Installation

Requirements

The GI425 DV Camden Gas Insert can be installed in most solid fuel burning fireplaces of either masonry construction or a prefabricated factory built fire- place.

Prior to any installation of the GI425 DV Camden the existing chimney exhaust flue must be thor- oughly cleaned and completely inspected by a qualified chimney sweep or fireplace service person.

Do not install this insert into a chimney that is damaged. Any repairs must be made prior to install- ing the insert. If you are unsure of the condition of your fireplace and chimney, contact a professional fireplace technician or your local authorized Jøtul dealer for professional assistance.

DO NOT REMOVE BRICKS OR MORTAR FROM THE FIREPLACE OR CHIMNEY STRUCTURE. However, masonry or steel may be removed from the smoke shelf and adjacent damper frame area to accommo- date installation of a chimney liner, provided that their removal will not weaken the structure of the fireplace or chimney, and will not reduce protection for combustible materials.

If the fireplace has been modified to accommo- date installation, use anchors or masonry nails to attach the metal Fireplace Conversion Notice Plate to the back wall of the masonry fireplace firebox where it will be readily seen should the insert be removed.

THIS APPLIANCE MUST NOT BE CONNECTED TO A CHIMNEY OR FLUE SERVING ANY OTHER APPLIANCE OF ANY KIND.

All venting components must be installed in accordance with the terms of their listing and manufacturer’s instructions. Refer to the pipe manufacturer’s instructions for proper pipe clear- ances.

This fireplace insert is specifically designed for use with 3” Type B vent pipe components or a Listed Flexible gas liner.

Do not modify or alter the construction of the gas insert or any of its components to enable it to fit into a fireplace. Any modification of the insert will void the warranty, certifications and approvals of the unit and could be dangerous.
