These models are approved to use Simpson Dura-Vent or
Hearth & Home Technologies series pipes, components and
termination. Approved components are labeled for identifi ca-
tion. This pipe is tested and listed as an approved compo-
nent of the stove.
DO NOT USE FIELD-FABRICATED FLUE COMPONENTS.
Refer to the flue manufacturer’s instructions.
This product is approved to be flued either horizontally,
through the side wall or vertically through the roof. You may
flue through a Class A or masonry chimney if an approved
adapter is used.
This gas stove is a balanced fl ue gas stove. All combus-

Do NOT connect this gas gas stove to a chimney
fl ue serving a separate solid-fuel or gas burning
gas stove.

WARNING
Diagonal runs have both vertical and horizontal flue aspects
when calculating the effects. Use the rise for the vertical
aspect and the run for the horizontal aspect. (See Figure
5.1.)
Two 45° elbows may be used in place of one 90° elbow. On
45° runs, one foot of diagonal is equal to 21.6 cm horizon-
tal run and 21.6 cm vertical run. A length of straight pipe is
allowed between two elbows. (See Figure 5.1.)
