INSTALLATIONVENTING INTRODUCTION
The Horizontal Termination Kit and the Simpson
Dura-Vent Direct Vent venting systems, in combination with the Direct Vent Freestanding Gas Stoves,
H15-NG1, and H15-LP1, have been tested and listed
as direct vent heater systems by Warnock Hersey.

INSTALLATIONPRECAUTIONSSAFETY PRECAUTIONSFOR THE INSTALLER

These venting systems are engineered productsthat have been designed and tested for use with
the H15-NG1, and H15-LP1. 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.

1) Installation of any damaged Rigid Pipe component.

3) Be aware of electrical wiring locations inwalls and ceilings.

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.

2) Unauthorized modification of any Rigid Pipe
System.

Note: These flue pipes must not be
connected to any other appliance.

3) Installation other than as instructed by Simpson
Dura-Vent and FPI Fireplace Products International Ltd.

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.

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

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.

2) Exercise extreme caution when using ladders or on roof tops.

VENT RESTRICTORPOSITIONTo set the Vent restriction as indicated in the
Venting Arrangement diagrams in the "Rigid
Pipe Venting System" section, simply loosen
the screws and push the vent restrictor plate to
the correct position. Tighten the screws. This
will be located inside the firebox.

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. Refer to the "Exterior Vent Terminal
Locations" and "Rigid Pipe Venting Systems"
sections for vent location and clearance
dimensions, and the "Vent Restrictor Position" for the correct positioning.

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 to prevent accidental
blockage of venting system. Whenusing snow blowers, make suresnow is not directed towards venttermination area.

DURA-VENT TERMINATION KIT
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 fromthe diagrams in the "Rigid Pipe Venting Systems" 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
thimble is suitable for 2 x 4 or 2 x 6 wall construc-tion.) Select the amount of vertical rise desired
for "vertical-to-horizontal" type installations.

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 1-1/4 inch. Be sure to checkthe vent termination clearance requirementsfrom decks, windows, soffits, gas regulators, air
supply inlets and public walkways as specified

For multi-storey applications, fire stops are
required at each floor level. If an offset isneeded, additional pipe, elbows and supports
will be required.
Do not exceed the maximum number of elbows.

Note:

Note: These are the minimum pieces required.
Other parts may be required for yourparticular installation. See above for alist of vent parts.
If installing termination on a siding covered wall, avinyl siding standoff or furring strips can be used inorder to ensure that the termination is not recessed
into siding.

B) Wall Thimble (required for combustible walls)
Minimum components for a Dura-Vent Vertical
Termination:D) Dura-Vent Vertical Termination Kit. See above
for pipe lengths.

a) 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 temperaturesand may present the possibility of a fire.
b) The location of the horizontal vent termination on an exterior wall must meet all local
and national 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 rise on theexterior of the building, 14-inch and 36-inch tall
Snorkel Terminations as shown in Diagram 2
are available, as well as the standard Riser
Vent. Follow the same installation procedures
as used for standard Horizontal Termination.
NEVER install the snorkel upside down.

HORIZONTALTERMINATIONS
1) Set the unit in its desired location. Check todetermine if wall studs are in the way when theventing system is attached. If this is the case,
you may want to adjust the location of the unit.

Below Grade Snorkel Installation
If the Snorkel Termination must be installed
below grade, i.e. basement application, proper*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

black outer pipe and 4" dia. inner vent.
3) With the pipe attached to the stove, slide thestove into its correct location, and mark thewall for a 9-1/2" (inside dimensions) roundhole. The center of the round hole should line
up with the centerline of the horizontal pipe, as
shown in diagram 1. Cut and frame the 9-1/2
round hole in the exterior wall where the vent
will be terminated. If the wall being penetrated
is constructed of non-combustible material, i.e.
masonry block or concrete, a 7" diameter holeis acceptable.

local code requirements.
drainage must be provided to prevent waterfrom entering the Snorkel Termination. Do not
attempt to enclose the Snorkel within the wall,or any other type of enclosure.
4) Install wall penetration heat shield in the centerof the 9-1/2" round hole and attach with woodscrews. The four wood screws provided should
be replaced with appropriate fasteners forstucco, brick, concrete, or other 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 3.

INSTALLATIONc) Before connecting the vent pipe to the venttermination, slide the black decorative wall
thimble cover over the vent pipe, then slide theWall Penetration Heat Shield (Part # 946-202)
over the vent pipe. Dia. 3.

Diagram 4
Hint: use the cut end of the 6-5/8" dia. outerpipe at the vent terminal end.

d) Slide the appliance and vent assembly towards
the wall carefully inserting the vent pipe into
the riser vent terminal assembly. It is important that the vent pipe extends into the Riser
Vent Backing Plate a sufficient distance so as
to result in a minimum pipe overlap of 1-1/4
inches. Secure the connection between thevent pipe and the vent cap by attaching thetwo sheet metal strips extending from the Riser
Vent Backing Plate into the outer wall of thevent pipe. Use two aluminum screws provided
to connect the strips to the pipe section. Bendany 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) Slide the decorative wall thimble up to the wallb) Push the pipe sections completely together,
the minimum pipe overlap is 1-1/4". Secure allouter pipe joints by using at least two screws.
Locate the screws at the bottom of the pipe sothat the screw heads are hidden on the final
installation.
Note: For best results and optimum performance with each approved venting system,
it is highly recommended to apply “MillPac” sealant (supplied) to every inner
pipe connection. Failure to do so may
result in drafting or performance issues
not covered under warranty. Silicone (redRTV) is optional.

VERTICALTERMINATIONS
1) Maintain the 1-1/4" clearances (air spaces) to
combustibles when passing through ceilings,
walls, roofs, enclosures, attic rafter, or othernearby combustible surfaces. Do not pack air
spaces with insulation. Check the "Venting Arrangement" section for the maximum verticalrise 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 ceiling to theposition of the appliance flue exit, and mark thelocation where the vent will penetrate the ceiling. Drill a small hole at his point. Next, drop aplumb bob from the roof to the hole previously
drilled in the ceiling, and mark the spot where thevent will penetrate the roof. Determine if ceilingjoists, 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.

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.

METAL CHIMNEY OR
MASONRY CHIMNEY TO
DIRECT
VENT SYSTEMApproved for US Installations Only
The use of an existing chimney as an air intake
is not covered under the ANS 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 vent conversion systems listed below. Follow the appropriate
directions for your installation.

Converting a Factory Built Metal
ChimneyA) Through an existing factory built metal chimney
going through the ceiling: A typical conversionof this type is shown in diagram 1. The conceptof direct vent conversion is to connect an adaptor to an Underwriters Laboratories (UL) listed
4 inch diameter aluminum flex pipe which isthen passed down through the center of theexisting metal chimney system. Three sizesof Top Adaptors are available from Simpson
Dura-Vent. The Retro Connector is attachedto the bottom of the flex pipe. The Top Adaptor
and the Retro Connector are attached to theexisting chimney with sheet metal screws. The
appliance is then connected to the chimney
with appropriate black direct vent pipe and an
adjustable length section.

4) Pass the flex pipe down through the center ofthe chimney system, and center the adaptor
on the top of the chimney pipe. Drill four 1/8"
diameter holes through the adaptor and into
the chimney top. Insure that you are in fact,
drilling into the metal on the chimney. Twistlock the Termination Cap onto the Adaptor.
(Diagram 3 and 4).

1) Remove the existing chimney cap.
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).
Diagram 3

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 themasonry chimney. The 4 inch aluminum liner isconnected 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 andthen connected to the direct vent pipe leading
to the appliance.

5) Pull the flex pipe down through the ceilingsupport box, until it protrudes approximately
3" (76mm). Connect the flex pipe to the Retro
Connector by slipping it into the4-3/4" diameter sleeve on the top side of theConnector. Use 3 sheet metal screws to assemble these two parts.

Prior to installation and connection of the ventsystem to a factory-built or masonry chimney,the chimney must be inspected and thoroughly
cleaned by a qualified service person, such asa certified chimney sweep or home inspection
service.

6) Push the flex pipe back up into the ceiling support box, center the Retro Connector, and attach
it to the support box, or decorative sleeve fordouble wall solid packed pipe, with the sheet
metal screws (supplied). The holes in the Retro
Connector are pre-punched. Diagram 5.

If the appliance shuts off during operation,
contact a qualified service person to determine
if a negative pressure and/or leaky chimney
condition exists. Do not operate the appliance
until the problem is corrected.

3) Connect the end of the flex pipe section to
the underside of the Top Adaptor using 3
sheet metal screws. Diagram 2.

INSTALLATIONCATHEDRAL CEILINGS
Round Support (RDS) &Square Support (SQS)
If your home has a cathedral ceiling (no attic space
between the ceiling and the roof), install the chimney
and support as follows.
1) Situate the chimney in a convenient location asnear as possible to the appliance outlet. Cutand frame a hole in the roof for the support.
The sides of this hole must be vertical with 1
1/4" clearance.
2) Place the support in the opening. Lower it to
the correct height as determined by the tableand diagram below.

4) Assemble the desired lengths of Black Pipe andElbows necessary to reach from the applianceadapter up through the support box and flashing
to proper height as per Dia. 12, local codes.
Ensure that all pipe and elbow connections arein their fully twist lock position.
5) Ensure vent is vertical and secure flashing to theroof 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 theuse 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.

HIGH ELEVATIONThis unit is approved in Canada for altitude to 4500 ft.

Note: If you are using a 6" square support you
may find it difficult to screw it in placebecause it is fairly small inside.

The gas connection is a 3/8" NPT 90o elbow. The
gas line can be rigid pipe or to make installationeasier, use a listed flexible connector and/or copper tubing if allowed by local codes. Since somemunicipalities 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 thecurrent 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 to meetthis 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 appliancemust be disconnected from the piping
system. If test pressures equal to or lessthan 1/2 psig are used then this appliance must be isolated from the piping
system by closing its individual manual
shut-off valve during the testing.

AERATION
ADJUSTMENTGAS PIPE
PRESSURE TESTING

The air shutter can be adjusted by moving the adjusting wire up or down. The wire is accessed throughthe bottom. Open the air shutter for a blue flameor close for a yellower flame. The burner aeration
is factory set but may need adjusting due to either
the local gas supply or altitude.

The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual
shut-off valve during any pressure testing of the gas
supply piping system at test pressures equal to orless than 1/2 psig. (3.45 kPa). Disconnect pipingfrom valve at pressures over 1/2 psig.

Minimum Air Shutter Opening:
3/16"
Natural Gas
1/4"
Propane

The manifold pressure is controlled by a regulator
built into the gas control, and should be checkedat the pressure test point.

CAUTION: Carbon will be produced if air shutter
is closed too much.

Note: To properly check gas pressure, both
inlet and manifold pressures should bechecked using the valve pressure portson the valve.

Note: Any damage due to carboning resulting
from improperly setting the aeration
controls is NOT covered under warranty.
Note: Aeration Adjustment should only be
performed by an authorized FPI Installerat the time of installation or service.

Hampton® H15-1 Direct Vent Freestanding Gas StoveMAINTENANCENORMAL OPERATINGSOUNDS OF GASAPPLIANCES
It is possible that you will hear some sounds fromyour gas appliance. This is perfectly normal dueto the fact that there are various gauges and typesof 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 of yourfan 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 andbody. Therefore, the varying thicknesses of steel
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 these sounds 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 the switch
contacts closing and is normal.
Pilot Flame:
While the pilot flame is on it can make a very slight"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 be heard
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 bybrushing and vacuuming at least once a year.
When cleaning the logs, use a soft clean paintbrush as the logs are fragile and easily damaged.

2) Clean glass (never when unit is hot), appliance,and door with a damp cloth. Never use an
abrasive cleaner.

CLOTHING OR OTHER FLAMMABLE
MATERIAL SHOULD NOT BE PLACEDON OR NEAR THE APPLIANCE.

3) The heater is finished in a porcelain finish orwith a heat resistant paint and should only be
refinished with heat resistant paint (not withwall 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 the flame of
the burner periodically, making sure the flames
are steady; not lifting or floating. If there is aproblem, call a qualified service person.
5) Caution: Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing controls. Wiring errors
can cause improper and dangerous operation.

8)
Each time the appliance is lit, it may cause
condensation and fog the glass. This condensation 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 around thethermocouple, and 1 flowing across the rear of
the burner (it does not have to be touching theburner).

During the annual service call, the burner should
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 and freefrom combustible materials, gasoline, and otherflammable vapours and liquids.

MAINTENANCE
GENERAL VENTMAINTENANCE
Conduct an inspection of the venting systemsemi-annually. Recommended areas to inspect
as follows:
1) Check the Venting System for corrosion in areasthat are exposed to the elements. These willappear as rust spots or streaks, and in extreme
cases, holes. These components should be
replaced immediately.

GLASS REPLACEMENTFAN MAINTENANCE

Your stove is supplied with high temperature, 5mm Neoceram ceramic glass that will withstandthe highest heat that your unit will produce. In theevent that you break your glass by impact, purchase your replacement door from an authorized
Hampton® dealer only, and follow our step-by-step
instructions for replacement.

If your fan requires maintenance or replacement,
access to the fan is through the rear access panelon the back of the unit.

1) Lift off Cast Top.

WARNING:
Electrical Grounding Instructions
This appliance is equipped with athree pronged (grounding) plug foryour protection against shock hazard
and should be plugged directly into
a properly grounded three-prong
receptacle. Do not cut or remove thegrounding prong from this plug.

2) Remove the Cap, and shine a flashlight down
the Vent. Remove any bird nests, or otherforeign material.
3) Check for evidences of excessive condensation, such as water droplets forming in the inner
liner, and subsequently dripping out the joints,
Continuous condensation can cause corrosionof caps, pipe, and fittings. It may be causedby having excessive lateral runs, too many
elbows, and exterior portions of the systembeing exposed to cold weather.
4) Inspect joints, to verify that no pipe sections or
fittings have been disturbed, and consequently
loosened. Also check mechanical supports suchas Wall Straps, or plumbers' tape for rigidity.

IMPORTANT: These fans collect a lot of dust fromwithin your home. Ensure you maintain thesefan motors on a regular basis by vacuumingout the fan squirrel cages, around the motor,
and around the grills on the back of the stove.

IMPORTANT
Disconnect power supply
before servicing

2) Open the 2 latches to remove Glass Front.
Angle out and then lift, same as Cast Front.
3) Remove glass and replace with new glass.

LOG REPLACEMENTThe unit should never be used with broken logs. Turn
off the gas valve and allow the unit to cool before
opening door to carefully remove the logs. The pilot
light generates enough heat to burn someone. If
for any reason a log should need replacement, youmust use the proper replacement log. The positionof these logs must be as shown in the diagram
under Log Installation.
Note: Improper positioning of logs may createcarbon build-up and will alter the unit’s
performance which is not covered underwarranty.

Latches4) Re-install Cast Top.

WARNING: Do not operate appliancewith glass panel removed, cracked
or broken. Replacement of the glass
should be done by a licensed or qualified service person.
