Reduced Vertical Installation
(Available with Linear LDVPV47 Power Vent
It is possible to reduce vertical vent runs from 5"/8" venting to 4"/7"
venting. Reduced vertical venting may only be used when the Linear
(In-line) Power Vent is required. This is commonly due to longer than
normal vent runs, or unusually long horizontal Vent runs.

Installing The Horizontal &
Vertical Exterior Power Vent

away from the gas fireplace and/or if the vent run is beyond the scope
of this document, or the specifications recommend vent augmenta-
tion. There are four 4/7 Power Vent models available. These Power
Vents are required for Superior venting, safe operation & years of

Finishing Around the Fireplace

Combustible mantels and mouldings may be safely installed over the
top and on the front of the fireplace provided that they do not project
beyond shaded area shown in Figure 24. Side wall clearances are 3".
Combustible surrounds may be installed with 3" clearance to the side
of the fireplace as shown in Figure 25.

Fireplace Facing

When selecting the finish material for your fireplace, it is important to
remember the following: THE OPENING MUST NOT BE OBSTRUCTED
IN ANY WAY - to do so restricts the air supply for the control
compartments and heat exchanger it also prevents access for
servicing controls.
The face of the fireplace may be painted to match the room decor,
provided you use a heat-resistant paint. Decorative facing must not
extend past the fireplace opening at all, because it will interfere with
the access to retainers for removal of glass door.
WARNING!
When covering the upper metal portion of the fireplace, up to
6" (as shown, Fig.24 & Fig.25) with a non-combustible material
Please Note: The decorative facing materials may be subject to
temperatures in excess of 250° F. This should be considered
when selecting facing materials.

WARNING!
We recommend careful consideration be given to the effects of
elevated mantel temperatures which may be in excess of product
design, for example: candles, plastic or pictures. This can cause
melting, deformation, discoloration or premature failure of T.V.
and radio components.
