"C" Screw Position:

For a facing material depth of 1-1/4"

(32mm), the top facing support must be

reversed.

UNIT ASSEMBLY

PRIOR TO

INSTALLATION

The Top Facing Support, the Side Nailing Strips

and the 2 Top Standoffs must be correctly

positioned and attached to the top before unit

is slipped into position.

Top Standoff Assembly

The top standoffs are shipped in a fl at position

and must be folded into shape and attached.

1) Remove the standoffs from the fi replace

top.

2) Take each standoff and bend into the correct

shape. Bend up at the bend lines until the

screw holes in the standoff and the pre-

punched screw holes on the fi replace top

line up.

Top Facing Support and

Side Nailing Strips

Determine the total thickness of facing material

(e.g. drywall plus ceramic tiles) to allow the

fi nished surface to be fl ush with the front of the

unit. Total facing thickness can vary from 1/2"

(13mm) to 1-1/4" (32mm) thick.

The Top Facing Support & Side Nailing Strips can

be mounted in 3 different positions depending

on the thickness of the facing material.

* For "C" screw position the top facing support

is reversed.

1) Mount Top Facing Support using the 3

supplied screws into the three pre-punched

screw holes on the top front of the unit. Use

hole positions A, B, or C depending on your

facing depth.

2) Use the same screw hole position for the

Side Nailing Strips as was used for the Top

Facing Support. Attach each side nailing

strip using 3 screws.

VENTING

INTRODUCTION

The G36D uses the "balanced fl ue" technology

Co-Axial system. The inner liner vents products

of combustion to the outside while the outer liner

draws outside combustion air into the combustion

chamber thereby eliminating the need to use

heated room air for combustion and losing warm

room air up the chimney.

Note: These flue pipes must not be

connected to any other appliance.

The gas appliance and vent system must be

vented directly to the outside of the building,

and never be attached to a chimney serving a

separate solid fuel or gas burning appliance.

Each direct vent gas appliance must use it's own

separate vent system. Common vent systems

are prohibited.

Note: 40-1/2" (1029mm) is the minimum

height for both fl ex termination or

Simpson Dura-Vent venting.

5) The unit does not have to be completely

enclosed in a chase. The clearance on

top of the unit is 0" to the standoffs so

combustible building materials can be

laid directly on top of the standoffs. You

must maintain clearance from the vent to

combustible materials for fl ex, see section

"Clearances."

6) Use steel studs for framing where the

1-1/2" (38mm) clearance from the vent to

combustible material cannot be maintained,

e.g. front top header.

INSTALLATION

3) Attach the standoff securely to the top

with 2 screws per standoff (on opposite

corners).
