DUCTING OPTIONS

Properly ducting the Smart Fireplace Furnace will provide years of comfort because properly ducted fireplaces will allow for a more uniform distribution of heat throughout the home. Many ducting options are possible with the Smart Fireplace Furnace. Which option is selected depends on your installer’s knowledge, local codes, and the desired results expected from the completed

system. During the installation process, it is important to determine and ensure the compatibility of the Smart Fireplace Furnace with any gas or oil fired furnace that is to be installed in the residence. As a minimum, a test must be conducted to ensure the furnace installation is compatible with the existing Smart Fireplace Furnace’s operating range of air temperature rise and/or external static pressure of those marked on the nameplate of the central furnace.

FIGURE 15: (OPTIONAL) SIDE VENTED FIREPLACE

CAUTION: The warm-air supply outlet of the Smart Fireplace Furnace should not be connected to the cold-air return inlet of the central furnace system. These warm-air to cold-air connections must not be made because the possibility exists of components in the central furnace system overheating and causing the central furnace system to operate other than as it was intended to operate.

OPTIONAL DUCT RINGS are available from Country Flame Technologies and are unique to fireplace models. FIGURE 15 shows an example of a side duct system. Contact Country Flame or your dealer to order a duct kit for a specific fireplace model.
