HEAT RELEASES
All Flare Fireplaces (both safety screen and double glass units) require heat releases for warm air to flow back into the room.
This controls the temperature of the surrounding walls, keeping them relatively cool.
Top Hot Release
- The release/ outlet for hot airflow from the wall enclosure
MUST
remain open. The outlet must be at the top
part of the enclosure but not necessarily at the front, so long as the measurements below are maintained. Heat release opening
can be installed at the sides of the enclosure (one on every side), back or on top of (in case of a drop wall design).
The size of the heat release size will be detainment based on the size of your fireplace. Use the following table to confirm what
unit size should be used to calculate the size of the heat release and air intake.
For fireplaces sized
80” & 100”
–
vent area must be at least
200 square inches.
For fireplaces sized
60”
& 70”
- vent area must be at least
140 square inches
.
For fireplace sized
50”
and below - vent area must be at least
100 square inches.
The top of
the outlet(s) must be at least 1”
(25mm) down from the ceiling and
no more than 3”
(76mm) down. The vent can
also be installed on top of the enclosure, in case of a drop wall (a chase that is not built all the way to the upper ceiling). Any
opening greater than the minimum size is highly recommended and will help reduce the temperature of the surrounding walls.
Make sure a non-combustible fire stop is placed atop the inside of the chase and is framed in a way that does not allow any
pockets of heat to be formed
.
All rising heat should be able rise to the fire stop and freely flow though the vent in to the
room.
