UltraGlow G36D Zero Clearance Direct Vent Gas Fireplace

6)  The arrow on the vent cap should 

be pointing up. Insure that the 1-1/2" 
clearances to combustible materials 
are maintained (Diagram 4). Install the 
termination cap.

If the Snorkel Termination must be installed 
below grade, i.e. basement application, proper 
drainage must be provided to prevent water 
from entering the Snorkel Termination. Refer 
to Diagram 4. Do not attempt to enclose the 
Snorkel within the wall, or any other type of 
enclosure.

1)  Set the unit in its desired location. Check 

to determine if wall studs or roof rafters are 
in the way when the venting system is at-
tached. If this is the case, you may want to 
adjust the location of the unit. Rough in the 
gas preferably on the right side of the unit 
and the electrical (junction block is on the 
left side) on the left.

2)  Direct Vent pipe and fi ttings are designed 

with special twist-lock connections to con-
nect the venting system to the appliance 
fl ue outlet. A twist-lock appliance adaptor 
is an available option that must be used in 
conjunction with the Simpson Dura-Vent 
Direct Vent GS system. 

3)  Put a bead of silicone inside the outer sec-

tion of the adapter and a bead of Mill Pac 
on the inner collar. Slip the adapter over the 
existing inner and outer fl ue collar and fasten 
to the outer collar only with the 3 supplied 
screws (drilling pilot holes will make this 
easier). Level the fi replace and fasten it to 
the framing using nails or screws through 
the nailing strips.

4)  Assemble the desired combination of pipe 

and elbows to the appliance adaptor and 
twist-lock for a solid connection.

Note:
 a) 

 

Twist-lock 

procedure: 

Four 

indentations, 

located on  the female ends of pipes and 
fi ttings, are designed to  slide straight 
onto the male ends of adjacent pipes 
and fi ttings, by orienting the four pipe 
indentations so they match and slide 
in to the four entry slots on the male 
ends, Diagram 1. Push the pipe sections 
completely  together, then twist-lock 
one section clockwise approximately 
one-quarter turn, until the two sections 
are fully locked. The female locking lugs 
will not be visible from the outside, on 
the Black Pipe or fi ttings. They may be 
located by examining the inside of the 
female ends.   

 b)  Horizontal runs of vent must be 

supported every three feet. Wall straps 
are available for this  purpose.

5)  Mark the wall for a 10" x 10"  square hole. 

The center of the square hole should line 
up with the centerline of the horizontal pipe. 
Cut and frame the 10 inch square 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"(178mm) 
dia. (7-1/2"(191mm) dia. for fl ex) hole is 
acceptable.

Note:
 a)  The horizontal run of vent must be level, 

or 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 temperatures and may 
present the possibility of a fi re.

 

b)  The location of the horizontal vent ter-

mination on an exterior wall must meet 
all local and national building codes, and 
must not be blocked or obstructed.  For 
External Vent Terminal Locations, see 
diagram on page 10.

 

c)  Snorkel Terminations:

 

 

For installations requiring a vertical rise 
on the exterior of the building, 14-inch 
and 36-inch tall Snorkel Terminations 

 

are available, as well 
as the standard Riser 
Vent. Follow the same 
installation procedures 
as used for stand-
ard Horizontal
