INSTALLATION PLANNING
There are two basic types of direct-vent in-
stallation:
• Horizontal Termination
• Vertical Termination
Horizontal Termination Installation
IMPORTANT: Horizontal square terminations
require only inner portion of wall restop. Hori-
zontal installations using round termination require
exterior portion of wall restop (see Figure 14,
page 12).
1. Set the replace in its desired location and deter-
mine the route your horizontal venting will take.
Do not secure the replace until all venting has
been installed. Some installations require sliding
the replace in and out of position to make nal
venting connections. Figures 14 through 18 on
pages 12 through 14 show different congura-
tions for venting with horizontal termination that
will help you decide which application best suits
your installation. Check to see if wall studs or
roof rafters are in the path of your desired vent-
ing route. If they are, you may want to adjust the
location of the replace.
2. Direct vent pipe sections and components are
designed with special twist-lock connections.
The female ends of the
pipes have locking lugs (indentations). These
lugs will slide straight into matching slots on
the male ends of adjacent pipes. Push pipe sec-
tions together and twist one section clockwise
approximately one-quarter turn until the sections
are fully locked (see Figure 8). Note: Horizontal
runs of vent must be supported every three feet.
Use wall straps for this purpose.
3. Use a 45° elbow to connect venting system
to replace ue collar. The elbow is designed
to be twist-locked onto the flue collar as
described in step 2. IMPORTANT: Do not
attempt to alter the conguration of the elbow
by cutting, twisting, bending, etc.
4. Assemble the desired combination of pipe and
elbows to the replace ue collar. If there are
long portions of venting run, pre-assembled
pipe sections may be installed as subassem-
blies for convenience.

5. Carefully determine the location where the vent
pipe assembly will penetrate the outside wall.
The center of the hole should line up with the
center-line of the horizontal vent pipe. Mark the
wall for a 10

/4" x 10
3
/4" square hole. Cut and
frame the square hole in the exterior wall where
the vent will be terminated. If the wall being
penetrated is constructed of noncombustible
material, such as masonry block or concrete,
a 8
1
/2" hole with zero clearance is acceptable
(see Figure 9).
