FIELD DIRECT VENT SYSTEM
Model: FDVS
The Field Direct Vent System (FDVS) is a non-powered positive pressure side wall vent termination system for use only
with specifically listed oil fired appliances. The system provides an outlet for exhaust gases and an intake for combustion
air in a single concentric terminal. The FDVS termination is designed to direct the hot exhaust gases away from the
structure using the static pressure generated by a special oil burner. All of the internal parts in contact with the flue gases
are made from corrosion resistant 316L stainless steel. The FDVS, with its built-in combustion air tee, allows connecting
standard galvanized pipe from the FDVS termination to the air intake of a special oil burner or by use of a Field Controls
Airboot, depending on the model of the oil burner.
