Planning Your Dura-Vent
Installation
There are two basic types of Dura-Vent Direct
Vent System installations: horizontal termination
and vertical termination. Confi rm the maximum
horizontal run and maximum vertical rise
from the diagrams in the "Rigid Pipe Venting
Arrangements" section.
When planning your installation, it will be
necessary to select the proper length of vent
pipe for your particular requirements. For
horizontal installations, determine the minimum
clearance from the rear of the unit to the wall.
It is also important to note the wall thickness.
(The wall thimble is suitable for 2 x 4 or 2 x 6
wall construction.) Select the amount of vertical
rise desired for "vertical-to-horizontal" type
installations.
Warning: Always maintain required
c l e a r a n c e s ( a i r s p a c e s ) t o n e a r b y
combustibles to prevent a fi re hazard. Do
not fi ll air spaces with insulation.
The minimum clearance requirements between
the outer wall of the vent pipe and nearby
combustible surfaces is 1-1/4 inch. Be sure
to check the vent termination clearance
requirements from decks, windows, soffi ts,
gas regulators, air supply inlets and public
walkways as specifi ed in the "Exterior Vent
Terminal Locations" section and in your local
building codes.
To determine the length of vent pipe required
for vertical installations, measure the distance
from the unit fl ue outlet to the ceiling, the ceiling
thickness, the vertical rise in an attic or second
storey, and allow for suffi cient vertical height
above the roof line.
For multi-storey applications, fi re stops are
required at each fl oor level. If an offset is
needed, additional pipe, elbows and supports
will be required.
DURA-VENT VENTING
COMPONENTS
You will require the following components with
your new Regency
®
Direct Vent Freestanding
Gas Stove. Please review your product to make
sure you have everything you need. In the event
that you are missing any part, contact your dealer.
Note:
These are the minimum pieces
required. Other parts may be required
for your particular installation. See
the "Dura-vent Horizontal Kit"
section for a list of vent parts.
If installing termination on a siding covered wall,
a vinyl siding standoff or furring strips can be
used in order to ensure that the termination is
not recessed into siding.
The vinyl siding standoff is required for walls
with vinyl siding.

See the "Rigid Pipe Venting
Arrangments" section for pipe lengths.
The Simpson Dura-Vent Direct Vent System
offers a complete line of component parts
for installation of both horizontal and vertical
installation. Many items are offered in decorative
black, as well as galvanized finish. The
galvanized pipe and fittings are used for
concealed locations such as attics or where
corrosion is a factor, such as above the roof
line. Decorative brass trim kits are available for
both wall thimbles and ceiling support boxes.
