9. Once the top metal knockouts are removed, an insulation
plug will also be pulled out.
NOTE: on some models, it may be necessary to use a
knife to cut the insulation plug out to the same diameter
as the metal knockout hole.
After the insulation plugs are removed, additional metal
knockouts must be removed from the inner heat shield
using a standard screwdriver and/or sheet metal snips.
See Figure 10.

INSTALLATION OF THE FLEX VENTING
11. Plan out the location of the "Y" adapter. Depending upon
whether the fireplace is vented vertically or horizontally,
will affect the placement of the "Y" adapter. The "Y"
adapter and venting require a 3" clearance to combustible
construction, therefore, wire or metal plumbers tape
should be used to secure the flex venting as required.
See Figures 2 and 3.
12. Install the 6" adaptor to the "Y" Branch Duct Connector
with (3) # 10 X ½" Self-drilling screws. This is needed
in order to connect the flex vent at each of the three
openings. See Figure 11.
