INSTALLATION CHECK LIST
BEFORE INSTALLATION
Thoroughly read and understand this manual. SAVE THIS MANUAL.
Check with local authorities and obtain needed permits
3. It is strongly recommended that the stove receive a Dealer’s
“Pre-delivery Check”
prior to
installation.
4. We recommend installation by a qualified professional.
BEFORE STARTING THE STOVE FOR THE FIRST TIME
1. Outside combustion air may be recommended for certain installations (negative pressure). Use
only approved parts. Outside air kit # 100354 is available or any comparable components as
listed on page 13.
2. All joints of PL vent and single wall stainless steel pipe should be fastened by at least 3 screws
and correctly installed. (Follow vent manufacturer’s instructions). Seal all joints with high
temperature silicone to create an airtight seal.
3. Any “plated” areas should be cleaned thoroughly with a glass cleaner such as Windex® and a
soft cloth just before lighting the first fire. This will remove fingerprints and oils that may cause
a permanent stain or mark on the gold plating the first time it is heated. Never use an abrasive
cleaner or material on any plated or painted surfaces. Never clean the plated surfaces when stove
is hot.
4. WARNING: The high temperature paint on this stove may take several hours of burning at a
high fuel setting to cure fully. During this time, an odor that is not harmful may be evident.
When odors are present, the area around the stove should be well ventilated.
5. Caution: The high temperature paint can be easily scratched prior to burning the stove.
