Air Intake Installation
This fireplace requires an air intake to supply combustion air to the fireplace.
The fireplace includes 10' of 3" diameter duct, hood with screen, and two (2) hose clamps.
NOTE: The maximum air intake length is 10' with 3" duct. If you use 4" diameter duct the length may
be increased to 20' (use 3" to 4" increasers at the fireplace and hood), from 20-30' increase to 5"
diameter duct. The maximum bends for the duct is 540° (six 90° bends).
Determine a location for the intake hood.
-- Hood must be positioned so it does not become blocked by snow or debris.
-- Intake air may be drawn from a ventilated crawl space (check with local jurisdiction for
requirements in your area).
-- Do not draw air from an enclosed space ( such as a garage or un-ventilated crawl space).
-- Certain localities may require the air intake termination to be located at a point lower than the
firebox opening. Consult your local jurisdiction for details.
The fireplace is shipped with the intake on the right side. The air intake may be redirected to the left,
back (either side), or bottom of the fireplace. To switch intake location, remove the cover plate from
the desired location, and swap it with the air intake (both are held in place with four screws).
