Chimney Liner Installation
This appliance is for installation with 4" diameter Type-B gas vent
(B-Vent) or double wall aluminium flex liner.
Install flex liner or B-Vent inside the masonry chimney all the
way to the top of the chimney cap. Vertical vent height must be a
minimum of 12 feet from the bottom of the fireplace to the bottom
of the termination (See Figure 4.)
Use the vent plate (supplied with the Hotshot) to connect the
chimney liner to the insert. Slide the flex over the vent plate and
attach with two sheet metal screws. Make sure the flange on the
bottom of the vent plate is toward the back of the fireplace. See
figure 5a.
Slide the Hotshot as far back as possible into the fireplace open-
ing. Reach inside the opening above the Hotshot and insert the
vent connector into the slot at the back of the fireplace. Push the
connector slide back as far as it will go to secure the chimney liner
in position. See figure 5b.
Centre the Hotshot in the fireplace opening, and connect the gas
line. (See Figure 3).
To install the face plate and louvres, see Installing Face Plate &
Trims.
