Note: Although not required, a full-length stainless steel liner
is recommended for optimum safety and performance. See
your Lennox Hearth Products dealer for details.
Note: When installing your stove with a positive flue connec-
tion, be sure to leave the insulation off the surround panels
(flanges) and leave a 1/4" (6mm) airspace between the
surround panels and the facing of your fireplace.
1. READ ENTIRE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS.
2. Check all REQUIRED CLEARANCES as specified in the
previous section (page 7) of this installation instruction
booklet.
3. Wear gloves during installation in case of sharp edges on
the stove and it's parts
4. Determine the depth of the fireplace lintel. The lintel is
the masonry area over the fireplace opening, and is sup-
ported by a noncombustible plate, usually of steel. The
depth may vary from a single brick width (4"/102mm)
to that of several brick. If any portion of the flue collar
opening on top of the insert (as shown in the diagram
below) will project under the lintel area, a deflector plate
must be mechanically attached to the fireplace insert to
divert heat and gases away from the lintel.

Consult your dealer for the correct attachment piece.
Compare lintel depth to the distance from the flue collar
opening to the fireplace to determine if this caution per-
tains to your installation. If there is sufficient clearance,
a flue offset may also be used. Consult your dealer.
