PDV20/SDVR Installation Procedure

– for Pinnacle Direct Vent

1. Attach the Snapstat to the Bracket using two #10 x

1/2” phillips screws as shown in Figure 1.

2. Locate and remove the 1/4-20 x 3/8” hex head bolt

installed in the hole in the right rear ledge of the ﬁre-

box. (A, Fig. 1) Use that bolt to secure the Snapstat

Bracket to the ﬁrebox. The mounting hole is slotted to

let you adjust the bracket so that the snapstat head

makes contact with the ﬁrebox surface. (Fig. 1)

3. Attach the Fan to the ﬁrebox by engaging the upper

ﬂange of the fan skirt under the lower edge of the

Shroud and secure the skirt with the four #10 x 1/2”

Hex Hd Cap screws and one star washer provided.

5. A length of silicone tape is included for installation

between the Top Plate and the Rear Shroud, should

you ﬁnd that contact between these two surfaces

causes vibration while the fan is operating.

• Remove the Top Plate.

• Cut the self-adhesive tape to size as needed,

remove the backing paper and place tape on the top

edge of the Shroud at those locations where it will

eliminate direct contact between the Shroud and the
