Figure 5 - Metal Fireplace Zero-Clearance Requirements
IMPORTANT:Please review the following carefully.
It is normal for inserts fabricated of steel to give off some expansion and/or contraction noises during the start up or cool
down cycle. Similar noises are found with your furnace heat exchanger or car engine.
It is not unusual for your insert to give off some odor the first time it is burned. This is due to the curing of the paint and any
undetected oil from the manufacturing process.
Please ensure that your room is well-ventilated. OPEN ALL WINDOWS DURING INITIAL BURN OFF/
CURING PHASE.
Burn your insert for a least six (6) hours on “HIGH” the first time you use it. Place fan in the “OFF” position during
this time.
