Typical Installations

Using the Typical Venting Installation drawings, select the appropriate component parts for your installation.

The inner pipe diameter should match the outlet size of the appliances. For installations that require 4 inch vent and the appliance has a 3 inch outlet, use an increaser adapter 3 inch-4 inch.

Check the appliance manufacturer's installation instructions to confirm which types of vent configurations are permitted (i.e. horizontal, vertical, chimney reline, etc.). Also, check for any venting restrictions such as maximum horizontal run, minimum and maximum vertical rise, maximum offset, etc.

Be fire-safe! Maintain at least the minimum clearances (air space) between the vent pipe and combustibles, as specified in the appliance manufacturer's installation instructions. Use proper support and bracing. Follow local building codes and have your venting system inspected.

All DirectVent Pro components are compatible with DirectVent GS stock, except for the DirectVent Pro Pipe Extensions.
