WARNING: Use solid wood or processed solid
fuel fire logs only. Do not poke or stir the logs while
they are burning. Use only firelogs that have been
evaluated for the application in fireplace and refer to
firelog warnings and caution markings on packaging
prior to use.
This fireplace is not intended to be used as a sub-
stitute for a furnace to heat an entire home. Use for
supplemental heat only.
Overfiring of a fireplace is a condition where exces-
sive temperatures are reached, beyond the design
capabilities of the appliance. The damage that occurs
from overfiring is not covered under the manufacturer’s
limited warranty.

SAFETY Continued
WARNING: CONTINUED OVERFIRING CAN PER-
MANENTLY DAMAGE YOUR FIREPLACE SYSTEM.
SOME EXAMPLES OF CONDITIONS THAT COULD
CAUSE OVERFIRING ARE:
• BURNINGQUANTITIESOFSCRAPLUMBER,PINE
BRANCHES, PAPER OR CARDBOARD BOXES
WHICHEXCEEDTHEVOLUMEOFTHENORMAL
LOGFIRE.
• BURNINGTRASH,CHEMICALSORCHEMICALLY
TREATEDCOMBUSTIBLES.
Disposal of Ashes
Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a
tight-fitting lid. The closed container of ashes should
well away from all combustible materials, pending
final disposal. If the ashes are disposed of by burial
in soil or otherwise locally dispersed, they should be
retained in the closed container until all cinders have
thoroughly cooled.
WHEN USING THE DECORATIVE APPLIANCE, THE
FIREPLACE DAMPER MUST BE SET IN THE FULLY
OPEN POSITION.
Never use gasoline, gasoline-type lantern fuel, kero-
or ’freshen up’ a fire in this fireplace. Keep all such
liquids well away from the fireplace while it is in use.
Use SOLID WOOD only for fuel. It is best to use dry
and well seasoned hardwood. Softwoods tend to burn
very quickly. DO NOT use treated wood, charcoal, coal,
trash, driftwood or woods that have been dipped in tar,
pitch, pine tar, creosote, etc. Wood products made
with synthetic binders, such as plywood, produce ab-
normally high temperatures and sputtering, smoking
fires. When burning artificial logs, please read and
follow the instructions provided by the manufacturer.
Never burn treated construction lumber or scraps.
These woods burn excessively hot and may contain
chemicals used to treat insects and fungus. When
burned, these chemicals can pose a significant hazard.
WARNING: BURNING IMPROPER FUEL (I.E.
CHARCOAL) CAN RESULT IN CARBON MONOXIDE
POISONING, WHICH MAY LEAD TO DEATH!
Carbon Monoxide Poisoning – Early signs of carbon
dizziness, or nausea. If you have these signs, get
fresh air at once! Have the appliance inspected by a
qualified service technician. Some people are more
affected by carbon monoxide than others. These
include pregnant women, people with heart or lung
-
cohol, and those at high altitudes.
Ventilation Requirements - Provide adequate air for
combustion. The fresh air requirements of this ap-
pliance must be met within the space where it will
be installed.
Smoke Detectors - Since there are always several
potential sources of fire in any home, we recommend
installing smoke detectors. If possible, install the
smoke detector in a hallway adjacent to the room (to
reduce the possibility of occasional false activation
from the heat produced by the appliance). If your local
code requires a smoke detector be installed within the
same room, you must follow the requirements of your
local code. Check with your local building department
for requirements in your area.
Creosote – Formation and Need for Removal
When wood is burned slowly, it produces tar and other
organic vapors, which combine with expelled moisture
to form creosote. The creosote vapors condense in
fire. As a result, creosote residue accumulates on
extremely hot fire.
The chimney shall be inspected at least twice a
year during the heating season to determine when a
creosote buildup has occurred. When creosote has
accumulated (1/8" [3 mm] or more) it shall be removed
to reduce the risk of a chimney fire.

Minimum/Maximum Chimney Height
The minimum height of the chimney, measured from the base of
the fireplace to the flue gas outlet of the termination, is 14.5 feet for
straight flue or a flue with one elbow set. The maximum distance
between elbows is 6 feet. For systems with two elbow sets, the
minimum height is 22 feet. The maximum height of any system is
50 feet. This measurement includes the fireplace, chimney sections
and the height of the termination assembly at the level of the flue

HEARTH EXTENSION
A hearth extension projecting a minimum of 20" in front of and a
minimum of 12" beyond each side of fireplace opening is required
to protect combustible floor construction in front of fireplace. Fab-
ricate a hearth extension using a material which meets the following
specifications: a layer of noncombustible, inorganic material having
2
thick. For example, if material selected has a k factor of 0.25, such
as glass fiber, the following formula would apply:
0.25 x 1.0" = 0.30" thickness required
0.84
Thermal conductivity "k" of materials can be obtained from manu-
facturer or supplier of noncombustible material. If hearth extension
is to be covered, use noncombustible material such as tile, slate,
brick, concrete, metal, glass, marble, stone, etc. Provide a means to
prevent hearth extension from shifting and seal gap between fireplace
frame and hearth extension with a non-combustible material such

FIRESTOP SPACERS (3600FS-8DM-1)
Firestop spacers are required at each point where chimney penetrates
a floor space. Their purpose is to establish and maintain required
clearance between chimney and combustible materials. When pipe
passes through a framed opening into a living space above, firestop
must be placed onto ceiling from below as shown in Figure 10.
They also provide complete separation from one floor space to an-
other or attic space as required by most codes. When double wall
pipe passes through a framed opening into an attic space, firestop
must be placed into an attic floor as shown in Figure 11, page 10.

Installing Flashing on a Metal Roof
When installing flashing on a metal roof, it is required that putty tape
be used between flashing and roof. Flashing must be secured to roof
using #8 x 3/4" screws and then sealed with roof coating to prevent
leakage through screw holes. A roof coating must also be applied
around perimeter of flashing to provide a proper seal.

Coverage of this 20 Year Limited Warranty is conditional upon use of an adequate fuel grate on factory-built fi replaces only, when applicable.
IHP is not responsible for inadequate fi replace system draft caused by air conditioning and heating systems, mechanical ventilation systems, or general construction condi-
