FLUE TERMINATION LOCATION
This section is used to determine where your flue
termination will be located.
• Flue terminations shall not be recessed in walls or
sidings.
• EXTREMELY IMPORTANT: In heavy snow areas take
extra care to prevent blocking flue termination with snow
removal equipment.
• Flue gases exiting flue terminals are very hot and must
not be restricted to assure fireplace combustion is not
affected.
• Do not place, build any obstruction, plant any bushes
or for any reason attempt to conceal the flue termination.
To do so will affect the operation of the fireplace and may
be hazardous.
• This unit must always vent directly to outdoors.
Condensate Disposal
Where possible the condensate drainage pipe should
terminate at a suitable foul water discharge point, eg.
waste drain point washing machine waste point etc.
The HepVO waterless trap should be installed where
access can be maintained.
A P-trap can be used as an option instead of the HepVo
waterless trap.
Do not discharge condensate onto walkways, electrical
connections, earth stakes, copper pipes, waterways,
ponds etc.
