-Always review the local, state, and federal laws before installing this appliance. If
applicable in your area, contact your local building officials to obtain a permit and information
on any installation restrictions and inspection requirements in your area. If you have insurance

-This appliance must be properly installed to reduce the chance of house fires. The
installation instructions must be adhered to. Never use makeshift methods or materials to install
this appliance. It is highly recommended that you hire or consult an accredited expert with
experience in wood stoves in this appliances installation.
-This appliance must be connected to an approved or nationally recognized testing
laboratory listed chimney or flue pipe specifically designed for wood burning/heating and high
temperatures, with a flue no less than 6" inches in diameter. This heater requires an approved
masonry or UL or other NRTL listed residential type and building heating appliance chimney.
Use a 6" inch diameter chimney that is high enough to give a good draft.
-Creosote – Formation and Need for Removal. When wood burns slowly, it produces tar
and other organic vapors, which combine with expelled moisture to form creosote. The
creosote vapors condense in the relatively cool chimney flue of a slow-burning fire. As a result,
creosote residue accumulates on the flue lining. When ignited this creosote makes an extremely
hot fire. The chimney connector and chimney should be inspected at least once every two
months during the heating season to determine if a creosote buildup has occurred. If creosote
has accumulated it should be removed to reduce the risk of a chimney fire.
-Never vent to another room or inside a building.
-The special paints used on your heater may give off some smoke and fumes that are not
safe to breathe while they are curing during the first few fires. If possible, open windows to
vent out the fumes for the first three (3) hours of operation, or until the paint is cured.
-Never place clothing or other flammable material on or near this appliance.
-This heater must be connected to an appropriate chimney and vented outside.
