If this fireplace is not properly installed, combustible materials near it may overheat. To reduce the risk
of fire, follow the installation instructions in this manual exactly. Contact local building or fire officials
about restrictions and installation inspection requirements in your area.
Please read this entire manual before you install and use your new fireplace. You may need to get a
building permit for the installation of this fireplace and the chimney that it is connected to. Consult your
municipal building department or fire department before installation. We recommend that you also
inform your home insurance company to find out if the installation will affect your policy.
This heating unit is designed to serve as a supplementary heat source. We recommend that a primary
heat source also be available in the home. The manufacturer cannot be responsible for costs associated
with the use of another heating system.
CAUTION: Do not attempt to modify or alter the construction of the fireplace or its components. Any
modification or alteration of construction may void the warranty, listings and approvals of this system. In
that case, Stove Builder International (SBI) will not be responsible for damages. Install the fireplace only as
