B. Design and Installation Considerations

Heat & Glo gas inserts are designed for installations into solid fuel masonry or factory built fireplaces that have been installed in accordance with the National, Provin- cial, State and local building codes. Fireplaces are to be constructed of non-combustible materials and, in the ab- sence of local or regional codes, meet criteria of NFPA 211. No additional outside air source is required.

Installation MUST comply with local, regional, state and na- tional codes and regulations. Consult insurance carrier, local building inspector, fire officials or authorities having jurisdic- tion over restrictions, installation inspection and permits.

Prior to installing the gas insert:

•Have the chimney and adjacent structure inspected and cleaned by qualified professionals. Hearth & Home Technologies recommends that NFI or CSIA certified professionals, or technicians under the direction of certi- fied professionals, conduct a minimum of a NFPA 211 Level 2 inspection of the chimney.

•Replace component parts of the chimney and fireplace as specified by the professionals.

•Ensure combustible mantel and surround clearances comply with applicable codes and regulations for solid- fuel fireplaces. In the absence of local or regional codes, refer to NFPA 211.

•Ensure all joints are properly engaged and the chimney is properly secured.

•Minimum fireplace size. See Section 5.A.

•Gas supply piping requirements.

•Electrical wiring requirements.

•Finishing details.

•Whether optional accessories—devices such as a wall switch or remote control—are desired.

Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service or maintenance can cause injury or property damage. For assistance or additional information, consult a qualified technician, service agency or your dealer.
