Stone Age Indoor Fireplace 

 

 

 

1.0 Introduction  

The  following  provides  instructions  for  the installa-
tion and operation of the Stone Age Fireplace, manu-
factured  by  Stone Age  Manufacturing,  Collinsville, 
Oklahoma. 

Three generations of fireplace knowledge and expe-
rience have gone into the design and construction of 
the New Age series fireplaces.   New Age Fireplaces 
are certified to UL127 for the US, and ULCS610 for 
Canada.   They are also certified in accordance with 
ICC-ES  AC156  meeting  structural  design  require-
ments  for  Earthquake Testing  at  a  compliance  level 
of  Sds  =  2.5g.    The  ICC-ES AC156  complies  with 
2010 American  Society  of  Civil  Engineers  (ASCE) 
7-10, 2009 International Building Code (IBC), 2010 
California Building Code and 2012 ICC-ES AC156.   
Assembly  and  Cutaway  views  of  a  NA48IND  fire-
place are shown in Figure 1.   

 

 

 

Because  of  structural  modifications  required  in  an 
existing home, it is recommended that this fireplace 
be installed by a professional installer, or by a build-
er  in  new  construction.    Installation  by  a  non-
qualified person may negate the warranty. 

Keep these instructions for future use.  

2.0 Description 

The  fireplace  is  delivered  as  a  kit  with  all  compo-
nents necessary to complete the installation.  The kit 
is configured for a flue chimney, but a special adapt-
er is available for a metal chimney.  Component ar-
rangement,  some  of  which  is  optional,  is  shown  in 
Figure 2.  Components are shown in Table 1.  Speci-
fications  and  installation  dimensions  are  shown  in 
Table 2. 

A  completed  installation  should  include  the  follow-
ing: 

A.  Fireplace items shown in Figure 2 and listed in 
Table 1. 

B.  Damper (sold separately) (Shown in Figure 12). 

C.  Chimney Cap (sold separately) (Shown in Fig-

The Stone Age Fireplace has been tested and listed in 
accordance  with  UL  127  and  ULC  S610  standards 
for  indoor  or  outdoor  use,  and  is  listed  by  OMNI-
Test Laboratories, Inc. for installation and operation 
in the United States and Canada as described in this 
manual. 

This fireplace is designed to supplement your current 
heating  system.    It  is  not  designed  to  be  used  as  a 
primary heat source.  

Ensure that appropriate building permits required by 
local codes are obtained before installation in an ex-
isting home.
