FAN KIT ASSEMBLY: VCBK3E

A Fan Kit is optional (for Models W36C & IW36C only) with this fireplace. Use of blowers or fans other than manufactured by DESA voids the warranty. Fan is operated by simply pressing the rocker switch in the lower right corner of the fireplace face (see figure 6).

NOTE: Fireplace must be wired to the house electrical system in order for fan to operate. This fan system does not require a wall switch.

Electrical connections are made through the cover on the side of the fireplace illustrated in Figure 7. Use 14 AWG copper wire for all connections. Be certain the fireplace is properly grounded.

CHIMNEY PIPE

The DESA chimney system consists of 12, 18, 24, 36 and 48 inch, snap-lock double-wall pipe segments, planned for maximum adaptability to individual site requirements. Actual lengths gained after fitting overlaps must be taken into consideration (lineal gain) and are given in the following chart:

Figure 8

ASSEMBLING AND INSTALLING THE DOUBLE WALL CHIMNEY SYSTEM

Each double wall chimney section consists of a galvanized outer pipe, a stainless steel inner flue pipe and a wire spacer. The pipe sections must be assembled independently as the chimney is installed. When starting chimney directly to the fireplace, the inner flue pipe section must be installed first with the lanced side up. The outer pipe section can then be installed over the flue pipe section with the hemmed end up.

Press down on each pipe section until the lances securely engage the hem on the fireplace starter. The wire will assure the proper spacing between the inner and outer pipe sections.

WARNING: The opening in the collar around the chimney at the top of the fireplace must not be obstructed. Never use blown insulation to fill the chimney enclosure.

Continue to assemble chimney sections as outlined above, making sure that both the inner and outer pipe sections are locked together. When installing double wall “snap lock” chimney together, it is important to assure the joint between the chimney sections is locked. Check by pulling chimney upward after locking. The chimney will not come apart if properly locked. It is not necessary to add screws to keep the chimney together (Exception – see page 5 figure 10).

INSTRUCTIONS WHEN ELBOW OFFSET OF CHIMNEY IS NEEDED: (30E-8DM)

TO INSTALL ELBOWS

1.To achieve desired offset, you may install combinations of 12”, 18”, 24”, 36” and 48” length of double wall pipe (SEE SINGLE OFFSET CHART, FIGURE 9 & 11).
