ZERO-CLEARANCE FIREPLACE 

INSTALLATIONS 

1.  Manufacturer’s Instructions: 

Carefully 

read and comply with the manufacturer’s 

installation instructions for your fireplace. Verify 

that DuraVent’s DuraPlus chimney is approved 

for use on your fireplace.

2.  Base Plate:

 Attach a Base Plate to the 

fireplace top with sheet metal screws.  

(Figure 

31)

.  A high temperature sealant may be used 

if desired.  

3.  Chimney Sections: 

Attach a Chimney 

Section to the Base Plate by twist-locking.  

4.  Completion:

 Install the remainder as 

instructed for a standard Ceiling-Supported 

installation, (less the Support Box).  Always 

maintain at least 2 inches of clearance to 

combustibles, and enclose the chimney where 

it passes through occupied areas. 

CONNECTION FROM APPLIANCE 

TO CHIMNEY SYSTEM

1.  Single Wall Stovepipe:

  DuraVent’s 

“DuraBlack” stovepipe is recommended, 

if single wall stovepipe is desired.  The 

connection to the ceiling support box, or 

wall thimble is made with a DuraBlack Slip 

Connector (Part# 1670, 1770, or 1870, for 

6-inch, 7-inch, or 8-inch pipe, respectively).  

The beaded end of the slip connector slips into 

the hole in the ceiling support or wall thimble.  

Align the tabs on the slip connector with the 

notches   in the face of the support or wall 

thimble, push the connector in, and twist to 

lock it in.  Further instructions for assembling 

the DuraBlack pipe are contained in their 

shipping cartons.  Remember, the minimum 

clearance to combustibles for single wall 

stovepipe is 18 inches.

2.  DVL: 

 DuraVent manufactures DVL, which 

is a double-wall connector pipe, which may 

be positioned within 6 inches to a combustible 

wall, and within 8 inches to a combustible 

ceiling, provided the appliance installation 

instructions permit this distance.  In order 

to join this type of connector to the ceiling 

support, or wall thimble, a Close Clearance 

Adaptor (Part #8674, 8774, or 8874, for 

6-inch, 7-inch, or 8-inch pipe, respectively), 

is required. The adaptor slips into the hole in 

the ceiling support, or wall thimble.  Align the 

tabs on the adaptor with the slots cut into the 

face of the ceiling support, or wall thimble, 

push in, and twist to lock it in place.  Detailed 

instructions for assembling the remainder of 

the close clearance system are included in the 

shipping cartons.
