The base, sidewalls and top structure of the solid fuel firebox cannot be altered with the exception of:
removal of dampers, removal of smoke shelf or baffle, removal of ember catches, removal of log grate,
removal of viewing screen/curtain, and removal of doors. THE ORIGINAL FIREPLACE MAY NEVER BE
RETURNED TO SOLID FUEL USE IN THIS CONDITION.
The height for the vent must be between 10ft (3.05m) and 35ft (10.67m).
Install sealed Vertical Vent Cap to prevent leakage of room air up through
chimney.
The intake is 2" (51mm) and the exhaust is 3" (76mm).
Measure the height of the chimney beforehand and purchase the
appropriate kit. Never attempt to over-stretch a flexible liner to
accommodate the height of the chimney. Any chimney over 15' (4.6m),
install the E20 15’ 2” & 3” Flex Vent (part #50-1512) and the E20 2” & 3”
Flex Couplers (part #50-1513). Every joint in the venting must be secured
with three (3) #8 x 3/8” HWH sheet metal screws and an appropriate
sealant (either silicone or milpac).
The flue damper can 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.
The chimney must be clean, in good working order and constructed of
non-combustible materials.
Make sure that all chimney cleanouts are tight fitting and will not permit
air to leak into the chimney.
Refractory, glass doors, screen rails, screen mesh and log grates can be
removed from the fireplace before installing the E20.

IMPORTANT: If the factory-built fireplace has no gas access hole(s) provided, an access hole of 1.5 inch
(37.5 mm) or less may be drilled through the lower sides or bottom of the firebox in a proper workmanship
like manner. This access hole must be plugged with non-combustible insulation after the gas supply line
has been installed. Cutting any sheet-metal parts of the fireplace, in which the gas fireplace insert is to be
installed is prohibited. The label plate shown below, included with the E20, must be permanently attached
inside the cavity of the fireplace in a visible location.
WARNING: This fireplace has been converted
for the use with a gas fireplace insert only and
cannot be used for burning wood or solid
fuels unless all original parts have been
replaced, and the fireplace re-approved by the
authority having jurisdiction.
