General Venting Requirements

The fireplace operates using a direct vent system and requires co-axial direct vent pipe. The fireplace must be properly connected to
an approved vent system. Venting is not provided with the fireplace and must be sourced from one of the approved vent manufacturers
mentioned in the table below. Proper installation, use, and maintenance of venting is determined by and can be acquired from the
vent manufacturer.
