Caution: The distance from floor level to the centerline of the vent cap is based on Simpson DuraVent GS
components. If using vent components of another brand, do not assume that the measurement given here is
applicable. Verify the distance to the centerline of vent cap by measuring the components you are using.
Note: For every 1” this fireplace is raised off the floor, the non-combustible hearth protection pad may be
reduced by 2”. If this fireplace is raised more than 6” off the floor, no hearth protection pad is required.
Note: Consult the R-Value Table for reference.
