4. Floor & Rear Installation: Cut a 4 inch (102mm) hole in
outside wall or fl oor to accommodate outside air piping.
Use 4 inch (102mm) aluminum metal fl ex or rigid piping
to directly connect outside air to appliance intake. Use
the supplied termination cap with a rodent screen. Seal
between the wall (or fl oor) and the pipe with silicone to
prevent moisture penetration.
Included in kit: Termination cap, (2) wire ties, fl ex adapter,
and fasteners

A source of air (oxygen) is necessary in order for combustion
to take place. Whatever combustion air is consumed by the
fi re must be replaced.
Air is replaced via air leakage around windows and under
doors. In homes that have tightly sealed doors and windows,
an outside air source is highly recommended. An optional
Outside Air Kit is avail
able.

Appliance Set-up
WARNING! Risk of Fire and Asphyxiation!
Do not draw outside combustion air from:
• Wall, fl oor, ceiling cavity or enclosed space such as
an attic or garage. Also do not draw outside air from
close proximity to exhaust vents or chimneys. Fumes
or odor may result if you do.
Outside air inlet must be located to prevent blockage
from leaves, snow, ice or other debrs. Blockage may
cause combustion air starvation. Smoke spillage may
set off alarms or irritate sensitive individuals.
The length of the outside air supply duct shall NOT
exeed the length of the vertical height of the exhaust
fl ue.
• The fi re will not burn properly and their will be
smoke spillage when the door is opened due to air
starvation.

5. Floor Installation Alternative: In some instances you
may not be able to install the fl ex pipe as show in Figure
40.1.
If that is the case, use the cover plate and sealing rope
supplied with the pedestal kit as shown in Figure 40.2.
The goal is to seal the pedestal so no room air can leak
into the pedestal and for cold air infi ltration.
