shown in Figures 41 and 42.
Support the chimney at floor or ceiling penetra-
tion with a FTF8 stabilizer if distance of chimney
below ceiling is 10' (3 m) or more. Maintain 2"
(51 mm) minimum air space to combustibles
from chimney sections. The chimney must

Glass doors

The Fireplaces require the use of the standard
glass doors (provided). The use of any other
non-listed door on these fireplaces may result
in a potential fire hazard and is not recom-
mended.
Make a careful inspection of all parts before
installing the doors to ensure they are undam-
aged and complete. There will be two (2) glass
door assemblies for both sides of the CST38MH
fireplace.
Note:
• Design characteristics of a dual-opening
fireplace (whether masonry or factory-built)
may cause it to not draft properly and smoke.
For this reason, glass doors are required with
model CST38MH fireplaces.
• Upper door pivot pins can also be loosened
for adjustment purposes; however, it is easier
to loosen lower pins.
