OVERVIEW

the SIx major Component SeCtIonS of the KIva fIreplaCe KIt are:

Firebox Assembly

Chimney System

Air Intake System

Gas Assembly (optional)

Face Frame

Finish

1. fIrebox aSSembly

The Firebox Assembly consists of three Firebox Sections. During

installation, these Firebox Sections are stacked to form a traditional

looking masonry rebox. The entire Firebox Assembly weighs less than

600 pounds and two people can lift each section. Special structural

support is not required because of its minimal weight.

2. ChImney SyStem

The function of the Chimney System is to evacuate smoke from the Firebox

Assembly to the outside. The Chimney System consists of two main

elements, the Chimney Chase and the Double Wall Chimney Pipe. The

Chimney Chase is the passage that conceals the Double Wall Chimney

Pipe. It is important that the Double Wall Chimney Pipe maintain a space

at least 2” from any combustible material.

3. aIr IntaKe SyStem

The major component of the Air Intake System is the Wall

Vent. It looks much like a common dryer vent, only larger.

The Air Intake System delivers outside air to support

three important functions.

The Air Intake System delivers cool outside air to the

outer chamber of the Double Wall Chimney Pipe to

cool the outer wall and reduce re hazard.

The Air Intake System provides cool air to circulate

and cool the space around the Firebox Assembly

behind the Face Frame.

The Wall Vent also supplies outside air to the

Combustion Air Tube, which is built into the Firebox

Base. The outside air enters the rebox area and

supports combustion instead of using the warm air from

the room, which greatly increases the efciency of the

replace.

4. GaS aSSembly (optIonal)

In addition to wood log burning, the Kiva Fireplace Kit has been tested

and approved for use with an optional natural gas or propane vented

Gas Logs Set or a Log Lighter available from Grand River Supply. If

the intended installation includes one of these gas devices, it will be

necessary to have a gas line brought into the rebox. This gas line can

easily be installed after the Firebox Assembly is in place but

before the Face Frame is xed into place.

5. faCe frame

The 10’ tall Face Frame is pre-fabricated of ½” tubular steel with ¼” Metal

Diamond Mesh attached. You can customize your installation with optional

Nichos and Bancos available from Grand River Supply. During installation

the Face Frame assembly will be attached to the Firebox . The Face Frame,

available in four styles, is what gives the Kiva Fireplace its unique look.

6. fInISh

A three-coat plaster process is the most popular nish applied to the

Fireplace.

Important: reaD thIS!

The Chimney Starter Collar is the rst section of Double Wall Chimney Pipe and mounts directly onto the top

of the Firebox Assembly. Each manufacturer of Double Wall Chimney Pipe has their own design and parts from

one manufacturer will not work with parts from another. There are three Chimney Starter Collars to t Double

Wall Chimney Pipe from three different manufacturers. The manufacturers are, FMI, Superior, and Heatilator

Series 300. A Chimney Starter Collar to match the manufacturer of Double Wall Chimney Pipe that will be

used for the installation must be specied when ordering a Kiva Fireplace Kit. The default manufacturer is

FMI.

Gas Log Kit: As well as wood burning, the Kiva Fireplace Kit has been approved for use with a vented Gas

Log Kit. The Gas Log Kit should incorporate an automatic shutoff device and comply with the Standard

for Decorative Gas Appliances for Installation in Vented Fireplaces, ANSI Z21.60 and must be installed in

accordance with the National Fuel Gas Code. The Gas Log Kit sold by Grand River Supply is pre-approved. The
