VENTING SPECIFICATIONS FOR
INSTALLATION
The fireplace chimney flue and vent must be draft-
ing properly. To check the vent for proper drafting:
Light a tightly rolled newspaper on one end and
place it at the inside front edge of the fireplace.
Observe the smoke and be sure the vent is prop-
erly drawing it up the chimney. If the smoke spills
out into the room, extinguish the flame and remove
any obstruction until proper venting is achieved.
The chimney flue damper must be fixed open to provide a
minimum of 81 sq. in. of free air opening during operation
of this log set. A multipurpose damper clamp is provided
to fix the damper in position.
The minimum flue sizes shown in Figure 2, Page 5 are
based on a 6’ chimney height using round pipe. Your
minimum flue size will vary based on input rate and
chimney height. Refer to the
National Fuel Gas Code
ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, Section 6.6, for details.
