Fireplace Installation

Existing Fireplace

1.Seal all drafts and vents with a non-fibrous insulation material to prevent any chimney debris from falling onto the fireplace. Do

not install into an existing fireplace that is prone to dampness.

2.Cap the top of the chimney flue to prevent rain from entering.

3.Plan your electric power supply.

4.The power cord can run along the front of the hearth to an outlet near the fireplace.

CAUTION: Clearance for air circulation beneath the fireplace insert is provided by two (2) spacers. Do not install the fireplace insert directly on carpet or similar

surfaces which may restrict air circulation. If installing the fireplace in a carpeted area, place a one-piece, solid, flat surface under the fireplace insert. Ensure that all feet rest securely on this surface.
