C 85-340 Introduction - Installation & Operation Instructions │ Caprice
Direct Vent Application
Draft Settings (Direct Vent) - Due to the design of the balanced flue system, the Caprice
will operate at a positive draft pressure and a positive over fire pressure at all times. It is
designed to operate with a maximum stack draft of 0.25” w.c. and a maximum over fire draft of 0.33” w.c. when
little or no wind is present. In extreme wind conditions, the maximum stack draft is 0.35” w.c. and the maximum
over fire draft is 0.45” w.c. Due to installation and equipment variations, recommended air settings are a guideline
and will require alteration. See Tables 2-3 and 2-4.
Insertion Depth (Direct Vent) - See General Notes section in Tables 2-3 and 2-4.
