I. Factory-Built Sold Fuel Fireplace

A permit may be required for installations, fi nal approval is contingent of the authority having local jurisdiction. Consult insurance carrier, local building, fi re offi cials or authorities having jurisdiction about restrictions, installation inspec- tion, and permits.

Inspect the existing fi replace and chimney for any damage or fl aws such as burnouts, metal or refectory warping.

Inspection to a minimum of NFPA 211 Level II is recom- mended. All repairs must be made prior to installing an insert. The fi replace must be structurally sound and be able to support the weight of the solid-fuel insert

The factory-built chimney must be listed per UL 127 or ULC 610-M87 for all installations. Install thermal protection per this appliance listing requirements.

A full height 6 inch diameter stainless steel full height listed chimney liner must be installed meeting type HT (2100°F) requirements per UL 1777 (USA) or ULC S635 with “0” clearance to masonry (Canada). The full liner must be attached to the insert fl ue collar and to the top of the existing chimney.

The fl ue liner top support attachment must not reduce the air fl ow for the existing air-cooled chimney system. Re- install original factory-built chimney cap only. (See Sec- tion F., Prefabricated Metal Chimney)

To prevent room air passage to the chimney cavity of the

fireplace, seal either the damper area around the chimney liner or the insert surround. Circulating air chamber (i.e. in a steel fi replace liner or metal hearth circulator) may not be blocked. The air fl ow within and around the fi replace shall not be altered, blocked by the installation of the insert. (i.e. no louvers or cooling air inlet or outlet ports may be blocked by the insert or the insert surround.

See “H. Altering the Fireplace” for modifi cations allowed for factory-built fi replaces.

WARNING! Risk of Asphyxiation!

•DO NOT CONNECT THIS APPLIANCE TO A CHIMNEY FLUE SERVICING ANOTHER APPLIANCE OR TO ANY AIR DISTRIBUTION DUCT OR SYSTEM.
