Initial Installation

QUALIFIED INSTALLERS ONLY

The height for the vent must be between 10ft (3.05m) and 35ft (10.67m).

Install sealed Vertical Vent Cap to prevent leakage of room air up through

chimney.

The intake is 2" (51mm) and the exhaust is 3" (76mm).

Measure the height of the chimney beforehand and purchase the

appropriate kit. Never attempt to over-stretch a flexible liner to

accommodate the height of the chimney. Any chimney over 15' (4.6m),

install the Sonnet 15’ 2” & 3” Flex Vent (part #50-1512) and the Sonnet

2” & 3” Flex Couplers (part #50-1513). Every joint in the venting must be

secured with three (3) #8 x 3/8” HWH sheet metal screws and an

appropriate sealant (either silicone or milpac).

The flue damper can be fully blocked open or removed for installation of

the Sonnet; the smoke shelves, shields and baffles may be removed if

attached by mechanical fasteners.

The chimney must be clean, in good working order and constructed of

non-combustible materials.

Make sure that all chimney cleanouts are tight fitting and will not permit

air to leak into the chimney.

Refractory, glass doors, screen rails, screen mesh and log grates can be

removed from the fireplace before installing the Sonnet.

insert flue collar and the fireplace chimney at the

and proper flame appearance. The amount of air

to the venturi may need to be adjusted using the

rod under the firebox (see Figure 8). Also refer to
