
For venting configurations that include no vertical rise, a total horizontal vent run of up to 30 inches
(and including one 45° elbow) is allowed. However, if your installation has room to add a vertical pipe
section, we suggest adding at least one foot of vertical rise to the system.
For venting configurations that include vertical rise, it is assumed that the installation will include at
least one 90° elbow. Up to three additional 90° elbows (or equivalent 45° elbows) may also be used.
The total venting may not exceed 20 feet of vertical rise and/or 10 feet horizontal run. Refer to the
venting charts starting on pages 10 & 11 for specific details while you plan your installation. Note:
The number of elbows impacts the maximum allowable horizontal vent run.
If the stove is top vented, the venting may be terminated with either a vertical or horizontal vent cap de-
pending on the specifics of the installation. Refer to the venting charts starting on pages 9&10
for spe-
cific venting requirements and see the chart on page 8 for a list of approved vent caps before you plan
your installation.
The Solas Nua Freestanding Stove is shipped with a custom Simpson DuraVent GS® starter section that
is specifically designed for the Solas Nua. Regardless of the venting brand you chose, you must use the
starter section provided . All of the venting brands listed for use with the Solas Nua Freestanding are
compatible with the provided starter section. For venting system installation details, refer to the instruc-
tions provided with the venting system you have chosen. Each brand has specific installation require-
ments that must be followed to insure a safe and functional venting system for your stove.
