Vent Requirements
Travis Industries manufactures a vent kit specifically for this insert (sku 96200339).
It includes 30’ (10M) of vent, hose clamps, and a high wind cap. The flashing on
the cap is 18” (458mm) by 18” (458mm).
Travis Industries manufactures a vent kit specifically for this insert (sku 96200330).
It includes 30’ (10M) of vent, hose clamps, and a prairie cap. The flashing on the
cap is 18” (458mm) by 18” (458mm).
The gas appliance and vent system must be vented directly to the outside of the building, and never be attached to
a chimney serving a separate solid fuel or gas-burning appliance. Each direct vent gas appliance must use its own
separate vent system.
Make sure the exhaust pipe on the heater connects to the exhaust portion of the cap. The illustrations below show
how the flex liners should be attached.
The exhaust vent must reline the entire length of the chimney and terminate above the chimney top.
Be careful not to crimp or rupture the liner when bending it into chimney offsets.
When installed, the vent must meet all of the vent manufacturer's requirements.
Use the following vent:
3” UL 441 or 1777 Gas Liner for Exhaust, 3” UL 441 or 1777 Gas Liner for Air Inlet
Duravent 6-5/8” to 3” Co-Linear Adapter and Flashing (46DVA-Gk)
Duravent High-Wind Vertical Termination (46DVA-VCH) for high-wind applications or Prairie Cap
Drafting Performance
This direct vent appliance requires natural draft to operate (similar to a wood stove or other heating appliance). Draft
can be adjusted using the included restrictor. The restrictor settings detailed in the manual should be followed
(variations may occur depending upon installation parameters).
Many factors may negatively influence the draft of the appliance. Travis Industries will not be responsible for improper
draft due to factors such as trees, hills, buildings, obstructions, excessive wind, extreme hot or cold outdoor
temperatures, restrictive vent terminations, or influence from mechanical systems.
