On 45° runs, 1 ft (.3 m) of diagonal is equal to 8-1/2 in. (216
mm) horizontal run and 8-1/2 in. (216 mm) vertical run.

A. Approved Pipe

This appliance is approved for use with Hearth & Home
Technologies DVP venting systems. Refer to Section
17.B. for vent component information.

DO NOT mix pipe, fi ttings or joining methods from differ-
ent manufacturers.

The pipe is tested to be run inside an enclosed wall.
There is no requirement for inspection openings at each
joint within the wall.

WARNING! Risk of Fire or Asphyxiation.

This appliance

requires a separate vent. DO NOT vent to a pipe serving a
separate solid fuel burning appliance.

C. Use of Elbows

Diagonal runs have both vertical and horizontal vent aspects
when calculating the effects. Use the rise for the vertical
aspect and the run for the horizontal aspect (see Figure
7.1).

Two 45º elbows may be used in place of one 90º elbow.
On 45º runs, one foot of diagonal is equal to 8-1/2 in. (216
mm) horizontal run and 8-1/2 in. (216 mm) vertical run. A
length of straight pipe is allowed between two 45º elbows
(see Figure 7.1).

D. Measuring Standards

Vertical and horizontal measurements listed in the vent
diagrams were made using the following standards.

Pipe measurements are shown using the effective length
of pipe (see Figure 7.2).

• Horizontal terminations are measured to the outside

mounting surface (fl ange of termination cap) (see
Figure 6.4.).

• Vertical terminations are measured to bottom of

termination cap.

• Horizontal pipe installed level with no rise.
