Napoleon DYNAMIC HEAT CONTROL LVX38 Manuel D'installation page 5

2.1 installation option 1 - open enclosure (enclosure stops short of the ceiling)
NOT Suitable for Dynamic Heat Control™ Plus
It is one option not to finish or close in the top of the enclosure to provide the necessary air circulation path for the
Dynamic Heat Control™ system. Leaving a complete air outlet opening above the enclosure has been found to
be well accepted with respect to final appearance and offer minimal distraction. It also allows for efficient circulation
of air within the room. This option offers the simplest method for framing and installation. (If installing Dynamic Heat
Control™ Plus, refer to option 2 or 3 - DHC Plus cannot be used with option 1). Limit the air outlet opening
height to 4" to reduce the risk of items inadvertly falling into the enclosure. The air outlet opening must extend
around the entire perimeter, or the entire front face of the enclosure, where the enclosure runs from wall
to wall.

2.2 installation option 2 - front opening
Suitable for Dynamic Heat Control™ Plus
Minimum air outlet opening dimensions must be followed. The opening is required to be framed no more than 1.5" below the
enclosure top (see option 2 diagram) to avoid trapping heat in the upper areas and the air outlet opening centered on the appliance
center. Framing the air outlet opening lower will overheat the appliance, the enclosure, and finishing material.
