  • Page 3: Important Information

    The fireplace is designed to sit directly on a combustible floor. The fireplace must be installed with clearances to combustible building materials specified in this manual. Only parts manufactured by Monessen Hearth Systems and labeled for use with the fireplace should be used in the installation of this fireplace except for special roof flashings that may be fabricated locally.

  • Page 4: Operation Guidelines

    Because cold air infiltration may be unavoidable in some structures, Monessen Hearth Systems is not responsible for heat loss or air infiltration through or around the fireplace.
