PACKING LIST
UNPACKING AND INSPECTION
UNPACK AND INSPECT FOR DAMAGE
The Champlain is packaged by the manufacturer to withstand shipment without damage. However, damage can occur during transit so take care to inspect for damage when unpacking and installing the unit. If any damage or missing parts are detected,
immediately contact your dealer. Do not install or put into service a damaged or incomplete heater.
The unit should appear to be square and level. The sheet metal parts should be smooth and free of bends or dents. The enameled cast iron should be free of chips or
cracks. If visible or concealed damage is found, contact your dealer.
The decorative ceramic fiber logs supplied with the Champlain are located in the
firebox. Always use great care when handling the decorative ceramic logs, as they are fragile and subject to damage and breakage. To open the firebox, remove the two upper front screws (located in the grill of the front) that hold the cast façade onto the unit. (THESE SCREWS ARE
SHIPPED ON THE UNIT FOR TRANSIT PURPOSES ONLY AND DO NOT NEED TO BE REINSTALLED) Next, open the valve access door, by pulling the ash lip down and allowing the door to swing away. Grasp the handle of the latch, located in the center of the opening, and pull forward, being careful not to drop the front as the latch is unfastened. Be careful not to chip the enamel when unlatching the front. To open the firebox, reach over the firebox, and under the front grill. With a flat screwdriver pry the retaining clips up. There will be two separate clips. Be careful, when you lift the last one, as it will free the glass and frame from the unit.

The Champlain may be placed on a non- combustible surface or wood floor. For placement of the Champlain on carpeting, vinyl tile or other combustible materials, the appliance shall be installed on a metal or wood panel extending the full width and depth of the appliance.
