INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing a Green Mountain Insert
70 wood fireplace insert from HearthStone Quality
Home Heating Products. This fireplace insert will
provide years of comfortable heat. This fireplace
insert combines the warmth and comfort of
soapstone and cast iron with the efficiency of

Mountain Insert 70
’s large glass window allows you
to enjoy the fire from a variety of locations in the

this product.
Your Green Mountain Insert 70 wood fireplace insert
burns very efficiently and produces a large amount
of heat. However, you should not consider your
Green Mountain Insert 70 the sole heat source for
your home.
Please read this manual in its entirety. Its purpose is
to familiarize you with your fireplace insert's safe
installation,
proper
break-in,
operation
and
maintenance. It contains extremely important
information so keep it handy and refer to it often.
A qualified heating technician may need this owner’s
manual as a reference when installing this fireplace
insert in your home. There are national, state, and
local building codes that direct the technician on how
to install your fireplace insert. These codes stipulate
the dimension of stovepipe and clearances to walls,
ceilings, hearth, and other combustible surfaces.
The codes exist to reduce the risk of fire. Failure to
follow these instructions can result in fire, property
damage, bodily injury, and even death.
It is extremely important to install this fireplace insert
with the proper clearance from combustible
surfaces. You can purchase specific connector pipe
and special wall coverings as specified by this
manual and the NFPA 211 code to protect
combustible surfaces. As a general rule, keep
furniture, drapes, curtains, wood, paper, and other
combustibles at least 36 inches (92 cm) away from
the fireplace insert. Never install the fireplace insert
in or near a storage location for gasoline, kerosene,
charcoal lighter fluid or any other flammable liquids.
Install the fireplace insert in your central living area
to allow heat to radiate naturally to distant rooms. Do
not install your fireplace insert in a poorly insulated
area. This is inefficient and would likely result in
higher fuel usage.
SAFETY NOTICE:
AN IMPROPERLY INSTALLED FIREPLACE INSERT
CAN RESULT IN A HOUSE FIRE. FOR YOUR
SAFETY, CAREFULLY FOLLOW THE
INSTALLATION DIRECTIONS. CONTACT LOCAL
BUILDING OR FIRE OFFICIALS ABOUT
RESTRICTIONS AND INSTALLATION INSPECTION
IN YOUR AREA.
The safety of your fireplace insert will depend on
many factors, some of which include: distance to
combustible objects, correct venting, and adequate
chimney maintenance. Should you have any
questions, do not hesitate to contact your dealer for
additional information.

service.
