GAS SUPPLY REQUIREMENTS CORRECT GAS PRESSURE AND PROPER GAS SUPPLY LINE SIZING IS IMPERATIVE TO THE SUCCESSFUL PERFORMANCE OF YOUR MENDOTA GAS FIREPLACE. BE SURE THE GAS SUPPLIER OR PLUMBER CAREFULLY CHECKS FOR CORRECT GAS PRESSURE AND GAS LINE SIZING WHEN INSTALLING THE FIREPLACE. IT IS CRITICAL TO CAREFULLY CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS WHEN HOOKING UP THE FIREPLACE -- CHECK WITH SOAP & WATER SOLUTION. BE SURE TO INSTALL "APPROVED" FLEX GAS LINE WITH BRASS-TO-BRASS FITTINGS TO PREVENT GAS LEAKS AT CONNECTIONS.
PAGE 8
GAS PRESSURE REQUIREMENTS A MAJOR CAUSE OF OPERATING PROBLEMS WITH GAS APPLIANCES CAN BE IMPROPER GAS PRESSURE! Such problems as changes in flame color or configuration, gas pilot or burner outages, intermittent operation, changes in heat output, excessive burner noise, etc. are nearly always the result of changes in gas pressure or improper gas pressure at the time of the installation.

PAGE 25
REAR FLUE VENTING REQUIREMENTS NOTE: A 9” MAXIMUM HORIZONTAL PIPE SECTION CAN BE USED WHEN VENTING THE DXV35 USING THE REAR VENT OPTION AGAINST A FLAT EXTERIOR WALL or IN AN EXTERIOR CORNER. WARNING MENDOTA RECOMMENDS THE USE OF DURAVENT 5”X8” COAXIAL PIPES AND FITTINGS. DURAVENT COMPONENTS PROVIDE THE MOST FLEXIBILITY SINCE DURAVENT HORIZONTAL TERMINATION CAPS SLIDE FULLY OVER THE 6” OR 9” STRAIGHT PIPE SECTION USED. COMBUSTIBLE MANTEL MUST REMAIN IN THIS TRIANGULAR AREA.
PAGE 26
INSTRUCTIONS FOR HORIZONTAL VENTING AGAINST EXTERIOR WALL Mendota recommends the use of Duravent 5”x8” coaxial pipes and fittings. Duravent components provide the most flexibility since Duravent horizontal termination caps slide fully over the 6” or 9” straight pipe section used. Using Amerivent pipes and components are limiting and will increase the minimum framing depth. A 9” maximum horizontal pipe section is permitted when venting horizontally using the rear vent option against an exterior flat wall.
PAGE 27
WARNING: Only Horizontal Runs are allowed when using the Rear Vent Option. 1. Position fireplace in desired location against an exterior wall. See PG. 8 for guidelines on proper vent cap placement on the exterior of home. Check to determine if wall studs are in the way when venting system is attached. If this is the case, you may want to adjust the fireplace location. 2. Determine the desired floor level for the fireplace.
PAGE 28
CORNER INSTALLATION USING THE REAR VENT OPTION NOTE: The horizontal run of vent pipe must be level or have a ¼" rise for every 1' of run toward the termination. Never allow the vent to run downward. This will cause high temperatures and the possibility of a fire. USING OFFSETS AND RETURNS: A single 45º horizontal elbow is already calculated into the allowable maximum 9” horizontal run.
PAGE 29
WARNING: Only Horizontal Runs are allowed when using the Rear Vent Option. When planning to install the DXV35 Fireplace with the rear vent option in an outside corner, it is recommended that thorough calculations and measurements be made prior to any construction. The diagonal distance desired will determine the exact location on the wall where the Horizontal Termination Cap will be placed relative to the inside corner. 8. Position fireplace in desired location. See PG.
