Your EPI 1401 fireplace insert must be installed only into a solid fuel burning fireplace that is at least 14 inches deep 26 inches wide and 22 inches high with an approved lined chimney at least 15 feet high (4.6m). This minimum re- cess can only be achieved if the opening height is suffi- cient enough to allow the connector to fit under the non- combustible facing. The fireplace and chimney must be constructed in accordance with all national and local build- ing code standards.
HINT FOR INSTALLING PORCELAIN ENAMEL INSERTS:
Ensure the base of the porcelain side pan- els are protected from rubbing against the hearth when sliding your insert into the masonry fireplace.
PRIOR TO INSTALLATION
Clean all ashes out of the inside of the fireplace. Make sure that the chimney and fireplace are free of cracks, loose mortar, creosote deposits, blockage or other signs of deterioration. If necessary, have any repair work done by a qualified professional before installing the insert.
Combustible material must not protrude more that 1" to the side of the insert or between the mantle and the top of the insert.

In Canada: Install a listed 6 inch diameter flexible stainless steel liner from the top of the chimney to the insert flue collar. Attach a stainless steel liner connec- tor or elbow to the liner and insert onto the flue collar. Fasten with three screws. Secure the top of the liner to the chimney cap using a liner support and chimney flashing. Cap the top of the chimney liner assembly using an approved rain cap.
In the United States: While it is not required, it is recommended that a chimney liner be installed that is continuous from the insert to the top of the chimney, particularly when the insert is installed in a basement. For this type of connection, use the "In Canada" instal- lation instructions above.
