Your replace is designed to be used in zero
clearance installations. Wall or framing material
can be placed directly against any exterior sur-
face on the back, sides or top of your replace,
except where standoff spacers are integrally
attached. If standoff spacers are attached to your
replace, these spacers can be placed directly
against wall or framing material. See framing
details on page 7.
If you plan on installing a television or enter-
tainment center recessed above your replace, it
is recommended that you maintain a minimum
18" above top of louver opening.
When locating termination cap, it is important
to observe the minimum clearances shown in
Figure 7, page 8.
If recessing into a wall, you can avoid extra
framing by positioning your replace against
an already existing framing member.
Do not recess termination cap into a wall or
siding.
You may paint the termination cap with 450ºF
(232ºC) heat-resistant paint to coordinate with
the exterior nish.
There must not be any obstruction such as
bushes, garden sheds, fences, decks or util-
ity buildings within 24" from the front of the
termination cap.
Do not locate termination cap where excessive
snow or ice build up may occur. Be sure to
clear vent termination area after snow falls to
prevent accidental blockage of venting system.
When using snow blowers, do not direct snow
towards vent termination area.
