FACTORY BUILT FIREPLACES
(Not Approved In Canada)
In the USA, this appliance is approved for installation into
a listed factory built solid fuel burning fireplace (built to
UL 127 or ULC S610 standards). The fireplace firebox
must accept the insert without modification other than
removing bolted or screwed together pieces such as
smoke shelf/deflectors, ash lips, screen or door tracks
and damper assemblies, that must be reinstalled to re-
store the fireplace to its original operating condition if
the insert is removed and not replaced. The removal of
any part must not alter the integrity or outer shell of the
pre-engineered fireplace cabinet in any way.
Venting Requirements for factory built fireplace:
The fireplace damper must be secured in the open po-
sition. This appliance requires the use of a 6” (152 mm)
diameter flex or rigid, UL1777 listed 2100
°
HT liner or
equivalent. The liner must extend from the flue outlet of
the appliance to termination. Do not face seal over fire-
place chimney cooling air systems. Offsets can be han-
dled with an offset adapter (it aligns starter pipe with
fireplace flue). For more information on the offset
adapter, see pages 9 and 25.
WARNING: DO NOT SUBSTITUTE THE HEAT
RATED 2100
°
HT LINER WITH ANY OTHER TYPE
LINE OR A FIRE MAY RESULT CAUSING PROP-
ERTY DAMAGE, PERSONAL INJURY OR LOSS
OF LIFE.
