Isokern Standard 36 - Fire-Lite Application; Fire-Lite Application General Information

General Information:
The Fire-Lite is an application of the Isokern Standard
and Magnum replaces designed, tested and listed with the
ability to be installed on a combustible oor system. The design
and installation require that the system use Class A metal ue,
or equivalent. The Fire-Lite assembled unit must sit on a raised,
noncombustible platform allowing a minimum 4” air space
between the Isokern base plate and the combustible oor.
Many of the requirements for the Fire-Lite such as re
brick installation, safety precautions and installation instructions
for the Isokern Standard and Magnum replaces will apply and
are referred to in previous pages of this manual. Refer to those
instructions for additional information.
The following pages will refer to installation
requirements specic to the Fire-Lite system.
Intended Use Statement:
The Fire-Lite replace is designed to sit on a
combustible oor system and is intended to burn solid wood
fuel, propane or natural gas. The replace is intended for use as
a supplemental heat source only and is not intended for heavy
use as a primary heating system.
Notes:
The local authority having code jurisdiction should be
consulted before installation to determine the need to obtain a
permit. Refer to page 4 of this manual for areas of concern.
Do not scale drawings. Illustrations in this manual are
not to scale and are intended to show “typical” installations.
Nominal dimensions are given for design and framing reference
only, since actual installations may vary due to job specic
design preferences. Always maintain the stated minimum
clearances to combustible materials. Do not violate any specic
installation requirements.
The Fire-Lite has been tested and listed by Warnock
Hersey (Report Nos. J20004277-231 and 632-912500) to UL
127-1999. These units are intended for installation in residential
homes, and other buildings of conventional construction.
Fire-Lite replace systems are also designed for
installation in accordance with the National Fire Protection
Association Standard for chimneys, replaces, vents and Solid
Fuel-Burning Appliances (NFPA 211).
Though any Class A or UL 103 metal chimney can be
installed with a Fire-Lite, the following installation instructions
refer to the FTF-13 chimney system. If an equivalent metal
chimney system is used, follow the metal ue manufacturer’s
explicit installation instructions.
Safety Instructions:
Because the Fire-Lite is an application of the Magnum
or Isokern Standard Series replaces, the safety instructions are
listed on pages 5 & 6 of this manual. Please refer to them and
read them carefully before installing your Fire-Lite system.
