parts that can be easily replaced (i.e. damper parts,
screens, doors and side, and back refractory panels)
are to be removed. These parts must be stored and
readily available for replacement if the appliance is
ever removed. The removal of any parts that render
the replace unusable for burning solid fuel requires
a permanent label to be axed by the installer that
states the replace is unsuitable for burning solid fuel
unless the missing parts are replaced and the replace
is restored to its original, certied condition.
4. Chimney Caps - Mesh type chimney caps and spark
arrestors must be able to be removed for regular
inspection and cleaning. Otherwise the mesh should
be removed to prevent possible plugging. Check your
local re and building codes.
5. Chimney Liner - The chimney must be suitable for
burning solid fuel. Install a continuous stainless steel
liner from the ue collar of the appliance to the top of
the chimney. Liner must be UL Listed to UL1777.
6. Combustible Material Clearances - The replace and
chimney must be inspected to make sure there is
adequate clearance to combustible materials. This
includes the top, side, front, and back as well as
concealed combustibles in the chimney and mantle
areas. Your local building inspector or re authority
should have information on whether older replace
meet current codes and are suitable for use.
7. Makeup Air Requirements - This appliance requires
an adequate supply of makeup air to operate safely
and eciently. In some areas, this is a building code
requirement. Inadequate air supply will cause poor
combustion, inecient operation, creosote buildup,
back drafting and smoke pung into the living areas. If
any of the following conditions are evident, a makeup
air supply MUST be installed.
a. Existing fuel-red equipment shows evidence of
back pung, smoke roll-out, inecient operation, or
excessive smell in the living area.
b. Opening a window or door alleviates any of the above
problems or symptoms.
c. The building is constructed with a well-sealed vapor
barrier, tight tting windows, or has powered exhaust
fans.
d. Excessive condensation on windows in the winter.
e. The building has a ventilation system installed.
f. If, once installed, the solid-fuel appliance does not
draw steadily, burns poorly or ineciently, back-drafts
or experiences back-pung when adding fuel.

WARNING:
RISK OF FIRE - EXCESSIVE DRAFT CAN CAUSE
OVERFIRING AND A POSSIBLE STRUCTURE FIRE.
DO NOT OPERATE THIS APPLIANCE WITH THE FLUE
DRAFT EXCEEDING 0.06 in. w.c. (0.1 Pa).
The chimney ue is a critical component to the proper
and ecient operation of any heating appliance. Heating
appliances do not create draft, draft is provided by the
chimney. This appliance requires a draft of 0.05” water
column (0.1 Pa) at the ue collar. To achieve proper
draft, your chimney must meet three minimum height
requirements; minimum height from top of appliance (15
ft. total height from top of appliance), minimum height
above roof penetration (3 ft.), and minimum height (2 ft.)
above highest point of roof within a 10 ft. diameter from
the chimney. The chimney must also meet minimum and
maximum cross sectional requirements. For that reason a
continuous 6” stainless steel liner from the ue collar to the
top of the chimney is required. A stainless steel adapter is
recommended for fastening the stainless steel liner to the
ue collar. The male (or crimped) end of the adapter must
be installed inside the ue collar to allow condensation or
creosote in the liner to drain back into the rebox. Chimney
liners and/or adapters must be permanently fastened
