INSTALLATION PREPARATION
FIREPLACE
1. Locate furniture and other materials away from the front of the fireplace to allow free
access to the fireplace.
2. Cover the hearth and adjacent floor areas with the drop cloth to protect from soiling or
marring the surface.
3. Remove the existing fireplace damper plate.
4. Thoroughly clean the fireplace of ashes and soot.
5. If the fireplace has an ash dump or outside air provision, these must be sealed off with
metal or tightly packed non-combustible insulation to prevent this cold air from entering
the fireplace chamber.
CAUTION
CHECK THE CHIMNEY AND SMOKE CHAMBER FOR EX-
CESSIVE BUILDUP OF CREOSOTE OR SOOT. ALSO CHECK FOR OBSTR-
UCTIONS, SUCH AS BIRD'S NESTS. IF THE CHIMNEY IS EXCESSIVELY
DIRTY CLEAN IT, OR HAVE SOMEONE CLEAN IT PROFESSIONALLY BEFORE
INSTALLING OR USING THE ROOM HEATER.
