ow,andthefactthattheappliancewillneedtobevented
totheoutside.This appliance may only be installed into
an existing masonry or manufactured wood-burning
replace or using the optional zero-clearance cabinet to
build into a newly constructed chase.Itisagoodideato
planyourinstallationonpaper.Useexactmeasurementsfor
clearances and oor protection, before actually beginning
theinstallation.
Maintain specied vent clearance to combustible

andallapplianceclearancesaslistedinthismanual.
Check with your local building code agency before you
begin your installation. Local codes may supersede the
testlaboratoriesspecications.Alwaysobtainanyrequired
permit(s) so that insurance protection benets cannot be
unexpectedlycancelled.Ifanyassistanceisrequiredduring

2. Room Sensor Location
The room sensor's location will have some effect on the
appliance'soperation.Whenthesensorislocatedcloseto
the appliance,it may requirea higher settingto keep the
rest of the house comfortable. If the sensor is located in
anadjacentroom,orfartherawayfromthestove,youwill
