1.An outside air inlet must be provided for combustion and must remain clear of leaves, debris, ice and/or snow. It must be unrestricted while unit is in use to prevent room air starvation which can cause smoke spillage and an inability to maintain a fire. Smoke spillage can also set off smoke alarms.

3.Unit must be grounded with #8 solid copper grounding wire or equivalent and terminated at each end with N.E.C. approved grounding device.

4.The factory-built fireplace must meet (UM)84-HUD requirements for outside combustion air supply to the fireplace fire chamber and the chimney must be listed to UL03 HT or a listed UL-1777 full length six inch (152mm) diameter liner must be used. It must be equipped with a spark arrestor cap and the outside air must be installed on the insert. (See Figure 9A and installation instructions of page 13.)
