AIR FOR COMBUSTION
AND VENTILATION
WARNING: This fireplace
shall not be installed in a con-
fined space or unusually tight
construction unless provisions
are provided for adequate com-
bustion and ventilation air. Read
the following instructions to in-
sure proper fresh air for this and
other fuel-burning appliances in
your home.
Today’s homes are built more energy efficient than
ever. New materials, increased insulation, and new
construction methods help reduce heat loss in
homes. Home owners weather strip and caulk
around windows and doors to keep the cold air out
and the warm air in. During heating months, home
owners want their homes as airtight as possible.
While it is good to make your home energy effi-
cient, your home needs to breathe. Fresh air must
enter your home. All fuel-burning appliances need
fresh air for proper combustion and ventilation.
Exhaust fans, fireplaces, clothes dryers, and fuel
burning appliances draw air from the house to
operate. You must provide adequate fresh air for
these appliances. This will insure proper venting
of vented fuel-burning appliances.
