before starting installation and to follow these instructions
carefully during installation.
Installation of this kit MUST be performed by a qualified
service technician.
The HEAT-ZONE-PRIMO is carefully engineered and must
be installed only as specified. If you modify it or any of its
components you will void the warranty, and you may possibly
cause a fire hazard. Installation must be done according to
applicable local, state, provincial, and/or national codes.
WARNING! Risk of Fire! Either the HEAT-ZONE-PRIMO
or the HEAT-OUT-PRIMO PowerFlow™ Heat Manage-
ment System must remain ON during operation of the ap-
pliance. Overheating will occur. Appliance will shut down.
Introduction
The HEAT-ZONE-PRIMO PowerFlow™ Heat Management
System conveys warm air from the fireplace through air
ducts to remote locations in the same room or other rooms
in the building. Two HEAT-ZONE-PRIMO’s must be installed
with the PRIMO appliance or the appliance will overheat.
Two HEAT-ZONE-PRIMO’s are included in the kit.
Approvals
The flexible duct used with the HEAT-ZONE-PRIMO is
manufactured and marked to the requirements of UL-181,
Class I air duct.
This appliance comes standard with patented
SafeSurfaceTM Glass which keeps the surface temperature
of the barrier glass at a safe level and will still be hot to
the touch when operated for long periods of time.
If the barrier glass is removed, the inner glass temperature
will be very hot and cause burns.
