as shown in Figure 2. Ensure the joint is
properly sealed, at both the intake and exhaust
connection for airtight operation.
Secure the
terminal to the adapter box with three sheet
metal screws.
4. Apply a bead of high temperature sealant to
the two 3” crimped edges of intake and
exhaust collars on the bottom of the adapter
box. Insert the intake vent pipe to the intake
collar fully. Secure the pipe to the collar with a
3” adjustable hose clamp. Repeat this last
step for the exhaust pipe.
As an additional
precaution against accidental
disconnection, install two sheet metal
screws on each collar through the flex pipe.
5. If necessary, fasten a cover plate to the top of
the chimney in order to secure the adapter box
to the chimney. Ensure this cover plate has
been properly sealed to prevent any leakage.
6. Carefully feed the two loose ends of the flex
pipes down the chimney opening until the
bottom plate of the adapter box rests on top of
the chimney cover plate. Fasten the adapter
box to the chimney.

Insert Installation
1. From the rear of the insert, connect a flexible
gas line to the gas valve using the appropriate
thread sealant to ensure a sealed joint.
2. Carefully place the insert on the hearth, in
front of the fireplace opening. The insert
should be placed as close to the opening as
possible, leaving enough room to gain
access for the remaining connections.
3. Connect the flexible gas line to the gas
supply. Again, use the proper thread sealant
to ensure that there are no leaks present.
4. Remove the wire tie from the electrical cord,
located at the rear of the insert. Plug this
cord into an electrical outlet to supply power
to the unit.
5. Locate the flex pipes inside the chimney and
pull them towards the insert. Trim any
excess pipe.
Downward looping of the
exhaust and intake venting is not
permitted. Please refer to Figure 4 for
further details.
