Appliance Set-Up

A. Outside Air Kit Installation
A source of air (oxygen) is necessary in order for combustion
to take place. Whatever combustion air is consumed by the
fire must be replaced. Air is replaced via air leakage around
windows and under doors. In homes that have tightly sealed
doors and windows, an outside air source is needed. An optional
Outside Air Kit is available.
Items Needed for Installation (not supplied)
• 4 inch flex aluminum pipe, or if using alternate material,
then it shall be made from durable, non-combustible, heat
resistant material up to 350
length for your installation.
• Phillips head screw driver
• 5/32 Allen Wrench
• Silicone sealant
If Not Installing the Outside Air Kit
1. Swing grille down to expose the two screws. Figure
18.1
2. Remove the two screws and pull the access assembly
away from the appliance.
3. Remove the outside air cover plate A and discard.
4. Re-install the access assembly.
Option One - Outside Air Installation Instructions
1. Remove the outside air cover plate B on outer can and dis-
card. Figure 18.2.
2. Install optional flex adapter to outer can with the same
screws. Do not use plastic wire ties that come with the kit
as they will melt. NOTE: You may need to install the flex
pipe into the firebox first depending on installation. Attach
flex to adapter with at least 2 screws.
3. Ensure existing access hole in fireplace is sufficient to feed
the 4 inch flex.
4. After sliding can into fireplace, feed flex into cut opening to
obtain outside combustion air.
5. Level outer can and install appliance. See page 19.
Option Two - Installation Instructions
1. Remove the outside air cover plate on outer can and dis-
card and reuse the 4 screws
2. Ensure existing access hole in fireplace will not be covered
by the outer can. Existing outside air intake hole may be
under at the rear or side of outer can. Outside air may also
enter down existing chimney chase in some situations.
3. Repeat steps 5 through 9 above with one exception. After
installing the appliance in the outer can, seal the fireplace
opening and trim package with insulation to prevent air leak-
age into the room.
