Safety Instructions
1. Before starting the MAGNUM fireplace and DM 54
chimney installation, read these installation instructions
carefully to be sure you understand them completely. Failure
to follow them could cause fireplace malfunction resulting in
serious injury or property damage.
2. Always check local building codes governing fireplaces
and fireplace installations. The MAGNUM fireplace and DM
chimney installation must comply with all local, regional,
state and national codes and regulations.
3. MAGNUM fireplace and DM 54 chimney systems are
intended for use in any application where a traditional
masonry type fireplace would apply. The chimney system
must always vent vertically to the outside of the building.
4. Creosote and soot formation and the need for removal:
When wood is burned slowly, it produces tar and other
organic vapors which combine with expelled moisture to
form creosote. The creosote vapors condense in the relatively
cool chimney flue of a slow burning fire. As a result, creosote
residue accumulates on the flue lining. When ignited this
creosote makes an extremely hot fire.
Because of creosote and soot buildup it is necessary
to inspect and clean the fireplace and chimney prior to use
and periodically during the heating season. Cleaning of the
fireplace and the chimney system should be done annually at
a minimum. In colder climates, chimney cleaning may need
to be done periodically throughout the heating season.
5. Before servicing, allow the fireplace to cool. Always shut
off any electricity or gas to the fireplace while working on it.
6. Use only solid fuel or natural or LP gas log sets in this
unit. Do not use artificial wax based logs, chemical chimney
cleaners or flame colorants in this fireplace.
7. Never use gasoline, kerosene, gasoline-type lantern fuel,
charcoal lighter fluid, or similar liquids to start or “freshen
up” a fire in this fireplace. Keep all flammable liquids at a safe
distance from the fireplace.
8. Always keep the flue damper open when heat is present in
the fireplace.
9. Do not use a fireplace insert or any other product not
specified for use with the MAGNUM fireplace and DM 54
chimney systems unless written authorization is given by
Isokern. Failure to heed this warning may cause a fire hazard
and will void the Isokern warranty.
10. This fireplace is not intended to heat an entire home or
to be used as a primary heat source. It is designed to ensure
homeowner comfort by providing supplemental heat to the
room.
11. Always ensure that an adequate supply of replacement
combustion air from the outside of the house is accessible to
the fire to support normal combustion. Fireplaces consume
large volumes of air during the normal firing process.
In the event the home is tightly sealed and has
modern energy efficient features, the optional combustion air
supply kits may not provide all the air required to support
combustion and the proper flow of combustion gases up the
chimney.
The manufacturer is not responsible for any smoking
or related problems that may result from the lack of adequate
air supply flowing into the house. It is the responsibility of
the builder/contractor to ensure that adequate air supply has
been provided for the fireplace.
12. “Smoke free” operation is not warranted nor is the
manufacturer responsible for inadequate system draft caused
by mechanical systems, general construction conditions,
inadequate chimney heights, adverse wind conditions or
any unusual environmental conditions or factors beyond the
manufacturer’s control.
Caution:
When used with the MAGNUM fireplace system,
all gas log sets must be operated with the damper clamped in
the fully open position. This includes unlisted “vent free” log
sets. Only listed “vent free” log sets may be operated with the
damper in the closed position.
13. When in doubt about a component’s usability - has
visible or suspected physical damage - consult your Isokern
distributor or authorized Isokern representative for advice.
