6.2 Kozy Heat #816 and #816-CAP
IMPORTANT: Proper operation of this insert requires the exhaust pipe
and combustion air pipe to be connected to their correct flue collar, on
both the termination kit and the gas fireplace insert vent adapter.
The fireplace insert exhaust flue collar is located on the right side.
Install termination cap with the exhaust flue collar on the right side.
NOTE: The exhaust pipe will have a red marking.
IMPORTANT: Maximum horizontal vent runs of 24 in (609 mm) require
a 1 in (25mm) rise per 12 in (305 mm) run. Care should be taken when
installing the flexible vent pipes to avoid a tight bend that may cause
abrasion or damage to the flexible pipes.
1. Measure the total chimney length required and cut #816 (36’
[10.97m] of 3” flexible pipe) to the measured length.
2. Carefully extend the exhaust and combustion air intake pipes to
total chimney length required.
3. Slide the combustion air intake pipe (the end without a collar)
over termination cap collar (A). Secure to #816-CAP termination
cap (E) with (3) self-tapping screws (not provided).
4. Place a bead of sealant around the inner edge at the end of the
exhaust pipe (without collar / red marking) and slide onto the
corresponding labeled collar (B) on termination cap (E).
5. Secure the exhaust pipe to termination cap (E) with (3) self-
tapping screws (not provided). Apply additional sealant around
joint to ensure a proper seal.
6. Complete vent system installation by following the instructions
outlined in Sections 6.3 through 6.6.
