standard as a FACTORY BUILT FIREPLACE.
CAUTION: The structural integrity of the mobile home
floor, and ceiling/roof must be maintained.
SELECTING LOCATION
To determine the safest and most efficient location for the
fireplace, you must take into consideration the following
guidelines:
1.) The location must allow for proper clearances (see
figures 1 & 2).
2.) Consider a location were the fireplace would not be
affected by drafts, air conditioning ducts, windows or
doors.
3.) A location that avoids the cutting of joists or roof
rafters will make installation easier.
4.) An outside air kit is included with this fireplace. For
more details refer to section on outside air kit
installation on page 4.
MINIMUM CLEARANCES TO COMBUSTIBLES
• Back and side of fireplace -------------- ¾” minimum
Note: The ¾” clearance is not required at the nailing flanges
• Floor* ------------------------------------- 0” minimum

WARNING: Do not pack required air spaces with
FRAMING AND INSTALLING THE FIREPLACE
y
STEP 1: Frame the opening for the fireplace using the
dimensions shown in figures 1 & 2.
STEP 2: If the fireplace is to be installed directly on carpeting,
tile (other than ceramic), or any combustible material other
than wood flooring, the fireplace must be installed upon a
metal or wood panel extending the full width and depth of the
fireplace.
STEP 3: Set the fireplace directly in front of this opening and
slide the unit back until the nailing flanges touch the side
framing.
STEP 4: Check the level of the fireplace and shim with sheet
metal if necessary. Make sure the unit is balanced on each
side.
STEP 5: Before securing fireplace to prepared framing, the
ember protector (provided), must be placed between the hearth
extension (not supplied), and under the bottom front edge of
the fireplace to protect against glowing embers falling
through. If the fireplace is to be installed on a raised platform,
a Z-type ember protector (not supplied) must be fabricated to
fit your required platform height. The ember protector should
extend under the fireplace a minimum of 1 - 1/2”. The ember
protector should be made of galvanized sheet metal (28-gage
minimum) to prevent corrosion.
STEP 6: Secure the fireplace to the floor using tie-down straps
(see figure 3) to prevent shifting.
Figure 1 FRAMING DIMENSION
Figure 2 CORNER INSTALLATION
Figure 3 TIE-DOWN STRAP
HEARTH EXTENSION
A hearth extension projecting a minimum of 16” in front of
and a minimum of 8” beyond each side of the fireplace
opening is required to protect combustible floor construction
in front of the fireplace. Fabricate a hearth extension using a
material which meets the following specifications: a layer of
non-combustible, inorganic material having a thermal
conductivity of K = 0.84 BTU IN/FT. HR. F (or less) at 1”
thick. For example, if the material selected has a K factor of
0.25, such as glass fiber, the following formula would apply:
0.25 x 1.0” = 0.30 thickness required
0.84
Thermal conductivity “K” of materials can be obtained from
the manufacturer or supplier of the non-combustible material.
If the hearth extension is to be covered, use non-combustible
material such as tile, slate, brick, concrete, metal, glass,
marble, stone etc. Provide a means to prevent the hearth
extension from shifting and seal gap between the fireplace
frame and hearth extension with a non-combustible material
(see figure 4).
Figure 4 HEARTH EXTENSION
WARNING: Hearth extension is to be installed onl
as illustrated.

OUTSIDE AIR KIT (MODEL AK-6)
The installation of an outside air kit should be performed
during the rough framing of the fireplace due to the nature of
its location. Outside combustion air is accessed through the
mobile home floor (Refer to AK-6 Installation Instructions for
details). In some instances, a wall installation is required (see
Figure 5). Note: An AK-6WAI Air Kit must be ordered when
a sidewall installation is required (see accessories on page 12).
This fireplace is equipped with a barometric damper, which
allows outside air to flow in the fireplace automatically when
needed.
Figure 5 OUTSIDE AIR KIT
FAN KIT ASSEMBLY (BK3)
A fan kit assembly is preinstalled in this fireplace. Use of
blowers or fans other than manufactured by DESA voids the
warranty. The fan is operated by pressing the rocker switch
located at the lower right hand corner of the fireplace face.
Fan kit electrical connections are made through the electrical
cover plate located on the side of the fireplace as shown in
figure 6a.
Figure 6a FAN SWITCH AND STRAIN RELIEF

CHIMNEY PIPE
The DESA chimney system consists of 12, 18, 24, 36 and 48
inch, snap-lock double-wall pipe segments, planned for
maximum adaptability to individual site requirements. Actual
lengths gained after fitting overlaps must be taken into
consideration (lineal gain) and are given in the lineal gain
chart (see figure 7).
There are two vent kits available, which have been specially
designed for common installations in manufactured (mobile
homes): MW8K (8’ Vent Kit) and MW9K (9’ Vent Kit). The
contents of these kits are listed under accessories on page 12.
Most chimney systems for manufactured houses require a
standard straight installation as described in this section. If an
uncommon offset installation is required, see page 10.
Figure 7 LINEAL GAIN
Important: If the height of the chimney assembly exceeds
requirements for transportation of the home, the chimney
installation may be completed after the home is sited.
Note: the termination must always be installed after the home
is sited.

ASSEMBLY AND INSTALLATION OF THE DOUBLE
y
WALL CHIMNEY SYSTEM
Each double wall chimney section is consist of a galvanized
outer pipe, a stainless steel inner flue pipe and a wire spacer.
The pipe sections must be assembled independently as the
chimney is installed. When connecting chimney directly to
the fireplace, the inner flue pipe section must be installed first
with the lanced side up. The outer pipe section can then be
installed over the flue pipe section with the hemmed end up.
Press down on each pipe section until the lances securely
engage the hem on the fireplace starter. The wire will assure
the proper spacing between the inner and outer pipe sections.
WARNING: The opening in the collar around the

chimney enclosure.
at the top of the fireplace must not be
Continue to assemble chimney sections as outlined above,
making sure that both the inner and outer pipe sections are
locked together. When installing double wall “snap lock”
chimney together, it is important to assure the joint between
the chimney sections is locked. Check by pulling chimney
upward after locking. The chimney will not come apart if
properly locked. It is not necessary to add screws to keep the
chimney together (exception – see page 6 figure 12).
ADJUSTABLE FIRESTOP THIMBLE (FST-A):
The Adjustable Firestop Thimble Assembly (FST-A) is used
to provide the necessary air space and clearance between the
chimney pipe and the insulation in the attic space of a
manufactured home.
To install the thimble assembly, determine the distance
between the ceiling joist and the roof framing. Attach the
adjustable thimble to the firestop spacer so that the assembly
will cover the distance. The adjustable thimble should be even
with or above the roofline (see thimble extensions on page 12
if a longer thimble is needed). Sheet metal screws or staples
may be used to attach the thimble to the firestop spacer.
Figure 8 FIRESTOP THIMBLE
An opening large enough to allow the insertion of the firestop
thimble assembly will be required in the ceiling. Attach the
firestop/thimble assembly to the ceiling/ceiling joist using
screws or staples as shown in figure 8. A minimum of 8
screws or staples should be used.
Figure 9 FIRESTOP THIMBLE ASSEMBLY
The firestop thimble assembly should also be used where there
is a cathedral ceiling, insulation barrier and roof, all in one
assembly in a manufactured home. The FST-A Thimble can
be used in any one of three common ceiling pitches: flat,
12”/96”, and 30”/144”.
An opening big enough to allow the insertion of the firestop
thimble assembly will be required. This opening depends on
the pitch of your ceiling. If your ceiling is a flat or 12”/96”
pitch, you must use the adapter plate provided to seal
unwanted openings since the opening in the firestop is an
ellipse. For 30”/144” pitch, discard the adapter.
Figure 10 FIRESTOP THIMBLE
-5 - For more information, visit www.desatech.com
If the adapter is needed, secure it onto the firestop using holes
j
r
p
provided (see figure 10). The row of holes on the sides of the
thimble is provided to allow for pitch variances. Position the
firestop assembly and thimble to desired angle and secure with
screws provided. Insert the thimble and firestop into the
prepared opening and secure to the ceiling by nailing through
the firestop flanges. The thimble should be even with or
above the roofline. Thimble extensions are available (as an
option) when required. See “accessories” on page 12.
NOTE: If there is a second story in the home, firestop
spacer V3600FS-8DM will be required. See “Firestop
Spacer”.

Figure 12 ELBOW OFFSET
FIRESTOP SPACERS (V3600FS-8DM)
Firestop spacers are required at each point where the chimney
penetrates a floor space. Their purpose is to establish and
maintain the required clearance between the chimney and the
combustible materials. When the pipe passes through a
framed opening into a living space above, the firestop must be
placed onto the ceiling from below as shown in figure 13.
Figure 13 FIRESTOP SPACER
PENETRATING THE ROOF
To maintain a 1-inch clearance to the pipe on a roof with a
pitch, a rectangular opening must be cut.
STEP 1: Determine the center point through which the pipe
will penetrate the roof.
STEP 2: Determine the center point of the roof. Pitch is the
distance the roof drops over a given span, usually 12 inches.
A 6/12 pitch means that the roof drops 6 inches for each 12
inches one measure horizontally down from the roof rafters.
STEP 3: Use the roof opening chart (figure 14) to determine
the correct opening length and flashing required.
STEP 4: Remove the shingles around the opening measured
and cut out this section.
STEP 5: Add the next sections of the pipe until the end
penetrates the roofline. Check to see that the proper
clearances are maintained. Extend chimney by adding
sections of double wall pipe until pipe is a minimum of 30
inches above the highest point of the roof cutout. Termination
and chimney must extend a minimum of 36 inches above the
highest point where it passes through roof.

Figure 15 FLASHING INSTALLATION
INSTALLING FLASHING ON A METAL ROOF
When installing the flashing on a metal roof, it is required that
putty tape be used between the flashing and the roof. The
flashing must be secured to the roof using #8 x ¾” screws and
then sealed with roof coating to prevent leakage through the
screw holes. A roof coating must also be applied around the
perimeter of the flashing to provide a proper seal.
STORM COLLAR INSTALLATION (SC1)
Place storm collar over pipe and slide down until it is snug
against the open edge of the flashing (see figure 16). Apply
waterproof caulk around the perimeter of the collar to provide
a proper seal.
Note: Storm collar is required but can be installed after the
home is sited.
Figure 16 STORM COLLAR
TERMINATIONS / SPARK ARRESTOR
The fireplace system must be terminated with the listed round
top or chase terminations. In any case, refer to the installation
instructions supplied with the termination. The terminations
approved for this fireplace are the RTL-8DM, which can be
use for flashing or chase and the ETL-8DM, for chase style
termination only. Figure 17 shows an RTL-8DM round top
termination.
Figure 17 TERMINATION
CAUTION: Do not seal openings on the rooftop flashing.
Follow the installation instructions provided with the
termination bein
used.
.
NOTE: In the rare instance there is a problem with the side
driven rain or wind or the chimney is not drafting properly, an
ADS-8DM Anti Draft Shield can be used with round
terminations.
- 7 - For more information, visit www.desatech.com
CHASE INSTALLATIONS
Instructions for chase installations are included with the chase
style termination chosen. In a multiple chase installation, be
sure to provide adequate distance between terminations to
prevent smoke spillage from one termination to another. We
suggest that terminations be separated at least 24 inches,
center to center and stacked at vertical height difference of 18
inches (see figure 18).
Figure 18 MULTIPLE CHASE INSTALLATION
10-FOOT RULE
All flue gas outlet of chimney termination must extend a
minimum of 3 feet in height above the highest point where it
passes through the roof and must be at least 2 feet above the
highest point of the roof that is within a horizontal distance of
10 feet (see figure 19).
Figure 19 10-FOOT RULE
FINISHING THE FIREPLACE
Combustible materials, such as wallboard, gypsum board,
sheet rock, drywall, plywood, etc. may make direct contact
with sides and top periphery of the fireplace face. It is
important that combustible materials do not overlap the face
itself. Brick, glass, tile or other non-combustible materials
may overlap the front face provided they do not obstruct
essential openings like louvered slots or any other opening.
When overlapping with a non-combustible facing material,
use only non-combustible mortar or adhesive.
MANTEL
A mantel may be installed if desired (see figure 20),
Woodwork such as wood trims, mantels, or any other
combustible material projecting from the front face must not
be placed within 9 inches of the fireplace opening (and within
6 inches of the top louver opening). Combustible materials
above 9 inches and projecting more than 1-1/2 inches from the
fireplace must not be placed less than 12 inches from the top
opening of the fireplace (NFPA STD 211, Sec. 7-3.3.3).
Figure 20 MANTEL CLEARANCE
NOTE: HUD requirements may supersede these minimum
dimensions.
OPERATING GUIDELINES AND MAINTENANCE
INSTRUCTIONS
GLASS DOORS
Glass doors are standard with the C36MW fireplace. When
the fireplace is in operation, doors must in FULLY OPENED
or FULLY CLOSED position only or a fire hazard may be
created (see figure 21).
A fireplace equipped with glass doors operates much
differently than a fireplace with an open front. A fireplace
with glass doors has a limited amount of air for combustion.
Excessive heat within the fireplace can result if too large a fire
is built or if the combustion air gate is not completely open.
The following tips should be followed to assure that both the
fireplace and the glass door retain their beauty and function
properly. Both the flue damper and the glass doors must be
fully opened before starting the fire. This will provide
sufficient combustion air and maintain safe temperatures in
the firebox.

Figure 21 GLASS DOORS
IMPORTANT: The glass must be allowed to warm slowly
and evenly. The tempered glass will withstand a gradual
temperature rise to 550 degrees Fahrenheit, which is more
than a normal fire will generate. Such materials as pitch/wax
laden logs, very dry mill end lumber, and large amounts of
paper or cardboard boxes can create an excessively hot fire
and should not be burned in this fireplace. Always keep the
fire well back from the doors and never allow flames to
contact the glass.

CLEANING THE GLASS
Clean the glass with any commercial glass cleaner or soap and
water. Do not use any abrasive material to clean the glass. Do
not clean the glass with any cool water if the glass is still hot
from the fire and smoke.
OPTIONAL GAS LINE INSTALLATION
Gas line hook up should be done by your supplier or a
qualified service person.
NOTE: Before you proceed, make sure your gas supply is
turned off.
A gas line may be installed for the purpose of installing a
vented or vent-free gas appliance available through your local
distributor. Use only a ½ inch black iron pipe and appropriate
fittings. When installing a gas line, a shut-off valve designed
for installation outside the appliance is recommended.
STEP 1: To install, remove the knockout indentation on the
refractory, (or firebrick), wall located above the refractory
hearth floor. The knockout indentation must be firmly tapped
with any solid object until it is released. Remove fragmented
portions of refractory (see figure 22).
Figure 22 GAS LINE KNOCKOUT
STEP 2: Remove gas line cover plate on either side of
fireplace and pull out insulation (if any) from gas line conduit
sleeve. Save insulation for reuse.
STEP 3: Run a ½ inch black iron gas line into the fireplace
through the rear at gas line conduit sleeve (if using a raised
platform, add height). Provide sufficient gas line into
fireplace chamber for fitting connection (see figure 23).
NOTE: Secure incoming gas line to wood framing to provide
rigidity for threaded end.
Figure 23 GAS LINE INSTALLATION
STEP 4: Repack insulation around gas line and into sleeve
opening. Seal any gaps between gas line and refractory
knockout hole with refractory cement or commercial furnace
cement. Install the gas appliance or cap-off gas line if desired.
CAUTION: All gas piping and connections must be teste
for leaks after the installation is completed. After ensuring
that the gas valve is on, apply a commercial leak detectio
solution to all connections and joints. Bubbles forming
show a leak. Correct all leaks at once. DO NOT USE AN
OPEN FLAME FOR LEAK TESTING AND DO NOT
OPERATE ANY APPLIANCE IF A LEAK IS
DETECTED. LEAK TESTING SHOULD BE DONE BY
A
UALIFIED SERVICE PERSON.
