VENTING INSTALLATION
OPTIONAL OUTSIDE AIR KIT (MODEL AK4/AK4F)
Installation of outside air kit should be performed during rough fram-
ing of fireplace due to the nature of it's location. Outside combustion
air is accessed through a vented crawl space (AK4F) or through a
sidewall (AK4). See Figure 5 for instruction of operating air kit.
CAUTION: Combustion air inlet ducts shall not
terminate in attic or garage space.
The maximum height for the air vent can not exceed
3 feet below the flue gas outlet of the termination.
CHIMNEY PIPE
An IHP chimney system consists of 12", 18", 24", 36" and 48" snap-
lock, double-wall pipe segments, planned for maximum adaptability
to individual site requirements. Actual lengths gained after fitting
overlaps must be taken into consideration (lineal gain) and are given
in lineal gain chart (see Figure 6).
Lineal gain is actual measurable length of a part after two or more
parts are connected.
