WARNING

Ensure clearances to combustibles are maintained when building a mantel or shelves above the fireplace.

Elevated temperatures on the wall or in the air above the fireplace can cause melting, discoloration or damage

to decorations, a television (TV) or other electronic components.

IMPORTANT NOTICE

Most television manufacturers instruct the homeowner to not place the television above a heat source. Doing so may

negatively affect the longevity of the television and may negate the warranty. If you do place a television above the

ﬁreplace, please be aware of the large amount of heat generated by the ﬁreplace and consider placing the television

above the ﬁreplace at 12” minimum on a ﬂush wall and at 18" for a recessed installation, to reduce the amount of heat

that reaches the television. The homeowner must understand that IHP does not take responsibility for any negative

impact to televisions placed near this ﬁreplace.

NOTICE

This kit must be installed by a qualiﬁed installer,

service agency, or gas supplier at the time of the

ﬁreplace installation. These instructions must

be used in conjunction with the installation and

operation manual provided with the ﬁreplace.

WARNING

DO NOT cover or place objects in front of the heat

opening within 76 inches above ﬂoor level as

discharge temperatures are hot!

WARNING

Minimum clearances below the ceiling is 4”. Note

that staining or streaking may occur on light colored

ceilings due to any dust, etc. in air ﬂow.

HEATFLO™ KIT INSTALLATION

FIREPLACE PREPARATION

NOTE: The installation of this HeatFlo system must be done at the

framing stage. Some work can be performed before the ﬁreplace

is placed in the framing, though installing the collars onto the

ﬁreplace must be done after to prevent interference with framing

header when placing ﬁreplace.

NOTE: Before the following steps are performed, it is recommended

to prepare the ﬁreplace top spacers, install the non-combustible

ﬁreboard standoffs, and install the header shield. Refer to ﬁreplace

installation instructions.

1. Remove four knockouts in ﬁreplace top and discard (Figure 4).

2. Remove four precut plugs in insulation between ﬁreplace top

and inner heat deﬂector (Figure 4).

3. Remove four knockouts from inner heat deﬂector (Figure 4).

4. Installﬁreplaceintoframingaccordingtotheﬁreplaceinstallation

instructions.

5. Insert four small collars into knockout openings in ﬁreplace top

with tabs up (Figure 5). Tabs should be resting on ﬁreplace top.

6. Place four large collars with ﬂange down on ﬁreplace top aligned

with small collars (Figure 5).

7. Place four collar mounting plates over large collars and attach

with screws provided (Figure 5).

8. Complete ﬁreplace preparation by removing ﬂat hood from

convection opening and replace with angled hood provided

(Figure 6).

Figure 7 - Placing Register Assembly

HEATFLO INSTALLATION

1. Mount the register into the framed opening by tilting forward and

inserting from the back while rotating into place with register

resting on lower stud of framed opening (Figures 7 and 8).

2. Attach register top mounting ﬂange to top of framed opening

using screws (Figure 10).

NOTE: Top mounting ﬂange is not intended to carry all the weight.

The register rests on the lower stud of the framed opening and

support brackets.

3. Ensure the register is leveled and its outlet is not distorted,

then secure using support brackets (Figures 8 and 9). Support

brackets must be secured to both register and framing.

4. With ﬁreplace and register fully secured, attach the provided ﬂex

pipes to the collars on ﬁreplace and secure with provided gear

clamps (Figure 11).

5. Stretch ﬂex pipe to slightly less than desired length.

6. With the ﬂex pipes attached to ﬁreplace, connect the ﬂex pipes to

7. After wall ﬁnishing and facing details are completed, attach trim

to register on both sides with provided screws.

NOTES:

• DO NOT SLICE OR RUPTURE FLEX PIPES!

• Flex pipe stretches up to 2.9 times its compressed length (i.e.,

24” long pipe will stretch to approximately 70” maximum).

• Minimum allowed distance from base of ﬁreplace to register vent

opening is 76”. Maximum is 20ft.

• Maintain 1” min. clearance to combustibles around ﬂex pipes.

• Keep ﬂex pipes as vertical as possible to maintain airﬂow.

• Do not let ﬂex pipes contact ﬁreplace venting.

•NOTE: Trim has 1” of adjustment to allow for different thickness

of facing materials.

WIRING NOTE: Do Not let ﬂex pipes come in contact with any

type of wiring.

CAUTION: Flex pipe should be stretched out from its compressed state

before installation. DO NOT over stretch the Flex. Make sure the ﬂex pipe

is slightly loose (but not sagging) when installed to allow for expansion

and contraction. Flex pipe must not come in contact with combustible

materials. Excessively loose ﬂex could contact combustible materials

and cause a ﬁre hazard.

FINISHING FIREPLACE

The appliance is designed to mate with 1/2” wall sheathing materials such

as drywall, plywood, wood composites, or non-combustible materials.

Finishing and Sealing Joints

All joints between the ﬁnished wall sheathing and the appliance must be

sealed with non-combustible materials. Sealants, such as caulk or mastic

used to seal the gap between the wall and the ﬁreplace, should be rated

at a minimum continuous exposure to 300 ºF.

Finishing Around Opening with Gypsum Wallboard

Gypsum wallboard (drywall) joints adjacent to the ﬁreplace opening,

including the non-combustible board on the appliance, require special

attention to minimize cracking. When installing gypsum wallboard around

the ﬁreplace, install the hole for the ﬁreplace opening in a single wallboard

sheet, if possible. This will minimize the joints adjacent to the ﬁreplace

opening.

Tape wall board joints around the ﬁreplace opening with ﬁberglass-mesh

tape. It will provide a more crack-resistant joint than paper tape. Fill, smooth

and ﬁnish wall joints with chemically setting-type joint compound. It will

provide a more crack-resistant joint than air-drying light-weight compound.

NOTE: NEVER install combustible material (wall ﬁnish, surround, trim,

etc.) on, in front of, or overlapping any part of the ﬁreplace front face.

NOTE: The HeatFlo Register Trim ships from the factory painted black

and it may be painted another color to match the wall color. Use high

temperature paint with a minimum 400°F continuous rating. Do not ﬁnish

over any of the opening in the trim outlet.
