Venting Installation

This appliance must not be connected to a chimney flue serving a separate solid-fuel burning appliance.
This appliance is approved with Kingsman Flex Vent System (as listed in the manual) or MG Duravent flex pipe system.
All venting lining products must be approved and installed according to the vent manufacturers installation instructions. All

vent liners must terminate in a rain cap to prevent debris and rain from entering the vent and possibly damaging the

appliance or creating an unsafe condition. The area between the existing chimney and liner must be capped off for the

same reasons as above and to reduce the chances of venting problems and corrosion of the vent.
If this fireplace insert is to be used to replace an existing fireplace insert the existing vent liner must be of the proper size

and if so must be inspected for obstructions, damage and/or corrosion. Replacement must be done as necessary.
Before any vent liner is run through a chimney or other approved venting system, chimney must be inspected, cleaned

and repaired if necessary. A chimney which was used for a solid fuel fireplace must be professionally cleaned in order to

reduce corrosion of the vent or other possible safety hazards.

Installation of Vertical Termination

Before attaching the flex vents to the termination, you will have to

determine how the cap will be attached to the existing chimney crown, clay

lined chimney or wood stove vent pipe. The Seal Plate of the termination

may be cut, notched and formed to make a good seal to the existing vent

or be left flat.

Using a high quality sealing compound (RTV Silicone) place a bead of

sealant onto the vent or chimney top. This will provide a seal against water

and rain from entering the existing flue.

Attach the vent pipes to the termination with Millpac and [4] screws and

washers per pipe joint. Be sure to label the exhaust and intake flex pipes.

Make sure not to connect the exhaust to the intake or vice versa. Lower the

termination and vent pipe down the vent and screw the seal plate to the

chimney crown, clay tile chimney, or wood stove vent. It may be necessary

to predrill holes into the chimney crown (depending on material) [8 screws].

Vertical Venting in Cold Climates

In cold climate conditions where temperatures go below -10°C [14°F], we recommend that the chase be

insulated and where the vent pipe enters into the attic space that the pipe be wrapped with an insulated

Mylar sleeve. This will increase the temperature of the vent and help the appliance to vent properly in cold

weather conditions.
It is also important in vertical vented direct vent appliances that the appliance be operated daily during the

winter months as this will help stop the Termination from freezing up. We recommend using a thermostat

set at room temperature to allow the unit to cycle.
For IPI models it may be necessary to set the appliance to Standing Pilot mode to maintain heat in the

cavity. The purpose of this procedure is to prevent cold air from penetrating the chimney and then onto the

living space. Therefore, when the internal temperature is slightly elevated the fireplace is able to freely

exhaust its combustion and hence making it easier to startup.
