General Information Assembling Vent Pipes

Canadian Installations

The venting system must be installed in accordance
with the current CSA-B149.1 installation code.

USA Installations

The venting system must conform to local codes and/or
the current National Fuel Code ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54.

Only venting components manufactured by CFM
Corporation may be used in Direct Vent systems.

Flex Vent Pipes

Before joining the flex vent pipe to the unit, apply a
bead of high temperature sealant* (provided) to the 4”
pipe exiting the fireplace. Secure flex vent piep in place
with a hose clamp (provided).

*Be sure the flex pipe overlaps at least 1” (25mm) onto
the collars of the fireplace and termination. If the
termination has an internal bead, be sure to overlap
and secure 1” (25mm) past the bead.

* Be sure the venint is actually crushed before pro-
ceeding. Apply a tug to be sure the vent will not slip off
the collars.

Repeat process with 7” flex vent pipe. The same
procedure must be performed on the vent side.
