Damper Stop Installation:
For Use With All Other Fireplaces
The Damper Stop provided keeps your damper
from accidentally closing during operation of your
set. This Damper Stop must be installed onto
your Damper at all times. NOTE: The damper
clamp is designed to hold the damper plate
open 3 inches. However, the damper must be
fully open when the log set is in operation.
Install the Damper Stop onto the edge of the
damper plate. Attach by securing the bolt pro-
vided to the damper plate with an adjustable
wrench. (Fig. 3)
If the Damper Stop does not fit, drill a 1/4” hole
into the damper plate and install an
anchor bolt with nut, at a 90 degree angle, so that
the damper plate will remain fully open.
The proper finished installation of the Damper
Stop is shown in Figure 4. If the bolt fails to block
the damper in an open position, the damper
should be removed from the chimney.
To check your vent for proper drafting: Light a
tightly rolled newspaper on one end and place it at
the inside front edge of the fireplace. Observe the
smoke and be sure the vent is properly drawing it
up the chimney. If the smoke is drawn
