instaLLation instRuctions:
1. Plan your installation and clearances to combustibles. The
E30G may be installed and vented into
any solid fuel fireplace that has been installed in accordance with the National, Provincial/State and
local building codes and has been constructed of non-combustible materials. Also refer to the

sections. Refer
to Figure 19 throughout installation.
2. Stretch the Ø3” (76mm) flex vent liners to the length needed to ensure they can be easily connected
to the vent terminals.
3. Install the flex pipe assembly up through the chimney, ensure that the pipe slides through far enough
to connect onto the vent cap.
4. Most vent caps can be installed onto chimneys with flue openings up to 16” (406mm) x 16” (406mm)
and the actual flashing is 18”x18” (refer to Figure 20). If the chimney is smaller the cap should be
trimmed down and folded over.
5. Apply a bead of stove cement sealant to the top section of the Ø3” (76mm) exhaust vent collar plate.
Slide the Ø3” (76mm) flex vent over the flue collar and secure with three (3) sheet metal screws
evenly spaced.
Note:
If fireplace opening is lower than 24” (610 mm), remove the vent collar plate from the top of
the insert (see

)
and connect it securely
to the liner as stated in Step 4. Check for tears in the liner at this point.
6. Place a bead of high temperature silicone on the intake collar of the fireplace, slide the Ø3” (76mm)
flex intake liner over the collar, secure the flex liner with three (3) sheet metal screws evenly spaced.
7. At the top of the chimney, apply a bead of stove cement sealant to the Ø3” (76mm) pipe of the
exhaust vent terminal (refer to Figure 18). Slide the flex liner onto the vent terminal and secure with
three (3) sheet metal screws evenly spaced.
8. Place a bead of high temperature silicone on the intake collar of the vent terminal (refer to Figure 18).
Slide the Ø3” (76mm) flex intake liner over the collar, secure the flex liner with three (3) sheet metal
screws evenly spaced.
9. Make a tight connection between the gas
fireplace insert flue collar and the fireplace
chimney at the top of the chimney. Secure the
vent terminal to the chimney using adequate
sealant, and according to local building codes.
