*Venting Requirements: This unit requires venting pipe with an inner diameter of 4 Inches. Please see the Venting Components section on this page if available for venting pipe that must be used with this unit. Everyone knows that without the proper protection against the effects of rain, sleet, snow, and hail, even the best-constructed vents systems are subject to deterioration and decline. DuraVent has designed a rain cap made of the most durable aluminum that can dispense the strongest defense against rain, snow, and even high-powered gusts of wind. Maintain the reliability and use of your venting system for years to come when you purchase and implement this efficient design. |

Can this termination cap be spray-painted white to match the vinyl siding?
1 Answer
The cap would need to be cleaned with mineral spirits to remove any oils from the manufacturing process. Then you would need to use high-temperature paint rated 1200 to 1500 degrees for the best chance of a long-lasting finish. Please note that this cap requires a vinyl siding shield when installed near the siding. You can see that part here.

When installing on Hardie board, does this need a shield?
1 Answer
No, it would not. It would only require a shield if it was surrounded by combustible siding, such as vinyl or wood.

Can I use this vent on stucco? Will the vent let air in thru the cap and allow enough air to my fireplace?
1 Answer
This cap can be used on stucco. Also, you should use only the components listed for your fireplace. If your fireplace is listed for Dura-vent direct vent 46DVA vent pipe then this will provide enough air.

January 29, 2020
Is there a vent baffle that can be put around the direct horizontal vent to stop black soot from forming on the dwelling wall?
1 Answer
If the exterior wall surface is vinyl siding and no vinyl siding standoff is installed, this would be a potential cause. Another potential cause would be the improper placement of the logs or an improper air shutter adjustment resulting in a dirty burn. If the flame is tall, mostly yellow and lazy with black tipping, the air shutter needs to be moved to a more open position to allow more primary air into the combustion process. This could also be the result of a lack of cleaning or maintenance over time. In any case, no one part will correct this issue without eliminating other potential causes first, so I recommend contacting a local technician for a thorough inspection and diagnosis.

Can the the 46DVA-HC be installed from the outside without pulling the fire place unit out?
1 Answer
The 46DVA-HC is the horizontal termination only, so it works in conjunction with another pipe length of the 46DVA pipe, usually installed through a wall thimble. If a 46DVA pipe is in the appropriate place, yes, this termination can be theoretically installed without disturbing the fireplace.

When installing this termination cap on vinyl siding, do I need a wall thimble or just one wall fire stop?
1 Answer
You will need a wall firestop or thimble (not both), a vinyl siding shield and this termination cap.

from Steamboat, CO asked:
October 10, 2013
Will this cap work with 4 inch inner/ 7 inch outer direct vent flex pipe?
1 Answer
Because this cap has twist lock ends, rather than tapered ends that a flex termination uses, I do not recommend using it with a flexible liner.
