The vinyl siding standoff is required for walls
with vinyl siding.
Warning: Always maintain required
clearances (air spaces) to nearby
combustibles to prevent a fire hazard. Do
not fill air spaces with insulation.
Theminimumclearancerequirementsbetween

Terminal Locations" section and in your local
building codes.
To determine the length of vent pipe required
for vertical installations, measure the distance
from the unit flue outlet to the ceiling, the ceiling
thickness, the vertical rise in an attic or second
storey, and allow for sufficient vertical height
above the roof line.

1) Set the unit in its desired location. Check
to determine if wall studs or roof rafters
are in the way when the venting system is
attached. If this is the case, you may want
to adjust the location of the unit.
b) The location of the horizontal vent
termination on an exterior wall must
meet all local and national building

INSTALLATION
Note:
If installing termination on a siding
covered wall, a vinyl siding standoff
or furring strips must be used to
ensure that the termination is not
recessed into the siding. The four
wood screws provided should be
replaced with appropriate fasteners
for stucco, brick, concrete, or other
types of sidings.

If the Snorkel Termination must be installed
below grade, i.e. basement application, proper
drainagemustbeprovidedtopreventwaterfrom
entering the Snorkel Termination. Refer to Dia.
4. Do not attempt to enclose the Snorkel within
the wall, or any other type of enclosure.
1) Maintain the 1-1/4"
clearances (air spaces) to
combustibleswhenpassing
through ceilings, walls,
roofs, enclosures, attic
rafter, or other nearby
combustible surfaces.
Do not pack air spaces
with insulation. Check
the "Rigid Pipe Venting
Arrangments" section for
themaximumverticalriseof
the venting system and the
maximum horizontal offset
limitations.
5) Before connecting the horizontal run of vent
pipe to the vent termination, slide the black
decorative wall thimble cover over the vent
pipe, then slide the Wall Thimble (Part #
942) over the vent pipe.
6) Slide the appliance and vent assembly
towards the wall carefully inserting the
vent pipe into the vent cap assembly. It is
important that the vent pipe extends into
the vent cap a sufficient distance so as to
result in a minimum pipe overlap of 1-1/4
inches. Secure the connection between the
vent pipe and the vent cap by attaching the
two sheet metal strips extending from the
vent cap assembly into the outer wall of the
vent pipe. Use the two sheet metal screws
provided to connect the strips to the pipe.
Bend any remaining portion of the sheet
metal strip back towards the vent cap, so
it will be concealed by the decorative wall
thimble cover. See diagram 6.
2) Set the gas appliance
in its desired location.
Drop a plumb bob down
from the ceiling to the
position of the appliance

CLASS-A METAL
CHIMNEY OR
MASONRY CHIMNEY
TO A DIRECT VENT
SYSTEM
Note: If you are using a 6" square support
you may find it difficult to screw it
in place because it is fairly small
inside.
Approved for US Installations Only
The use of an existing chimney as an air
intakeisnotcoveredundertheANSIZ21.88b-
1999, CSA 2.33b-M99 test methods and the
resulting ITS/WHI product certification. The
code Authority Having Jurisdiction must
be consulted prior to proceeding with this
installation method.
Simpson Dura-Vent has provided angle
brackets with this support which can be
screwedtotheoutsideofthesupportboxand
nailed to surrounding framing as required.
Use a minimum of four #8 x 1/2" screws
per bracket. In some cases these brackets
may need to be trimmed (e.g.: to fit under
a flashing). Place the Finish Collar around
the support and fasten it to the ceiling using
the screws provided.
General
There are two different types of direct vent
conversion systems listed below. Follow the
appropriate directions for your installation.
Converting a Factory Built Metal
Chimney
A) Through an existing factory built metal
chimney going through the ceiling: A typical
conversion of this type is shown in diagram
1. The concept of direct vent conversion is
to connect an adaptor to an Underwriters
Laboratories (UL) listed 4 inch diameter
aluminum flex pipe which is then passed
downthroughthecenteroftheexistingmetal
chimneysystem.ThreesizesofTopAdaptors
are available from Simpson Dura-Vent. The
Retro Connector (909B) is attached to the
bottom of the flex pipe. The Top Adaptor
and the Retro Connector are attached to the
existing chimney with sheet metal screws.
The appliance is then connected to the
chimney with appropriate black direct vent
pipe and an adjustable length section.
1) Remove the existing chimney cap.
2) Measurethedistancefromthetopendofthe
chimney to the bottom of the ceiling support
box, add 3" (76mm) to this measurement,
and cut a section of the 4" flex pipe to that
length (the flex should already be extended
to its nominal length).
3) Use appropriate roof flashing. Place the
flashingundertheuppershinglesandontop
of the lower shingles approximately half of
the flashing should be under the shingles.
4) Assemble the desired lengths of Black Pipe
and Elbows necessary to reach from the
appliance adaptor up through the support
boxandflashingtoproperheightasperDia.

B) Through the wall of an existing masonry
chimney:Atypical conversion of an existing
masonry chimney is shown in Diagram 6. A
TopAdaptor(985K)andFlashingareusedat
the top of the masonry chimney. The 4 inch
aluminum liner is connected to the adaptor
and is passed down the chimney and out
through the masonry wall and attached
to the Retro Connector (909B). The Retro
Connector is attached to the masonry wall
and then connected to the direct vent pipe
leading to the appliance.
5) Ensureventisverticalandsecureflashingto
the roof with roofing nails. Slide the storm
collar over the pipe section and seal with a
mastic.
6) Twist lock the vent cap on to the last
section.
Support Extensions - Round
(RDSE) or Square (SQSE)
Steep pitched cathedral ceilings may require
the use of a support extension. This piece fits
down inside the support and can be adjusted to
increase the support's length by up to 22". The
extension is attached to the support using the
eight metal screws provided. Be sure there is
at least a 2 inch overlap where the extension
joins the support.
Prior to installation and connection of the
vent system to a factory-built or masonry
chimney,thechimneymustbeinspectedand
thoroughly cleaned by a qualified service
person, such as a certified chimney sweep
or home inspection service.

Twist-lock the Termination Cap (Part# 980
or 991) onto the Adaptor. (Diagram 3 and
4).
Converting a Masonry Chimney
Important: The existing masonry flue
opening needs to have an area of at least
a 36 sq. in. to insure proper intake/exhaust
flow.
1) Before cutting any holes, assemble the
desired sections of black direct vent pipe
to determine the center of the masonry
penetration.
Diagram 7
4) To determine the length of flex required,
measure from 3" (76mm) above the top of
theFlashingdowntotheleveloftheopening.
Add to this measurement the distance from
the center of the chimney to out through
the wall. Cut a piece of 4" flex to this length
(the flex should already be extended to its
nominal length).

the appliance might starve for intake air. If
there is a frame wall in front of the masonry
wall, cut and frame a 10" (254mm) clear
squareopeninginthewall(centeredaround
the 6" (152mm) masonry opening). IF there
is sheet rock only (no studs) in front of the
masonry, the 10" (254mm) clear opening
is still needed, but does not need to be
framed. This allows the Retro Connector to
mount directly on the masonry and provide
clearance to the combustibles. Diagram
