• Carefully clean the fireplace and flue before installing the stove. Failure to do so may result in fumes
or dirt being blown into the room and may cause a fire leading to death or serious injury.
1. Remove the unit from the box and remove all packaging material from the appliance.
2. Remove door. See

3. Remove log and ember set and all wrapping material from the stove. Remove wrapping material from
log and embers and check for any damage. If damage is observed, do not use unit and contact your
local dealer.
4. Check that the chimney clean outs fit properly. The flue damper must be fully blocked open or removed
for installation of the E20; the smoke shelves, shields and baffles may be removed if attached by
mechanical fasteners. IMPORTANT: Cutting any sheet-metal parts of a fireplace, in which the gas
fireplace insert is to be installed is prohibited.
5. If the fireplace opening is lower than 20” (483mm), remove the vent collar plate from the top of the
insert by unscrewing the two (2) T-20 Torx screws located on the center top of the stove above the
door opening (see Figure 26). Slide the collar plate backwards. Properly secure the vent collar plate
to the flexible vent pipe liner(s) previously installed in the chimney. Be careful not to over-stretch the
liner(s).
6. Place the unit part way into the fireplace. Connect the household gas line into the ⅜” NPT receptacle
at the lower left rear of the unit using locally approved methods (see

. Place the electric cable so it can be connected to the power supply.
7. As you push the unit into its final position in the fireplace, if the vent collar plate was removed, reinstall
it to the stove by sliding it along the draft hood and secure with the screws previously removed.
8. Using a T20 driver, adjust the levelling legs to ensure the unit is level and high enough if a base shelf
and/or riser is to be installed. There are two (2) levelling legs on each side (shown in Figure 27).
