VENTING INSTALLATION
OPTIONAL OUTSIDE AIR KIT (MODEL AK4/AK4F)
The installation of an outside air kit should be per- formed during the rough framing of the fireplace due to the nature of it's location. Outside combus- tion air is accessed through a vented crawl space (AK4F) or through a sidewall (AK4).
CAUTION: Combustion air inlet ducts shall not terminate in attic space.

ASSEMBLY AND INSTALLATION OF | ||||||||
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 as- | ||||||||
sembled independently as the chimney is installed. | ||||||||
When connecting 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 fire- | ||||||||
place starter. The wire will assure the proper spacing | ||||||||
between the inner and outer pipe sections. |
