Fireplace Chimney Preparation
1. Remove the existing damper and linkage
components from the fireplace. Alternatively,
you can wire the damper plate to lock it in the
open position. Thoroughly clean the firebox and
smokeshelf area with a wire brush.
2. If the fireplace has been modified to
accommodate installation, use anchors or
masonry nails to attach the metal Fireplace
Conversion Notice Plate (PN 220508) to the back
wall of the masonry fireplace firebox where it will
be readily seen should the insert be removed.
3. If appropriate, install the damper sealing plate
according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
The sealing plate may require trimming to
accommodate your specific fireplace damper
frame.
