Cooling Vents
! The cooling vents provide cooling air for the fireplace and chimney system.
Failure to correctly install the cooling vents will lead to an extremely
dangerous installation and possibly a fire.
• The two cooling vents must be installed so as to route air from the outside to the two starter collars
on the top rear corners of the fireplace. Secure the vents to the collars using high-temperature
aluminum tape and/or sheet metal screws.
• A maximum of two 90° bends may be used on each vent. However, if a 180° bend is placed directly
off the starter collar, one additional 90° bend may be used.
• The maximum distance for the cooling ducts is listed below:
When the vertical rise is
b e t w e e n :
The maximum horizontal run may
b e :
6' and 10' (max) 5'
3' and 6' 15'
1' and 3' 20'
0' and 1' 25'
• Included with the fireplace are two 12' lengths of vent, use a connector and seal if adding more length
• The duct terminations must be located so they can not be blocked (e.g. snow drifts)
• Included with the
fireplace is a set of
storm collars and vent
hoods. Place the
collars around the
vent on the exterior
and attach with screws
or caulking to seal the
wall from the vent
penetration. Place the
hood, with open
portion facing down,
over the cooling vents
and secure.
? The cooling air duct
terminations may be
installed to draw air
from a ventilated
crawl space or attic if
approved by local
building codes.
NOTE: certain codes
require a fire curtain
damper in these cases.
