INSTALLATION

Clean out ashes from the inside of the wood-burning fire- place. Make sure that the chimney and wood-burning fire- place are in a clean and sound condition and constructed of non-combustible materials. If necessary have any repair work done by a qualified person before installing the in- sert. Remove the existing fireplace damper or lock into an open position.

Using screws, attach the fireplace warning tag (W385-0199) to the inside of the firebox of the fireplace into which the insert is being installed.

WARNING: THIS FIREPLACE HAS BEEN CONVERTED FOR USE WITH A GAS FIREPLACE INSERT ONLY AND CANNOT BE USED FOR BURNING WOOD OR SOLID FUELS UNLESS ALL ORIGINAL PARTS HAVE BEEN REPLACED AND THE FIREPLACE IS RE-APPROVED BY THE AUTHORITY HAVING JURISDICTION.

ATTENTION: CE FOYER A ETE CONVERTI AFIN D'ETRE UTILISE SEULEMENT COMME FOYER ENCASTRE AU GAZ ET NE PEUT ETRE UTILSE POUR BRULER DU BOIS OU TOUT AUTRE COMBUSTIBLE SOLIDE, SANS QUE TOUTES LES PIECES ORIGINALES AIENT ETE REMPLACEES ET QUE LE FOYER SOIT APPROUVE DE NOUVEAU PAR LES AUTORITES AYANT JURIDICTION.

Line the chimney with a 3" or 4" diameter approved liner. With a 4" liner, an increaser must be connected between the dilution draft hood and the liner. Chimney installation must conform to both national and local code requirements. The liner must be continuous from the fireplace to the chimney cap.

The sheet-metal parts of the fireplace, in which the gas fireplace insert is to be installed, must not be cut.

If the wood-burning factory-built fireplace has no gas access hole(s) provided, an access hole of 1½ inch or less may be drilled through the lower sides or bottom of the fireplace in a proper workman like manner. This access hole must be plugged with non-combustible in- sulation after the gas supply line has been installed.

Ensure that existing chimney cleanouts fit properly. The refractory, glass doors, screen rails, screen mesh and log grates may be removed from the fireplace be- fore installing the gas fireplace insert.

Smoke shelves, shields and baffles may be removed if attached by mechanical fasteners.

The ventilation openings in the fireplace may be ob- structed by the backer plates, aluminium trim etc. but these parts are not to be applied so as to have an air- tight seal.

Remove the securing screw from the front of the dilution plate. Push the dilution draft hood out of the securing clips and attach the liner using 3 screws equally spaced. Pack insulation around the liner at the damper area to prevent air flow from entering the chimney. Move the insert into the centre of the woodburning fireplace making sure that the dilution draft hood inserts back into its securing clips. Level using the four leveling screws located front and back on either side of the fireplace base. Leveling the insert will eliminate rocking or excessive noise when the fan is in operation. Replace the securing screw to the front of the dilution plate.

Install rigid black pipe, a flex connector, if local codes per- mit, or 1/2" type L, copper tubing with a 3/8" to 1/2" adapter and a shut off valve to the fireplace. Seal and tighten se- curely. The adapter will be required between the gas valve and the copper tubing or flex connector. Do not kink flex- ible connector! Check for gas leaks by brushing on a soap and water solution. Do not use open flame!
