E. INSTALLATION IN TO A FACTORY
BUILT (METAL) FIREPLACE
(Refer to figure 20)
When installing into a factory built fireplace,
the firebox must accept the insert without
modification other than removing bolted or
screwed together pieces such as smoke
shelf/deflectors, ash lips, screen or door tracks
and damper assemblies. These items must be
reinstalled to restore the fireplace to its original
operating condition if the insert is removed
and not replaced. The removal of any part
must not alter the integrity of the listed
fireplace in any way. In zero-clearance
fireplace installations, when the fireplace
opening is above the floor or raised hearth, the
adjustable “Breckwell P22 Z-C Legs” can be
used to bridge the gap between the hearth
and stove bottom. Refer to figure 14.
The factory built fireplace must be listed per
UL 127. Installation must include a full height
listed chimney liner meeting type HT
requirements (2100 F) per 1777 (U.S.). The
liner must be securely attached to the insert
flue collar and the chimney top. The damper
area must be sealed to prevent room air
passage to chimney cavity.
Alteration of the fireplace in any manner is not
permitted except with the following exceptions:
• External trim pieces, which do not affect the
operation of the fireplace, may be removed
proving they can be stored on or within, the
fireplace for re-assembly if the insert is
removed.
• The fireplace damper may be removed to
install the chimney liner.
Circulating air chambers, louvers or cooling air
inlet or outlet ports (i.e. in a steel fireplace liner
or metal heat circulator) shall not be blocked.
Means must be provided for removal of the
insert to clean the chimney flue.
A permanent metal warning label must be
attached to the back wall of the fireplace
opening stating the following:
• “This fireplace has been altered to
accommodate a fireplace insert and should
be inspected by a qualified person prior to
re-use as a conventional fireplace.”
• This label is available upon request.
Final approval is contingent on the
authority having jurisdiction.
ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION
This stove is provided with a 6-foot grounded
electrical cord extending from the rear of the
stove. We recommend connecting to a good
quality surge protector that is plugged into a
standard three-prong, 120V, 60hz electrical
outlet. Voltage variations can lead to serious
performance problems. The Breckwell
electrical system is designed for 120V AC with
no more than 5% variation. Breckwell cannot
accept responsibility for poor performance or
damage due to inadequate voltage. If
connected to an older, two-prong outlet, a
separate ground wire should be run to a
proper ground (refer this to a qualified
technician). Always route the electrical cord so
that it will not come in contact with any hot part
of the stove.
SPECIAL MOBILE HOME REQUIREMENTS
WARNING: DO NOT INSTALL IN A SLEEPING ROOM.
For installation in a mobile home, an outside source of combustion air must be used (see
“COMBUSTION AIR SUPPLY”).
The P22 must be grounded to the steel chassis of the home with 8 Ga. copper wire using
a serrated or star washer to penetrate paint or protective coating to ensure grounding.
The P22 must be securely fastened to the floor of the mobile home through the two holes
in the rear of the stove using 2, ¼” lag bolts that are long enough to go through both a
hearth pad, if used, and the floor of the home. (See figure 21)
Refer to “VENTING” for proper exhaust configurations.
CAUTION: THE STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY OF THE MOBILE HOME FLOOR, WALL
AND CEILING/ROOF MUST BE MAINTAINED.
