Use high temperature silicone to seal the 
block-off plate to the unit. If necessary drill 
extra holes in the plate and the unit and 
secure with extra screws.
Note: Make sure the block-off plate is fl ush and 
fastened tightly to the WarmHearth.
Important: A tight joint between ma-
sonry and the fi replace is necessary 
to prevent heat from rolling up the 
front to the Face Header.
INSTALLING YOUR
CENTRAL HEATING
SYSTEM
The WarmHearth may be used  as a central 
forced air heating unit by adding ducting and 
a fan.

making sure it is pushed all the way down.  
Reach through the upper  louver opening 
and snip and bend out the lower edge of the 
collar in at least 4 places inside the fi replace 
with pliers so it can't be pulled out. 
INSTALLATION

the collar is fl ush with the front edge of the 
air vent frame.
Note: The fl ex duct can easily be trimmed 
shorter or stretched longer.
Note: Termination boxes require a
 
 
14-1/2"W x 15-3/8"H opening in com-
bustible materials.
8)  Locate and install the lower air vent next.  
A 7-3/4" x 7-3/4" opening is required to fi t  
the frame that is supplied. The vent must be 
installed in the chase and should be within 
12" of the fl oor.

be installed in all applications, 
otherwise serious overheating of 
the chase may result.

using the existing holes that normally secure 
the louvers, using the louver screws.  Make 
sure the top edge is up.
