using a minimum of three (3) screws at each connection.
Chimneys outside of the home or on an exterior wall are
difficult to keep at operating temperatures and may result
in increased creosote buildup, less draft, back drafting
problems and poor appliance performance and should be
avoided.
WARNING:
RISK OF FIRE - DO NOT ALLOW COMBUSTIBLE
MATERIALS (CARPET, FURNITURE, FUELS) TO BE
PLACED ON OR COVER THE FLOOR PROTECTOR. ALL
COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS MUST REMAIN OUTSIDE
OF THE MINIMUM CLEARANCE DIMENSIONS.
1. Clean the fireplace opening properly disposing of
any ashes in a closed metal container. See Safety
Instructions.
2. Install a 6" (153 mm) minimum diameter, continuous
stainless steel chimney liner into the existing chimney.
The liner must extend to the top of the existing
chimney. Use only listed chimney liners that meet UL
1777(US) or ULC S635 (Canada).
3. Remove or lock the fireplace damper in the open
position. Note: Masonry or damper plate may be
removed to accommodate the chimney liner provided
this does not weaken any structural components of the
existing fireplace or chimney nor reduces protection
of combustible materials required by national building
codes. Consult with your local building or fire authority
before doing this.
4. Uncrate the appliance, remove all packing materials,
and any items stored in the firebox.
5. WARNING: Any fireplace which has had parts removed
or modified to accommodate the installation of this
appliance MUST have a warning plate permanently
installed in a visible location stating that the fireplace
is unfit for use with solid fuel. This unit came with a
metal warning label. Permanently attach the warning
plate to a visible location in the fireplace. After choosing
a visible location in the fireplace, permanently attach
the warning plate by screwing or nailing it into place.
Note: Use the holes in the label to mark and predrill the
holes needed for attaching the label.
6. Position the appliance into the fireplace opening until
the top lip of the air jacket is flush with the fireplace
facing.
7. Level the appliance with the adjusting screws at the
rear of the appliance.
8. Connect the chimney liner to the appliance using a

stainless steel adapter and securing with a minimum
of three (3) sheet metal screws. The liner MUST
be attached with the male (or crimped) end of the
adapter inside the flue collar of the appliance to allow
condensation and/or creosote to drain back into the
firebox.
This appliance must be connected to a listed Stainless Steel
Liner, that meets UL1777, which extends from the collar
to the chimney cap according to the specifications listed
on the previous pages. Take into account the chimney's
location to ensure it is not too close to neighbors or in a
valley which may cause unhealthy or nuisance conditions.
CHIMNEY DRAFT
NOTE: A DRAFT READING OF 0.05[12.45] to 0.06[14.94]
(Water Column[Pascals]) IS REQUIRED FOR PROPER
BURNING OF THIS APPLIANCE.
Draft is a function of the chimney, NOT THE APPLIANCE —
Do not expect the appliance to draw. Smoke spillage into
the house or excess buildup of condensation or creosote
in the chimney are warnings that the chimney is NOT
functioning properly. Correct the problem before using
the appliance. Following are some possible causes for
improper draft.
1. The connector pipe may be pushed into the chimney
too far, stopping the draft.
2. If the chimney is operating too cool, water will
condense in the chimney and run back into the
appliance. Creosote formation will be rapid and may
block the chimney. Operate the appliance at a fire level
high enough to keep the chimney warm preventing
this condensation.
3. If the fire burns well but sometimes creates excessive
smoke or burns slowly, it may be caused by the
chimney top being lower than another part of the
house or a nearby tree. The wind blowing over a house
or tree falls on top of the chimney like water over a
dam, beating down the smoke. The top of the chimney
should be at least three (3) feet above the roof and be
at least two (2) feet higher than any point of the roof
within ten (10) feet.
