•  Use extreme caution when using ladders 

or when on roof tops.

•  Be aware of electrical wiring locations in 

walls and ceilings.

The following actions will void the warranty 

on your venting system:
•  Installation of any damaged venting com

-

ponent.

•  Unauthorized  modification  of  the  venting 

system  (Do  not  cut  or  alter  vent  compo

-

•  Installation  of  any  component  part  not 

manufactured or approved by FMI PROD

-

UCTS, LLC.

•  Installation  other  than  as  instructed  by 

these instructions.

 WARNING: This gas fireplace 

and  vent  assembly  must  be 

vented  directly  to  the  outside. 

The venting system must NEVER 

be attached to a chimney serv

-

ing a separate solid fuel burning

  WARNING:  Vent  pipe  air 

space  clearances  to  combus

-

tibles are 1" on all sides except 

on the horizontal sections, 

which  require  2"  clearances 

from the top of the pipe. Where 

the termination cap penetrates 

a combustible wall, 1" air space 

clearance is required.

NOTICE: Read these instruc-

tions completely before attempt

-

ing installation.

These models are tested and approved for 

use with FMI PRODUCTS, LLC (direct-vent) 

pipe components and terminations.
The venting system must terminate on the out

-

side of the structure and can not be attached 

to a chimney or flue system serving a separate 

solid fuel or gas burning appliance. A direct-vent 

appliance must have its own venting system. 

DO NOT common vent this appliance.
These  models  are  approved  to  be  vented 

either horizontally through an outside wall or 

vertically through a roof or chase enclosure 

using the following guidelines:

•  When venting system terminates horizon

-

tally  on  an  outside  wall,  you  may  install 

a standoff if the termination cap is to be 

installed  directly  on  a  combustible  finish 

such as vinyl, wood, stucco, etc.

•  Never run the vent downward as this may 

cause excessive temperatures which could 

cause a fire.

•  Vent  pipe  air  space  clearances  to  com

-

bustibles are 1" on all sides except on the 

horizontal sections, which requires 2" clear

-

ance from the top of the pipe. Where the 

termination cap penetrates a combustible 

wall, 1" air space clearance is required.

•  Snorkel  terminations  are  required  when 

minimum  clearance  to  grade  cannot  be 

met (see Figure 16 on page 13).

•  Have fireplace and selected vent compo

-

nents on hand to help determine the exact 

measurements when elbowing or offsetting. 

Always use wall firestops when penetrating 

walls and firestops when penetrating ceil

-

ings or attic spaces.

•  If  using  a  venting  configuration  of  only 

horizontal  venting  with  no  vertical  run,  a 

1/4"  rise  for  every  12"  of  run  toward  the 

termination is required.

•  For installation of fireplace at elevations of 

4000 feet or greater, pay special attention 

to venting requirement recommendations.

 WARNING: Read all instructions 

completely and thoroughly before 

attempting  installation.  Failure  to 

do so could result in serious injury, 

property damage or loss of life.
