OPTIONS
4.1 Hot Air Kit
The hot air system is an optional kit intended to
bring hot air from the fireplace to a remote area
using a 250 CFM blower. The system is designed to
distribute heat with ducting lengths up to 25 feet.
Note that only an insulated flexible duct capable of
withstanding a maximum temperature of 210
o
F can
be installed with this kit. Note that a minimum
distance of ten inches is required between the side
of the unit connecting to the hot air kit and the
framing to allow significant space (refer to Figure 3-
3). It is possible to install up to three air ducts and to
direct the ducts upwards or downwards.
CAUTION: Only a hot air kit provided by
SUPREME FIREPLACES INC. can be installed
onto the fireplace. Substituting the hot air kit
may result in overheating, will void the warranty
and can be hazardous.
WARNINGS
•
Do not install the blower within the casing of the
fireplace.
•
The minimum wall opening to run the duct is
6” x 7.5”.
•
When the hot air duct passes through the chase of the fireplace, the minimum distances to combustible
materials must be respected. The duct must be secured to prevent accidental displacement.
•
The minimum distance between the blower and the fireplace is 3 feet.
•
The duct must not be in contact with the top of the fireplace.
•
Do not use a speed control for the blower, which is hazardous and will void the warranty.
•
The top of the hot air grille must be a minimum of 2 inches away from a flat ceiling.
•
The hot air grille must be installed in a location that ensures the effective dispersion of the hot air.
•
The hot air grille cannot be installed on a floor.
•
If the grille is installed near a wall or ceiling, the grille openings must be positioned in such a way to direct
hot air away from the wall or ceiling.
