Inspection and Cleaning Prior to installing the gas insert: • Have the chimney and adjacent structure inspected and cleaned by qualified professionals. Hearth & Home Technologies recommends that NFI or CSIA certified professionals, or technicians under the direction of certified professionals, conduct a minimum of a NFPA 211 Level 2 inspection of the chimney. • Replace component parts of the chimney and fireplace as specified by the professionals. • Ensure all joints are properly engaged and the chimney is properly secured. • Ensure combustible mantel and surround clearances comply with applicable codes and regulations for solid- fuel fireplaces. In the absence of local or regional codes, refer to NFPA 211. • Ensure chimney is constructed of non-combustible materials. • Ensure chimney is clean and in good working order. • Ensure that all chimney cleanouts fit properly to prevent air leakage into chimney. B. Flue Damper Fully lock the solid fuel fireplace’s flue damper in the open position, OR completely remove it. C. Gas Line Note: If the factory built fireplace has no gas access hole provided, an access hole of 1 inch (25 mm) diameter or less may be drilled through the lower sides or bottom of the firebox in a proper workmanship - like manner. This access hole must be plugged with non-combustible insulation after the gas supply line has been installed. • Install gas line into firebox cavity. • Check local codes and gas line sizing requirements following NFPA54. See Section 8. D. Hearth or Hearth Extension WARNING! Risk of Fire!
