OUTSIDE AIR KIT INSTALLATION:
20) OUTSIDE AIR VENT
– If the
fireplace is located against
an exterior wall (FIG 20.1),
use a hole saw to cut a hole
completely through the ex‐
terior wall. Use the layout
charts (Pages 10‐11) to make
sure that the Adobelite Kiva
Frame will cover the hole and Outside Air Vent. The center of the hole should be located about 8” from the
bottom of the wall. If the fireplace is not located on an exterior wall, the outside air can be brought down
from the roof or chimney chase (FIG 20.2). Cut a 4” hole located on a vertical face of the chimney chase and
attach the Outside Air Vent.
WARNING:
FOR PROPER OPERATION THIS FIREPLACE REQUIRES THE OUTSIDE AIR KIT TO BE INSTALLED.
The Outside Air Kit is used to
provide outside combustion air
to the firebox, therefore not
using air from the interior of the
house, as well as cooling the gas
control system.
