Figure 1: Power Vent Figure 2: Anti-Vibration Collar
We recommend attaching this collar as close to the
power vent as possible to reduce vibration from the
power vent through the vent pipe.
Use the provided self-tapping screws to attach the
vent pipe to both sides of the anti-vibration collar.
Use the provided lag screws to attach the power vent
to the site constructed riser or curb. There
are 8 holes around the base. (Two per side).

Under no circumstances shall a rheostat be used to alter the voltage supply to this unit.
Locate the replace as per the main instructions supplied. This kit can only be used in conjunction
with the Architectural Series Fireplaces. This installation must conform with local codes or, in the
absence of local codes, with the Natural Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, or the Natural Gas
and Propane Installation Code, CSA B149.1.
All electrical installation should be performed by a qualied electrician to national codes (CSA C22.1,
ANSI/NFPA 70) and/or local electrical codes.

When installing the power vent horizontally, ensure the side of the power vent with the attached
electrical junction box is facing downwards.
Use exterior silicone/caulk around the base of the power vent to seal it to the building envelope.
Any horizontal run leading to the power vent shall be sloped down to the outside at a minimum of 1/4
inch per foot of vent length.

An external, weather proof junction box is
provided and mounted to the power vent.
• The junction box can be moved to to the side
of the riser, allowing wires to come directly
from the chase and into the back of the
junction box. If the junction box is moved, ll
the open mounting holes in the power vent to
prevent leakage.
1. Drill a hole in the junction box to accommodate your approved water tight grommet depending on cable
routing method. Install the grommet/strain relief.
2. Pass the wires coming from the replace through the new grommet and secure the strain relief.
Connect the wires as shown (Figure 13) using wire nuts. Do not mix the 120V wire with the 24V wires -
Interconnecting the wires will damage the motor control and/or the circuit boards in the replace.
3. Re-install the cover plate with gasket.
Figure 13: T.S. Wiring diagram.
NOTE: The installer must supply;
• approved 14ga. household wire from the fireplace to the Power Vent, for the
120VAC power. and,
• minimum 18ga, 2 conductor (bell/alarm) wire from the fireplace to the power
vent for the 24VAC blower control.
See the fireplace manual for connections at the fireplace.
