VENTING INSTALLATION     
Sealant is not required to assemble HBDV/DVBH 
fireplace venting. Do not use silicone sealant at 
the flue exhaust connections.
1.  Find the pipe section’s direction label. The 
label arrow shall be pointed away from the fire-
box and toward the termination. Firmly insert 
the initial rigid section/elbow into the firebox 
outer collar. Simpson “GS” and Selkirk “DT” 
outer walls are hemmed and will snap into the 
collar’s tabs. Attach Simpson’s DirectVent Pro 
by fully inserting into the collar and securing 
with self tapping screws. The screws shall only 
penetrate the flue outer wall.
 
Refer to vent manufacturer’s installation 
instructions to properly assemble flue.
