The glass must be taken off again for positioning the logs when the unit is finally installed in place and finished around it. Re-install the glass door. Attach vent system to the top starting collars.

1.Attach the First Vent Component to the Starting Collars

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

Make sure that the fiberglass rope ring supplied in the manual bag seals between the first 8 inch (203mm) vent component and the outer fireplace wrap (see Figure 14).

2. Continue Adding Vent Components

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

Ensure that each succeeding vent component is secure- ly fitted and locked into the preceding component in the vent system. Securing pipe sections with a maximum of two screws is recommended.

90° elbows may be installed and rotated to any point around the preceding component’s vertical axis. If an el- bow does not end up in a locked position with the pre- ceding component, attach with a minimum of two (2) sheet metal screws.
