Safety Instructions
5.
Use only solid fuel or Natural Gas or LP Gas log sets in this unit. Do not use artificial wax based
logs, chemical chimney cleaners, or flame colorants in this fireplace.
6.
For propane (LP) use do not place propane supply tank(s) inside any structure. Locate propane
supply tank(s) outdoors. To prevent performance problems, do not use propane fuel tank of less
than 100 lbs. capacity.
7.
Never use gasoline, kerosene, gasoline-type lantern fuel, charcoal lighter fluid, or similar liquids
to start or “freshen up” a fire in this fireplace. Keep all flammable liquids at a safe distance from
the fireplace.
8.
Always keep the flue damper open when heat is present in the fireplace.
9.
Do not use a fireplace insert or any other product not specified for use with the MAGNUM Se-
ries fireplace and DM chimney systems unless written authorization is given by Earthcore Indus-
tries, LLC. Failure to heed this warning may cause a fire hazard and will void the warranty.
10.
This fireplace is not intended to heat an entire home or to be used as a primary heat source. It
is designed to ensure homeowner comfort by providing supplemental heat to the room.
11.
Always ensure that an adequate supply of replacement combustion air from the outside of the
house is accessible to the fire to support normal combustion. Fireplaces consume large volumes
of air during the normal firing process.
In the event the home is tightly sealed and has modern energy efficient features, the com-
bustion air supply kits may not provide all the air required to support combustion and the proper
flow of combustion gases up the chimney.
The manufacturer is not responsible for any smoking or related problems that may result
from the lack of adequate air supply flowing into the house. It is the responsibility of the builder/
contractor to ensure that adequate air supply has been provided for the fireplace.
CAUTION:
When used with the MAGNUM Series fireplace system, all gas log sets must be op-
erated with the damper clamped in the fully open position. This includes unlisted “vent free” log
sets. Only listed “vent free” log sets may be operated with the damper in the closed position.
12.
When in doubt about a component’s usability - has visible or suspected physical damage - con-
sult your Isokern distributor or authorized Isokern representative for advice.
13.
Modification to MAGNUM components not mentioned in this manual may void claims, listings
and approvals and could result in an unsafe and potentially dangerous installation.
Alterations to the MAGNUM firebox are allowed with prior written approval and instructions
from Earthcore Industries, LLC. The installer indemnifies the manufacturer of all claims and under
no circumstances will the manufacturer be liable for consequential, incidental, indirect, punitive or
other damages of any kind or nature, whether foreseeable or not, based on any claim by any party
as to the modifications of the Isokern fireplaces.
