Venting System and Appliance

Installation

Connect Venting

IMPORTANT: This appliance’s venting system is room sealed and there-

fore, does not require room air to be used in the combustion process.

1.  Rough-in two 3” diameter vent liners into the existing chimney 

system from the roof. Be careful not to tear or damage the liners in 

the process. It may be easier to install both liners at the same time 

rather than one at a time. Leave plenty of liners at the bottom to 

facilitate the connection of the liners to the vent slider.

 It is best to 

leave the top termination until later.

Designate and mark the top and bottom of one liner as “EX-

HAUST” to avoid confusion later.

2.  Release the two screws retaining the vent slider to the front of the 

fi

 rebox. Remove the slider from the 

fi

 rebox by sliding it towards the 

back of the 

fi

 rebox.

3.  Fit the two liners 

ensuring that the exhaust liner is connected to 

the identi

fi

 ed “EXHAUST” vent collar.

 Secure liners to collars with 

hose clamps (included) and 2 tapping screws per liner.

4. Slide 

the 

fi

 rebox onto the vent slider in the cavity taking care not to 

damage the liners. 

Make sure that the rear edge of the slider is 

hooked over the cleat on the 

fi

 rebox. 

Secure the vent slider to the 

front of the 

fi

 rebox with two screws removed earlier.

5.  From the roof, pull the liners and 

fi

 t the 

fl

 ashing.

6.  Fit the terminal cap 

ensuring that the exhaust liner is connected to 

the exhaust vent collar. 

Secure with screws.

7.  Seal the terminal and 

fl

 ashing from water penetration as required.
