INSTALLING DAMPER CLAMP
ACCESSORY FOR VENTED
OPERATION
Note: When used as a vented heater, appliance
must be installed only in a solid-fuel burning
replace with a working ue and constructed of
noncombustible material.
If your heater is a manually-controlled model, you
may use this heater as a vented product. There
are three reasons for operating your heater in the
vented mode.
1. The replace does not meet the clearance
to combustibles requirements for vent-free
operation.
2. State or local codes do not permit vent-free
operation.
3. You prefer vented operation.
If reasons number 1 or 2 above apply to you, you
must permanently open chimney ue damper. You
must install the damper clamp accessory (to order,
see Accessories, page 42). This will insure vented
operation (see Figure 10). The damper clamp will
keep damper open. Installation instructions are
included with clamp accessory.
See chart below for minimum permanent ue
opening you must provide. Attach damper clamp
so the minimum permanent ue opening will be
maintained at all times.
