1. IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE
The SCAN DSA wood-burning fireplace insert is a closed fireplace.
Protection against a fire hazard is of primary importance when installing a wood-burning fireplace. If
utilizing an older chimney, it must be inspected for adequate serviceability. Refer to the heading:
Chimney Installation (page 12).
Minimum listed clearances to combustible surfaces and materials must be maintained, including;
furniture, drapery, clothing, wood, papers, etc.
1.1 Prevent Creosote Fires:
Both the chimney and chimney connector should be inspected for creosote deposits at least twice
monthly during the heating season. Remove all buildups as necessary. This fireplace is approved for
burning dry seasoned natural wood only. Using green or inadequately seasoned wood can greatly
increase creosote buildup and result in inefficient combustion.
1.2 Prevent Over-firing:
Do not over-fire! Over-firing the fireplace can cause a house fire. If the fireplace glows, you are over-
firing. Damage caused from over-firing is not covered by the manufacturer's limited warranty.
