Design, Installation & Location Consider
ations

•

•
Convenience
•
Traffi c fl ow
•
Chimney and chimney connector required
It is a good idea to plan your installation on paper, using exact
measurements for clearances and fl oor protection, before
actually beginning the installation. If you are not using an
existing chimney, place the appliance where there will be a
clear passage for a factory-built listed chimney through the
ceiling and roof.
We recommend that a qualifi ed building inspector and your
insurance company representative review your plans before
and after installation
If this appliance is in an area where children may be near it
is recommended that you purchase a decorative barrier to go
in front of the appliance. Remember to always keep children
away while it is operating and do not let anyone operate
this appliance unless they are familiar with these operating
instructions.
B. Fire Safety
To provide reasonable fi re safety, the following should be
given serious consideration:
1. Install at least one smoke detector on each fl oor of
your home to ensure your safety. They should be
located away from the heating appliance and close
to the sleeping areas. Follow the smoke detector
manufacturer’s placement and installation instructions,
and be sure to maintain regularly.
2. A conveniently located Class A fi re extinguisher to
contend with small fi res resulting from burning embers.
3.
A CO detector should be installed in the room with the
appliance.
3.
A practiced evacuation plan, consisting of at least two
escape routes.
