1. MASONRY SIDE PANEL INSTALLATION - Optional
An optional masonry panel kit is available for this insert and includes 1 left panel, 1 right panel and 12 sheet metal screws. These panels
are used when the fireplace is installed in an existing masonry opening and must be installed to the air duct (manifold) before the vent
system is connected.
A. SECURE THE PANELS TO THE AIR DUCT:
IF THE AIR DUCT WILL NOT BE REMOVED, MAKE SURE THE MASONRY SIDE PANELS AND AIR DUCT BACK ARE POSITIONED 'OUTSIDE' THE
FLANGE AT THE BOTTOM OF THE INSERT. See Figure D-1.
NOTE:
If the panels are not placed 'outside' the flange at the bottom, it may
cause a rattling noise when the fan is in operation.
1.
Align the 2 holes in the top and 2 holes in the back of the right side panel to
the holes on the air duct (2 holes on the top / 2 holes on the back).
2.
Secure the panel to the air duct with the self-tapping screws
(2 on top / 2 on back).
3.
Repeat for remaining left side panel.
Note: The shell pieces will be secured to the front later in this manual.
RESTRICTOR INSTALLATION
The restrictor plate included in the fireplace components packet may be installed as either a 'large' or 'small' restrictor, depending on your specific vent-
ing configuration. There are several factors shich can affect proper draft of the vent system and the burner operation of a fireplace. Installing a restrictor
may be necessary to resolve the problem, even though it may not be required under 'normal conditions'.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT INSTALL IF THE VENTING CONFIGURATION IS AT THE MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS!
The restrictor included is sized as the 'large' restrictor as shown below. To reduce the size to the small restrictor, simply bend the section without the
tabs off at the perforation and discard.
Large Restrictor
To install the restrictor, bend the tabs 'up' far enough (approximately 80-degrees) so that when positioned into the exhaust
pipe, will create tension to hold itself in place. Do not overbend the tabs! Slide the restrictor into the exhaust pipe with the
tabs pointing toward you. Access to the exhaust pipe can be gained by removing the nuts securing the exhaust baffle inside
the firebox at the top.
IMPORTANT: REPLACE THE EXHAUST BAFFLE AFTER RESTRICTOR INSTALLATION IS COMPLETE.
