The metal floor of the ZC solid fuel firebox can be removed to allow the installation of the insert. THE
CLEARANCE TO COMBUSTIBLE MATERIAL UNDER THE INSERT IS 1/2” (13 mm). YOU MUST RAISE THE
INSERT A MINIMUM OF 1/2” (13 mm) IF THE UNIT IS TO BE INSTALLED ON COMBUSTIBLE MATERIAL.
The optional Base Shelf and Riser are recommended to fill the space under the unit once raised. The
sidewalls and top structure of the solid fuel firebox cannot be altered with the exception of: removal of
dampers, removal of smoke shelf or baffle, removal of ember catches, removal of log grate, removal of
viewing screen/curtain, and removal of doors. THE ORIGINAL FIREPLACE MAY NEVER BE RETURNED TO
SOLID FUEL USE IN THIS CONDITION.
IMPORTANT: If the factory-built fireplace has no gas access hole(s) provided, an access hole of 1.5 inch
(37.5 mm) or less may be drilled through the lower sides or bottom of the firebox in a proper workmanship
like manner. This access hole must be plugged with non-combustible insulation after the gas supply line
has been installed. Cutting any sheet-metal parts of the fireplace, in which the gas fireplace insert is to
be installed, except as tested for the floor is prohibited.
The included label plate shown below must be permanently attached inside the cavity of the fireplace
in a visible location.
WARNING: This fireplace has been converted
for the use with a gas fireplace insert only and
cannot be used for burning wood or solid
fuels unless all original parts have been
replaced, and the fireplace re-approved by the
authority having jurisdiction.

Initial Installation
QUALIFIED INSTALLERS ONLY
The fireplace must be electrically connected and grounded in accordance with local codes or, in the
absence of local codes, with the current CSA C22.1 Canadian Electrical Code Part 1, Safety Standards For
Electrical Installations, or The National Electrical Code ANSI / NFPA 70 in the US.
WARNING:
The electrical grounding instructions must be followed. The fan kit is equipped with a three-
prong (grounding) plug for your protection against shock hazard, and should be plugged directly into a
properly grounded three-prong outlet. DO NOT cut or remove the grounding prong from this plug.
CAUTION: When servicing controls, label all wires prior to disconnection. Wiring errors can cause
improper and dangerous operation. Verify proper operation after servicing.
If any of the original wire as supplied with the appliance must be replaced, it must be replaced with 18
AWG wire with a temperature rating of 105°C
