Vertical installations may display a very active flame. If this appearance is not desirable, the exhaust outlet may be
restricted with a Wolf Steel approved restrictor kit. This kit is not recommended for short vertical vent runs.
Depending on the model and/or year of your appliance, mounting holes may not exist.
