INSTALLING DAMPER CLAMP ACCESSORY FOR VENTED OPERATION
NOTE: When used as a vented heater, appliance must be installed only in a solid-fuel burning fire-
place with a working flue constructed of noncombustible material. You may use this heater as a
vented product. When used as a vented decorative appliance, use of the thermostat function is pro-
hibited, operate manually only. There are three reasons for operating your heater as a vented model:
1. The fireplace does not meet the clearance requirements for vent-free operation.
2. State or local codes do not permit vent-free operation.
3. You prefer vented operation.
