Ventilation Air From Outdoors
Provide extra fresh air by using ventilation grills or ducts. You must provide two permanent open- ings: one within 12" of the ceiling and one within 12" of the floor. Connect these items directly to the outdoors or spaces open to the outdoors. These spaces include attics and crawl spaces. Follow the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, Section 5.3, Air for Combustion and Ventilation for required size of ventilation grills or ducts.

CAUTION: This fireplace cre- ates warm air currents. These currents move heat to wall sur- faces next to fireplace. Install- ing fireplace next to vinyl or cloth wall coverings or operating heater where impurities (such as, but not limited to, tobacco smoke, aromatic candles, clean- ing fluids, oil or kerosene lamps, etc.) in the air exist, may dis- color walls or cause odors.
