Installer—READ THIS FIRST
1. YOU NEED TO KNOW FROM THE
HOMEOWNER what accessories (surround,
screen, fan/blower, etc.) will be installed with
this fi replace;
2. Unpack the appliance.
3. Check that you have everything.
4. Clean cavity, chimney, ash dump, and clean-out.
5. Install venting pipes.
6. Attach conversion plate to existing fi replace.
7. Remove window.
8. Install electrical wiring for fan if used.
9. Install and test fan if used.
10. Fit appliance into cavity.
11. Connect and test gas supply.
12. Install panels and fuel bed.
A few points must be considered before inserting the
700 into an existing fi replace cavity. Generally, no
modifi cations are allowed to the existing fi replace that
will compromise the integrity of the existing fi replace.
Components that are bolted or screwed on such as
dampers or baffl es may be removed to accommodate
the installation of the 700 engine. Cutting away
any sheet metal parts of the existing fi replace
to accommodate the installation of the 700 is
prohibited. Check with local authorities if in doubt.
Clean Fireplace and Chimney
Have the chimney swept and the fi replace cavity
including ash dumps and clean-outs cleaned before
installing the 700 heater and vent liners. Any creosote
or soot residue remaining in the fi replace cavity
chimney or clean-out may cause odors or stains once
the 700 insert is installed. Consult with chimney sweep
for information on how best to clean.
Installation Planning
Existing Fireplace Preparation
13. Refi t window.
14. Reinstall the hot glass warning plate if it has been
removed.
15. Put batteries in remote control handset and battery
box. Connect battery box.
16. Set-up remote control.
17. Verify operation and adjust aeration settings.
18. Install the remote control handset wall holder.
19. Instruct the homeowner on the operation and
maintenance of the fi replace.
20. Install the trims and screen.
*If installing a fan, you will need to use the remote
control to test the fan operation. In this case, put
batteries in the handset and the battery box and set up
the remote control.
Existing Dampers
Factory-built, zero-clearance fi replaces will require the
damper to be removed in order to install the vent liners.
These dampers are usually bolted into place. Dampers
in masonry fi replaces must be fi xed open and may
remain in place.
Ash Retaining Curbs
Some fi replaces (particularly factory-built) have a
raised curb at the front edge to retain ashes. Check the
dimensions carefully to ensure the 700 engine will fi t
behind any raised curb (some curbs may be removed
separately from the refractory base).
