Damper Stop Installation:
For Use With All Other Fireplaces
The Damper Stop provided keeps your damper from accidentally closing during operation of your set. This Damper Stop must be installed onto your Damper at all times. NOTE: The damper clamp is designed to hold the damper plate open 3 inches. However, the damper must be fully open when the log set is in operation.
Install the Damper Stop onto the edge of the damper plate. Attach by securing the bolt pro- vided to the damper plate with an adjustable wrench. (Fig. 3)
If the Damper Stop does not fit, drill a 1/4” hole into the damper plate and install an
anchor bolt with nut, at a 90 degree angle, so that the damper plate will remain fully open.
The proper finished installation of the Damper Stop is shown in Figure 4. If the bolt fails to block the damper in an open position, the damper should be removed from the chimney.
To check your vent for proper drafting: Light a tightly rolled newspaper on one end and place it at the inside front edge of the fireplace. Observe the smoke and be sure the vent is properly drawing it up the chimney. If the smoke is drawn
