PRePaRation foR instaLLation
• Remove the packaging from the appliance and check to make sure there is no damage. If damage is
found, please report it to both the carrier and your dealer as soon as possible. Take care not to strike
the finish when unpackaging the S50. Damage created by a utility knife (or the like) during unpackaging
will not be covered under warranty.
• Before beginning, carefully check the glass door and log set.
• Locate a position where the flue system of the stove can be properly installed without damaging the
integrity of the building; e.g. cutting a wall or ceiling joist.
• Check store and flue system clearance requirements.
• Locate the stove where it can be accessed by a gas supply line
