Prefabricated Fireplace Vent Procedure

1.  Measure height of the chimney to fireplace 

opening.  Determine if both the intake and 

exhaust will be extended to the top of the 

chimney.

2.  Cut the appropriate lengths of flex for both the 

intake and exhaust.

3.  

If the intake flex will be attached to the chimney 

termination kit:

 Attach the appropriate ends of 

the flex to the chimney termination kit. 

CAUTION: AVOID CROSS-VENTING THE FLEX 

PIPE. Label the end of the exhaust pipe to ease 

identification inside the house.

4.  Drop the liners down the chimney from the top 

and rest the termination kit atop the chimney.

5.  Seal the chimney termination kit to the top of the 

chimney pipe with high temperature sealant.

6.  Secure the appropriate DIRECT VENT CAP to the 

termination kit.

7.  Inside the fireplace, fully extend the flex duct 

and cut off any excess so that the liners extend 

approximately 15” from the floor of the fireplace.

8. 

 If the intake flex is NOT attached to the chimney 

termination kit:  See VENT NOTICE on page 12.

  A. It is necessary to install a minimum 6 foot 

length of flex pipe into the flue for the intake air. 

  B.  A METAL damper block off plate must be 

constructed and installed in the damper area to 

completely seal off the flue from the room.  Cut 

holes for both the intake and exhaust liners in the 

block off plate.

  C.  A direct vent cap is still required to allow fresh 

air into the chimney flue and ultimately into the 

intake flex and insert.

  D.  Attach the Fireplace Conversion Notice to the 

back of the fireplace if appropriate.

9.  Backer Plates or the Cast Iron Overlay panel must 

not block or seal any ventilation openings on the 

prefabricated fireplace.

WARNING: FAILURE TO POSITION THE PARTS IN 

ACCORDANCE WITH THESE DIAGRAMS OR FAILURE TO 

USE ONLY PARTS SPECIFICALLY APPROVED WITH THIS 

APPLIANCE MAY RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE OR 

PERSONAL INJURY.

6.3  Vent Connection

Wear Safety Gloves!

Test fit the firebox in its final position to confirm it is 

level and plumb before connection to the vent system. 

A leveling bolt is located at each corner in the base of 

the firebox to allow a maximum 1/2” adjustment for 

hearth irregularities. Front bolts are accessible in each 

side compartment through the fireplace front. Tip 

the firebox forward to adjust the rear bolts out of the 

base.

1.  Refer to fig. 6.3. Remove the Lock Screw from the 

Vent Adaptor Panel and detach the panel from the 

firebox. Retain the screw for reinstallation.

2.  Attach the ends of the flex liners to the appropriate 

collars on the Vent Panel and secure each with 

screws or duct clamps.  Sealant is unnecessary. 

3.  Position the firebox under the vent collar panel and 

use the Latch Tool to engage the panel with the 

associated pins on the firebox Vent Manifold. 

4.  Reinstall the Lock Screw to secure the adaptor 

panel to the firebox.

5.  Push the insert firebox fully into the final position

.  

Do not install the Backer Plate or Overlay Frame 

until all other assembly and system checks are 

completed.
