Pre-installation Check List:

Before you begin an installation, review your plans, check to see:
1. Your fireplace and chimney connector will be far enough from combustible material to meet
all clearance requirements.
2. The floor protection is adequate and is constructed properly to meet all requirements.
3. You have all necessary permits from local authorities. Your local building official is the final
authority for approving your installation as safe and determining that it meets local and state
codes.
The metal label permanently attached to the left side of fireplace shroud indicates that the DSA 4 has
been tested to current UL and ULC standards, and gives the name of the testing laboratory. Clearance
and installation information is also printed on the label. Local authorities will generally accept the
label as evidence that, when the fireplace is installed according to the information on the label and in
this manual, the installation meets codes and can be approved.
Codes vary in different areas. Before starting the installation, review your plans with the local building
authority. Your local dealer can provide any additional information needed.

Association's publication ANSI/NFPA 211-1996
