Installing the Finishing Kits
The BIS Ultima
TM
CF requires the installation of a finishing kit. Two options are available:
1.
Louver kit (part number: LOUVRECF)
2.
Clean face kit (part number: CAPPINGCF)
3.4.2.1 Installing the louver kit
The louver kit includes two identical louvers assembly. The louvers must be oriented
so the angular parts of the grills are towards the front and the bottom and the cotter
pins are at the bottom.
Insert the top of the louver rods in the top trims holes. Than insert the bottom of the
rods in the holes at the bottom of the opening. The cotter pins will rest on the bottom
trim in order to vertically locate the louvers.

3.4.2.2 Installing the clean face kit
The clean face kit includes four parts. Two trims, left and right, are used to cover the
edge of the finishing material on the sides, and two obstruction plates to cover the top
and bottom openings allowing to install the finishing material closer to the door.
WARNING: The bottom obstruction plate is designed to leave an opening area for the
convection air to circulate and cool your fireplace. NEVER BLOCK THIS AIR
SPACE TO AVOID OVERHEATING THE FIREPLACE AND POTENTIALLY
CAUSE A FIRE IN YOUR HOME.
See section 3.5.1 to install the gravity vent kit.
Installation Steps:
1.
Install the side finishing trim, making sure to differentiate the left from the
right. The shortest end bend should be towards the bottom.
2.
Install the right side trim. The full length flat part must rest against the
right side face frame, the center bend must be oriented towards the outside
of the unit and the bends towards the inside. The end bend on top must be
pushed between the crossing trim and the right side frame. This can be
difficult because these are close together to allow a good look when using
the louver kit. The part will be fixed in place when installing the other
parts.
3.
Repeat with the left trim.
