Installing Your Wood Fireplace Insert
Unpacking
Hearthstone packages your Clydesdale Fireplace
Insert with the greatest care so that it ships safely.
Under certain circumstances, however, damage can
still occur during transit and handling. When you
receive your Fireplace Insert, unpack it carefully,
inspecting it, and all parts for damage. Also, ensure
that all parts are included. If any parts are damaged
or missing, please contact your dealer immediately.
Pre-Installation Prep
When installing this unit in a fireplace, you must
attach the provided metal label (3300-625) to the
fireplace prior to installing the insert (see illustration
on
page 17
).
Ensure that the Fireplace Insert will have enough
clearance to combustible materials in the vicinity.
These combustibles can include walls, floor, ceiling,
fireplace mantle, and chimney decor. You must
carefully consider the clearances to all of these
combustibles before actually connecting your
Fireplace Insert.
Read this chapter to obtain a sound understanding
of how to properly install your Fireplace Insert.
