Determining Vent Setup in the Combination Venting Unit
Combination venting units are shipped with rear venting setup nearly ready for install. If this is the type of vent you require, remove
all insulation packing and flue plug block off from rear venting and proceed with fireplace installation. If you require a top-vented
unit, use the following steps to convert the fireplace before use.

Installing Metal, Non-Combustible Front Standoff
A non-combustible metal standoff is provided with the fireplace to prevent overlap of drywall or other material of portions of the
fireplace that may be prone to the buildup of heat. Standoff arrives on the lower front of the unit.
A field-supplied, noncombustible
board may be substituted for the metal standoff.
Use raised locating dimples
to position front standoff.
Step 1:
Carefully bend up the two (2) tabs on the heat shield at a 90° angle from each opposite
joint and then the foot of the Standoff at approximately a 45° angle.
Step 2:
Secure all three of the screws to the up-right posi-
tioned heat shield - one (1) at both ends and one (1) in the
center.
Step 3:
Top of front standoff
should be flush with top
standoffs.
Step 4:
Standoff should be
flush with front of unit.
Step 1:
Remove the eight (8) screws holding the top vent cover
plate and gasket. Discard cover plate and reinstall screws.
Step 2
: Remove the round flue cover from the top venting outlet.
Step 3
: Remove insulation from inside flue pipe.
Step 4

move the flue plug from the top flue.
