INSTALLATION
HORIZONTAL VENT DEFLECTOR INSTALLATION
NAILING STRIPS
The side, top and bottom nailing strips come attached to the unit. There
are 3 plates on each side and 2 on the bottom - 8 in total. They can be
folded out as required. The bottom nailing strip is secured to the unfi nished
fl oor - if installing the unit directly on the fl oor.
Note: This installation is only required for horizontal terminations. If any
rise is used when venting this unit - the defl ector and extender are
not required.
1) The defl ector and extender are shipped on top of the fi rebox. Slide
the defl ector out from under the nailing strip and lift the extender up
off the nailing strip.
2) Remove the 3 screws near the vent outlet on the fi rebox - as shown below.
3) Install the defl ector near the vent outlet - secure with the same 3 screws.
Ensure fl ange on defl ector is facing downward.
4) Install the extender on top of the defl ector with 2 screws - slide the
extender until it touches the outside wall - tighten screws to secure.
Extender can be adjusted to max. 15-1/2".
