RSF Woodburning Fireplaces 

GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS 

The TOPAZ fireplace is environmentally friendly as well as efficient. It is approved by the United States 
Environmental Agency (EPA) at an emission rate of 4.0 grams per hour. 

THE COMBUSTION CONTROL SYSTEM 

Since the door is sealed, all combustion air must come through the TOPAZ's primary air control. 

For the first few days, it is best to operate the fireplace with the primary air control fully open (handle pushed to 
the far right). Just control the fire as you would any normal fireplace, using one or two logs at a time for a smaller 
fire, or more logs for more heat. Once you become familiar with operating the fireplace with the control open, you 
can start experimenting with lower settings. 

OPTIONS 

There are many different ways you can choose to dress up your TOPAZ fireplace: first with the selection of the 
basic unit either with the black or pewter extrusions, second with the mandatory options (door and louvers) and 
third with a variety of regular options. 

To help you harmonize your fireplace into your decor, we offer a selection of door styles and colors: Cathedral 
(FO-TZDC) (in black only), black (FO-TZDB), gold (FO-TZDG) and pewter (FO-TZDP). We also offer a selection 
of colors for the louvers: black (FO-TZLB), gold (FO-TZLG) and pewter (FO-TZLP). 

Since it is possible to raise the unit above the floor, you may decide to install your TOPAZ fireplace without 
building an elevated (at the level of the base of the unit) hearth extension. We then recommend that you consider 
adding a decorative hearth extension (FO-FDDHE) that will serve as a small hearth extension and also close the 
bottom of the unit. It will provide the finishing touch to a raised installation. Using the decorative hearth extension 
does not eliminate the need for a regular hearth extension on the floor in front of the fireplace. 

For increased air circulation and marginally more heat output, you can add the Circulating Internal Blower (FO-
FDHB8) to your TOPAZ. 

If you have any rooms directly above or adjacent to the room with the fireplace that you would like to heat, you 
may want to consider the Gravity Vent Kit (FO-V2). The gravity vent distributes hot air to these rooms and 
requires no blower to assist its operation. 

For a simple way to circulate a moderate amount of warm air from the fireplace to another room, we offer the Heat 
Dump Kit (FO-HD) which uses a smaller fan than the Central Heat Blower. It is most often used to provide 
supplemental heating to a basement room when the fireplace is on the main floor but it can also be used to send 
the warm air upstairs. 

To remove accumulated ashes from the firebox, simply shovel them in to a metal container but you may find the 
optional Ash Pan Kit (FO-CAP) very convenient. You remove the plug from the firebox and sweep the ashes into 
a hole to the ash pan. When the ash pan is full, simply remove the ash pan by the bottom louver and dispose of 
the ashes properly.  

This fireplace has been specially designed to combine high efficiency with the elegance of a wood burning fire. 
Most often you will take advantage of the high efficiency and the control possible with your new TOPAZ wood 
burning fireplace. If you would like to enjoy the sight and sound of an open fireplace, or simply have less heat 
output in a warmer weather you may want to install the optional TOPAZ firescreen (FO-FDFST).

 NOTE

: Many options require wiring and/or electricity for their installation. If there is any chance that any of these 

options will be installed in the future then suitable wiring should be run during framing. Otherwise, it will be difficult 
to install these options later. You can refer to page 23 for a list of options that require electricity. 

Detailed installation instructions are included in the box with each option. These can also be obtained from our 
Internet Web Site: www.icc-rsf.com.

WARNING: THIS FIREPLACE HAS NOT BEEN TESTED WITH AN UNVENTED GAS LOG SET. TO 

REDUCE RISK OF FIRE OR INJURY, DO NOT INSTALL AN UNVENTED GAS LOG SET INTO THIS 
FIREPLACE. DO NOT INSTALL A GAZ LIGHTER BECAUSE THE HEAT PRODUCED BY THE FIREPLACE 
WILL PERMENENTLY DAMAGE THE GAZ LIGHTER
