IMPORTANT

Minimum clearance between vent

pipes and combustible materials is 1" (25mm) on bot-
tom, sides and top.

A vent starter kit plus a transition elbow
must be used in Vertical Sidewall Installa-
tions. The 4" pipe must be centered inside

the 7" pipe coming off the transition elbow.

Canadian & USA Installations:
The venting system must conform with local codes, or
in the absence of local codes, with the National Fuel
Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 - latest edition, or
CSA B149.1 Installation Code.
Only CFM Corporation venting components specifically
approved and labelled for this fireplace may be used.

Vertical Sidewall Installations

STEP 1
Locate vent opening on the wall. It may be necessary
to first position the fireplace and measure to obtain hole
location. Depending on whether the wall is combustible
or noncombustible, cut opening to size. (Fig. 22)
For combustible walls first frame in opening.
Combustible Walls (Fig. 22): Cut a 9³⁄₈" x 9³⁄₈" (240 x
240 mm) hole through the exterior wall and frame.
Noncombustible Walls (Fig. 22): Hole opening must
be 7¹⁄₂" (190 mm) in diameter.
