COMBUSTION AIR KIT MODEL AK4 (OPTIONAL)
The outside air kit may be installed on the left side of fireplace only.
The vent can be installed through any outside wall a minimum of three
feet below fireplace termination cap. The handle to operate damper
door for outside air inlet will be located inside left “screen pocket” of
firebox (see Figure 31). Pull handle to open or push to close.

attic space.
APPLIANCE ENCLOSURE
Before finishing enclosure around appliance, inspect all joints around
outer surround. Any gaps between nailing flanges and framing should
be sealed with noncombustible insulation or caulking.
If appliance is mounted on a raised platform, it must be a continuous
surface and not on blocks without a solid surface. This will prevent
entry of cold air by means of conduction through the total bottom of
appliance (see Figure 32).
