FAQ

Can the manifold be removed for tight installation?

Yes, the manifold can be loosened and rotated for desired pipe location, allowing for a tight installation.

How should the excess flex vent be handled during installation?

The excess flex vent should be temporarily attached to the top of the chimney, leaving some extra slack. This will allow for proper maneuvering and attachment to the chimney and insert.

What is the recommended way to attach the manifold to the insert?

The manifold should be attached to the insert using screws and sealed with silicone, ensuring a secure connection.
