Install Plenum Kit (LDK8)
1. Frame a rough opening at the desired location—see
earlier sections of this manual for detail.
2. Install the plenum into the front of the frame
opening, maintaining minimum clearances to
combustibles as previously listed.
3. Fix the plenum to the front of the framing using
screws through the faceplate (16 screws).
4. Attach one section of UL-181, Class 1 approved air
duct to each of the collars and secure it with gear
clamps provided.
DO NOT SPLICE DUCTS!
5. Attach the top of the pipe sections to the plenum
securing them with the gear clamps provided. An
upward slope must be maintained in horizontal
sections of pipes for proper convection (see

necessary to maintain the pipes positions. Support
horizontal sections every 24 inches.
