WARNING
• Ensure to unpack all loose materials from inside the fi rebox prior to connecting the gas and electrical supply
•
If your appliance is supplied with a remote, ensure the remote receiver is in the “OFF” position prior
to connecting the gas and electrical supply to the appliance.
• For safe and proper operation of the appliance, follow the venting instructions exactly.
•
The appliance exhaust fl ue collar must be sealed using Mill Pac
. All exhaust and intake vent pipe joints
must be sealed using red RTV high temp silicone sealant (W573-0002) (not supplied) or black high temp Mill
Pac (W573-0007) (not supplied).
• If using pipe clamps to connect rigid vent components, a minimum of 3 screws must also be used to ensure
the connection cannot slip off.
• Do not clamp the fl exible vent pipe.
• Risk of fi re, explosion, or asphyxiation. Improper support of the entire venting system may allow vent to sag
and separate. Use vent run supports and connect vent sections per installation instructions.
• Risk of fi re, do not allow loose materials or insulation to touch the vent pipe. Remove insulation to allow for the
installation of the attic shield and to maintain clearances to combustibles.
• Do not fi ll the space between the vent pipe and enclosure with any type of material. Do not pack insulation
or combustibles between ceiling fi restops. Always maintain specifi ed clearances around venting and fi restop
systems. Install wall shields and fi restops as specifi ed. Failure to keep insulation or other materials away from
vent pipe may cause fi re.
