Do not connect the hot air ducts to a central heating system. Malfunction of the heating system’s fan
will cause the fireplace to overheat.

10.
Do not use tees or any other components than the ones specifically listed here.
11.
All ducts must extend upwards or horizontally.
Never route the ducting downwards.

The hot air outlet grilles must be installed with the louvers pointing downwards in order to prevent
overheating adjacent ceilings.

Always install the two outlet grilles when using the hot air gravity distribution kit and blocking the upper
louver of the fireplace.
