Framing can be constructed before or after the replace
is set in place, however, most installers build the frame
before setting the replace.
Frame replace with 2 x 4 lumber or heavier materials.
Refer to framing dimensions in Figure 1 for basic replace
specications.
Framing should be positioned to accommodate
wall covering and replace facing material.
Wiring should be installed by a certied electrician.
Turn off circuit breaker before wiring models.
Once replace is secured, complete wiring the fan kit.
Remove knockout in the center of the back of the EB1 and
install listed cable clamps. Feed electrical wire through
listed cable clamp leaving approximately six (6) inches of
wire exposed through the EB1. Secure listed cable clamp
to the wire.
Attach white wire from power source to one (1) wire of
receptacle and secure with nut. Attach black wire from
power source to the other wire of receptacle and secure
with nut. Be sure nuts are secured tightly.
Secure EB1 assembly to inside of electrical box coverplate
using two screws. Attach cover to face of the EB1 while
being careful to position excess wire completely within the
EB1, then attach coverplate to replace.
Since you have already planned the chimney run, you
should know exactly how the installation is to be accom-
plished - how much pipe is required, the number of elbows,
if any, and type of termination to be used.
Report to your dealer any parts damaged in
shipment, specically check the end connection of chimney
sections and elbows.
The EWF36A replace must use Vermont Castings
Group model triple wall 8” chimney components only. The
installation procedure described in this manual applies
only to this system.
To mark the centerline of the ue, put the replace in nal
position and measure out from the wall: 9¹⁄₂" (241mm). Mark
a spot on the ceiling directly above the replace. Draw a
line parallel to the back wall through this mark. (Fig. 8)
Using a plumb bob positioned directly over center point
of replace ue collar, mark the ceiling to establish the
chimney center point. (Fig. 8)
In order to clear an obstruction, it may be necessary to
offset chimney from vertical. This is accomplished by us-
ing elbows. Use the 30˚ Offset Elbow table on Page 6 to
determine proper offset and parts required.
Each offset requires two (2) elbows. The second elbow
is equipped with support straps. It is very important to
install the second elbow in each offset as close to the ceil-
ing or support as possible so that the elbow straps can be
secured to framing members to help support the weight
of the chimney.
Determine offset distance of your chimney arrangement
from centerline of replace to centerline of chimney where
it is to pass through ceiling.
Locate center point of the chimney on ceiling as though a
straight up chimney arrangement is to be used. Measure
your offset dimension from straight up chimney center
point on ceiling.
