Installation (for qualified installers only)

Fireplace Requirements


Insert must be placed within a code-conforming masonry fireplace or tested and listed factory-built
(metal) wood-burning fireplace. Repair any fireplace damage prior to installation.

Because the insert uses a circulation blower, clean the fireplace, smoke shelf, and chimney prior to
installation.

This heater may be placed in a bedroom. Please be aware of the large amount of heat this appliance
produces when determining a location.

Do not place insulation or any other material on top of the insert. This may block the upper accent
light ventilation, leading to premature bulb failure.

h Attach the "This fireplace has been altered..." plate to the fireplace (use two screws or other
suitable method). You may wish to place it in a location where it will be covered by the surround panels.
