NOTE: Installation and repair should be performed by a qualified service person. The appliance should be inspected annually by a qualified professional service person. More frequent inspections and cleanings may be required due to excessive lint from carpeting, bedding material, pet hair, etc. It is imperative that the control compartment, burners and circulating air passage ways of the appliance be kept clean. Provide adequate clearances around air openings and adequate accessibi

GENERAL INFORMATION LOCATION AND CLEARANCE Make sure your installation location provides adequate combustion and ventilation air. In selecting the location, the aesthetic and functional uses of the appliance are primary concerns. However, vent system routing to the exterior and access to the fuel supply are also important. Consideration should be given to traffic ways, furniture, draperies, etc., due to elevated surface temperatures. The location should also be free of electrical,

INSTALLATION VENT ASSEMBLY There are two basic types of installations approved with your model DV23ZC appliance. These are: Horizontal termination (See Figure 5) Vertical termination (See Figure 10) When planning your installation, refer to Figure 3 to ensure the length of your vent falls into the limits specified in Figure 3. Also consult page 9, “Exterior Vent Locations and Restrictions” regarding the placement of the vent terminal. HORIZONTAL TERMINATION 1. Set the gas appl

INSTALLATION HORIZONTAL TERMINATION (continued) NOTE: The horizontal run of vent must be level, or have a 1/4-inch rise for every 1 foot of run toward the termination. Never allow the vent to run downward. This could cause high temperatures and may present the possibility of a fire. A 2" clearance (airspace) MUST be maintained on all vent pipe. 4. With the pipe attached to the appliance adapter, slide the appliance into its correct location, and mark the wall for a 10" x 10" sq

INSTALLATION HORIZONTAL TERMINATION (continued) Note: The four wood screws provided should be replaced with appropriate fasteners for stucco, brick, concrete, or other types of siding. Venting termination shall not be recessed into a wall or siding. For structures with vinyl siding, a Vinyl Siding Standoff (Part 950) should be installed between the vent cap and the exterior wall. (See Figure 7.) Attach the Vinyl Siding Standoff to the Horizontal Vent Termination. The Vinyl

INSTALLATION VERTICAL TERMINATION 1. Set the gas appliance in the desired location. Drop a plumb bob down from the ceiling to the position of the appliance flue exit, and mark the location where the vent will penetrate the ceiling. Drill a small hole at this point. Next, drop a plumb bob from the roof to the hole previously drilled in the ceiling, and mark the spot where the vent will penetrate the roof. Determine if the ceiling joists, roof rafters or other framing will obstruct the v

INSTALLATION VERTICAL TERMINATION (continued) 5. Slip the flashing over the Pipe Section(s) protruding through the roof. Secure the base of the Flashing to the roof with roofing nails. Ensure the roofing materials overlap the top edge of the Flashing as shown in Figure 12. Verify that you have at least the minimum clearance to combustibles at the roof line. Figure 12 6. Continue to add Pipe Sections until the height of the Vent Cap meets the minimum bu

INSTALLATION VERTICAL TERMINATION (continued) NOTES: Use only 45 degree elbows. Use of 90 degree elbows is not allowed in vertical terminations. The 45 degree elbows offer less restriction to the flow of flue gases and intake air. For multi-story vertical installations, a Ceiling Firestop, (Simpson-Dura-Vent, Part 963) is required at the second floor, and any subsequent floors (Figure 14). The opening should be framed to 10" x 10" inside dimensions, in the same manner as sho

INSTALLATION HIGH ALTITUDE This unit is approved in Canada for altitude from 0 to 2,000 ft. (0 to 600m) (Can 2.17-M90) with the main burner orifice supplied. For installations above 2,000 feet, follow current CAN/CGA-B149.1 and B149.2. In the USA refer to ANSI Z223.1 — latest edition, Appendix F, for resizing the orifice. At altitudes greater than 2,000 feet it is necessary to match the air and fuel requirements by installing a main burner orifice sized for the elevation that the a
