Vermont Castings, Majestic Products DVRT36/39/43

Optional Top Vent Application

The DVRT appliance is shipped as a rear vent unit. If the installation layout requires the unit to be a top vent configuration the appliance can be converted by following the steps below.

When removing and refitting the plates and adapter, be sure the associated gaskets are undamaged and refitted as required.

1.Remove the ten (10) screws securing the outer collar adapter to the fireplace body. (Fig. 11)

2.Set the collar aside, complete with the gasket.

Do not damage the gasket, as the adapter and gasket must be refitted.

3.Remove the insulation material (exposed in Step 2) from the top of the unit. (Fig. 12) This material can be discarded. However, if the unit is converted back to rear vent for any reason a new piece of insulation material approved by Vermont Castings, Majestic Products must be used for this purpose.

4.Remove the four (4) screws securing the flue cover plate to the top of the intake box and remove the cover and gasket. (Fig. 12)

5.Remove the four (4) screws securing the flue pipe to the back of the intake box and remove the pipe and gasket. (Fig. 12)

6.Secure the plate and gasket removed in Step 4 over the flue opening in the back of the intake box. Ensure the gasket is in place and undamaged.

7.Install the flue pipe and gasket removed in Step 5 over the flue opening in the top of the intake box. (Fig. 13)

8.Refit the outer collar adapter and gasket to the unit with the round collar on the top. Secure the adapter with the ten (10) screws removed in Step 1.
