Extremely long runs and numerous turns in the duct leading from the fireplace to the combustion air assembly should be avoided. These conditions will increase the resistance to the free flow of air through the duct. Refer to Figures 1, 23, and 24 for methods of installing the outside air for combustion assemblies.

OMBUSTION AK-4 C ODEL OMBUSTION 1. Remove the cover plate from the 4-inch outlet opening location on the left outside of the fireplace. DO NOT remove the cover if the outside air will not be connected. 2. Place the insulation ring between the AK-4 starting collar and fireplace wall and place the starting collar (4 inch) into the hole on the left side of the fireplace. -
Page 25: Gas Appliance Installation
PPLIANCE Improper installation or operation of a gas appliance in this fireplace can allow unburned gas to leak ARNING out which will cause a fire or explosion hazard, or the release of poisonous carbon monoxide into the dwelling which can cause serious injury or death to its inhabitants. To reduce these risks to a minimum, the following important notices and instructions should be read and followed carefully. - Page 26 PPLIANCE 7. Pack the insulation removed in step 4 around the pipe to prevent air flowing through the tube either into or out of the firebox. 8. Be sure the gas is turned off at the appliance, then turn the gas on at the cut off valve and test the gas line connections for leaks with soapy water solution or a liquid leak detector.

IREPLACE PERATION : If a decorative gas appliance is used in the fireplace the fireplace damper must be fixed in an open ARNING position. (See additional operation information in section titled “Operation Guidelines”.) DVANTAGES OF A These are the practical, ecological advantages of wood as a fuel. Also to be considered is the aesthetic appeal. - Page 29 IREPLACE PERATION You’ll need a minimum of three logs, preferably four, to make a good fire. Add kindling and new logs as needed to rekindle a dying fire. New logs should be added at the rear grate after raking the coals toward the front. D .

Page 30: Maintenance And Safety
AINTENANCE AND TORAGE Wood can be dried sufficiently for burning within a few weeks if protected form rain in a low humidity area. It is far better to cut wood and allow it to dry for a year. In all cases, the wood should be stacked so that both ends of the sticks are exposed to the air and protected from rain. - Page 31 AINTENANCE AND IREPLACE AINTENANCE At the end of each heating season or when the fireplace will not be in use for an extended time, the ashes should be removed and the hearth area should be swept as clean as is practical. The slow absorption of moisture into the ashes over a long period of time could cause a condition which would be corrosive to the metal fireplace parts.
- Page 32 AINTENANCE AND 18. Do store your fuel supply at a distance equal to or greater than the spacing recommended for combustible materials from the fireplace. 19. Do build fires of moderate intensity in the fireplace for the first three fires to allow materials to adjust and cure before being subjected to the intense heat of a large fire.
