VENTING INSTALLATION
Continued
There are three vent kits available which have been specially designed
for common installations in manufactured (mobile) homes: MW8K (8'
ventkit),MW9K(9'ventkit)andMW8K-HT(8'HTventkit).Contentsof
these kits are listed under Accessories on page 20. IMPORTANT: If height
of chimney assembly exceeds requirements for transportation of home,
chimney installation may be completed after home is sited.
NOTE: Termination must always be installed after the home is sited.
ASSEMBLY AND INSTALLATION OF DOUBLE WALL CHIMNEY
SYSTEM
Each double wall chimney section consists of a galvanized outer pipe, a
stainless steel inner flue pipe and a wire spacer. Pipe sections must be assembled independently as chimney is installed. When connecting chimney
directly to fireplace, inner flue pipe section must be installed first with lanced
side up. Outer pipe section can then be installed over flue pipe section with
hemmed end up. Press down on each pipe section until lances securely
engage hem on fireplace starter. The wire spacer will assure proper spacing
between inner and outer pipe sections.
WARNING
The opening in the collar around the chimney at the
top of the fireplace must not be obstructed. Never
use blown insulation to fill the chimney enclosure.

Continue to assemble chimney sections as outlined above, making sure
that both inner and outer pipe sections are locked together. When installing double wall snap-lock chimney together, it is important to assure that
the joint between chimney sections is locked. Check by pulling chimney
upward after locking. Chimney will not come apart if properly locked. It
is not necessary to add screws to keep chimney together (exception, see
Figure 16, page 11).
ADJUSTABLE FIRESTOP THIMBLE
This adjustable thimble adjusts to the most commonly used ceiling
pitches automatically. Refer to the following procedure for installing the
adjustable thimble:
The adjustable thimble may be installed around the chimney components
at assembly or the chimney components may be inserted though the
installed thimble.
Install the thimble from below a finished roof and ceiling assembly. Push
the thimble assembly (tube section first) up into an already prepared opening and secure open end of the thimble base to the finished underside of
the roof and ceiling assembly (Figure 11).
Note: The two screws on which the thimble base pivots may be removed
and reinstalled into any of the series of placement holes provided for the
adjustment of the adjustable thimble's point of rotation (Figure 11A).
Adjust the pivot screens to locate the open end of the tube section as
required for the roof line. Additional screws may be placed at the high
and low points of the thimble base in the tabs provided.
Place the thimble base against the finished roof and ceiling assembly and
secure it to the framing with screws or nails. The thimble is self-adjusting
around inserted chimney components. Thimble extensions are available
and may be installed into the adjustable thimble's tube section as needed
to extend the thimble through the roof-line. Secure the thimble extension
to the tube section with screws no more than 1/2" in length.
Pivot
Screw
Figure 11A - Attaching Adjustable Thimble
Position appropriate thimble/firestop spacer combination at ceiling and
nail temporarily with two (2) 8d nails or equivalent fasteners (see Figures
12A, 12B and 12C). Use one fastener on opposite sides to hold thimble/
firestop spacercombination in position. Nail permanently, using at least
two (2) more fasteners, after chimney sections have been assembled
through the thimble/firestop spacer combination and after any necessary adjustments
have been made. Firestop spacer must be secured by at least four (4)
fasteners when completely installed.
Note: If there is a room above ceiling level, firestop spacer must be
installed on the bottom side of the ceiling. If an attic is above ceiling
level, firestop thimble must be installed on the bottom side of ceiling
joist (Figure 12).
Note: The installation of the thimble extension is not required in manufactured homes having ventilated attic spaces, when the chimney height
is equal to or greater than 12 feet.
Ensure the thimble penetrates the roof opening. The thimble must extend
completely through the ceiling or roof cavity to the outermost plane of
the roof. Note: Thimble extensions are available from your dealer for
constructions in which the distance between the outside of the roof and
the inside of the ceiling exceeds 13". The thimbles and their extensions
provide for zero clearances to combustibles and must be used at the
ceiling/roof in manufactured homes (see Figures 12B and 12C, page 9).

PENETRATING ROOF
To maintain a 1" clearance to pipe on a roof with a pitch, a rectangular
opening must be cut.
1. Determine center point through which pipe will penetrate the roof.
2. Determine center point of the roof. Pitch is the distance the roof drops
over a given span, usually 12". A 6/12 pitch means that the roof drops
6" for each 12" measured horizontally down from roof rafters.
3. Use roof opening chart (Figure 13) to determine correct opening
length and flashing required.
4. Remove shingles around opening measured. Cut out this section.
5. Add next sections of pipe until end penetrates roof line. Check to see
that proper clearances are maintained. Extend chimney by adding
sections of double wall pipe until pipe is minimum of 30" above
highest point of roof cutout. Termination and chimney must extend
a minimum of 36" above highest point where it passes through roof.

OPTIONAL GAS LINE INSTALLATION
Permanently Located (Sited) Homes Only
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 appliance available through your local distributor. Use only a 1/2"
black iron pipe and appropriate fittings. When installing a gas line, a
shutoff valve designed for installation outside appliance is recommended.
1. Remove knockout indentation on refractory or firebrick wall located
above the refractory hearth floor. Knockout indentation must be firmly
tapped with any solid object such as a 1/2" dowel until it is released.
Remove fragmented portions of refractory (see Figure 24).
2. Remove gas line cover plate located on either side of fireplace and
pull out insulation from gas line conduit sleeve. Save insulation for
reuse. Replace screws.

FINISHING FIREPLACE
Combustible materials, such as wallboard, gypsum board, sheet rock, drywall, plywood, etc. may make direct contact with sides and top around the
fireplace face. It is important that combustible materials do not overlap the
face itself. Brick, glass, tile or other noncombustible materials may overlap
the front face provided they do not obstruct essential openings like louvered
slots or any other opening. When overlapping with a noncombustible facing
material, use only noncombustible mortar or adhesive.
IMPORTANT: Glass must be allowed to warm slowly and evenly. Tempered
glasswillwithstandagradualtemperatureriseto550°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 fire back
from doors and never allow flames to contact glass.
MANTELS
A mantel may be installed if desired (see Figure 26). Woodwork such
as wood trims, mantels or any other combustible material projecting
from the front face must not be placed within 9" of the fireplace opening.
Combustible materials above 9" and projecting more than 1-1/2" from
the fireplace must not be placed less than 12" from the top opening of
the fireplace (NFPA 211, Section - Clearance from Combustible Material).
NOTE: HUD requirements may supersede these minimum dimensions.

OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE GUIDELINES
GLASS DOORS
Glass doors are standard with fireplace. When fireplace is in operation,
doors must be FULLY OPENED or FULLY CLOSED position only or a fire
hazard may be created (see Figure 27).
A fireplace equipped 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 fireplace can result if too large a
fire is built or if combustion air gate is not completely open. The following
tips should be followed to assure that both fireplace and glass door retain
their beauty and function properly. Both flue damper and glass doors
must be fully opened before starting the fire. This will provide sufficient
combustion air and maintain safe temperatures in firebox.
