Section 1.0 Pre-Installation Requirements 1.1 Masonry & Zero Clearance Requirements The masonry fireplace must meet the minimum code requirements, or NFPA 211 or the equivalent for a safe installation. Contact your local Building Inspector for requirements in your area. An inspection of the fireplace should include the following: CONDITION OF THE FIREPLACE AND CHIMNEY: Examine the masonry fireplace and chimney prior to installation to determine that they are free from cracks, loose mortar, creosote...
1.2 Venting Requirements The flue is a critical component to a satisfactory installation. Your insert will attain its best performance if installed with a flue that generates its own draft. The minimum venting requirement will be the installation of a flue connector from the insert into the first tile of the chimney (see Figure 2.3). If you are using a masonry chimney, it is important that it be built in compliance with the specifications of the National Building Code or other applicable standard having jurisdiction.
Total R = Rbrick + Rmineral = 0.8 + 0.431 = 1.231 Total R is greater than 1.0, the system is acceptable. Figure 2.1.1 Figure 2.1.2 2.2 Suitable Fireplace Dimensions Solution 1.8-I Solution 2.3-I Measurement for : Minimum Measurement for :...
Floor protection to the front is to be measured from the fuel loading door opening. 5. Enerzone recommends that you install a listed smoke detector or alarm in your home. Normal operation of the insert will have no effect on the detector or alarm.
2.4 Installation Instructions 1. Inspect the fireplace according to the safety information and fireplace requirements and have it cleaned and/or upgraded as necessary. 2. If the installation of the unit renders the existing damper control inaccessible, it will be necessary to either secure the damper wide open or remove it entirely.
4. If lag-bolts and anchors are to be used to secure the insert, the hole locations should be marked with the unit in place. Remove the insert and locate the anchors. 5. Remove the faceplate panels from their box and assemble according to the following instructions.
2.6 Adapter for fresh air kit installation instructions Open the rectangular outlet on the side of the unit by gently removing the material held in place by micro joints. Use pliers. Note : The fresh air intake may be installed on the right or left end side of the unit.
Do not abuse the unit, either by over firing or by using wood or combustibles with salt content, or harmful chemicals. Misuse is not covered by warranty. Even though your Enerzone insert has been specifically designed and tested to prevent smoke spillage, always open the door slowly as this will minimize the likelihood of smoke spillage or a back draft causing flame or smoke to spill into the room.
3.2 Fuel Fuel for the insert must not be stored closer than the required clearances to combustibles and not in the space required for ash removal. Your Enerzone insert is designed to burn . Do not burn coal, charcoal, or ORDWOOD trash in the unit.
Decayed wood or low density wood has very little energy content or heating value, and will not burn satisfactorily for long periods of time. An example of the energy values of some common wood fuels is given in Table 3.1 For recommended wood sizes, refer to the specifications.

Set the draft control at high,(see Table3.2) Light a fire at the bottom of the crumpled paper and close the door. If the fire tends to go out, momentarily hold the door slightly ajar to fan the fire. As soon as the fire catches hold, close the door.
3.5 Maintaining The Fire Your Enerzone insert will work best if a thick bed of hot embers is maintained in the bottom of the firebox, and a minimum of two large pieces of seasoned fuel are added. Combustion efficiency is largely related to establishing a hot ember bed, and hot firebox temperatures.
3.6 Fan Operation 1. The fan in your wood insert is heat-activated. The insert needs to be hot before the fan starts working. This may take up to one hour, depending on how hot the fire is. NSURE ONTACT URFACE NSERT REVENT LECTRICAL...
Section 4.0 Maintenance 4.1 Care And Cleaning Clean the insert frequently so that soot, ash and creosote do not accumulate. Do not attempt to clean the insert, glass or door when the unit is hot. Special care must be taken with plated surfaces in order to maintain the finish at its original brilliance.
Enerzone dealer. Your Enerzone insert has been designed to reduce the amount of creosote produced. Even so, the chimney connector pipe and chimney should be inspected at least once every two months during the heating season to determine if a creosote build-up has occurred.

All firebrick and duraboard baffles must be properly in place for correct burning operation. Have any damaged firebricks replaced. Check the firebricks annually for damage and replace if they are broken or damaged. See Figure 4.3 and 4.4 for the firebrick layout. Install the side & back firebricks first, and then the bottom firebricks.
4.5 Secondary Air Tube Replacement (see Figure 4.5) Remove cotter pin at RH end of tube. Slide tube to left and lower tube end below RH plenum. Slide tube to right to remove. Reassemble in reverse order using a new cotter pin. The cotter pin is a hammerlock style and locks into place by hitting the head sharply with a hammer.
4.6 Fan Maintenance & Care Clean the fan air inlet louvres and squirrel cage impeller regularly. The fan should be kept clean and dust free. Life of the fan will be shortened if operated in a dust filled environment, or if the fan is overheated by restricting air supply.
