Installation
Your Insert is designed to be installed into a masonry or
factory built zero-clearance replace. The masonry replace
must be built according to the requirements of the Standard
of Chimneys, Fireplaces, Vents and Solid Fuel Burning
appliances, N.F.P.A. 211 (Latest Edition) or applicable
National, Provincial, State or local codes. The installation
shall conform to CAN/CSA-B365, Installation Code for Solid-
Fuel-Burning Appliances and Equipment. The factory built
zero-clearance replace and its chimney must be listed per
UL 127 or ULC S610 standards.
Warning: Under no circumstances is this heater to be
installed in a makeshift or "temporary" manner.
DO NOT CONNECT THIS UNIT TO A CHIMNEY FLUE
SERVICING ANOTHER APPLIANCE.
Fireplace Specications
Your replace is required to have the following minimum
sizes:
WIDTH (at front) 23 3/4" (602.44 mm)
WIDTH (at rear) 21-3/4" (552.5 mm)
HEIGHT 21" (533.4 mm)
DEPTH 18" (457.2 mm)
Chimney height 15' (minimum)
A metal tag is provided and is to be fastened to the back
wall of the replace, if the replace has been modied
to accommodate the insert.
Into a Masonry Fireplace
Inspect your replace for cracks, loose mortar or other
physical defects. If repairs are required, they should be
completed before installing your insert.
The replace chimney must be suitable for wood burning use.
Check for creosote build up or other obstructions, especially
if it has not been in use for some time.
The existing replace damper is to be locked open or
removed completely.
WARNING: Do not remove bricks or mortar from your
existing replace.
Exception: Masonry or steel, including the damper plate,
may be removed from the smoke shelf and adjacent damper
frame if necessary to accommodate a chimney liner,
provided that their removal will not weaken the structure of
the replace and chimney, and will not reduce protection
for combustible materials to less than that required by the
National Building Code.
The Insert must be installed in accordance with local and or
national building codes. The two methods of ue connection
that are acceptable in most areas are:
Full Flue Liner: (Fig.2) where a stainless steel rigid or
exible liner extends from the Insert ue collar to the top
of the chimney.
Positive Flue Connection: (Fig.3) where a throat blocker
plate and a short connector pipe is used.
Note: A clean-out door may be required under local
codes, when a positive ue connection is used. Consult
local codes.
Pacic Energy highly recommends the use of a full
liner as the safest installation and providing optimum
performance. When connected to a full liner, the Insert
is able to draft correctly and will prevent problems such
as difficult start-ups and smoking out the door.
For difficult installations this insert is approved for use
with a SPND.3OFFSETA - 3” offset box. Only this offset
box is approved for use with this insert. The use of any
other offset box may cause a hazzard and/ or void any
warranty.
