Smoke and CO Detectors
The use of smoke and carbon monoxide (CO) detectors
throughout the home is strongly advised, even if not re-
quired by building codes or insurance regulations. It is
a good idea to install a smoke detector in the living ar-
eas and each bedroom. Follow the smoke/CO detector
manufacture's placement and installation instructions and
maintain regularly.
You may not, however, wish to install a detector in the
immediate vicinity of the Montpelier insert. Depending on
the sensitivity of the unit, the alarm can be set off while
you are tending the fire or emptying the ashes. If you in-
stall a detector in the same room, locate it as far away
from the insert as possible.
Conveniently locate a "Class A" fire extinguisher to con-
tend with small fires. Be sure the fire extinguisher works
and is clearly visible. All occupants of the house should
know where it is, and how it operates. Have heavy stove
gloves available near the insert. Have special safety
accessories (e.g., Child Guard Screen) available for use
if small children will be in the home.
In the event of a stove pipe or chimney fire....
• Evacuate the house immediately
• Notify the fire department
• If the fire isn't too threatening, closing down the insert
tight, (damper, primary air, all doors) will help to smoth-

er the fire.
• Inspect your insert, stove pipe and chimney for any
damage caused by the fire and correct any damage
before using your insert again.
