INSTALLATIONVENTINGINTRODUCTIONINSTALLATIONPRECAUTIONSSAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR
THE INSTALLER

The Horizontal Termination Kit and otherapproved venting systems as per table on next page,in combination with the Direct Vent Freestanding
Gas Stoves, H27-NG, and H27-LP, have beentested and listed as direct vent heater systems by
Warnock Hersey.

These venting systems are engineered productsthat have been designed and tested for use with the
H27-NG, and H27-LP. The warranty will be voided
and serious fire, health or other safety hazards may
result from any of the following actions:

1) Wear gloves and safety glasses for protection.

These units use the "balanced flue" technology
Co-Axial system. The inner liner vents productsof combustion to the outside while the outer pipe
draws outside combustion air into the combustion
chamber thereby eliminating the need to use heatedroom 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 systems are prohibited.

IMPORTANT
Read all instructions carefully before starting the
installation. Failure to follow these instructions may
create a fire or other safety hazard, and will void thewarranty. Be sure to check the venting and clearance to combustible requirements. Consult yourlocal building codes before beginning installation.
The location of the termination cap must conformto the requirements in the "Exterior Vent Terminal
Locations" section.

1) Installation of any damaged Direct Vent component2) Exercise extreme caution when using ladders
or on roof tops.
3) Be aware of electrical wiring locations in walls
and ceilings.

VENT RESTRICTORPOSITION

2) Unauthorized modification of the Direct Vent
System3) Installation of any component part not manufactured by approved venting systems as pertable on next page or FPI Fireplace ProductsInternational Ltd.

loosen the screws and push the vent restrictor plateto the correct position. Tighten the screws.

4) Installation other than as instructed by approved
venting systems as per table on next page andFPI Fireplace Products International Ltd.

Warning: Always maintain required
clearances (air spaces) to nearby
combustibles to prevent a fire hazard.
Do not fill air spaces with insulation.
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"section 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 chimney serving aseparate solid fuel or gas-burning appliance.

DV STOVE HORIZONTAL VENT KIT (#946-116 & #946-216) INSTALLATION
Review the following sequence of instructions
which are typical of most installations. The sequence may vary depending on wall thickness.
See the "Exterior Vent Terminal Locations"section for vent location and clearance
dimensions, and "Vent Restrictor Position"section to set the Vent Restrictor to thecorrect position.

b) Install wall thimbles on both interior
and exterior wall with 4 wood screws(#8 x 1") per thimble.
c) Attach the 2 piece adjustable pipe section to the vent terminal and slide into
position from the exterior. The larger
diameter end of the adjustable pipegoes to the vent terminal.

1) Set the unit in its desired location. Checkto determine if wall studs will be in the wayof the venting system, adjust location until
all clearances are met and there are no
obstructions.

d) Install the 90o elbow onto the adjustable pipe to determine the verticalcenterline.
Note: if the centerline cannot be met,
the adjustable sections will have to
be cut.

Note: A 1-1/2"(38mm) clearance around theouter pipe must be maintained exceptthat only a 1" (25mm) clearance isneeded at the termination end.

IMPORTANT:Do not locate termination hood where
excessive snow or ice buildup may
occur. Be sure to check vent termination area after snow falls, and clear toprevent accidental blockage of venting
system. When using snow blowers,
make sure snow is not directed towards
vent termination area.

2) Assemble a trial fit to determine the verticalcenterline for the vent termination.

Planning Your Dura-Vent
Installation
There are two basic types of Dura-Vent Direct
Vent System installations: horizontal terminationand vertical termination. Confirm the maximum
horizontal run and maximum vertical rise from thediagrams in the "Venting Arrangement" section.
When planning your installation, it will be necessary to select the proper length of vent pipe
for your particular requirements. For horizontal
installations, determine the minimum clearance
from the rear of the unit to the wall. It is also
important to note the wall thickness. (The wall

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" section and in your local building codes.

Warning: Always maintain required
clearances (air spaces) to nearby
combustibles to prevent a fire
hazard. Do not fill air spaces withinsulation.

To determine the length of vent pipe requiredfor vertical installations, measure the distancefrom the unit flue outlet to the ceiling, the ceilingthickness, the vertical rise in an attic or second
storey, and allow for sufficient vertical height
above the roof line.

The minimum clearance requirements between
the outer wall of the vent pipe and nearby
combustible surfaces is 1-1/2", except when
passing through a wall, ceiling, or at the termination where the use of a firestop or wall thimble
reduces the required clearance to 1".

For multi-storey applications, fire stops are
required at each floor level. If an offset isneeded, additional pipe, elbows and supports
will be required.

HORIZONTALTERMINATIONS
1) Set the unit in its desired location. Check todetermine if wall studs are in the way whenthe venting system is attached. If this is thecase, you may want to adjust the locationof the unit.

Diagram 1a) The horizontal run of vent should have a
1/4 inch rise for every 1 foot of run towards
the termination. Never allow the vent to run
downward. This could cause high temperatures and may present the possibility of a
fire.
b) The location of the horizontal vent termination
on an exterior wall must meet all local andnational building codes, and must not be
blocked or obstructed. Refer to the "Exterior
Vent Terminal Locations" section.
c) Snorkel Terminations:
For installations requiring a vertical riseon the exterior of the building, 14-inch and36-inch tall Snorkel Terminations as shownin Diagram 2 are available, as well as thestandard Riser Vent. Follow the same installation procedures as used for standard
Horizontal Termination. NEVER install thesnorkel upside down.

*Diagram 2a: As specified in CGA B149 Installation Code. Local codes or regulations may
require different clearances.

2) Assemble the desired combination of pipeand elbow to the appliance adapter with pipe
seams oriented down. Offset the pipe seams
as double seams in one place will cause theouter pipe to take an oval shape. Kit comescomplete with 18" of straight vent - 6-5/8" dia.
black outer pipe and 4" dia. inner vent.
3) With the pipe attached to the stove, slide
the stove into its correct location, and markthe wall for a
9-1/2" (inside dimensions)round hole. The center of the round holeshould line up with the centerline of thehorizontal pipe, as shown in diagram 1. Cutand frame the 9-1/2 round hole in the exterior wall where the vent will be terminated.
If the wall being penetrated is constructedof non-combustible material, i.e. masonry
block or concrete, a 7" diameter hole isacceptable.

Diagram 2b

NOTE: For Snorkel terminations in ABOVE
grade installations, follow national or
local code requirements.
Below Grade Snorkel Installation
If the Snorkel Termination must be installed
below grade, i.e. basement application,
proper drainage must be provided to prevent
water from entering the Snorkel Termination.
Refer to Installation instructions for details..
Do not attempt to enclose the Snorkel within
the wall, or any other type of enclosure.
4) Install wall penetration heat shield in thecenter of the 9-1/2" round hole and attachwith wood screws. The four wood screws
provided should be replaced with appropriate fasteners for stucco, brick, concrete, orother types of sidings. Diagram 3.
5) 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. Diagram

7) Install the Backing Plate into the wall penetration heat shield and attach using 4 screws.
Dia. 4.

d) Slide the appliance and vent assembly
towards the wall carefully inserting the ventpipe into the riser vent terminal assembly. It
is important that the vent pipe extends into
the Riser Vent Backing Plate a sufficientdistance so as to result in a minimum pipe
overlap of 1-1/4 inches. Secure the connection between the vent pipe and the ventcap by attaching the two sheet metal strips
extending from the Riser Vent Backing Plate
into the outer wall of the vent pipe. Use
two aluminum screws provided to connect
the strips to the pipe section. Bend any
remaining portion of the sheet metal strip
back towards the vent cap and cut off any
excess, it will be concealed by the decorative wall thimble cover. See diagram 5.

8) Connect all pipe sections to unit and install
into wall:a) Measure pipe length required and cut tolength. Hint: use the cut end of the 6-5/8"
dia. outer pipe at the vent terminal end.
b) Push the pipe sections completely together,
the minimum pipe overlap is 1-1/4". Secure
all outer pipe joints by using at least twoscrews. Locate the screws at the bottom of
the pipe so that the screw heads are hiddenon the final installation.
NOTE: For best results and optimum
performance with each approved venting system, it is highly recommended
to apply “Mill-Pac” sealant (supplied) toevery inner pipe connection. Failure to
do so may result in drafting or performance issues not covered under warranty.
Silicone (red RTV) is optional.

Diagram 5
8) Slide the decorative wall thimble up to thewall surface being careful not to scratch thepaint. See diagram 5.

VERTICALTERMINATIONS
1) Maintain the 1-1/2" clearances, except when
passing through a wall, ceiling, or at thetermination where the use of a firestop orwall thimble reduces the required clearance
to 1". Do not pack air spaces with insulation.
Check the "Venting Arrangement" section
for the maximum vertical rise of the venting
system and the maximum horizontal offset
limitations.
2) Set the gas appliance in its desired location.
Drop a plumb bob down from the ceilingto the position of the appliance flue exit,
and mark the location where the vent will
penetrate the ceiling. Drill a small hole atthis point. Next, drop a plumb bob fromthe roof to the hole previously drilled in
the ceiling, and mark the spot where thevent will penetrate the roof. Determine if
ceiling joists, roof rafters or other framing
will obstruct the venting system. You may
wish to relocate the appliance or to offset,
as shown in diagram 8 to avoid cutting load
bearing members.

9) Back outside: Apply sealant to the 4" innerflue and slide the Riser Vent Front into the
Backing Plate and fasten with 8 screws.
IMPORTANT:
When connecting the pipe to the Riser
Vent, apply Mill-Pac to the inner pipe on
the Riser Vent Terminal, around the bead.
Ensure that the vent pipe is pushed past
the bead for a secure fit.
10) Seal around the outer edge of the Riser
Vent Backing Plate.

Diagram 10: The upper half of the flashing isinstalled under the roofing material and not
nailed down until the chimney is installed. This
allows for small adjustments.

Note: If an offset is necessary in the attic
to avoid obstructions, it is importantto support the vent pipe every 3 feet,to avoid excessive stress on theelbows, and possible separation.
Wall straps are available for thispurpose. See diagram 5.

Notes:
a) For multistorey vertical installations,a Ceiling Fire stop is required at thesecond floor, and any subsequent floor.
Diagram 12. The opening should beframed to 10 " x 10" inside dimensions,in the same manner as shown in diagram
9.
b) Any occupied areas above the first floor,
including closets and storage spaces,
through which the vertical vent passes,
must be enclosed.

Galvanized pipe and elbows may be utilized
in the attic as well as above the roofline.
The galvanized finish is desirable above
the roofline due to its higher corrosion
resistance.
Diagram 9

Continue to add pipe sections through the
flashing until the height of the vent cap
meets the minimum height requirements
specified in diagram 11 or local codes.
Note that for steep roof pitches, the verticalheight must be increased. A poor draft, or
down drafting can result from high windconditions near big trees or adjoining rooflines, in these cases, increasing the ventheight may solve the problem.

4) Assemble the desired lengths of black pipeand elbows necessary to reach from theappliance adapter up though the RoundSupport Box. Insure that all pipes and elbow
connections are in the fully twist-locked
position and sealed.

METAL CHIMNEY OR
MASONRY CHIMNEY TO
DIRECT VENTSYSTEM

The use of an existing chimney as an air intake
is not covered under the ANSI Z21.88a-2007,
CSA 2.33a-2007 test methods and the resulting ITS/WHI product certification. The
code Authority Having Jurisdiction must
be consulted prior to proceeding with thisinstallation method.

There are two different types of direct ventconversion systems listed below. Follow theappropriate directions for your installation.

Converting a Factory Built Metal
ChimneyA) Through an existing factory built metalchimney going through the ceiling: A typicalconversion 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 diameteraluminum flex pipe which is then passed
down through the center of the existing metalchimney system. Three sizes of Top Adaptors
are available from Simpson Dura-Vent. The
Retro Connector is attached to the bottomof the flex pipe. The Top Adaptor and theRetro 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 andan adjustable length section.
B) Through the wall of an existing masonrychimney: A typical conversion of an existing masonry chimney is shown in Diagram
6. A Top Adaptor and Flashing are used at
the top of the masonry chimney. The 4 inchaluminum liner is connected to the adaptor
and is passed down the chimney and out
through the masonry wall and attached to
the Retro Connector. The Retro Connector
is attached to the masonry wall and thenconnected to the direct vent pipe leading to
the appliance.

2) Measure the distance from the top end of thechimney 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).

7) Ensure vent is vertical and secure the baseof the flashing to the roof with roofing rails,
slide storm collar over the pipe section andseal with a mastic.
8) Install the vertical termination cap by twist
locking it.
Notes:
a) For multistorey vertical installations,a Ceiling Fire stop is required at thesecond floor, and any subsequent floor.
Diagram 12. The opening should beframed to 10 " x 10" inside dimensions,in the same manner as shown in diagram
9.
b) Any occupied areas above the first floor,
including closets and storage spaces,
through which the vertical vent passes,
must be enclosed.

Note: If you are using a 6" square support
you may find it difficult to screw it inplace because it is fairly small inside.
Simpson Dura-Vent has provided angle
brackets with this support which can bescrewed to the outside of the support
box and nailed to surrounding framing as
required. Use a minimum of four #8 x 1/2"
screws per bracket. In some cases thesebrackets 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.
3) Use appropriate roof flashing. Place theflashing under the upper shingles and on
top of the lower shingles approximately halfof the flashing should be under the shingles.
4) Assemble the desired lengths of Black
Pipe and Elbows necessary to reach fromthe appliance adapter up through the support box and flashing to proper height asper Dia. 12, local codes or in the "Venting
Arrangement" section. Ensure that all pipeand elbow connections are in their fully twist
lock position.
5) Ensure vent is vertical and secure flashing to
the roof with roofing nails. Slide the storm
collar over the pipe section and seal with amastic.

Since some municipalities have additional local
codes it is always best to consult with your local
authorities and the CAN/CGA B149 installation
codes.
For USA installations follow local codes and/or the current National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI
Z223.1.
When using copper or flex connectors use only
approved fittings. Always provide a union so thatgas lines can be easily disconnected for burner
and/or valve servicing. Flare nuts for copper lines
and flex connectors are usually considered tomeet this requirement.

IMPORTANT: ALWAYS CHECK FOR
GAS LEAKS WITH A SOAP AND
WATER SOLUTION OR GAS LEAK
DETECTOR. DO NOT USE OPEN
FLAME FOR LEAK TESTING.
Note: Prior to any pressure testing of the gas
supply piping system that exceeds
test pressures of 1/2 psig, this appliance must be disconnected fromthe piping system. If test pressuresequal to or less than 1/2 psig are usedthen this appliance must be isolated
from the piping system by closing
its individual manual shut-off valve
during the testing.

the chimney and support as follows.
1) Situate the chimney in a convenient location as near as possible to the applianceoutlet. Cut and frame a hole in the roof forthe support. The sides of this hole must be
vertical with 1 1/4" clearance.
2) Place the support in the opening. Lower itto the correct height as determined by thetable and diagram below.
Using a level, make sure the support isvertical. If the support extends above theroof, cut it flush with the top of the roof.
Nail the support to the frame opening using(8) 3" spiral nails or #8 x 1-1/2" screws.
Hampton® H27 Direct Vent Freestanding Gas Stove

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 toincrease the support's length by up to 22". The
extension is attached to the support using theeight metal screws provided. Be sure there is
at least a 2 inch overlap where the extension
joins the support.

Hampton® H27 Direct Vent Freestanding Gas StoveMAINTENANCENORMAL OPERATINGSOUNDS OFGAS APPLIANCES
It is possible that you will hear some sounds
from your gas appliance. This is perfectly normal
due to the fact that there are various gauges
and types of steel used within your appliance.
Listed below are some examples. All are normal
operating sounds and should not be considered
as defects in your appliance.
Blower:Hampton® gas appliances use high tech blowers
to push heated air farther into the room. It is not
unusual for the fan to make a "whirring" soundwhen ON. This sound will increase or decreasein volume depending on the speed setting ofyour fan speed control.
Burner Tray:
The burner tray is positioned directly under theburner tube(s) and logs and is made of a different gauge material from the rest of the firebox
and body. Therefore, the varying thicknesses ofsteel will expand and contract at slightly different
rates which can cause "ticking" and "cracking"sounds. You should also be aware that as there
are temperature changes within the unit thesesounds will likely re-occur. Again, this is normal
for steel fireboxes.
Blower Thermodisc:
When this thermally activated switch turns ON
it will create a small "clicking" sound. This is theswitch contacts closing and is normal.
Pilot Flame:
While the pilot flame is on it can make a veryslight "whisper" sound.
Gas Control Valve:
As the gas control valve turns ON and OFF, adull clicking sound may be audible, this is normal
operation of a gas regulator or valve.
Unit Body/Firebox:
Different types and thicknesses of steel will
expand and contract at different rates resulting
in some "cracking" and "ticking" sounds will beheard throughout the cycling process.

MAINTENANCE
INSTRUCTIONS
1) Always turn off the valve before cleaning.
For relighting, refer to lighting instructions.
Keep the burner and control compartment
clean by brushing and vacuuming at least
once a year. When cleaning the logs, use asoft clean paint brush as the logs are fragileand easily damaged.

2) Clean glass (never when unit is hot), appliance, and door with a damp cloth. Neveruse an abrasive cleaner.
3) The heater is finished in a porcelain finish orwith a heat resistant paint and should only
be refinished with heat resistant paint (notwith wall paint).
Never use an abrasive cleaner on the porcelain finish as it may scratch the surface.
4) Make a periodic check of burner for proper
position and condition. Visually check theflame of the burner periodically, making surethe flames are steady; not lifting or floating.
If there is a problem, call a qualified service
person.
5) Caution: Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing controls. Wiring
errors can cause improper and dangerous operation.

CAUTION: ANY SAFETY SCREEN
OR GUARD REMOVED FORSERVICING AN APPLIANCE
MUST BE REPLACED PRIOR TO
OPERATING THE APPLIANCE.
CLOTHING OR OTHER FLAMMABLE MATERIAL SHOULD NOT
BE PLACED ON OR NEAR THE
APPLIANCE.
8) Each time the appliance is lit, it may cause
condensation and fog the glass. Thiscondensation and fog is normal and will
disappear in a few minutes as the glass
heats up.
Never operate the appliance without theglass properly secured in place.

6) The appliance and venting system must be
inspected before use, and at least annually,
by a qualified field service person, to ensurethat the flow of combustion and ventilation
air is not obstructed.

9) Periodically check the pilot flames. Correct
flame pattern has three strong blue flames: 1
flowing around the thermopile and 1 aroundthe thermocouple, and 1 flowing across therear of the burner (it does not have to be
touching the burner).

During the annual service call, the burnershould be removed from the burner tray
and cleaned. Replace the embers but do
not block the pilot.

Note: If you have an incorrect flame pattern, contact your Hampton® dealer
for further instructions.

7) Keep the area near the appliance clear andfree from combustible materials, gasoline,
and other flammable vapours and liquids.

WARNING: CHILDREN AND
ADULTS SHOULD BE ALERTEDTO THE HAZARDS OF HIGH
SURFACE TEMPERATURE ANDSHOULD STAY AWAY TO AVOIDBURNS OR CLOTHING IGNITION.
YOUNG CHILDREN SHOULD
BE CAREFULLY SUPERVISEDWHEN THEY ARE IN THE SAMEROOM AS THE APPLIANCE.

MAINTENANCE
GENERAL VENTMAINTENANCE

1) Lift off the Cast Top.
5) Lift the Glass Front Assembly up.
6) a) Remove the glass and replace with the
new glass.

Conduct an inspection of the venting systemsemi-annually. Recommended areas to inspect
as follows:b) Remove logs and replace the newer
logs.

1) Check the Venting System for corrosion inareas that are exposed to the elements.
These will appear as rust spots or streaks,
and in extreme cases, holes. These components should be replaced immediately.
2) Remove the Cap, and shine a flashlightdown the Vent. Remove any bird nests, orother foreign material.
3) Check for evidences of excessive condensation, such as water droplets forming in the
inner liner, and subsequently dripping out thejoints, Continuous condensation can cause
corrosion of caps, pipe, and fittings. It may
be caused by having excessive lateral runs,
too many elbows, and exterior portions of thesystem being exposed to cold weather.
4) Inspect joints, to verify that no pipe sections
or fittings have been disturbed, and consequently loosened. Also check mechanicalsupports such as Wall Straps, or plumbers'
tape for rigidity.

7) Reinstall the door and Cast Front and Top.
