1. Attach the First Vent Component to the
Starting Collars

To attach the first vent component to the starting collars
of the fireplace:

• Apply a 3/8 inch (9.5mm) bead of stove cement around

the 5 inch (127mm) fireplace starting collar.

• Make sure that the fireplace rope gasket supplied with

the fireplace seals between the first 8-5/8 inch (219mm)
vent component and the outer fireplace wrap.

• Lock the vent components into place by sliding the con-

centric pipe sections with four (4) equally spaced interior
beads into the fireplace collar or previously installed com-
ponent end with four (4) equally spaced indented sections.

• When the internal beads of each 8-5/8 inch (219mm)

outer pipe line up, rotate the pipe section clockwise about
one-quarter (1/4) turn. The vent pipe is now locked together.

B. Installing Vent Components

After determining which set of starting collars will be used
(top or rear), follow venting instructions accordingly.

Venting Out the Rear Vent
Remove the installed rear seal cap from the rear starting
collars by removing screws (see Figure 17). Follow the vent
configuration tables accordingly.

Remove the insulation from the REAR five inch flue, pull
the heat shield out from outside of the firebox.

WARNING: THE TOP HEAT SHIELD (INSIDE
THE FIREBOX) MUST REMAIN ATTACHED IF
THE VENT SYSTEM IS ATTACHED TO THE
REAR STARTING COLLARS. SEE FIGURE 17.

Venting Out the Top Vent
Remove the screws in the top vent collar seal cap and re-
move the top vent collar seal cap and insulation inside the
top starting collar (See Figure 17).

Remove the heat shield from inside the TOP five inch flue
from outside of the firebox.

The glass must be taken off again for positioning the logs
when the unit is finally installed in place and finished around
it. Re-install the glass door. Attach vent system to the top
starting collars.

WARNING: THE REAR VENT COLLAR SEAL
CAP MUST REMAIN ATTACHED TO THE REAR
VENT COLLARS IF THE VENT SYSTEM IS AT-
TACHED TO THE TOP STARTING COLLARS.

WARNING: FAILURE TO REMOVE INSULATION
IN THE SET OF COLLARS YOU ARE USING

COULD CAUSE A FIRE.

WARNING: YOU MUST LEAVE THE INSULATION
IN PLACE IN THE SET OF COLLARS YOU ARE
NOT USING.

If your vertical vent component is over 10 feet, you may
want to install the vertical baffle (located in the bag containing
the install manual) to improve flame appearance. Center
the vertical baffle on the 5” flue being used, and with self
tapping screws secure the baffle to the inside of the firebox.
