Empire SAK26 Cast Iron Surround Adapter Kit
SAK26 is the manufacturer-listed adapter kit for using the SC336BL 6-inch cast iron surround on an Empire DVC26IN insert.
Exact application
| Part number | SAK26 |
|---|---|
| Insert family | DVC26IN |
| Listed cast iron surround | SC336BL |
Required companion selection
The SC336BL cast iron surround requires this adapter for the listed insert. The insert and surround are separate products. This is a conditional requirement for that cast iron surround configuration, not a universal requirement for every DVC26IN installation or every surround style.
Ordering and installation
Check the complete appliance model and the selected surround before ordering. Parts for the DVC20IN, DVC26IN and DVC28IN families have separate model-specific part numbers and are not interchangeable merely because the styling matches. Follow the component instructions and the appliance installation manual; keep the insert ventilation openings clear.
The manufacturer permits only its approved surrounds, shrouds and decorative fronts to cover integral grilles of the original solid-fuel fireplace. Do not seal those openings with improvised sheet-metal panels. Installation must follow the manufacturer documentation and applicable codes.
