1Approvals and
Codes
High A titude Insta ations
U.L. Listed gas fireplaces are tested and approved for
elevations from 0 to 2 000 feet in the U.S.A. and from 0 to
4 500 feet in Canada.
When installing this fireplace at an elevation above 2 000
feet (in the United States) it may be necessary to decrease
the input rating by changing the existing burner orifice to a
smaller size. Input should be reduced four percent (4%) for
each 1 000 feet above sea level unless the heating value of
the gas has been reduced in which case this general rule
will not apply. To identify the proper orifice size check with
the local gas utility.
When installing this fireplace at an elevation between 2 000
and 4 500 feet (in Canada) the input rating must be reduced
by ten percent (10%).
When installing this fireplace at an elevation above 4 500
feet (in Canada) check with local authorities.
Consult your local gas utility for assistance in determining
the proper orifice for your location.

A. Vent System Approvals
These models are approved to use D-series direct vent pipe
components and terminations (see Figures 4 and 5). Ap-
proved vent system components are labeled for identifica-
tion. This pipe is tested and listed as an approved compo-
nent of the fireplace. The pipe is tested to be run inside an
enclosed wall. There is no requirement for inspection open-
ings at each joint within the wall. There is no required pitch
for horizontal vent runs. N THER VENTING SYSTEMS
R C MP NENTS MAY BE USED.
Detailed installation instructions are included with each vent
termination kit and should be used in conjunction with this
Installers Guide.
The flame and ember appearance may vary based on the type
of fuel burned and the venting configuration used.
Terminations Kits
Identifying Vent Components
The vent systems installed on this gas fireplace may in-
clude one two or three 90° elbow assemblies. The rela-
tionships of vertical rise to horizontal run in vent configura-
tions using 90° elbows MUST BE strictly adhered to. The
rise to run relationships are shown in the venting drawings
and tables. Refer to the diagrams on the next several pages.
N TE: Two 45° elbows may be used in place of one
90° elbow. Rise to run ratios in the vent system must
be followed if 45° elbows are used.
This model has vent starting collars on both the top and the
back of the unit. Depending upon the installation decide
which NE set of starting collars will be used to attach the
vent system. The starting collar sealing cap must remain
on the starting collar N T used.

ponent end with four (4) equally spaced indented sections.
 When the internal beads of each 8-5/8 inch (219mm)
outer pipe line up rotate the pipe section clockwise about
one-quarter (1/4) turn. The vent pipe is now locked together.
 The first 90° elbow installed in the vent system of a rear
venting fireplace MUST BE in a vertical position.

If your vertical vent component is over 10 feet you may
want to install the vertical baffle (located in the bag containing
the install manual) to improve flame appearance. Center
the vertical baffle on the 5 flue being used and with self
tapping screws secure the baffle to the inside of the firebox.

2. Continue Adding Vent Components
 Continue adding vent components locking each succeed-
ing component into place.
 Ensure that each succeeding vent component is secure-
ly fitted and locked into the preceding component in the
vent system.
 90° elbows may be installed and rotated to any point
around the preceding components vertical axis. If an el-
bow does not end up in a locked position with the pre-
ceding component attach with a minimum of two (2)
sheet metal screws.
3. Install Support Brackets
For Horizontal Runs - The vent system must be supported
every five (5) feet of horizontal run by a horizontal pipe support.
To install support brackets for horizontal runs:
 Place the pipe supports around the vent pipe.
 Nail the pipe supports to the framing members.
Figure 17. Adding Venting Components
For Vertical Runs - The vent system must be supported
every eight (8) feet (2.4m) above the fireplace flue outlet by
wall brackets.
To install support brackets for vertical runs:
 Attach wall brackets to the vent pipe and secure the wall
bracket to the framing members with nails or screws.
Figure 18. Installing Support Brackets
4. Install Firestops
For Horizontal Runs - Firestops are REQUIRED on both
sides of a combustible wall through which the vent passes.
NOTE Model DVK-01TRD does not need an exterior
firestop on an exterior combustible wall.
To install firestops for horizontal runs that pass through
either interior or exterior walls:
 Cut a 12-inch by 12-inch (305mm X 305mm) hole through
the wall.
NOTE The center of the hole is one (1) inch (25.4mm)
above the center of the horizontal vent pipe.

For Vertical Runs - One ceiling firestop is REQUIRED at
the hole in each ceiling through which the vent passes.
To install firestops for vertical runs that pass through ceilings:
 Position a plumb bob directly over the center of the verti-
cal vent component.
 Mark the ceiling to establish the centerpoint of the vent.
 Drill a hole or drive a nail through this centerpoint.
 Check the floor above for any obstructions such as wir-
ing or plumbing runs.
 Reposition the fireplace and vent system if necessary
to accommodate the ceiling joists and/or obstructions.
 Cut an 11-inch X 11-inch (280mm X 280mm) hole through
the ceiling using the centerpoint previously marked.
 Frame the hole with framing lumber the same size as the
ceiling joists.

C. Vent Termination
For Horizontal Terminations - To attach and secure the
termination to the last section of horizontal vent:
 Rotate and interlock the ends as described at the begin-
ning of the Installing Vent Components section.
 The termination kit should pass through the wall firestops
from the exterior of the building.
 Adjust the termination cap to its final exterior position on
the building. Figure 24. Round & Trapezoid Termination Caps
