STS-42 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Figure 24
Proper Operating Positions of Bi-Fold Doors
CAUTION:
When left closed while burning your fireplace,
firescreens and glass doors will be HOT.
Handle with care!
WARNING!
Do not store fuel within the clearances to com-
bustibles, or in the space required for refueling
and ash removal. See maintenance instructions,
Clear Space Near the Fireplace.
3. Glass Doors
Most efficient fireplace operation using glass doors is
with the doors open. When the doors are open, the
screen must be closed. Only Hearth & Home
Technologies glass doors may be used. See Figure 24
for proper glass door operation.
4. Grate
The factory installed integral grate must be used to
hold the logs from falling out of an open fireplace and
to allow air to pass between the burning logs. It is
important to keep the fire off the hearth and to allow
the ashes to collect beneath the fire, thereby forming
a layer of additional heat protection.
5. Firescreen
A firescreen is always provided to control sparks. It
must be closed whenever the fireplace is in use. Glass
doors or firescreens must not be used to hold burning
material inside the fireplace. Only those glass doors
specifically tested and listed for use with the specific
fireplace model should be used. Screens should be
closed when the glass doors are closed.
