D. Disassemble Vent Sections

Rotate either section (see Figure 8.7) so the seams on both pipe sections are aligned as shown in Figure 8.8.

Pull carefully to separate the pieces of pipe.

E. Install Decorative Ceiling Components

A decorative ceiling thimble can be installed on a flat ceil- ing through which the vent passes. The decorative ceiling thimble is used to cover the firestop.

Seal the gap between the vent pipe and firestop using high temperature silicone to prevent cold air infiltration.

Install the decorative ceiling thimble by sliding it up to the ceiling and attaching it using the provided screws.

A decorative cathedral ceiling support box can be installed on a cathedral ceiling through which the vent passes.

Use a plumb-bob to mark the center line of the venting system on the ceiling and drill a small hole through the ceiling and roof at this point. Locate the hole and mark the outline of the cathedral ceiling support box on the outside roof.

Remove shingles or other roof covering as necessary to cut the rectangular hole for the support box. Cut the hole 1/8 in. (3 mm) larger than the support box outline.

Lower the support box through the hole in the roof until its bottom is at least 2 in. (51 mm) below the ceiling (Figure 8.9).

Level the support box both vertically and horizontally and temporarily tack it in place through the inside walls into the roof sheathing.

Use tin snips to cut the support box from the top corners down to the roof line and fold the resulting flaps to the roof. See Figure 8.10.

Nail the flaps to the roof AFTER running a bead of non hardening sealant between the flaps and the roof.

WARNING! Risk of Fire! Clean out ALL materials from inside the support box and complete the vertical vent run and termination.

These wood-burning fireplaces are engineered with cutting-edge technologies that ensure efficient and environmentally friendly heating, making them popular choices for homeowners seeking both functionality and aesthetics.

One of the standout features of the Cyclone series is its innovative air wash system. This technology works to keep the glass panel clean by directing a stream of pre-heated air along the inside surface, effectively reducing the accumulation of soot and ash. 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.
