LDVT Series Direct Vent  Gas Fireplace
10007852
When it is not possible to meet the required vent ter-
minal clearances of 12” (305mm) above grade level a 
snorkel vent kit is recommended.  It allows installation 
depth of down to 7” (178mm) below grade level.  The 7” 
is measured from the center of the horizontal vent pipe 
as it penetrates through the wall.
If venting system is installed below 
ground, we recommend a window well with 
adequate and proper drainage.
Ensure sidewall venting clearances are observed.
If installing a snorkel a minimum 24” (610 mm) vertical 
rise is necessary. The maximum horizontal run with 
the 24” (610 mm) vertical pipe is 36” (914 mm). This 
measurement is taken from the collar of the fireplace 
(or transition elbow) to the face of the exterior wall. 
Refer to the Sidewall Vent Graph for extended 
horizontal run if the vertical rise exceeds 24” (610 mm).
1.  Establish vent hole through the wall. (Fig. 18)
2.  Remove soil to a depth of approximately 16” (406 
mm) below base of snorkel. Install drain pipe. Install 
window well (not supplied). Refill hole with 12” (305 
mm) of coarse gravel leaving a clearance of approxi-
mately 4” (102 mm) below snorkel. (Fig. 26)
3.  Install vent system.  
4.  Ensure a watertight seal is made around the vent 
pipe coming through the wall.
5.  Apply high temperature sealant caulking (supplied) 
around the 4” and 7 “ snorkel collars.
6.  Slide the snorkel into the vent pipes and secure to 
the wall.
7.  Level the soil to maintain a 4” (102 mm) clearance 
below snorkel. (Fig. 26)
Below Grade Installations
Do not back fill around snorkel. A clearance 
of at least 4” (102 mm) must be maintained 
between snorkel and the soil.
If the foundation is recessed, use recess brackets (not 
supplied) for securing lower portion of the snorkel.  
Fasten brackets to wall first, then secure to snorkel 
with self drilling #8 x 1/2 sheet metal screws. It will be 
necessary to extend vent pipes out as far as protruding 
wall face. (Fig. 27)

Step 4
Install the 4” (102 mm) flex vent pipe to the appliance 
collar as described on Page 11. Secure the end with the 
first spring 6³⁄₄” (172 mm) from the flex pipe end to the 
unit.
Step 5
Slide the 7” (178 mm) flex vent pipe over the 4” flex 
vent pipe and secure the 7” collar as described on Page 
11.
Step 6
Bend the flex pipe horizontal so the bottom of the 
horizontal pipe measure 6¹⁄₂” (165mm) from the top of 
the unit immediately after the 90° formation. (Fig. 25) 
Be sure to follow the 1” (25mm) rise in a 24” (610mm) 
horizontal run rule.
Step 7
Install the 4” flex then 7” flex to the termination.
