It uses a 4" vent to the top of the chimney and a 4" intake that runs part way up the chimney.
the key to a better heat from a gas or wood in house fireplace is the placement of the heatalaterers (heatvents)
keep in mine that heat travels up and therefore a vent 3 foot from the floor instead of 2=3 feet off the ceiling will give you much better heat, 2 to 3 feet above the cold air vents on the floor is best.
My gas insert fireplace does not heat well, any ideas?
