pipe and combustion gases are exhausted through the inner pipe. If
the glass door assembly and venting pipe are not properly seated,
connected and sealed, carbon monoxide leakage (spillage) can occur.
Carbon Monoxide Poisoning: Early signs of carbon monoxide poison-
ing resemble the flu, with headaches, dizziness or nausea. If you have
these signs, the fireplace may not be working properly. Get fresh air
at once! Have fireplace serviced. Some people are more affected by
carbon monoxide than others. These include pregnant women, people
with heart or lung disease or anemia, those under the influence of
alcohol and those at high altitudes.
Natural and Propane/LP Gas: Natural and propane/LP gas are odor-
less. An odor-making agent is added to the gas. The odor helps you
detect a gas leak. However, the odor added to the gas can fade. Gas
may be present even though no odor exists.

KEEP CLEAR OF ALL OBSTRUCTIONS.
PRODUCT FEATURES
These are a few facts that can help you understand and enjoy your
direct-vent fireplace:
The venting system may be routed to the outside of your home in
several ways. It may vent through the roof (vertical) or it may vent
to an outside/exterior wall (horizontal). The vent pipe installation is
very important to allow for proper operation. You must follow the
venting instructions very carefully for either vertical or horizontal
applications.
This fireplace may be installed in any room of your house provided
all local codes and these installation instructions are followed.
Each time you turn on your fireplace, you may notice some amount
of condensation on the inside of the fireplace glass. This is normal
and will disappear after 10-20 minutes of operation.
• Your direct-vent gas fireplace system (fireplace and venting) is a
balanced and sealed gas operating unit. It requires approximately
10-20 minutes of operating time before the flame pattern stabilizes.
SuperiorFireplaces.us.com126718-01N 9
PRE-INSTALLATION
LOCATION AND SPACE REQUIREMENTS
Determine the safest and most efficient location for your direct-vent
fireplace. Make sure that rafters and wall studs are not in the way
of the venting system. Choose a location where the heat output is
not affected by drafts, air conditioning ducts, windows or doors. Be
aware of all restrictions and precautions before deciding the exact
location for your fireplace and termination cap.
When deciding the location of your fireplace, follow these rules:
• Do not connect this fireplace venting to a chimney flue serving a
separate solid-fuel burning fireplace or appliance.
Due to high temperatures, do not locate this fireplace in high traffic
areas, windy or drafty areas or near furniture or draperies.
Proper clearances must be maintained.
If your fireplace is to be installed directly on carpeting, vinyl tile or any
combustible material other than wood, it must be installed on a metal
or wood panel extending the full width and depth of the fireplace (see
Figure 6, Page 11).
If standoff spacers are attached to your fireplace, these spacers
can be placed directly against wall or framing material. See framing
details, Page 10.
When locating termination cap, it is important to observe the
minimum clearances shown in Figure 7, Page 12.
Do not recess termination cap into a wall or siding.
You may paint the termination cap with 450º F (232º C) heat-
resistant paint to coordinate with the exterior finish.
There must not be any obstruction such as bushes, garden sheds,
fences, decks or utility buildings within 24" from the front of the
termination cap and the front of outside air vent.
Do not locate termination cap and outside air vent where excessive
snow or ice build up may occur. Be sure to clear vent termination
area after snow falls to prevent accidental blockage of venting
system. When using snow blowers, do not direct snow towards
vent termination area.
CLEARANCES
Minimum clearances to combustibles for the fireplace are as follows:
*Back and sides 1" (26 mm)
Perpendicular walls 8" (204 mm)
Floor (From bottom of Fireplace) 0" (0 mm)
Ceiling (From bottom of Fireplace) 63" (1601 mm)
Top of Enclosure
(From bottom of Fireplace) 63" (1601 mm)
Top of Standoffs 0" (0 mm)
Vent 1" (26 mm)
(See venting instructions for specific venting clearances.)
* For back and sides of fireplace, do not pack with insulation or other
materials.
Hearth Extension
A hearth extension is not required with this fireplace. Any hearth
extension used is for appearance only and does not have to conform
to standard hearth extension installation requirements.
NOTICE: This fireplace is intended for use as supple-
mental heat. Use this fireplace along with your primary
heating system. Do not install this fireplace as your
primary heat source. If you have a central heating
system, you may run system’s circulating blower
while using fireplace. This will help circulate the heat
throughout the house.
FRAMING AND FINISHING
Choose framing application accordingly. Figure 2, Page 10 shows
typical one sided framing. Figure 3, Page 10 shows framing for
see-thru installation. NOTE: Kits F2312 and F2313 are required
for see-thru application (See upgrading DRL4543 to indoor/outdoor
see-thru application, Page 31).
All minimum clearances must be met. Vent pipe needs to maintain
1" clearance. Steel framing may be necessary or wood studs may be
notched. Concrete board is provided for facing around the fireplace
as shown in Figure 4, Page 10.
If you are using a separate combustible mantel piece, refer to Figure
5, Page 10 for proper installation height. You can install noncom-
bustible mantels at any height above the fireplace.
NOTE: To avoid heat-related finish damage, we recommend the
use of high temperature paint (rated 175° F or higher) on the
underside of the mantel.

VENTING INSTALLATION
NOTICE: Read these instructions completely before
attempting installation.
These models are tested and approved for use with an IHP (direct-
vent) pipe components and terminations.
The venting system must terminate on the outside of the structure and
can not be attached to a chimney or flue system serving a separate
solid fuel or gas burning appliance. A direct-vent appliance must
have its own venting system. DO NOT common vent this appliance.
These models are approved to be vented either horizontally through
an outside wall or vertically through a roof or chase enclosure using
the following guidelines:
• When venting system terminates horizontally on an outside wall,
you may install a standoff if the termination cap is to be installed
directly on a combustible finish such as vinyl, wood, stucco, etc.
Never run the vent downward as this may cause excessive tem-
peratures which could cause a fire.
Vent pipe air space clearances to combustibles are 1" on all sides
except on the horizontal sections, which requires 2" clearance
from the top of the pipe. Where the termination cap penetrates a
combustible wall, 1" air space clearance is required.
Have fireplace and selected vent components on hand to help
determine the exact measurements when elbowing or offsetting.
Always use wall firestops when penetrating walls and firestops
when penetrating ceilings or attic spaces.
For installation of fireplace at elevations of 4000 feet or greater,
pay special attention to venting requirement recommendations.
WARNING: Read all instructions completely and
thoroughly before attempting installation. Failure to
do so could result in serious injury, property damage
or loss of life.
NOTICE: Failure to follow these instructions will void the
warranty.
NOTICE: Do not seal termination cap to vent pipe. Cap
must be removable for vent inspection and mainte-
nance.
WARNING: This gas fireplace and vent assembly
must be vented directly to the outside. The venting
system must NEVER be attached to a chimney serving
a separate solid fuel burning appliance. Each direct-
vent gas appliance must use a separate vent system.
Do not use common vent systems.
WARNING: Vent pipe air space clearances to com-
bustibles are 1" on all sides except on the horizontal
sections, which require 2" clearances from the top
of the pipe. Where the termination cap penetrates a
combustible wall, 1" air space clearance is required.
INSTALLATION PRECAUTIONS
Wear gloves and safety glasses for protection
Use extreme caution when using ladders or when on roof tops
Be aware of electrical wiring locations in walls and ceilings
The following actions will void the warranty on your venting system:
Installation of any damaged venting component
Unauthorized modification of the venting system (Do not cut or alter
vent components)
Installation of any component part not manufactured or approved
by IHP
Installation other than as instructed by these instructions
SuperiorFireplaces.us.com 126718-01N14
VENTING INSTALLATION Continued
INSTALLATION PLANNING
There are two basic types of direct-vent installation:
Horizontal Termination
Vertical Termination
Installing the Horizontal Termination Vent System
These instructions should be used as a guideline and do not supersede local codes in any way. Install venting according to local codes,
these instructions, the current National Fuel Gas Code (ANSI-Z223.1) in the USA or the current standards of CAN/CGA-B149.1 in Canada.
Ensure clearances are in accordance with local installation codes and the requirements of the gas supplier.
Horizontal vent systems terminate through an outside wall. Building Codes limit or prohibit terminating in specific areas (Figure 7, Page 12).
1. Analyze the vent route and determine the number of vent
sections and elbows required—Plan the venting so that a
joint does not occur in the ceiling or roof joists. Maintain
the minimum clearances for combustibles (Page 9).
2. Frame the exterior wall opening—Locate the center of the
vent outlet on the exterior wall. Cut and/ or frame an open-
ing, 10 1/2 x 12 1/8” (267 x 308 mm) inside dimensions,
about this center.
3. Frame the ceiling opening—If the vertical route is to pen-
etrate a ceiling, use plumb line to locate the center above
the fireplace. Cut and/or frame an opening, 10 1/2 x 10
1/2” (267 x 267 mm) inside dimensions, about this center
(Figure 17, Page 19).
4. Attach the vent components to the fireplace—See Con-
necting the vent pipe on Page 17.
5. Attach the vent components to each other—See Connecting
the vent pipe on Page 17.
6. Install the firestop/spacer at the ceiling—When using Rigid
Pipe, use SV4.5VF firestop/spacer at ceiling joists. If there
is living space above the ceiling level, the firestop/spacer
must be installed on the bottom side of the ceiling.
1. If attic space is above the ceiling, the firestop/spacer must
be installed on the top side of the joist. Route the vent sec-
tions through the framed opening and secure the firestop/
spacer with 8d nails or other appropriate fasteners at each
corner. Maintain 1” (26 mm) clearance to combustibles,
framing members, and attic or ceiling insulation when run-
ning vertical chimney sections.
2. Support fireplace vent outlet with field provided support
straps (Plumber’s tape)—Attach the straps to the vent pipe
and secure to the framing members with nails or screws
(Figure 8).
3. Change vent direction—At transition from or to a horizon-
tal/inclined run, install SV4.5E45 or SV4.5E90 elbows in
the same manner as the straight vent sections. The elbows
feature a twist section to allow them to be routed about
the center axis of their initial collar section to align with
the required direction of the next vent run element. Twist
elbow sections in a clockwise direction only so as to avoid
the possibility of unlocking any of the previously connected
vent sections (Figure 13, Page 17).

VENTING INSTALLATION Continued
1. Continue installation of horizontal/inclined sections
Continue with the installation of the straight vent sections
in horizontal/inclined run. Install support straps every
5 ft. (1.52 m) along horizontal/inclined vent runs using
conventional plumber’s tape (Figure 8, Page 14). Maintain
the horizontal/inclined run in a straight (no dips), slightly
elevated plane. The recommended incline is approximately
1/4” per 1 ft (20 mm per 1 m) horizontal, in a direction
away from the fireplace. Smaller rise per foot run ratios are
acceptable all the way to at or near level. Use a carpenter’s
level to measure from a constant surface and adjust the sup-
port straps as necessary. Maintain the required clearances
to combustibles (Page 9).
2. Assemble the vent run to the exterior wall—If not previ-
ously measured, locate the center of the vent at the exterior
wall. Prepare the opening. Assemble the vent system until
the terminus of the last section is within 7” (178 mm) to
11-1/4” (286 mm) inboard of the exterior surface to which
the SV4.5 HT termination is to be attached (Figure 9). If the
terminus of the last section is not within this distance, use
the telescopic vent section SV4.5LA, as the last vent section.
Table 1, Page 16 lists the additional venting components
needed (in addition to the termination and adaptor) for a
range of wall thicknesses.
3. Attach the termination adaptor—Attach the adaptor
(SV4.5RCH, provided with the termination) to the vent sec-
tion or telescoping vent section, elbow or fireplace collar
(Figure 9).
4. Install the firestop/spacer at the exterior wall—When us-
ing the square termination, install SV4.5HF Firestop/Spacer
over the opening at the exterior side of the framing, long
side up, with the 3” spacer clearance at the top (Figure 9)
and nail into place.
NOTE: The firestop/spacer may also be installed over the
opening at the interior side of the framing.
1. Install the termination (SV4.5HTSS)—From outside the
exterior wall, slide the collars of the termination onto the
adaptor (the outer over the outer and the inner inside the
inner) until the termination seats against the exterior wall
surface to which it will be attached. Orient the housing of
the termination with the arrow pointed upwards. Secure the
termination to the exterior wall. The horizontal termination
must not be recessed into the exterior wall or siding by more
than the 1-1/4” (32 mm) (Figure 10, Page 16).
NOTE: The vent termination is hot while in operation and for
a period of time following the use of the fireplace. To pre-
vent contact with hot surfaces, use a horizontal termination
guard; available for purchase at your local dealer.
The horizontal terminations have been designed to perform
in a wide range of weather conditions. Our terminations meet
or exceed industry standards.
When selecting the locations of your horizontal terminations,
do not place the termination where water from eaves and ad-
joining rooflines may create a heavy flow of cascading water
onto the termination cap. If the cap must be placed where the
possibility of cascading water exists, it is the responsibility of
the builder to direct the water away from the termination cap
by using gutters or other means.
Take care to carefully follow the installation instructions for
the termination, including the use of silicone caulking where
required.

VENTING INSTALLATION Continued
Connecting the vent pipe
Direct-vent system components are unitized concentric pipe
components featuring positive twist lock connections (Figure 11
and Figure 12). All of the fireplaces covered in this document are
fitted with collars having locking inclined channels. The dimpled
end of the vent components fit over the fireplace/vent collar to
create the positive twist lock connection.
1. Align the dimpled end over the collar, adjusting the radial
alignment until the four (4) locking dimples are aligned
with the inlet of the four (4) inclined channels on the collar
(Figure 11).
1. Push the vent component against the collar until it fully
engages, then twist the component clockwise, running the
dimples down and along the incline channels until they seat
at the end of the channels.
NOTE: The unitized design of the Rigid Pipe components will
engage and seal both the inner and outer vent pipe.
2. If desired, a #6 x 1/2” screw can be used at the joint, but
is not required as the pipe will securely lock when twisted
(Figure 12).

Figure 13 - Elbow Dimensions
Vent elbows.
Vent elbows are available in 90° and 45° configurations. Refer
to Figure 13 for the SV4.5E45 and SV4.5E90 elbow dimensions.
The elbows feature a twist section to allow them to be routed
about the center axis of their initial collar section to align with
the required direction of the next vent run element.
1. Rotate the elbow in a clockwise direction (to avoid the pos-
sibility of unlocking any of the previously connected vent
sections) for proper alignment (Figure 13). See Connecting

Install the Vertical Termination Vent System
These instructions should be used as a guideline and do not super-
sede local codes in any way. Install venting according to local codes,
these instructions, the current National Fuel Gas Code (ANSI-Z223.1)
in the USA or the current standards of CAN/CGA-B149.1 in Canada.
Ensure clearances are in accordance with local installation codes and
the requirements of the gas supplier.
Vertical vent systems terminate through the roof. The minimum
vent height above the roof and/or adjacent walls is specified in ANSI
Z223.1 (In Canada, the current CAN/CGA-B149.1 installation code)
by major building codes.
Always consult your local codes for specific requirements. A general
guide to follow is the gas vent rule (see Figure 22, Page 21).
The following figures and their associated vertical vent tables illus-
trate the various configurations that are possible for use with these
fireplaces.
Vertical (Straight) Installation
1. Determine the number of straight vent sections required.
See Effective Vent Length on Table 2, Page 16 for more
information. Plan the vent lengths so that a joint does not
occur at the intersection of ceiling or roof joists.
Vertical (Offset) Installation
1. Analyze the vent route and determine the number of vent
sections and elbows required—See Effective Vent Length
on Table 2, Page 14 for more information. Plan the venting
so that a joint does not occur in the ceiling or roof joists. Al-
low for elbows (Figure 13, Page 17). Maintain the minimum
clearances for combustibles (Page 9).
2. Frame the ceiling opening—Use a plumb line from the ceil-
ing above the fireplace to locate the center of the vertical run.
Cut and/or frame an opening, 10 1/2 x 10 1/2” (267 x 267
mm) inside dimensions, about this center mark (Figure 17).

1. Attach the vent components to the fireplace—See Con-
necting the vent pipe on Page 17.
2. Attach the vent components to each other—See Connecting
the vent pipe on Page 17.
3. Install firestop/spacer at ceiling—Use SV4.5VF firestop/
spacer at ceiling joists. If there is living space above the
ceiling level, the firestop/ spacer must be installed on the
bottom side of the ceiling. If attic space is above the ceiling,
the firestop/spacer must be installed on the top side of the
joist. Route the vent sections through the framed opening
and secure the firestop/spacer with 8d nails or other appro-
priate fasteners at each corner. Remember to maintain 1” (26
mm) clearance to combustibles, framing members, and attic
or ceiling insulation when running vertical chimney sections.
The gap between the vent pipe and a vertical firestop can be
sealed with non-combustible caulking.
4. Support the vertical vent run sections—Support the vertical
portion of the venting system every 8 ft (2.4 m) above the
fireplace vent outlet. One method of support is by utilizing
field provided support straps (conventional plumber’s tape).
Secure the plumber’s tape to the framing members with nails
or screws. Loop the tape around the vent, securing the ends
of the tape to the framing. If desired, sheet metal screws #6
x 1/2” length may be used to secure the support straps to
the vent pipe (Figure 18, Page 20).

1. Change vent direction of horizontal/inclined run—Install
the SV4.5E45 and SV4.5E90 elbows in the same manner as
the straight vent sections. See Vent elbows on Page 17 for
more information.
2. Continue installation of horizontal/inclined sections—Con-
tinue with the installation of the straight vent sections in
horizontal/inclined run. Install support straps every 5 ft (1.52
m) along horizontal/inclined vent runs using conventional
plumber’s tape. Rise per foot run ratios are acceptable all
the way to level. For best results, maintain the horizontal/
inclined run in a straight (no dips), slightly elevated plane
of approximately 1/4” per 1 ft (20 mm per 1 m). Maintain
the required clearances to combustibles (Page 9).
3. Frame the roof opening—Identify the location for the vent
at the roof. Cut and/or frame opening (Figure 19).

1. Install the roof flashing—Extend the vent sections through
the roof structure. Install the roof flashing over the vent sec-
tion and position such that the vent column rises vertically
(use carpenters level). Nail along perimeter to secure flashing
or adjust roofing to overlap the flashing edges at top and
sides only and trim where necessary. Seal the top and both
sides of the flashing with waterproof caulking.
2. Install the storm collar—Install the storm collar, supplied
with the flashing, over the vent/flashing joint (Figure 20).
Loosen the storm collar screw. Slide collar down until it meets
the top of the flashing. Tighten the adjusting screw. Apply
non-combustible caulking or mastic around the circumfer-
ence of the joint to provide a water tight seal.

Figure 21 - Installing the Vertical Termination
1. Install the vertical termination—The final step involves installation
of the SV4.5CGV-1 vertical termination. Align the termination over the
end of the previously installed section, adjusting the radial alignment
until the four (4) locking dimples of the termination are aligned with
the inlets of the four (4) incline channels of the last vent section. Push
the termination down until it fully engages, then twist the termination
clockwise running the dimples down and along the incline channels
until they seat at the end of the channels. If the vent system extends
more than 5 ft (1.5 m) above the roof flashing, stabilizers may be
necessary. Additional screws may be used at section joints for added
stability. Guide wires or roof support assemblies may be attached
to the joint for additional support on multiple joint configurations.
