Electrical Services
Optional fan kits are equipped with a 120V, 60Hz
blower, less than 12 amps.
If electrical supply 120V is being roughed in to provide
for future installation of an optional blower kit, an
approved surface mount, steel electrical box, cover and
strain relief bushing must be installed in the fireplace
(supplied by others).
NOTE: All electric connections are to be made in
accordance with CSA Standard C22.1 - Canadian
Electrical Code part 1 or with the National Electrical
Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 (latest addition) and/or in accor-
dance with local codes.
General Venting
When locating the vent termination, the minimum vent
clearances must be observed. (Page 9, Fig. 10)
NOTE: Local codes may require different clearances.
It is recommended that the termination not be located
within 24" (305mm) of garden sheds, fences, decks,
utility buildings or other obstructions.
Do not locate termination cap where excessive snow or
ice build up may occur. Be sure to check vent termina-
tion area after snow falls and clear to prevent acciden-
tal blockage of venting system. When using snow
blowers, make sure snow is not directed towards vent
termination area.
This appliance has a "special vent system". Check with
local codes or in the absence of same, with CSA
B149.1 installation codes in Canada, or the current
National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 in the
USA, regarding special vent termination clearances.

venting systems
1. Temco 4” x 7” dia. flex vent.
