Termination Location and Vent Information

A. Venting Termination Design
The chimney top must be capped
to prevent rain and/or snow from
entering the chimney.
See Page 13 Figure 4.8, for
information on the optional
Harman® Adjustable Stainless
Steel Intake Extension.
The damper area must be
sealed with a steel plate and it
is recommended that Kaowool,
Mineral wool or an equivalent
non combustible insulation is
used on top of the plate to reduce
the possibility of condensation.
Insulation alone should not be
used to seal the damper opening.
