These models have flue starting collars on both the top
and the back of the unit. Depending upon the installa-
tion, decide which ONE set of starting collars will be
used to attach the flue system. The starting collar sealing
cap must remain on the starting collar NOT used.
These models use SL-D-series direct flue components
when using the TOP flue collars and DVP-series direct
flue components when using the REAR flue collars.
WARNING: YOU MUST NOT MIX DVP-SERIES
AND SL D-SERIES COMPONENTS IN ANY FLUE
SYSTEM CONFIGURATION.
Approved flue system components are labeled for
identification. NO OTHER FLUEING SYSTEMS OR
COMPONENTS MAY BE USED. Detailed installation
instructions are included with each flue termination kit
and should be used in conjunction with this manual. Figure
5 below shows flue system components and terminations.

the flueing drawings and tables on the next few pages.
