installation option 3 - rear opening
Suitable for Dynamic Heat Control™ Plus
Minimum air outlet opening dimension must be followed. The opening is required to be framed no more than 1.5" below the
enclosure top (see option 3 diagram) to avoid trapping heat in the upper areas and centered on the appliance center. Framing
the rear opening lower will overheat the appliance, the enclosure, and finishing material.
Dynamic Heat
Control™ rear air
outlet opening must
be located out of
reach of the user.
Opening must not
be restricted by fur-
nishings or decor.
Air outlet opening is required to be centered with the appliance.
WARNING
!
•
When using a rear air outlet opening,
it is critical that the adjoining room or
living spaces are in direct air communi-
cation (i.e. of an open plan configuration
or connected by a permanently open
doorway or archway). This prevents
the appliance from being in a negative
pressure more than that of the adjoining
room. Failure to follow these require-
ments can result in reversing the Dy-
namic Heat Control™ air flow and will
cause the appliance, safety barrier, and
finishing materials to overheat, creating
a fire hazard.
note:
Increasing the air outlet opening will allow the appliance, the glass barrier (if equipped), the temperatures on the surfaces above the fire-
place opening, and the enclosure be at cooler temperatures. It will also allow the air to circulate more effectively in the room. However,
if the appliance is equipped with the Dynamic Heat Control™ Plus, then the opening size must be 80 sq. in. for models
LV38-1, LV50-2, LVX38, and LVX50, or 160 sq. in. for models LV62, LV74, LVX62, and LVX74.
