Chateau™ Direct Vent Gas Fireplace

Support horizontal pipes every 3’ (914 mm) with metal pipe straps.

Check fireplace to make sure it is levelled and properly positioned.

Sidewall Installation with

Stationary Glass Facing Outside

CAUTION: Unit must be installed with station- ary glass facing outside. (Control housing will be located on the left side of the unit when facing the unit from inside the house.)

Failure to do so will result in a major reconstruction and CFM Corporation will not be responsible for costs associated with incorrect installation..

STEP 1

Locate vent opening on the wall. It may be necessary to first position the fireplace and measure to obtain hole location. Depending on whether the wall is combustible or noncombustible, cut opening to size. (Fig. 19)

For combustible walls first frame in opening.

Combustible Walls: Cut a 16¹⁄”H x 16¹⁄” W (413 x 413 mm) hole through the exterior wall and frame as shown.

Noncombustible Walls: Hole opening must be 11¹⁄” (286mm) in diameter.

STEP 2

Measure wall thickness and cut zero clearance sleeve parts to proper length (MAXIMUM 12”/305 mm). As- semble sleeve using #8 sheet metal screws (supplied). (Fig. 20) Install firestop assembly. (Fig. 35)

Zero clearance sleeve is only required for combustible walls.

STEP 3

Slide the zero clearance sleeve through the wall and install the firestop on the inside surface of the wall. Secure with four (4) #8 sheet metal screws.

STEP 4

Place fireplace into position. (Fig. 21) Measure the ver- tical height (X) required from the base of the flue collars to the center of the wall opening. NOTE: If using the SK8DVSK Kit, the vertical section of pipe is telescopic and could provide adjustment from 24” up to 40” (610 to 1016). Through the wall section shipped with the starter kit will not be used when going through the wall.

STEP 5

Tape the inner and outer flue collars of the fireplace using UL approved metal adhesive tape to ensure the joints are sealed. Attach an appropriate length of vent pipe to the fireplace. Follow with the installation of the inner and outer elbow, tape elbow joints and secure joints as described on Page 17.
