FUSION fireplace using a “top-down” approach, which results in a cleaner, more efficient, and longer burn: 4.4.1 FUSION 18 a) Place two logs in the firebox. The logs should sit directly on the hearth. Do not use a fireplace grate.
The maximum firewood load must not exceed 4 medium sized logs (approximately 25 pounds) for the FUSION 18 and 5 medium sized logs (approximately 30 pounds) for the FUSION 24. This fireplace has been designed to burn with the door closed. When the fireplace is being used, the door should remain closed at all times.
e) Keep the door of the FUSION slightly unlatched until you see a flame in the firebox. Never leave the door unlatched without constant supervision. f) Completely latch the door. Assure that a flame is maintained. Avoid wood smoldering on top of embers as this will result in a dirty glass, excessive emissions, chimney creosote buildup and poor heat output.
