A. Appliance Certication
This replace system has been tested and listed in ac-
cordance with UL127 and ULC-S610-M87 and (UM)84-
HUD standards for installation and operation in the United
States and Canada as described in this manual.
Check with your local building code agency before you
begin your installation to ensure compliance with local
codes, including the need for permits and follow-up in-
spections. Be sure local building codes do not supersede
UL specications and always obtain a building permit so
that insurance protection benets cannot be unexpectedly
cancelled.

B. Design and Installation Considerations
NOTICE: Checkbuildingcodespriortoinstallation.
• Installation MUST comply with local, regional, state and
national codes and regulations.
• Consult insurance carrier, local building inspector, re
ofcials or authorities having jurisdiction over restrictions,
installation inspection and permits.
1. Selecting Fireplace Locations
This replace may be used as a room divider, installed
along a wall, across a corner or used in an exterior chase.
See Figure 2.2.
Locating the replace in a basement, near frequently
opened doors, central heat outlets or returns, or other
locations of considerable air movement can affect the
performance.
Outside air must be used for combustion. The C40 comes
equipped with an outside air inlet to feed combustion air
from outside the home, along with an outside air termina-
tion cap; the rigid metal duct is required but not supplied.
Consideration should be given to these factors before
deciding on a location.

2. Locating Fireplace & Chimney
Location of the replace and chimney will affect perfor-
mance.
• Install within the warm airspace enclosed by the building
envelope. This helps to produce more draft, especially
during lighting and die-down of the re.
• Penetrate the highest part of the roof. This minimizes
the effects of wind loading.
• Locate termination cap away from trees, adjacent
structures, uneven roof lines and other obstructions.
• Minimize the use of chimney offsets.
• Consider the replace location relative to oor and ceiling
and attic joists.
• Take into consideration the termination requirements in
Sections 5 and 6.
Marginal Location:
• Below peak
Location NOT recommended:
• Not the highest point of the roof
• Wind loading possible
Multi-level Roofs
Windward
Leeward
Recommended Location:
• Above peak
Recommended:
• Insulated exterior chase
in cooler climates
Recommended Location:
• Above peak
• Inside heated space
Location NOT recommended:
• Too close to tree
• Below adjacent structure
• Lower roof line
• Avoid outside wall
Marginal Location:
• Wind loading possible
Not recommended in lower level due
to high negative pressure concerns
that effect draft
Figure 2.3 Recommended Chimney Locations
• Install the outside air kit with the intake facing prevailing
winds during the heating season.
• Ensure adequate outdoor air for all combustion
appliances and exhaust equipment.
• Ensure furnace and air conditioning return vents are not
located in the immediate vicinity of the replace.
• Avoid installing the replace near doors, walkways or
small isolated spaces.
• Recessed lighting should be a “sealed can” design.
• Attic hatches weather stripped or sealed.
• Attic mounted duct work and air handler joints and seams
taped or sealed.

D. Inspect Fireplace and Components
WARNING! Risk of Fire and/or Explosion! Damaged
parts could impair safe operation. DO NOT install dam-
aged,incompleteorsubstitutecomponents.Keepre-
placedry.
• Remove replace and components from packaging and
inspect for damage.
