SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
FOR SAFE INSTALLATION AND OPERATION OF YOUR "ENVIROGAS" STOVE, PLEASE,
CAREFULLY READ THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION:
GENERAL
•
Installation and repair should be done by a
qualified service person. The appliance should
be inspected before use and at least annually
by a qualified service person. More frequent
cleaning may be required due to excessive lint
from carpeting, bedding material, etc. It is
imperative that control compartments, burners
and circulating air passageways of the
appliance be kept clean.
•
Due to high temperatures the appliance
should be located out of high traffic areas and
away from furniture and draperies.
Children and adults should be alerted to
hazards of high surface temperatures and
should stay away to avoid burns or clothing
ignition.
•
Young children should be carefully
supervised when they are in the same room as
the appliance.
•
Clothing or other flammable material should
not be placed on or near the appliance.
•
All "ENVIROGAS" gas-fired appliances must be
installed in accordance with these instructions.
Carefully read all the instructions in this manual first.
Consult the building authority having jurisdiction to
determine the need for a permit prior to commencing
the installation.
•
NOTE
Failure to follow these instructions could
cause a malfunction of the fireplace, which could
result in death, serious bodily injury, and/or property
damage.
•
Failure to follow these instructions may also void
your fire insurance and/or warranty.
FOR YOUR SAFETY:
•
Installation and service must be performed by a
qualified installer, service agency or the gas
supplier.
•
Installation must conform to local codes or, in
the absence of local codes with the current CAN 1-B
149 installation code in Canada or the current
National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1 in the USA.
•
To prevent injuries do not allow anyone who is
unfamiliar with the operation to use the stove.
•
Always keep the appliance area clear
and free of combustible materials, gasoline
and other flammable vapors and
liquids.
•
These appliances should not be used as a
drying rack for clothing or for hanging Christmas
stockings or decorations.
•
Due to the paint curing on the stove a faint odor
and slight smoking will likely be noticed when the
stove is first used. Open a window until the slight
smoking stops. Always connect this gas stove to a
chimney and vent to the outside of the building
envelope. Never vent to another room or inside a
building. Make sure you use the vent pipe that is
specified. Make sure that the vent is properly sized
and is of adequate height to provide the proper draft.
Inspect the venting system annually for blockage
and any signs of deterioration.
