10 V ertical Height (Extension Kit) It is simple to determine which kit is needed for vertical height. T ake the total height (to the top of the flue) required and comparing that to “F dimension” in the chart #1, it can be determined which kit needs to be used vertically . FIGURE 1 1. FIGURE 12. CHART # 1 . BTU’s DIMENSION “F” (IN INCHES)[...]

11 ALL INST ALLA TIONS For ease of assembly the installation of the various kit combinations has been broken into individual sections. The two steps below are common to all installations.
