Step 1 – Remove lower trim by releasing the screws. The number of screws will depend on fireplace size.

Step 2 – Attach glass suction cups to the glass and release the glass upper frame. The upper frame is attached with 10mm spring bolts.

The top glass trim gap will open once bolt is released and will allow the glass to be removed. Upper trim will stay attached and only open to be able to remove external glass.

Step 3 – Tilt the bottom of the window frame and rest it in the gap between the external frame and glass holder.

Step 4- Tilt the top of the window frame and lift out to clear the top edge of the unit. Place the window frame in a safe place to avoid damage.

Repeat the steps above in reverse order to install the external glass back.

No

The clearance to covered combustible material is a minimum of 2 1/2”. Covering the combustible material with non-combustible does not reduce the minimal clearance to combustible.

Clearance requirements:

2” to non-combustible

2 1/2” to combustible (and it must be covered)

Example: A non-combustible cement board is placed 2 inches from the back of the fireplace. The cement board used is 1/2 inch thick. Combustible material can be used behind cement board as it is a total of 2 1/2 inches ( 2” + ½” ) away from the back of the fireplace and is covered with a non- combustible.

Flare-FF-50 vent calculation example based on the manual:

Vent path from Survey:

  • 3 ft up from the fireplace
  • 45 elbow
  • 1ft
  • 45 elbow up
  • 15 ft vertical up
  • Vertical cap

Y vertical calculation

A – First Flue length =  3              =  3 ft
B – Vertical Flue length = 1 +15  = 16 ft
C – Roof Terminal = 1                   = 1.5 ft
H – Small Elbow (45°) = 2            =  2 ft

 Y Axis Parameters = 22.5 ft

Mantel Fireplace

X Horizontal calculation

D – Horizontal Flue length  = 1 ft
E – Elbow (90°)                        =  0
F – Elbow (lying 90°)              =  0
G – Wall Terminal                   =0

X Axis Parameters = 1

Flare Fireplaces recommends using 3 Ft of vertical run before any bend or turn . In some install scenarios it is possible to use less than 3 Ft.

Please contact Flare Fireplaces support team for vent path review & approval ( free service ) when wanting to use less than 3 Ft.
