chimney connection

Chimney installation must conform to both national and local code requirements. The chimney must be lined with
one 3" (76mm) diameter liner for intake and one 3" (76mm) diameter liner for exhaust. The minimum and maximum
vent lengths are 10' (3m) and 45' (14m) respectively. Recommended kits come in 4 lengths:
2x 3" (51-76mm) DOUBLE PLY ALUMINUM LINER-INLET AND EXHAUST:
While the liners must be continuous from the appliance to the chimney cap, to achieve the needed length, they may
be coupled, using an approved coupler.
We recommend that exhaust vents that pass through unheated
spaces, such as tall exterior chimneys, be wrapped in a protective
sleeve to minimize condensation and reverse fl ow symptoms. See
"troubleshooting" section for details.
This appliance is approved for use with a 3" (76mm) exhaust and air
intake.
A. OUTSIDE: Slip the one end of a liner a minimum of 2"
(51mm) over the sleeve of the air terminal. Secure using
3 screws. Then seal the joint and screw heads with high
temperature sealant. Repeat with the other liner.
note:
We recommend that the other end of the exhaust liner be marked to eliminate the exhaust liner being
connected to the intake collar at the appliance.
B. Gently stretch the liners to the
required lengths and insert into the
chimney. Trim and fi t the fl ashing
plate to suit the chimney termination.
Place the air terminal onto the top of
the chimney. Make weather tight by
sealing with caulking (not supplied).
Fasten to the chimney with screws
and plugs (not supplied).
C. INSIDE: Remove the securing screw
from the front of the vent mounting
assembly. Slide the vent mount
assembly from the track. Route the
fl ex liners through the slider. Attach
and secure the liners to the vent
mounting plate, ensuring that the
marked exhaust liner is attached to
the exhaust collar.
note:
Prior to sliding the appliance into place, high
temperature-rated insulation should be
packed around the linear in the damper area
to prevent air fl ow from entering the chimney
from the home. Not doing so will have a
negative impact on the effi ciency of the
appliance.
D. The appliance may now be pushed into the opening and the mounting plate assembly slid back into
the track, and the securing screw started. Once the appliance is in its fi nal position, tighten the securing
screw until the slider makes contact with the front stop.
