B. Assemble Slip Sections

Slide the inner flue of the slip section into the inner flue of the pipe section and the outer flue of the slip section over the outer flue of the pipe section. See Figure 8.3.

Slide together to the desired length.

Pilot hole

Figure 8.3 Slip Section Pilot Holes

Maintain a 1-1/2 in. (38 mm) overlap between the slip section and the pipe section.

Secure the pipe and slip section with two screws no longer than 1/2 in. (13 mm), using the pilot holes in the slip section. See Figure 8.4.

Figure 8.4 Screws into Slip Section

Continue adding pipe as necessary following instructions in “Assembling Pipe Sections.”

NOTICE: If slip section is too long, the inner and outer flues of the slip section can be cut to the desired length.

NOTICE: When installing a vent system with an HRC termination cap, all pipe system joints shall be sealed using a high temperature silicone sealant.

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

Only outer pipes are sealed, sealing the inner flue is not required.

All unit collar, pipe, slip section, elbow and cap outer flues shall be sealed.

C. Secure the Vent Sections

Vertical runs of SLP pipe must be supported every 8 ft. (2.44 m).

Horizontal sections must be supported every 5 feet (1.52 m).

Vent supports or plumbers strap (spaced 120º apart) may be used to support. See Figures 8.5 and 8.6.

Wall shield firestops may be used to provide horizontal support.

SLP ceiling firestops have tabs that may be used to provide vertical support.

WARNING! Risk of Fire, Explosion or Asphyxiation! Improper support may allow vent to sag and separate. Use vent run supports and connect vent sections per in- stallation instructions. DO NOT allow vent to sag below connection point to appliance.

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.
