(INSTALLATIONS INTO FACTORY-BUILT FIREPLACES ARE PROHIBITED IN CANADA)

Whether installed in a masonry or heat-circulating fireplace, this fireplace insert must be installed with a continuous chim-

ney liner of 6” (152mm) diameter extending from the fireplace insert to the top of the chimney. The chimney liner must

conform to the Class 3 requirements of CAN/ULC-S635, Standard for Lining Systems for Existing Masonry or Factory-Built

Chimneys and Vents, or CAN/ULC-S640, Standard for Lining Systems for New Masonry Chimneys.
• Do not remove bricks or mortar from fireplace to accommodate insert.
• The face of the fireplace must be sealed to prevent room air passage into the chimney cavity.
• The permanent metal warning label provided must be affixed to the back of the fireplace with screws or nails to

the fireplace, in a location readily visible should the fireplace insert by removed, stating that the fireplace may

have been altered to accommodate the insert, and must be returned to original condition for use as a conven-

tional fireplace.

USE OF LEVELING BOLTS

Two leveling bolts, 3/8” x 4” are shipped inside the component pack found inside the firebox.

NOTE: Not all installations will require the use of the leveling bolts. If the leveling bolts are necessary, you will also need

sheetmetal guides placed under the leveling bolts to slide insert into position.

1. Remove the bolts from the component pack.

. Locate the cage nuts welded to each side of the insert bottom and insert bolts.

3. Position insert on hearth with rear of insert extending into fireplace opening.

4. Extend leveling bolts downward to level insert.

SECURING LINER TO CHIMNEY RING

There are two options to secure the liner to the chimney

ring:

(See Figure 11A).

Option One: If there is enough room on the top of the

insert to work, hand bend the two tabs upward 90°.

Secure the liner with the supplied hex head bolts 1/4-

20-3/4.

Option Two: Remove the manifold tubes, fiberboard baffle

and ceramic blanket. From inside the firebox, pull liner

down through the chimney ring below the outer skin.

There are two pre-drilled holes in the chimney ring 180°

apart. Secure the liner with the supplied hex head bolts

1/4-20-3/4.

NOTE: Tabs are shipped from factory in a flat position.
