This optional convection duct kit redistributes the warm air flow away from the fireplace opening to a more desirable

location using natural convection without the use of a fan. The warm air flow would be relocated to a position higher up the

wall. The result is much cooler wall temperatures above the fireplace opening for locating televisions, artwork, etc.
