These instructions apply to the M&G 
DuraVent DirectVent Pro 4”x6-5/8” 
and 5”x8” systems. This venting 
system, in combination with the gas 
appliance, has been tested and listed 
as a decorative gas appliance system 
or as a direct vent heater system 
by a major testing agency such as 
UL, AGA, CGA, OMNI, or Warnock 
Hersey. Check the manufacturer’s 
rating plate and instruction manual to 
conrm that the M&G DuraVent Direct 
Vent is approved for use on the brand 
name appliance you have selected.
Read all instructions carefully before 
starting the installation. Failure to follow 
these instructions may create a re or 
other safety hazard and will void the 
warranty. 
 Be sure 
to comply with minimum or maximum 
distances of vertical or horizontal 
runs as prescribed in the appliance 
manufacturer’s installation instructions.
• Always maintain required clearances 
(air spaces) to nearby combustibles 
to prevent a re hazard. Do not ll 
air spaces with insulation. Be sure to 
check the appliance manufacturer’s 
installation instructions for minimum 
clearance requirements between 
the outer walls of the vent pipe and 
nearby combustible surfaces. Be 
sure to check the vent termination 
clearance requirements from decks, 
windows, softs, gas regulators, air 
supply inlets, and public walkways, 
as specied in these installation 
instructions and local building codes.
• The gas appliance and vent system 
must be vented directly to the outside 
of the building, and never be attached 
to a chimney serving a separate solid 
fuel or gas-burning appliance. Each 
direct vent gas appliance must use its 
own separate vent system. Common 
vent systems are prohibited.
• Wear gloves and safety glasses for 
protection.
• Exercise extreme caution when 
using ladders or on roof tops.
• Be aware of electrical wiring 
locations in walls and ceilings.
