Min. 2 ft (610 mm) Vertical 

Section and One 90°  Elbow

Support the vertical portion of the 

venting system every 8 ft (2.4 m) 

above the fireplace vent outlet.

Horizontal Termination System with Horizontal/Inclined Run

Push the vent component against the collar 

until it fully engages, then twist the component 

clockwise, running the dimples down and along 

the incline channels until they seat at the end of 

the channels. The unitized design of the 

Secure 

Vent

 components will engage and seal both the 

inner and outer pipe elements with the same 

procedure. Sealant and securing screws are 

not required.

E. Attach vent components to each other.

Other vent sections may be added to the previ-

ously installed section in accordance with the 

requirements of the vent tables.  To add another 

vent component to a length of vent run, align 

the dimpled end of the component over the 

inclined channel end of the previously installed 

section, adjusting the radial alignment until the 

four locking dimples are aligned with the inlets 

of the four incline channels of the previous 

section.  Push the vent component against the 

previous section until it fully engages, then 

twist the component clockwise running the 

dimples down and along the incline channels 

until they seat at the end of the channels. 

This 

seating position is indicated by the alignment 

of the arrow and dimple as shown in

 

Figure 

20 on Page 21.

F.

 

Install firestop/spacer at ceiling.

When using Secure Vent, use SV8BF vertical 

firestop/spacer at ceiling joists. If there is  living 

space above the ceiling level, the firestop/ spacer 

must be installed on the bottom side of the 

ceiling. If attic space is above the ceiling, the 

firestop/spacer must be installed on the top side 

of the joist.  Route the vent sections through the 

framed opening and secure the firestop/spacer 

with 8d nails or other appropriate fasteners at 

each corner.

Remember to maintain 1" (25 mm) clearance 

to combustibles, framing members, and attic 

or  ceiling  insulation  when  running  vertical 

chimney sections

Vent Sections

Horizontal (wall) Termination

Systems

This section includes configurations for hori-

zontal venting systems with horizonal termina-

tion (terminates through an outside wall) (see 

Figures 32–34 on Pages 26–27

).

 

 

The tables on 

Pages 26 and 27

 summarize each 

system’s minimum and maximum vertical and 

horizontal length values.

NOTE:

 

Building codes limit or prohibit hori-

zontal termination in specific areas. For loca-

tion guidelines, see

 

Figure 6  

on

 

Page 12

.

Secure Vent

®

 pipe applications are shown in 

the illustrations. 

Secure Vent

 SV8 direct-vent 

system components are unitized concentric 

pipe components featuring positive twist-lock 

connection (see 

Figure 20

 

on

 

Page 21

). The 

appliances covered in this document are fitted 

with collars having locking inclined channels. 

The dimpled end of the vent components fit 

over the appliance collar to create the positive 

twist-lock connection.

A.

 

Plan the vent run.

Analyze the vent routing and determine the 

types and quantities of sections required.  

See 

Page 20

 for a list of available straight vent 

sections and their effective lengths (

Table 7

), 

as well as “

VENT SECTION LENGTHS

” charts. 

See 

Page 35

 for a list of all approved venting 

components.
Plan the vent lengths so that a joint does not 

occur at the intersection of ceiling or roof 

joists. Make allowances for elbows as indi-

cated in 

Figure 22 on Page 22

Maintain a minimum 1" (25 mm) clearance 

to combustibles on the vertical sections. 

Clearances for horizontal runs are 4" (102 

mm) on top, 1" (25 mm) on sides, and 1" 

(25 mm) at the bottom.

b.

 

Frame exterior wall opening.

Locate the center of the vent outlet on the

exterior wall according to the di men -

sions shown in 

Figure 13 on Page 16

Cut and/or frame an opening 16" x 13" (406 

mm x 330 mm) inside dimensions, with 

10" above center and 7" below center.

C.

 

Frame ceiling opening.

If the vertical route is to penetrate a ceiling, 

use plumb line to locate the center above the 

appliance. Cut and/or frame an opening, 13" x 

13" (330 mm x 330 mm) inside dimensions, 

about this center (see 

Figure 19

 

on 

Page 21

)

.

D. Attach vent components to appliance.

To attach a vent component to the appliance 

collar, align the dimpled end over the collar, 

adjusting the radial alignment until the four 

locking dimples are aligned with the inlets of 

the four incline channels on the collar (see 

Figure 20

  on

 

Page 21

)

.

G.

 

Support the vertical run sections.

See

 

Step E

 

on

 

Page 21

.

On the vertical run, support the venting system 

every 8 ft (2.4 m) above the fireplace vent outlet 

with field provided support straps (Plumber's 

tape). 

 

Attach the straps to the vent pipe and 

secure to the framing members with nails or 

screws (see

 

Figure 21 on Page 21

).

H. Change vent direction.

At transition from or to a horizontal/inclined 

run, install the SV8E45 and SV8E90 elbows in 

the same manner as the straight vent sections.  

The elbows feature a twist section to allow them 

to be routed about the center axis of their initial 

collar section to align with the required direc-

tion of the next vent run element. 

Twist elbow 

sections in a clockwise direction only so as 

to avoid the possibility of unlocking any of 

the previously connected vent sections (see

 

Figure 20 on Page 21)

.

I.

 

Continue installation of horizontal/inclined 

sections.

Continue with the installation of the straight vent 

sections in horizontal/inclined run as described 

in 

Step E

. Install support straps every 3 feet 

(1914 mm) along horizontal/inclined vent runs 

using conventional plumber’s tape. 
See 

Figure 29. 

 NOTICE: It is important to install 

horizontal runs on a 

steady,  (i.e., 

no  “dips

”),  slightly  positive  incline

 of 

approximately  1/4"  rise-per-foot  (20 

millimeters  rise-per-meter)  horizontal, 

in  a  direction  away  from  the  fireplace. 

(

Slightly smaller rise-per-foot run ratios 

are acceptable.) Use a carpenter’s level 

to measure from a constant surface, and 

adjust support straps as necessary.
