LOCATION
In selecting the location, the aesthetic and func-
tional use of the appliance are primary concerns.
However, vent system routing to the outside
atmosphere and access to the fuel supply are
also important. Consideration should be given to
traffic ways, furniture, draperies, etc., due to
high surface temperatures (
Figure 2
). The loca-
tion should also be free of electrical, plumbing or
other heating/air conditioning ducting.
These direct vent appliances are uniquely suited
for installations requiring a utility shelf posi-
tioned directly above the fireplace. Utility shelves
like these are commonly used for locating tele-
vision sets and decorative plants.
To achieve the lowest possible shelf height, use
the alternative rear vent outlet. Do not insulate
the space between the appliance and the area
above it. See
Figure 3 on page 4
. The minimum
height from the base of the appliance to the
underside of combustible materials used to con-
struct a utility shelf in this fashion is shown in the
table in
Figure 3 on page 4
. The weight of the
utility shelf and anything placed upon it may not
be supported by the appliance in anyway.
Table 1
Test gage connections are provided on the
front of the millivolt gas control valve (iden-
tified IN for the inlet and OUT for the mani-
fold side). A ¹⁄₈" NPT test gage connection
is provided at the inlet and outlet side of
the electronic gas control valve.
Minimum inlet gas pressure to these appli-
ances is 5.0 inches water column (1.24 kPa)
for natural gas and 11.0 inches water column
(2.74 kPa) for propane for the purpose of input
adjustment.
Maximum inlet gas supply pressure to these appli-
ances is 10.5 inches water column (2.61 kPa) for
natural gas and 13.0 inches water column (3.23
kPa) for propane.
These appliances must be isolated from the
gas supply piping system (by closing their
individual manual shut-off valve) during any
pressure testing of the gas supply piping sys-
tem at test pressures equal to or less than ¹⁄₂
psig (3.5 kPa).
These appliances and their individual shut-off
valves must be disconnected from the gas
supply piping system during any pressure test-
ing of that system at pressures in excess of ¹⁄₂
psig (3.5 kPa).
These appliances must not be connected to a
chimney or flue serving a separate solid fuel
burning appliance.
Do not use these appliances if any part has been
under water. Immediately call a qualified,
professional service technician to inspect the
appliance and to replace any parts of the con-
trol system and any gas control which have
been under water.
Ne pas se servir de cet appareil s'il a été
plongé dans l'eau, complètement ou en
partie. Appeler un technicien qualifié pour
inspecter l'appareil et remplacer toute partie
du système de contrôle et toute commande
qui ont été plongés dans l'eau.
The millivolt appliances are manually controlled
and feature a spark ignitor (piezo) that allows
the appliance's pilot gas to be lit without the use
of matches or batteries. This system will still
function in the event of a power outage.
Installations at Altitudes of 0 to 4500 ft.-
Units are tested and approved for elevations
of 0 to 4500 feet (0 to 1372 meters).
Installations at Altitudes above 4500 ft.-
For elevations above 4500 feet (1372
meters), install the unit according to the
regulations of the local authorities having
jurisdiction and, in the USA, the latest edition
of the National Fuel Gas Code (ANSI Z223.1)
or, in Canada, the latest edition of the
CAN1-B149.1 and .2 codes.
This appliance may be installed in an af-
termarket permanently located, manufac-
tured home (USA only) or mobile home,
where not prohibited by local codes. This
appliance is only for use with the type of
gas indicated on the rating plate. This ap-
pliance is not convertible for use with
other gases, unless a certified kit is used.
Cet appareil peut être installé dans un maison
préfabriquée (É.-U. seulement) ou mobile déjà
installée à demeure si les réglements locaux
le permettent. Cet appareil doit être utilisé
uniquement avec les types de gaz indiqués
sur la plaque signalétique. Ne pas l'utiliser
avec d'autres gaz sauf si un kit de conversion
certifié est installé.
Carbon Monoxide Poisoning: Early signs of
carbon monoxide poisoning are similar to
the flu with headaches, dizziness and/or
nausea. If you have these signs, obtain fresh
air immediately. Turn off the gas supply to
the appliance and have it serviced by a
qualified professional, as it may not be op-
erating correctly.
Electronic Models -
Electronic models have a fixed rate gas valve.
Input of electronic models is shown in the
following table:

Step 11. (page 25) Install the hoods.
Side Nailing Flanges
The fireplace should be secured to the framing
at the side(s) and/or rear of the unit using the
factory-provided nailing flanges. Install the
nailing flanges - 8 (CDST), 4 (CDPF, CDCL and
CDCR) - as shown in
Figure 7
using the
existing screws. Position the fireplace within
the framing. When required, the flanges may
be bent 90 degrees by hand or with the assis-
tance of a hammer. Use wood screws to
secure the nailing flanges to the framing.
See
Table 2 on page 4
for clearances of framing
members to cabinet parts in the nailing flange
area. The nailing flange itself is exempt from
these clearances.
Floor Nailing Tabs
Secure the fireplace to the floor as shown in
Figure 7.

DETAILED INSTALLATION STEPS
3 - Lift the pressure relief plates and remove
the cardboard from underneath each of them.
4 - Open the control compartment access panel
by actuating the spring loaded magnetic catches
securing the panel, gently depressing the outer
top corners of the panel until the catches "pop"
the panel free, allowing it to swing out and
down to open.
5 - Open the two latches (located under the
firebox floor) securing the glass enclosure
panel. Remove the panel by tilting it outward at
the bottom and lifting it up. Set the door aside
protecting it from inadvertent damage.
See
Figure 57 on page 24.
The appliance is shipped with all gas controls
and components installed and pre-wired.
1 - Remove the shipping carton.
2 - Remove the top louver panel
(see Figure 6)
.
Note: The CDST fireplace is installed in the
framing by cocking it at an angle, fitting the
collar side in first and then twisting and pushing
the other side in. To minimize the obstruction,
it is helpful to make sure the cap is removed
from the rear collar.
If the appliance is to be elevated above floor level,
a solid continuous platform must be constructed.
Headers may be in direct contact with the appli-
ance top spacers but must not be supported by
them or notched to fit around them. All construc-
tion above the appliance must be self supporting,
DO NOT use the appliance for structural support.
All framing details must allow for a mini-
mum clearance to combustible framing
members as shown in
Table 2 on page 4
.

Step 3. INSTALL THE VENT SYSTEM
GENERAL INFORMATION
These instructions should be used as a guide-
line and do not supersede local codes in any
way. Install vent according to local codes,
these instructions, the current National Fuel
Gas Code (ANSI-Z223.1) in the USA or the
current standards of CAN/CGA-B149.1 and -
B149.2 in Canada.
These fireplaces are designed, tested
and listed for operation and installation
with, and only with, Secure Vent Direct
Vent System Components, Secure Flex
Flexible Vent Components manufactured
by Security Chimneys International and
Z-FLEX Model GA Venting Systems listed
to UL1777 and ULCS635 manufactured by
Flexmaster Canada Limited. These ap-
proved vent system components are la-
beled for identification.
DO NOT use
any other manufacturer's vent com-
ponents with these appliances.
These fireplaces must be vented directly
to the outside.
The vent system must not service multiple
appliances, and must never be connected to a
flue serving a solid fuel burning appliance. The
vent pipe is tested to be run inside an enclo-
sure (such as a chase). There is no require-
ment for inspection openings in the enclosure
at any of the joints in the vent pipe.
Preparing the Appliance Vent Collar
Each of the unit's two vent collars are sealed
with a cover plate and a seal cap. The cover
plate and seal cap must be removed from the
vent collar being used. Refer to
Figure 17
for
top vent usage and
Figure 18
for rear, and the
following steps to prepare the appropriate
collar for use.
From the vent collar being used, remove the
two screws securing the vent cap. Twist the
cap counterclockwise. Pull it away from the
unit and discard, along with the piece of
insulation.
Preparing the Appliance Top or Rear Vent
Outlet when vertically terminating the vent
system above the roof
When the top vent collar is being used, from
inside the firebox, loosen the two screws in the
keyhole slots of the cover plate and remove the
remaining two cover plate securing screws.
Remove and discard the cover plate. Reinstall
and securely tighten all four screws.
When the rear vent collar is being used, from
inside the firebox, loosen the two screws in the
keyhole slots of the cover plate and remove the
remaining two cover plate securing screws.
Remove and discard the cover plate. Reinstall
and securely tighten all four screws.
WARNING: FAILURE TO REINSTALL
AND SECURELY TIGHTEN COVER PLATE
SCREWS COULD RESULT IN LEAKAGE
OF FLUE PRODUCTS INTO THE LIVING
SPACE. VENT COVER PLATE AND VENT
SEAL CAP MUST REMAIN SECURELY
INSTALLED ON UNUSED VENT COLLAR.
FAILURE TO DO SO COULD RESULT IN
LEAKAGE OF FLUE PRODUCTS INTO
LIVING SPACE.

VERTICAL TERMINATION SYSTEMS (ROOF)
Figure 21, and Figures 32 through 36 on
pages 14 and 15
and their associated Vertical
Vent Tables illustrate the vertical venting con-
figurations that are allowed to be used with these
appliances. Secure Vent pipe applications are
shown in these figures; Secure Flex pipe may
also be used.
See page 21
. A Vertical Vent Table
summarizes each systems minimum and maxi-
mum vertical and horizontal length values that
can be used to design and install the vent com-
ponents in a variety of applications.
Both these vertical vent systems terminate
through the roof. In the USA, the minimum
vent height above the roof and/or adjacent
walls is specified in ANSI Z223.1(latest edi-
tion); in Canada, by the current CAN-1 B149
installation code. It is also specified in major
building codes. Always consult your local
codes for specific requirements. A general
guide to follow is the Gas Vent Rule (refer to
Figure 4
on page 4).
Vertical (Straight) Installation
Determine the number of straight vent sections
required. 4 ¹⁄₂" (114 mm), 10 ¹⁄₂" (267 mm), 22
¹⁄₂" (572 mm), 34 ¹⁄₂" (876 mm) and 46 ¹⁄₂" (1181
mm) net section lengths are available. Plan the
vent lengths so that a section joint does not occur
within the space defined by ceiling joists or roof
rafters. Refer to the Vent Section Length Chart.

D. Install firestop/spacer at ceiling - When
using Secure Vent, use SV4.5VF firestop/spacer
at ceiling joists; when using Secure Flex, use
SF4.5VF firestop/spacer. If there is living space
above the ceiling level, the firestop/spacer must
be installed on the bottom side of the ceiling. If
attic space is above the ceiling, the firestop/
spacer must be installed on the top side of the
joist. Route the vent sections through the framed
opening and secure the firestop/spacer with 8d
nails or other appropriate fasteners at each
corner. Remember to maintain 1" (25 mm)
clearance to combustibles, framing mem-
bers, and attic or ceiling insulation when
running vertical chimney sections. Attic insu-
lation shield (96K94) may be used to obtain
the required clearances indicated here. See
installation accessories table on page 26.
Vertical (Offset) Installation
Analyze the vent routing and determine the
number of vent sections and elbows required.
Refer to Vertical Vent Figures and Tables on
page 14 and 15 to select the type of vertical
installation desired. Vent sections are available
in net lengths of 4 ¹⁄₂" (114 mm), 10 ¹⁄₂" (267
mm), 22 ¹⁄₂" (572 mm), 34 ¹⁄₂" (876 mm) and 46
¹⁄₂" (1181 mm). Refer to the Vent Section
Length Chart on page 11 for an aid in selecting
length combinations. Elbows are available in
45° and 90° configurations. Refer to
Figure 27
for the SV4.5E45 and SV4.5E90 elbow dimen-
sional specifications.
Where required, a telescopic vent section
(SV4.5LA) may be used to provide the installer
with an option in installing in tight and con-
fined spaces or where the vent run made up of
fixed length pieces develops a joint in a unde-
sirable location, or will not build up to the
required length. The SV4.5LA Telescopic Vent
Section has an effective length of from 1 ¹⁄₂" (38
mm) to 7 ¹⁄₂" (191 mm). The SV4.5LA is fitted
with a locking inclined channel end (identical to
a normal vent section component) and a plain
end with 3 pilot holes. Slip the plain end over
the locking channel end of a standard SV4.5
vent component the required distance and se-
cure with three screws.
Maintain a minimum 1" (25 mm) clearance to
combustible materials for all vertical elements.
Clearances for all horizontal elements are 3"
(76 mm) on top, 1" (25 mm) on sides and 1"
(25 mm) on the bottom.
A. Frame ceiling opening - Use a plumb
line from the ceiling above the appliance to
locate center of the vertical run. Cut and/or
frame an opening, 10¹⁄₂" x 10¹⁄₂" (267mm x
267mm) inside dimensions, about this cen-
ter mark
(Figure 22)
.
To attach a vent component to the appliance
collar, align the dimpled end over the collar,
adjusting the radial alignment until the four lock-
ing dimples are aligned with the inlet of the four
inclined channels on the collar (
refer to Figure
23)
. Push the vent component against the collar
until it fully engages, then twist the component
clockwise, running the dimples down and along
the incline channels until they seat at the end of the
channels. The unitized design of the Secure
Vent components will engage and seal both
the inner and outer pipe without the need for
sealant or screws. If desired, a #6 x ¹⁄₂" screw
may be used at the joint, but is not required as
the pipe will securely lock when twisted.
C. Attach vent components to each other - Other
vent sections may be added to the previously
installed section in accordance with the require-
ments of the vertical vent figures and tables. To
add another vent component to a length of vent
run, align the dimpled end over the inclined
channel end of the previously installed section,
adjusting the radial alignment until the four
locking dimples are aligned with the inlets of the
four incline channels of the previous section.
Push the vent component against the previous
section until it fully engages, then twist the
component clockwise running the dimples down
and along the incline channels until they seat at
the end of the channels.
E. Support the vertical vent run sections -
Note - Proper venting support is very impor-
tant. The weight of the vent must not be sup-
ported by the firplace in any degree.
Support the vertical portion of the venting sys-
tem every 8 feet (2.4m) above the fireplace vent
outlet. One method of support is by utilizing
field provided support straps (conventional
plumber's tape). Secure the plumber's tape to
the framing members with nails or screws.
Loop the tape around the vent, securing the
ends of the tape to the framing. If desired,
sheet metal screws #6 x ¹⁄₂" length may be
used to secure the support straps to the vent
pipe. See
Figure 25.
Another method, where the vent is not adjacent
to a wall, is illustrated in
Figure 26
. Here, support
straps (96K93) and support plates (96K92) can
be used to support the weight of the vent.
B. Attach vent components to appliance - Se-
cure Vent SV4.5 direct vent system components
are unitized concentric pipe components featur-
ing positive twist lock connections (
see Figure
23
). All of the appliances covered in this docu-
ment are fitted with collars having locking in-
clined channels.
The dimpled end of the vent components fit over
the appliance collar to create the positive twist
lock connection.

If the vent system extends more than 5' (1.5 m)
above the roof flashing, stabilizers may be nec-
essary. Additional screws may be used at sec-
tion joints for added stability. Guide wires may
be attached to the joint for additional support on
multiple joint configurations.
G. Continue installation of horizontal/inclined
sections - Continue with the installation of the
straight vent sections in horizontal/inclined run
as described in Step C. Install support straps
every 5 ft. (1.52 m) along horizontal/inclined
vent runs using conventional plumbers tape.
See page 16, Figure 37.
It is very important
that the horizontal/inclined run be maintained
in a straight (no dips) and recommended to be
in a slightly elevated plane, in a direction
away from the fireplace of ¹⁄₄" rise per foot (20
mm per meter) which is ideal, though rise per
foot run ratios that are smaller are acceptable all
the way down to at or near level.
Figure 27
F. Change vent direction to horizontal/in-
clined run - At transition from or to a horizon-
tal/inclined run, install the SV4.5E45 and
SV4.5E90 elbows in the same manner as the
straight vent sections. The elbows feature a
twist section to allow them to be routed about
the center axis of their initial collar section to
align with the required direction of the next vent
run element. Twist elbow sections in a clock-
wise direction only so as to avoid the possiblity
of unlocking any of the previously connected
vent sections. See
Figure 27
.
Use a carpenters level to measure from a
constant surface and adjust the support straps
as necessary.
It is important to maintain the required clear-
ances to combustibles: 1" (25 mm) at all
sides for all vertical runs; and 3" (76 mm) at
the top, 1" (25 mm) at sides, and 1" (25 mm)
at the bottom for all horizontal/inclined runs.
K. Install the vertical termination - The final step
involves installation of the SV4.5CGV-1 Vertical
Termination. Extend the vent sections to the
height as shown in the "Vertical vent termination
section" on page 4. The SV4.5CGV-1 Vertical
Termination
(Figure 31)
can be installed in the
exact same fashion as any other Secure Vent
section. Align the termination over the end of the
previously installed section, adjusting the radial
alignment until the four locking dimples of the
termination are aligned with the inlets of the four
incline channels of the last vent section. Push the
termination down until it fully engages, then twist
the termination clockwise running the dimples
down and along the incline channels until they are
seated at the end of the channels.
I. Install the roof flashing - Extend the vent
sections through the roof structure. Install the
roof flashing over the vent section and posi-
tion such that the vent column rises vertically
(use carpenters level) (
Figure 29
). Nail along
perimeter to secure flashing or adjust roofing
to overlap the flashing edges at top and sides
only and trim where necessary. Seal the top
and both sides of the flashing with waterproof
caulking.
H. Frame roof opening - Identify location for
vent at the roof. Cut and/or frame opening per
Roof Framing Chart and
Figure 28
.
J. Install the storm collar - Install the storm
collar, supplied with the flashing, over the vent/
flashing joint. See
Figure 30.
Loosen the storm
collar screw. Slide collar down until it meets the
top of the flashing. Tighten the adjusting screw.
Apply non-combustible caulking or mastic
around the circumference of the joint to provide
a water tight seal.

pipe passes through a combustible wall.
Note: Two 45 degree elbows may be used in
place of one 90 degree elbow. The same rise to
run ratios, as shown in the venting figures for 90
elbows, must be followed if 45 degree elbows are
used.
Note: It is very important that the horizontal/
inclined run be maintained in a straight (no
dips) and recommended to be in a slightly

Push the vent component against the collar
until it fully engages, then twist the compo-
nent clockwise, running the dimples down and
along the incline channels until they seat at the
end of the channels. The unitized design of the
Secure Vent components will engage and seal
both the inner and outer pipe elements with
the same procedure. Sealant and securing
screws are not required.
E. Attach vent components to each other -
Other vent sections may be added to the previ-
ously installed section in accordance with the
requirements of the vent tables. To add another
vent component to a length of vent run, align
the dimpled end of the component over the
inclined channel end of the previously installed
section, adjusting the radial alignment until the
four locking dimples are aligned with the inlets
of the four incline channels of the previous
section. Push the vent component against the
previous section until it fully engages, then
twist the component clockwise running the
dimples down and along the incline channels
until they seat at the end of the channels.This
seating position is indicated by the alignment
of the arrow and dimple as shown in
Figure 24
on page 12.
F. Install firestop/spacer at ceiling -
When using Secure Vent, use SV4.5VF fir-
estop/spacer at ceiling joists; when using Se-
cure Flex, use SF4.5VF firestop/spacer. If there
is living space above the ceiling level, the fir-
estop/ spacer must be installed on the bottom
side of the ceiling. If attic space is above the
ceiling, the firestop/ spacer must be installed on
the top side of the joist. Route the vent sections
through the framed opening and secure the
firestop/spacer with 8d nails or other appropriate
fasteners at each corner.
Remember to maintain 1" (25 mm) clearance
to combustibles, framing members, and at-
tic or ceiling insulation when running verti-
cal chimney sections. Attic insulation shield
(96K94) may be used to obtain the required
clearances indicated here. See installation
accessories table on page 27.
HORIZONTAL (OUTSIDE WALL)
TERMINATION SYSTEM
Secure Vent SV4.5 direct vent system compo-
nents are unitized concentric pipe compo-
nents featuring positive twist lock connection,
(
refer to Figure 23
on page 12). All of the
appliances covered in this document are fitted
with collars having locking inclined channels.
The dimpled end of the vent components fit
over the appliance collar to create the positive
twist lock connection.
A. Plan the vent run -
Analyze the vent routing and determine the
types and quantities of sections required
4 ¹⁄₂" (114 mm), 10 ¹⁄₂" (267 mm), 22 ¹⁄₂" (572
mm), 34 ¹⁄₂" (876 mm) and 46 ¹⁄₂" (1181 mm)
net section lengths are available. Make allow-
ances for elbows as indicated in
Figure 27 on
page 13
.
Maintain a minimum 1" (25 mm) clearance to
combustibles on the vertical sections. Clearances
for the horizontal runs are; 3" (76 mm) on top, 1"
(25 mm) on sides, and 1" (25 mm) at the bottom.
B. Frame exterior wall opening -
Locate the center of the vent outlet on the exterior
wall according to the dimensions shown in
Figures
9 (CDST), 10 (CDPF), 11 (CDCL), or 12 (CDCR)
on
page 7. Cut and/or frame an opening, 10¹⁄₂" x 12¹⁄₈"
(267 mm x 308mm) inside dimensions, about this
center.
C. Frame ceiling opening - If the vertical
route is to penetrate a ceiling, use plumb line
to locate the center above the appliance. Cut
and/or frame an opening, 10¹⁄₂" x 10¹⁄₂" (267
mm x 267 mm) inside dimensions, about this
center (refer to
Figure 22
on page 12 ).
G. Support the vertical run sections -
See section E on page 12.
H. Change vent direction - At transition from
or to a horizontal/inclined run, install the SV4.5E45
and SV4.5E90 elbows in the same manner as the
straight vent sections. The elbows feature a twist
section to allow them to be routed about the
center axis of their initial collar section to align
with the required direction of the next vent run
element. Twist elbow sections in a clockwise
direction only so as to avoid the possiblity of
unlocking any of the previously connected
vent sections.See
Figure 27 on page 12
.
D. Attach vent components to appliance - To
attach a vent component to the appliance collar,
align the dimpled end over the collar, adjusting the
radial alignment until the four locking dimples are
aligned with the inlets of the four incline channels
on the collar (
refer to Figure 23
on page 12).
I. Continue installation of horizontal/inclined
sections - Continue with the installation of the
straight vent sections in horizontal/inclined
run as described in Step E. Install support
straps every 5 ft. (1.52 m) along horizontal/
inclined vent runs using conventional plumbers
tape. See
Figure 37.
It is very important that
the horizontal/inclined run be maintained in a
straight (no dips) and recommended to be in
a slightly elevated plane, in a direction away
from the fireplace of
¹⁄₄" rise per foot (20 mm
per meter) which is ideal, though rise per foot
run ratios that are smaller are acceptable all the
way down to at or near level. Use a carpenters
level to measure from a constant surface and
adjust the support straps as necessary.
It is important to maintain the required clear-
ances to combustibles: 1" (25 mm) at all sides
for all vertical runs; and 3" (76 mm) at the top,
1" (25 mm) at sides, and 1" (25 mm) at the
bottom for all horizontal/inclined runs
Both of these horizontal vent systems terminate
through an outside wall. Building Codes limit or
prohibit terminating in specific areas. Refer to
Figure 8
on page 6 for location guidelines.
Figure 37, and Figures 40 to 46 on page 18 to
20
and their associated Horizontal Vent Table
illustrate the horizontal venting configurations
that are allowed to be used with these appliances.
Secure Vent pipe applications are shown in these
figures; Secure Flex pipe may also be used.
See
page 21.
A Horizontal Vent Table summarizes
each systems minimum and maximum vertical
and horizontal length values that can be used to
design and install the vent components in a
variety of applications.

NOTE: DIAGRAMS & ILLUSTRATIONS NOT TO SCALE.
M. Install the termination -
J. Assemble vent run to exterior wall - If not
previously measured, locate the center of the
vent at the exterior wall. Prepare an opening as
described in Step B. Assemble the vent system
to point where the terminus of the last section is
within 7¹⁄₂ in. (191 mm) to 11³⁄₄ in. (298 mm)
inboard of the exterior surface to which the
SV4.5HT termination is to be attached, see
Fig-
ure 39
. If the terminus of the last section is not
within this distance, use the telescopic vent
section SV4.5LA, as the last vent section. For
wall thicknesses greater than that shown in
Figure 38
, refer to
Table 3 on page 18
. This table
lists the additional venting components needed
(in addition to the termination and adapter) for a
particular range of wall thicknesses.
K. Attach termination adapter - Attach the
adapter (adapter - SV4.5RCH - provided with
the termination) to the vent section or tele-
scoping vent section), elbow or appliance col-
lar as shown in
Figure 38
in the same manner
as any SV4.5 vent component (refer to Step E).
L. Install Firestop/Spacer at exterior wall -
When using the square termination, install
SV4.5HF (Secure Vent), SF4.5HF (Secure Flex)
Firestop/Spacer over the opening at the exte-
rior side of the framing, long side up, with the
3 inch spacer clearance at the top as shown in
Figure 38
, and nail into place.
(The Firestop/Spacer may also be installed over
the opening at the interior side of the framing.)
When using the round termination, a separate
firestop/spacer is not required since this ter-
mination has integral spacers which provide
the same function as a separate firestop/spacer.
Install the square termination (SV4.5HT)- For
the last step , from outside the exterior wall,
slide the collars of the termination onto the
adapter until the termination seats against the
exterior wall surface to which it will be attached.
Orient the housing of the termination with the
arrow pointed upwards. Secure the termina-
tion to the exterior wall. The horizontal termi-
nation must not be recessed into the exterior
wall or siding by more than the 1 ¹⁄₄" (32 mm)
as shown in
Figure 39
.

must be followed if 45 degree elbows are used.

Square termination (SV4.5HT) shown.
Note: It is very important that the horizontal/inclined run be maintained
in a straight (no dips) and recommended to be in a slightly elevated
plane, in a direction away from the fireplace of
¹⁄₄
" rise per foot (20 mm
per meter) which is ideal, though rise per foot run ratios that are smaller
are acceptable all the way down to at or near level.
*Note: See Figure 39 for wall thickness range reductions when using
SV4.5HT termination.
Note: Secure Vent components (rigid vent pipe and terminal) are shown
in the figures; Secure Flex components (flexible vent pipe and terminal) may
also be used.
See
Table 3
as an aid in venting component selection for a particular
range of exterior wall thicknesses.
WARNING: UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES MAY SEPARATE
SECTIONS OF CONCENTRIC FLEXIBLE VENT PIPE BE JOINED
TOGETHER.
