8 Installing Vent Pipe

A. Assemble Vent Sections

To attach the first vent component to the starting collars of the appliance:

Lock the vent components into place by sliding the pipe section onto the collar.

Align the seam of the pipe and seam of collar to allow engagement. Rotate the vent component to lock into place. Use this procedure for all vent components. See Figure 8.1.

Slide the gasket over the first vent section and place it flush to the appliance. This will prevent cold air infiltration. High temperature caulk may be used to hold the part in place.

Continue adding vent components, locking each succeeding component into place.

Ensure that each succeeding vent component is securely fitted and locked into the preceding component.

Commercial, Multi-family (Multi-level exceeding two sto- ries), or High-Rise Applications

For Installation into a commercial, multi-family (multi-level exceeding two stories) or high-rise applications: All outer pipe joints must be sealed with high temperature silicone, including the slip section that connects directly to the hori- zontal termination cap.

Apply a bead of silicone sealant inside the female outer pipe joint prior to joining sections. See Figure 8.2

Only outer pipes need to be sealed. All unit collar, pipe, slip section, elbow and cap outer flues shall be sealed in this manner, unless otherwise stated.

WARNING! Risk of Fire or Explosion! DO NOT break silicone seals on slip sections. Use care when removing termination cap from slip pipe. If slip section seals are broken during removal of the termination cap, vent may leak.

Note: Align seams to engage pipe, then rotate counterclockwise to lock

As a result, users can enjoy a clear view of the mesmerizing flames without the hassle of constant cleaning.

In terms of efficiency, the Cyclone-BC and Cyclone-BN models boast an exceptional thermal efficiency rating. Thanks to their advanced combustion technology, these fireplaces burn wood more completely, resulting in less smoke and harmful emissions. The high-efficiency design not only benefits the environment but also ensures that heat is maximized, helping to lower heating costs for homeowners.

The construction of the Cyclone fireplaces is another highlight. Built with high-quality materials, these units are designed to withstand the rigors of daily use and maintain their performance over time. Their robust firebox is engineered to accommodate larger logs, offering longer burn times and fewer reloads.

Both models are highly versatile in their aesthetic appeal. The Cyclone-BC features a classic, traditional design that fits seamlessly into a variety of home decors, while the Cyclone-BN leans toward a more contemporary style. Homeowners can customize the look even further with different finishing options, allowing for a personalized touch that complements their unique interior settings.

Safety is paramount in the design of the Cyclone series. These fireplaces come equipped with advanced safety features, including a protective screen and secure door latch, providing peace of mind for families. Additionally, the heat output can be easily controlled, allowing users to adjust the flame and temperature to their desired comfort level.

In conclusion, Hearth and Home Technologies’ Cyclone-BC and Cyclone-BN fireplaces deliver on both performance and style. With efficient heating capabilities, innovative technologies, and a range of design options, these wood-burning units are an exceptional choice for those looking to enhance their living space while enjoying the warmth and ambiance that only a real fire can provide.
