Vent Liner Rough-In; Appliance Preparation - Valor RetroFire RF24DN Installation And Owner's Manual

Direct vent fireplace insert

Table of Contents

Rough-in the two 3" diameter vent liners into existing chimney system being careful not to tear or damage the

liners in the process. It may be easier to install both liners at the same time rather than one at a time. Leave plenty

of liner at the bottom end if the Heater will be connected while on the hearth (see diagram). When connecting the

liner in this manner it is best to leave the top termination until later so the slack liner can be lifted after the insert

is in place (see separate section for top termination). Designate and mark the top and bottom of one liner as

"EXHAUST" to avoid confusion later.

Existing Fireplace

The size of the existing fireplace cavity will affect the method of installation. Smaller fireplaces, particularly factory-

built zero-clearance fireplaces will require the RF24 firebox to be disassembled then reassembled inside the

fireplace. Plan your particular installation accordingly.
