Class A Chimney Conversion Kit
Simpson Duravent provides a conversion kit for those wishing to use an existing wood stove chimney
to vent this direct vent stove. The illustration below gives an overview of this type of installation. See
the instructions included with the kit for details.
! Do not exceed the maximum vertical rise. The restrictor position should be set to the position that
most closely resembles the vent configuration (see "Approved Vent Configurations" for details).
NOTE: because this installation utilizes non-standard vent, the restrictor position may vary. Carefully
monitor the burn characteristics to verify correct restrictor position.
! The conversion kit does not work on interior masonry chimneys.
