Note: 40-1/2" (1029mm) is the minimum height for both flex termination or Simpson Dura-Vent venting.

5)The unit does not have to be completely enclosed in a chase. The clearance on top of the unit is 0" to the standoffs so combustible building materials can be laid directly on top of the standoffs. You must maintain clearance from the vent to combustible materials for fl ex, see section "Clearances."

6)Use steel studs for framing where the

1-1/2" (38mm) clearance from the vent to combustible material cannot be maintained, e.g. front top header.

UNIT ASSEMBLY

PRIOR TO

INSTALLATION

The Top Facing Support, the Side Nailing Strips and the 2 Top Standoffs must be correctly positioned and attached to the top before unit is slipped into position.

Top Standoff Assembly

The top standoffs are shipped in a fl at position and must be folded into shape and attached.

1)Remove the standoffs from the fi replace top.

2)Take each standoff and bend into the correct shape. Bend up at the bend lines until the screw holes in the standoff and the pre- punched screw holes on the fi replace top line up.

3)Attach the standoff securely to the top with 2 screws per standoff (on opposite corners).

Top Facing Support and

Side Nailing Strips

Determine the total thickness of facing material (e.g. drywall plus ceramic tiles) to allow the

nished surface to be fl ush with the front of the unit. Total facing thickness can vary from 1/2" (13mm) to 1-1/4" (32mm) thick.

TheTop Facing Support & Side Nailing Strips can be mounted in 3 different positions depending on the thickness of the facing material.

*For "C" screw position the top facing support is reversed.

1)Mount Top Facing Support using the 3 supplied screws into the three pre-punched screw holes on the top front of the unit. Use hole positions A, B, or C depending on your facing depth.

"C" Screw Position:

For a facing material depth of 1-1/4" (32mm), the top facing support must be reversed.

2)Use the same screw hole position for the Side Nailing Strips as was used for the Top Facing Support. Attach each side nailing strip using 3 screws.

VENTING

INTRODUCTION

The G36D uses the "balanced fl ue" technology Co-Axial system. The inner liner vents products of combustion to the outside while the outer liner draws outside combustion air into the combustion chamber thereby eliminating the need to use heated room air for combustion and losing warm room air up the chimney.

Note: These flue pipes must not be

connected to any other appliance.

The gas appliance and vent system must be vented directly to the outside of the building, and never be attached to a chimney serving a separate solid fuel or gas burning appliance. Each direct vent gas appliance must use it's own separate vent system. Common vent systems are prohibited.
