B. On the TOP of the heater
1. Attaching the First Flue Component to the Start-
ing Collars:
To attach the first flue component to the starting collars
on the top of the heater:
• Lock the flue components into place by sliding the
concentric pipe sections with four (4) equally spaced
interior beads into the heater collar or previously in-
stalled component end with four (4) equally spaced
indented sections.
Figure 22. Adding Venting Components
• When the internal beads of each outer pipe line up,
rotate the pipe section clockwise about one quarter
(1/4) turn. The flue pipe is now locked together.
• Slide the ceramic fiber pad over the first flue section
and place it flush to the fireplace. Continue to add
vent components.
WARNING: ENSURE THAT THE HEATER

GASKET SUPPLIED WITH THE HEATER
SEALS BETWEEN THE FIRST FLUE COMPO-
NENT AND THE OUTER HEATER WRAP.
2. Continue Adding Flue Components
To continue adding flue components in accordance with
the pre-planned flue system configuration:
• Ensure that each succeeding flue component is se-
curely fitted and locked into the preceding compo-
nent in the flue system.
For elbows that are changing the flue direction, two
screws minimum should be put in the outer flue at the
joint to prevent the elbow from rotating.
3. Install Support Brackets
For Horizontal Runs - The flue system must be
supported every five (5) feet (1.5m) of horizontal run by
a horizontal pipe support.
To install support brackets for horizontal runs:
• Place the pipe supports around the flue pipe.
• Nail the pipe supports to the framing members.
