This appliance is approved to be adapted for Class A/Masonry
Chimney conversion with kits utilizing a 4” (102mm) flexible exhaust

Before conversion, have the existing installation inspected by a

sound. Before proceeding with following installations, check with

in your area.
Follow DIAG. 3 for allowable venting configurations for installation
in existing through-the-ceiling, Class A/Masonry chimney. Route the
exhaust gases and intake air through the existing Class A/Masonry
chimney.
