Figures 23 shows the range of venting options, it shows possible vent configurations if the unit is top

vented, for vertical and horizontal terminations, any layout that remains within the shaded area is

acceptable. Having the fewest number of elbows is ideal, as they tend to disrupt air movement. Using

45˚ elbows is preferable to using 90˚ elbows. Also, a shorter vent system will perform better than a

longer one.
The vent restrictor controls the amount of air moving through the vent pipe. Longer vertical vent lengths

necessitate greater restriction; position 1 is open and position 5 is maximum restriction. Figure 23

NOTE: The total length of the vent pipes can

not exceed 32 feet (15.12 m). Any combination

of rise and run can be used as long as it lays

within the shaded area (a total of three (3) 90°

elbows or six (6) 45° elbows can be used).

In addition to what is shown, if a 90°

elbow is used in the horizontal plane,

3 feet (91.4 cm) must be subtracted

from the allowable horizontal run

(for each 45° elbow, 11⁄2 feet

must be subtracted from the

allowable horizontal run).

shows the vent restrictor position required,

relative to the length of vent pipe. The vent

restrictor is located in the center of the

fireplace, above the glass. Figure 24 shows

the vent restrictor dial and the holes that

indicate the different levels. To avoid injury,

it is best to make this adjustment when the

fireplace is cool or use welder’s gloves or

oven mitts.
Note: 0,0 in Figure 23 represents a 90˚

bend directly off the outlet of the unit, 413⁄4

inches (106 cm) from floor, in all horizontal

instances except when using Selkirk and

having less than a 4 feet (1.22 m) rise and

8 feet (2.44 m) horizontal offset. In this

case, a 1 foot (30.5 cm) rise must be added

below the 90˚ bend.
Note for rear vented: At 293⁄8 inches (75

cm) up, the maximum horizontal rear exit

vent length is 17 inches (43 cm) with a 45°

elbow (see Figure 12).
