This fireplace system has been tested and listed in accordance with UL127 and ULC-S610-M87 standards, and has been listed by OMNI Test Laboratories, Inc., for installation and operation in the United States and Canada as described in this manual. The North Star Fireplace is approved for mobile home installations when not installed in a sleeping room and when an outside combustion air inlet is provided. The structural integrity of the mobile home floor, ceiling, and walls must be maintained. The fireplace must be properly grounded to the frame of the mobile home. Outside Air must be installed in a mobile home installation.

This fireplace has been tested and listed for use with the SL-300 Series chimney and fireplace components listed on page 7.

Check with your local building code agency before you begin your installation to ensure compliance with local codes, including the need for permits and follow-up inspections. Be sure local building codes do not supersede UL specifications and always obtain a building permit so that insurance protection benefits cannot be unexpectedly cancelled.
