Waterford TARA T25 Direct Vent Freestanding Gas Stove

VENTING

INTRODUCTION

The following vent systems in combination with
the Tara Direct Vent Freestanding Gas Stove,
have been tested and listed as direct vent
heater systems by Warnock Hersey:

1) The Minimum Horizontal Termination with

the DV Stove Horizontal Riser Vent Kit
(Part# 640-944)

2) Vertical Termination using Co-Linear Flex

System

3) The DV Stove Horizontal Vent Kit

4) The Simpson Dura-Vent Direct Vent Sys-

tem Model DV-GS venting systems

The Tara uses the "balanced flue" technology
Co-Axial system. The inner liner vents products
of combustion to the outside while the outer
pipe draws outside combustion air into the
combustion chamber thereby eliminating the
need to use heated room air for combustion and
losing warm room air up the chimney.

Note: These flue pipes must not be con-

nected to any other appliance.

The gas appliance and vent system must be
vented directly to the outside of the building, and
never be attached to a chimney serving a
separate solid fuel or gas burning appliance.
Each direct vent gas appliance must use it's
own separate vent system. Common vent sys-
tems are prohibited.

IMPORTANT

Read all instructions carefully before starting
the installation. Failure to follow these instruc-
tions may create a fire or other safety hazard,
and will void the warranty. Be sure to check the
venting and clearance to combustible require-
ments. Consult your local building codes
before beginning installation.

The location of the termination cap must con-
form to the requirements in the Exterior Vent
Terminal Locations diagram on page 10.

INSTALLATION
PRECAUTIONS

These venting systems are engineered prod-
ucts that have been designed and tested for
use with the Tara. The warranty will be voided
and serious fire, health or other safety haz-
ards may result from any of the following
actions:

1) Installation of any damaged Direct Vent

component

2) Unauthorized modification of the Direct

Vent System

3) Installation of any component part not man-

ufactured or approved by Simpson Dura-
Vent or Fireplace Products International
Ltd.

4) Installation other than as instructed by

Simpson Dura-Vent and Fireplace Prod-
ucts International Ltd.

Warning: Always maintain required
clearances (air spaces) to nearby
combustibles to prevent a fire haz-
ard. Do not fill air spaces with insu-
lation.

Be sure to check the vent termination clear-
ance requirements from decks, windows,
soffits, gas regulators, air supply inlets and
public walkways as specified in the Exterior
Vent Terminal Locations on page 9 and in your
local building codes.

The gas appliance and vent system must
be vented directly to the outside of the
building, and never be attached to a chim-
ney serving a separate solid fuel or gas-
