OUTSIDE AIR KIT (MODEL AK-6)

The installation of an outside air kit should be performed during the rough framing of the fireplace due to the nature of its location. Outside combustion air is accessed through the mobile home floor (Refer to AK-6 Installation Instructions for details). In some instances, a wall installation is required (see Figure 5). Note: An AK-6WAI Air Kit must be ordered when a sidewall installation is required (see accessories on page 12). See page 10, figure 25 for instructions on how to operate the air kit.

FAN KIT ASSEMBLY (BK3)

A fan kit assembly is preinstalled in this fireplace. Use of blowers or fans other than manufactured by DESA voids the warranty. The fan is operated by pressing the rocker switch located at the lower right hand corner of the fireplace face. Fan kit electrical connections are made through the electrical cover plate located on the side of the fireplace as shown in figure 6a.

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 lineal gain chart (see figure 7).

There are two vent kits available, which have been specially designed for common installations in manufactured (mobile homes): MW8K (8’ Vent Kit) and MW9K (9’ Vent Kit). The contents of these kits are listed under accessories on page 12. Most chimney systems for manufactured houses require a standard straight installation as described in this section. If an uncommon offset installation is required, see page 10.

Figure 7 LINEAL GAIN

Important: If the height of the chimney assembly exceeds requirements for transportation of the home, the chimney installation may be completed after the home is sited.

Note: the termination must always be installed after the home is sited.
