WARNING
!
• Risk of fi re! Maintain specifi ed air space clearances to vent pipe and appliance.
Clean out ashes from the inside of the wood-burning appliance. Make sure that the chimney and wood-burning
appliance are in a clean and sound condition and constructed of non-combustible materials. If necessary have any
repair work done by a qualifi ed person before installing the insert. Remove the existing appliance damper or lock
into an open position.
Using screws, attach the appliance warning tag to the inside
of the fi rebox of the appliance into which the insert is being
installed.
The sheet-metal parts of the appliance, in which the gas
appliance insert is to be installed, must not be cut.
If the wood-burning factory-built appliance has no gas access
hole(s) provided, an access hole of 1½ inch (38.1mm) or less
may be drilled through the lower sides or bottom of the appliance in a proper workman like manner. This access
hole must be plugged with non-combustible insulation after the gas supply line has been installed.
Ensure that existing chimney cleanouts fi t properly.
The refractory, glass doors, screen rails, screen mesh and log grates may be removed from the existing appliance
before installing the gas appliance insert.
Smoke shelves, shields and baffl es may be removed if attached by mechanical fasteners.
The ventilation openings in the existing appliance may be obstructed by the backer plates, aluminium trim etc. but
these parts are not to be applied so as to have an airtight seal.
2.1 optional non-combustible installation
Brick facing may be removed and replaced with non-combustible materials such as steel studs and concrete
board. The opening between the fi rebox and non-combustibe materials must be sealed so as the heat cannot run
between the face of the wood fi replace and the re-facing materials.
Insert must be pulled out so the appliance is fl ush with the fi nishing materials and the safety barrier is proud of the
fi nished non-combustible enclosure (wood burning appliance).
Use steel studs.
Use concrete board
on front and around
steel stud enclosure
for insert.
