prefabricated Fireplace Vent Installation
1. Measure height of the chimney to fireplace open-
ing. Determine if both the intake and exhaust will
be extended to the top of the chimney.
2. Cut the appropriate lengths of flex for both the
intake and exhaust.
3. If the intake flex will be attached to the chimney
termination kit: Attach the appropriate ends of
the flex to the chimney termination kit. Label the
end of the exhaust pipe.
4. Drop the liners down the chimney from the top
and rest the termination kit atop the chimney.
5. Seal the chimney termination kit to the top of the
chimney pipe with high temperature sealant.
6. Secure the appropriate DIRECT VENT CAP to the
termination kit.
7. Inside the fireplace, fully extend the flex and cut
off the excess flex so that the liners hang approxi-
mately 15" from the floor of the fireplace.
8. If the intake flex is NOT attached to the chimney
termination kit: See NOTICE on page 1.
A. It is necessary to install a minimum 6 foot
length of flex pipe into the flue for the intake air.
B. A METAL damper block off plate must be
constructed and installed in the damper area to
completely seal off the flue from the room. Cut
holes for both the intake and exhaust liners in the
block off plate.
C. A direct vent cap is still required to allow fresh
air into the chimney flue and ultimately into the
intake flex and insert.
D. Attach the Fireplace Conversion Notice to the
back of the fireplace if appropriate.
9. Surround panels must not block or seal any venti-
lation openings on the prefabricated fireplace.
Loosen these screws enough to disengage
the tool, then retighten.
Upper Deflector
Figure 8. Remove the Flue Collar tool. Also, remove the
Upper Deflector if a Cast Iron surround is to be installed.

Vent Connection

The Vent Collar Plate, located on top of the cabinet,
is removable to ease connection of the vent liners in
those cases where access within the fireplace is re-
stricted. Whether you are venting through a masonry
chimney or a prefabricated chimney, the flex liner is
connected to the insert in the same way. Use the fol-
lowing procedure.
Wear Safety Gloves!
1. Disengage the Vent Collar tool from the top of the
fireplace cabinet by loosening the two retainer
screws, then sliding the tool over and up as in fig. 8.
2. Remove the retainer screw that attaches the
Collar Plate to the cabinet top and slide the plate
back off of the cabinet. Secure the flex liners to
the appropriate collars on the Vent Collar Plate us-
ing sheet metal screws or hose clamps, as shown
in fig. 9. Confirm that the liners are not cross-
vented.
3. Position the insert, without surround panels,
halfway inside the fireplace and engage the Vent
Collar Plate within the rails on the cabinet top
enough to get it started. Engage one end of the
tool over the tabs on the flue collar plate as in
fig. 9. Use a striking motion to hammer the collar
plate fully forward and secure it to the cabinet
flange using the sheet metal screw previously
removed.
4. Store the Vent Adaptor tool beside the insert
cabinet inside the fireplace for future use when
servicing the unit.
