EM SERIES WOODBURNING FIREPLACE
STEP 12 - Assembling the Chimney Sections.
Continue to add chimney sections through the roof
opening, maintaining at least a 2" air space.
STEP 13 - Installing the Roof Flashing.
Install the roof flashing appropriate to the roof pitch and
install a TR344 terminal cap (round) following the
instructions shipped with these accessories.
STEP 14 - Installing the CAK4.
When installing a CAK4 chimney air kit, follow the
instructions provided with this accessory. Use of a
CAK4 is required in Canada.
STEP 15 - Installing an Outside Combustion Air Kit.
The outside air damper assembly is factory installed on
the left hand side of the firebox assembly. While its
use is optional, it is highly recommended to minimize
the effects of negative pressure within the structure.
Figure 17 illustrates two of many possible methods that
can be used to supply outside air to the fireplace sys-
tem. To complete the outside air system, install the
AK22 Outside Air Kit according to the installation
instructions supplied with the components.

Outside Air Location
NOTE: The outside air kit can terminate at
any level with the exception that it
must terminate at least three feet
below the chimney terminal cap as
shown in Figure 17.

STEP 16 - Completion of Fireplace Enclosure.
Complete the fireplace enclosure, allowing space for
outside air ducts and gas piping if desired. Electrical
wiring should not come in contact with the unit. A min-
imum clearance of 3/4" must be maintained
between the fireplace sides and the enclosure as
well as the fireplace back and the enclosure. See
Figure 4 for framing details.
STEP 17 - Provisions for an Optional Gas Log Set.
Knockouts are provided on both sides of the fireplace
to allow for connection of a certified gas log lighter or a
decorative gas appliance with a maximum input of
100,000 BTU/hr. incorporating an automatic gas shut-
off device and complying with the Standard for
Decorative Gas Appliances for Installation in Vented
Fireplaces, ANSI Z21.60. The decorative gas appli-
ance should be installed in accordance with the
National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1-1980. The side
refractories are designed to allow 1/2" iron pipe to pass
through. Use a non-combustible sealant to seal any
opening between the gas pipe and refractory on the
inside. Repack the insulation removed, to seal around
the gas pipe where it exits the side of the fireplace. A
minimum 1 1/2" air clearance must be provided to
the 1/2" iron pipe. See Figure 18.
