Rough-in the 3" diameter vent liner into existing chimney system being careful not to tear or damage the liner in the

process. Leave plenty of liner at the bottom end if the heater will be connected while on the hearth—see diagram

in Connect Liner to the Firebox section. When connecting the liner in this manner, it is best to leave the top

termination until later so the slack liner can be lifted after the insert is in place.

Existing Fireplace

The size of the existing fireplace cavity will affect the method of installation. Smaller fireplaces, particularly factory-

built zero clearance fireplaces, will require the RF24 firebox to be disassembled and then reassembled inside the

fireplace. Plan your installation accordingly.
