Venting - Harman Stove Company XL Owner's Manual

18 Installation
Preliminary steps to prepare for the installation of
the ShadowLight XL Fireplace Insert
Remove the chimney cap if one exists so that the flue
may be cleaned and the venting installed.
Remove any existing hearth accessories such as glass
doors, spark screens, andirons, and grates.
Clean the chimney thoroughly to remove ash, soot,
and any obstructions, and then clean ash, soot, dust,
and debris from the fireplace.
The damper must be locked open to allow the 3"
venting to pass through. If it is necessary to modify
the damper area to allow passage of the venting, the
modifications should be allowed under local codes.
Confirm any planned changes with local building
officials.
Use Only Approved Venting
Observe local codes when venting the ShadowLight
XL. If no local codes exist, follow ANSI Z21.88-2002
installation code.
Do not connect the venting to the flue of a chimney that
serves a separate solid-fuel burning appliance.
The venting manufacturer's installation instructions
must be followed exactly.
The most efficient venting systems are those that have
a minimum number of bends and minimal horizontal
runs.
WARNING: Operation of this heater when not
connected to a properly installed and maintained
venting system can result in carbon monoxide (CO)
poisoning and possible death.
Exhaust restrictor plates must be installed depending
on type of gas and chimney height. See page 20 to
determine restrictor.
