2. Indirect method: for an appliance not certified for direct connection of outside combustion air, the outside air is
ducted to a point no closer than (12 in.) 300 mm from the appliance to avoid an adverse effect on the performance
of the appliance.
3. A mechanical ventilation system: if the house has ventilation system (air exchange or heat recovery):
a. The ventilation system may be able to provide sufficient combustion make-up air for the solid-fuel-fired appli-
ance.
b. The household owner should be informed that the ventilation system might need to be re-balanced by a ventila-
tion technician after installation of the appliance.
NOTE: Because the base sits 1” (25.4 mm) off the floor, the outside air floor duct can be positioned along the front to rear
center line under the pedestal, but as close to the opening in the base as location permits. The outside air floor duct opening
must be protected from any possible obstructions, including loose floor insulation.
2. Installation 2.1 Installing Marble Accents
Marble is a natural product, and, therefore, each piece will have its own unique characteristics. Marble can be scratched, so
care should be taken to avoid putting heavy or rough objects (trivet/steamers) on the surface. If the marble should become
scratched, the scratch may be removed or diminished by polishing it with jeweler’s rouge (which can be purchased at many
hardware stores). Do not install the marble before allowing the paint to cure.
The marble set consists of 2 pieces, a large piece which fits onto the stove top and a smaller piece which fits onto the ash
lip, which is located below the fuel door.
Install the marble gasket and marble as follows:
1. Install gasket on stove top as shown in the illustration. The ceramic fiber blanket and strips (cerawool) which come
with each unit must be placed under the marble to insulate it from high temperatures on top of the firebox. Do not
place the marble directly on the top metal surface of the stove, or it will crack.
2. Place top marble piece onto the gasket on stove top
3. Place ash lip marble into recessed area on the stove ash lip (located below the fuel door).
2.2 Baffle Bricks
The baffle bricks are preinstalled by the manufacturer.
IMPORTANT: The baffle bricks require periodic inspection and replacement for proper operation. If
the baffle bricks are fractured or crumbling, they should be replaced. Do not operate this appliance
without the baffle bricks being properly installed.
