This Damper Stop is designed to work on all CFM
Specialty Home Products BR, BC, SR, SC, TF
and TL series fireplaces. For all other fireplaces,
refer to Page 6.
When installing a decorative gas appliance in a
fireplace, some local codes require this Damper
Stop to be used so the Damper will not close
completely. To install the Damper Stop:
The Damper Locking Bracket is already installed
on all BR, BC, SR, SC, TF and TL fireplaces.
Locate the Damper Locking Bracket on the left
side of the fireplace’s Combustion Dome. (Fig. 1)
With the Damper open, align the two slots on
either side of the cut-out on the Damper Stop with
the two small holes on the angled portion of the
Damper Locking Bracket. Attach the Damper
Stop with the Screws provided, as shown in
Figure 2.
NOTE: Some of the early fireplace units may not
have the holes in the end of the Damper Locking
Bracket. If this is the case, use the Damper Stop
as a template to drill two (2) 1/8” holes in the
Damper Locking Bracket to mount the Damper
Stop.
NOTE: Your gas log set is assembled at the factory to be installed in a fireplace plumbed with the gas
on the right side (facing). If your fireplace is plumbed with the gas on the left side remove fittings on
right and left side of straight burner tube and switch sides, at the same time put front burner tube on
right side with the elbow fitting. (Fig. 5a and 5b)
You may also run a flexible connector (or as per local codes) along the back wall of the fireplace to
bring your gas line to the right hand side. You can then place the set in front of the flexible connector.
