Venting System Assembly - Natural Vent

General Information

The Stardance Heater is shipped from the factory as a
Direct Vent Heater. It may be converted to a Natural
Vent heater by installing the Vermont Castings Model
Z31D00 FSDHAG Draft Hood Adapter.
The Stardance Heater is approved for installation as
a Natural Vent. CFM Direct Vent pipe could be used
directly after the Draft Hood Adapter up to the ceiling,
then B-vent pipe must be used. Do not mix types of
B-vent pipe; use components from one maker or the
other. Follow the vent component maker’s instructions
exactly. The heater will also accept standard or enam-
elled 7” (178mm) diameter pipe, around the Type B
venting, for decorative purposes only. (Fig. 32)
NOTE: The restrictor plate supplied with the stove
is not used for Natural Vent applications.

The Stardance stove, when installed as a Natural vent
heater, includes a vent safety switch. (Page 36, Figure
66) Operating the stove when it is not connected to a
properly installed and maintained venting system, or
tampering with or disconnecting the vent safety switch,
can result in carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning and pos-
sible death.
For U.S. installations: The venting system must con-
form with local codes and/or the current National Fuel
Gas Code, ANSI Z22.1.
For Canadian installations: The venting system must
conform to the current CSA B149.1 installation code.
