HORIZONTAL TERMINATIONS
Diagram 1
b)
Horizontal runs of fl ue must be supported
every three feet. Wall straps are
available for this purpose.
5)
Mark the wall for a 10" (254mm) x 10"
(254mm) square hole. The center of
the square hole should line up with the
centerline of the horizontal pipe. Cut and
frame the 10 inch square hole in the exterior
wall where the fl ue will be terminated. If
the wall being penetrated is constructed
of non-combustible material, i.e. masonry
block or concrete, a 7"(178mm) diameter
(7-1/2"(191mm) dia. for flex) hole is
acceptable.
Note:
a)
The horizontal run of fl ue must be level, or
have a 1/4" (6.3mm) rise for every 1 foot
(0.3m) of run towards the termination.
Never allow the fl ue to run downward.
This could cause high temperatures and
may present the possibility of a fi re.
b)
The location of the horizontal flue
termination on an exterior wall must meet
all local and national building codes, and
must not be blocked or obstructed. For
External Flue Terminal Locations, see
diagram on page 10.
c)
Snorkel Terminations:
For installations requiring a vertical
rise on the exterior of the building, see
Diagram 2. Follow the same installation
procedures as used for standard
Horizontal Termination.
*As specifi ed in CGA B149 Installation Code.
Local codes or regulations may require different
clearances.
Diagram 2
6)
The arrow on the flue cap should
be pointing up.
Insure that the 1-1/2"
clearances to combustible materials are
maintained (Dia. 3). Install the termination
cap.
Install the flue system according to the
manufacturer's instructions included with the
components.
1)
Set the unit in its desired location. Check
to determine if wall studs or roof rafters
are in the way when the fl ueing system is
attached. If this is the case, you may want
to adjust the location of the unit. Rough in
the gas preferably on the right side of the
unit and the electrical (junction block is on
the left side) on the left.
2)
Direct Flue pipe and fi ttings are designed with
special twist-lock connections to connect the
fl ueing system to the appliance fl ue outlet. A
twist-lock appliance adaptor is an available
option that must be used in conjunction with
the Simpson Dura-Vent Direct Flue GS
system.
3)
Put a bead of silicone inside the outer
section of the adapter and a bead of Stove
Mate on the inner collar. Slip the adapter
over the existing inner and outer fl ue collar
and fasten to the outer collar only with the
3 supplied screws (drilling pilot holes will
make this easier). Level the fi replace and
fasten it to the framing using nails or screws
through the nailing strips.
4)
Assemble the desired combination of pipe
and elbows to the appliance adaptor and
twist-lock for a solid connection.
Note:
a)
Twist-lock procedure: Four indentations,
located on the female ends of pipes and
fi ttings, are designed to slide straight
onto the male ends of adjacent pipes
and fi ttings, by orienting the four pipe
indentations so they match and slide
in to the four entry slots on the male
ends, Dia. 1. Push the pipe sections
completely together, then twist-lock
one section clockwise approximately
one-quarter turn, until the two sections
are fully locked. The female locking lugs
will not be visible from the outside, on
the Black Pipe or fi ttings. They may be
located by examining the inside of the
female ends.
Note: Apply sealant "Mill-Pac" to inner
pipe and high temperature silicone
sealant to outer pipe on every twist-
lock joint.
The four wood screws provided should
be replaced with appropriate fasteners for
stucco, brick, concrete, or other types of
sidings.
Note: If installing termination on a siding
covered wall, a vinyl siding standoff or
furring strips must be used to ensure
that the termination is not recessed
into the siding.
7)
Before connecting the horizontal run of
fl ue pipe to the fl ue termination, slide the
Wall Thimble (Part # 620-926) over the fl ue
pipe.
8)
Slide the appliance and fl ue assembly
towards the wall carefully inserting the fl ue
pipe into the fl ue cap assembly. It is important
that the fl ue pipe extends into the fl ue
cap suffi cient distance so as to result in a
minimum pipe overlap of 1-1/4" (32mm).
Secure the connection between the fl ue pipe
and the fl ue cap 3 sheet metal screws.
9)
Install wall thimble in the center of the 10"
(254mm) square and attach with wood
screws (Diagram 4).
Below Grade Snorkel Installation
If the Snorkel Termination must be installed
below grade, i.e. basement application, proper
drainage must be provided to prevent water
from entering the Snorkel Termination. Refer
to Dura-Vent Installation instructions for details.
Do not attempt to enclose the Snorkel within the
wall, or any other type of enclosure.
