INSTALLATION
PRECAUTIONS

These venting systems are engineered prod-
ucts that have been designed and tested for
use with the E65-NG1, and E65-LP1. The war-
ranty will be voided and serious fire, health or
other safety hazards 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 Simp-

son Dura-Vent and Fireplace Products In-
ternational 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 clearance
requirements from decks, windows, soffits,
gas regulators, air supply inlets and public
walkways as specified in the Exterior Vent
Terminal Locations on page 10 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-
burning appliance.
Each direct vent gas
appliance must use it's own separate vent
system. Common vent systems are prohibited.

SAFETY

PRECAUTIONS FOR

THE INSTALLER

1) Wear gloves and safety glasses for pro-

tection.

2) Exercise extreme caution when using lad-

ders or on roof tops.

3) Be aware of electrical wiring locations in

walls and ceilings.

VENTING

INTRODUCTION

The Horizontal Termination Kit and the Simpson
Dura-Vent Direct Vent System Model DV-GS
venting systems, in combination with the Emer-
ald Direct Vent Freestanding Gas Stoves, E65-
NG1, and E65-LP1, have been tested and listed
as direct vent heater systems by Warnock
Hersey.

These units use 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 combus-
tion 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
connected 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 on page 10.

INSTALLATION

VENT RESTRICTORS

#1 AND #2

Vent restrictors are required for certain venting
installations, see the diagrams on pages 12 and
13 to determine if they are required for your
installation. The two vent restrictors are sup-
plied with your unit. If a vent restrictor is
required it must be installed prior to con-
necting the pipe to the twist-lock appli-
ance adapter.

Slide the restrictor into the adapter collar and
push the tabs down between the inner flue
collar and the inside pipe of the twist-lock
appliance adapter. See the diagram below.

The same procedure is used for vent restrictor
#2.
