Appliance must be installed only in a solid fuel burning
fireplace with a working flue and constructed of non-
combustible material. See chart below for minimum per-
manent flue opening you must provide. The damper must

damper or welding the damper open.

drafting may result causing pilot outage or sooting. Use
a heat-resistant sealant. Do not seal chimney flue
