1.
Clean the fireplace opening properly
disposing of any ashes in a closed metal
container. See Safety Instructions.
2.
Install a 6˝ (152mm) minimum diameter,
continuous stainless steel chimney liner
into the existing chimney. The liner
must extend to the top of the existing
chimney. Use only listed chimney
liners that meet UL1777 standards.
Follow liner manufacturer installation
instructions.
3.
Remove or lock the fireplace damper
in the open position. Note: Masonry
or damper plate may be removed
to accommodate the chimney liner
provided this does not weaken any
structural components of the existing
fireplace or chimney nor reduces
protection of combustible materials
required by national building codes.
Consult with your local building or fire
authority before doing this.
4. Uncrate the appliance, remove all
packing materials, and any items
stored in the firebox.
5.
WARNING: Any fireplace which has
had parts removed or modified to
accommodate the installation of
this appliance MUST have a warning
plate permanently installed in a visible
location stating that the fireplace is
unfit for use with solid fuel. Permanently
attach the warning plate to a visible
location in the fireplace.
6. Position the appliance into the fireplace opening until the top lip of the air jacket is flush with the fireplace
facing.
7. Level the appliance with the adjusting screws at the rear of the appliance.
8. Connect the chimney liner to the appliance using a stainless steel adapter and securing with a minimum
of three (3) sheet metal screws. The liner MUST be attached with the male (or crimped) end of the adapter
inside the flue collar of the appliance to allow condensation and/or creosote to drain back into the firebox.
9.
Assemble the Surround. Lay pieces face down on carpet or other soft surface to protect finish during
assembly. The Surround consists of two side panels, a top panel, and a decorative trim frame.
10.
