8 Clearances to Combustible Material
The clearances shown in this section have been determined by test according to procedures set
out in safety standards ULC S628 (Canada), UL1482 (U.S.A.) and UL737 (U.S.A.). When the
insert is installed so that its surfaces are at or beyond the minimum clearances specified,
combustible surfaces will not overheat under normal and even abnormal operating conditions.
No part of the insert may be located closer to combustibles than the minimum clearance
figures given.
8.1 Location of the Certification Label
Since the information given on the certification label attached to the appliance always overrides the
information published in any other media (owner's manual, catalogues, flyers, magazines and/or
web sites), it is important to refer to it in order to have a safe and compliant installation. In addition,
you will find information about your insert (model, serial number, etc.). You can find the certification
label on the side, towards the front of the outside of the air jacket of the insert.
To access the certification label, the faceplate may need to be removed. Therefore, we
recommend that you note the insert's serial number on this manual, since it will be needed to
precisely identify the version of the appliance in the event you require replacement parts or
technical assistance.
8.2 The Masonry Fireplace's Draft Control System (Throat Damper)
If the fireplace's draft control system is to remain in the masonry fireplace, it must be locked open for
access of the chimney liner or removed entirely. If you remove draft control system from the masonry
hearth, you will need to install the metal plate (27009), supplied with the owner's manual kit,
indicating that the masonry hearth has been modified. It must be secured inside the masonry hearth,
in a visible place and easy to locate.
