I.Removing Metal Floor of Factory-Built Firebox

The firebrick (refractory), glass doors, screen rails, screen mesh and log grates can be removed from a factory-built firebox in order to gain minimum insert opening require- ments.

Any smoke shelves, shields and baffles may be removed from a factory-built firebox if attached with mechanical fas- teners.

The metal floor of the factory-built firebox may be removed to facilitate the installation of the insert only when a 1 inch (25mm) airspace is provided between the insert and the floor of outer wrap.

If the floor is made of thin metal, we recommend using a Quarda-Fire floor protector, Part 811-0730, which is avail- able through your dealer.

Figure 12.1. Measure and mark the metal floor for cutting. With a drill, make a starter hole in each corner.

J. Altering the Factory-Built Fireplace

The fireplace must not be altered, except for the exceptions listed below. Do not removal the bricks and mortar from the existing fireplace.

The following modifications are premissible:

Removal of damper or locked in open position

Removal of smoke shelf or baffle

Removal of ember catches

Removel of fire grate

Removal of view screen/curtain

Removal of doors

External trim pieces which do not affect the operation of the fireplace may be removed providing they can be stored on or within the fireplace for reassembly if the insert is removed.

The permanent metal warning label provided must be attached to the back of the fireplace, with screws or nails, stating that the fireplace may have been altered to accommodate the insert, and must be returned to original condition for use as a conventional fireplace. Figure 12.4.

If the hearth extension is lower than the fireplace opening, the portion of the insert extending onto the hearth must be supported.

Manufacturer designed adjustable support kit can be ordered from your dealer.

Final approval of this installation type is contingent upon the authority having jurisdiction.

NOTE: Refer to chimney liner manufacturer for recom- mendations on supporting the liner. Installation into fireplaces without a permit will void the listing

WARNING! Risk of Fire!

Follow venting manufacturer’s clearances and instructions when installing venting system.

Figure 12.2. Using a saws-all, cut out the floor.

Keep sharp edge of metal floor away from power cord

Figure 12.3. Place the insert into the factory-built firebox. Ensure that the power cord can not be damaged by the sharp metal edge. You may need to cut out a notch to accommo- date the cord.

NOTICE: In Canada when using a factory-built chim- ney it must be safety listed, Type UL103 HT (2100oF) [1149oC] CLASS “A” or conforming to CAN/ULC-

S629M, STANDARD FOR 650oC FACTORY-BUILT CHIMNEYS.
