Determine the flue restrictor needed for this application and install into the exhaust pipe on the stove adapter.
●Propane uses the 2” ID restrictor for 10’ to 16’ and the 1.75” ID for the 16’ to 36’ chimneys.
●Natural gas uses no restrictor from 10’ to 16’ and the 1.75” restrictor from 16’ to 36’.
Lay cardboard or an old cloth onto the fireplace hearth to keep from damaging it. If the pipe adapter has been removed from the stove body connect the flex pipes to the intake/exhaust adapter assembly, be sure to use the correct pipe on the exhaust connector, the one that was marked with paint earlier. Tie a string to the exhaust adapter so you can pull the adapter onto stove body.
The flue restrictor can be installed after flex pipes are connected and stove is in fireplace opening. To change or install restrictor remove glass door then remove log . Next remove screw, washer and spacer in the rear brick panel and remove the brick panel while holding relief door open with one hand. Remove the 2 screws holding the exhaust cover onto the rear of the firebox.
To remove a restrictor push the front of the plate upward and pull down on the rear side bringing it into the firebox.
To install a restrictor, hold plate vertically and slide up into exhaust connector through the back of the firebox. Push bottom of plate back allowing it to set onto lip inside the exhaust adapter.
8Look through to connect “J” bolt.
Check stove to opening side clearance. If there is not enough room to reach beside stove while it is installed you may want to remove the gas line from the valve assembly and connect it to your supply line inside the fireplace first, then reconnect to the gas valve.
Set stove into fireplace opening. Connect the pipe adapter or flex liners to the stove. To reconnect the pipe adapter use the string or reach through the exhaust passage and pull the adapter onto the stove body. While looking through the center exhaust port located toward the front of the firebox, connect the “J“ bolt to the adapter. Next slide the clamping adapter into the notch in the firebox top and tighten the nut. Remove the string when completed.
