b.Evacuate the house immediately
c.Notify fire department.
The average of the CO emission (carbon monoxide) is 100.4
g/hr. To maintain this rate, it’s recommended to operate the
appliance in low or medium burn rate.
The hazards with some fuels (e.g. Charcoal) and possibilities
of generating carbon monoxide and the hazards from carbon
monoxides.
When the smoke detector is activated is mean that the
smoke spill out of the appliance. Verify the door is close
and the draft in chimney is good.
Floor protection
Your stove must be installed on a non-combustible material
plate to protect the floor and avoid fire caused by:
•Projections of sparks when opening door or loading
logs;
•The heat radiation from stove runaway which might
cause an auto-ignition to the floor and the coating;
•Flow of creosote when there is a fire chimney.
The coating used for the protection must be non-combustible
and approved according to standard UL1618 for USA or
approved to the locals codes (Example: cement, brick, ceramic
tiles, etc.)
HORIZONTAL VENTING MANDATORY Non-combustible floor
protections must extend beneath the flue pipe when installed
with horizontal venting and it should extend 2 inches (51 mm)
beyond each side of the pipe.

combustion chamber and help the air from the tube burn most
of the gas from wood which wouldn’t be burnt in any other
manner.
The rockwool above the brick prevents leakage between the
bricks and keep a maximum heat inside combustion chamber.
It must cover up all the bricks and the air corridors of both sides.
IMPORTANT: The rockwool must not obstruct the smoke exit
way. Check from the hole in the flue collar and make sure that
is in the good position. Place two half-round steel parts on the
rockwool as illustrated.
1) Put 3 « A» bricks over the two top pipes and push them
against the back bricks. Be sure to eliminate any space
between the back bricks and the bricks you install as
shown.
2) Slide the rockwool between pipes and put it over the bricks
and check from the hole in the flue collar that the passage
of smoke is not obstructed.
3) Insert the 3 bricks “Y” between the pipes and the rockwool
(2)
4) Put two half-round steel disks over the rockwool near the
rear deflector (3) already in place. Be sure to put it under
the rear deflector to maximise the clearance between
rockwool and the rear deflector. Make sure the rockwool is
not obstructig the space by looking from the hole in the flue
collar.
WARNING: Obstructing smoke exit way under deflector can
force fume to exit by the door when open it and the stove
must not work properly.

GENERAL STOVE INSTALLATION STEPS
Location considerations
We recommend installation of this appliance by a certified
installer.
Consideration must be given to:
➢Safety;
➢Traffic flow;
➢Convenience;
➢Chimney and chimney connector required;
➢Draft.
Drawing your installation plan on paper is a good way to avoid
mistake.
THESE STOVE MODELS ARE NOT
APPROVED TO INSTALL IN AN ALCOVE
Write on the plan:
•Exact dimensions for clearances to combustible
material;
•Exact dimensions of the floor protection;
•Measurements of the chimney location. (If it not already
installed. Be sure to have all clearances recommended
by the factory-built chimney manufacturer to pass
through the ceiling and roof).
We recommend that a qualified building inspector and your
insurance company representative review your plan before and
after installation.
General steps of installation
1) Read the entire installation manual before installing
and using your stove.
2) Choose a spot where to install your stove. Read
section about floor protection dimension, localisation of
stove over the floor protection plate and combustible
material clearance. Once you have decided where to
install the stove, mark the roofat the center of chimney.
oTo be sure that the vertical center of the chimney,
use a plumb line and mark the center on the floor.
3) Check if it possible to pass chimney without damaging
the structural integrity of your house. If so, you have to
move the location of the stove while keeping the
minimum clearance or more to be sure. If you can’t
move the stove and have to cut through a beam, make
sure to keep the structural integrity of your house by
following state of the art and National building code.
oWe recommend installation of this appliance by a
certified installer.
Note: This appliance have to be connected to 6 inches
(15.24 cm) factory build chimney HT UL 103 or CAN/ULC
S629 compliant or a 6 inches (15.24 cm) masonry chimney
with a homologated sleeve inside. Do not install the
chimney directly at the outlet of the appliance. A chimney
connector (flue pipe) is required unless the appliance is
specifically approved for that type of installation.
4) Install the chimney following the manufacturer
instruction.
5) Put the stove directly on the floor aligned vertically with
the center of chimney, and trace the side of the stove
on the floor and remove it.
6) Trace the dimension of protection plate on the floor.
There must be 8 inch (20.3 cm) clearance from the side
and the back of the stove. . From the front of the door
opening, there must be a clearance of 16 inches (40.6
cm) in US and 18 inches (45 cm) in Canada. If the
space heater meeting the requirement of CAN/ULC
S627 is suitable for installation on a combustible floor
and do not require radiant floor protection.
7) Install the floor protection plate inside the mark (It must
be non-combustible).
8) Put the stove on the protection floor plate and respect
the offset clearance set at step 6. Be sure to center the
stove under the chimney. We recommend to fix the
stove to the floor with bolt in the slot made for this
purpose in the legs. In a mobile home, it is obliged to
fix the stove.
9) If you have an outside air inlet, you must use 4 inches
(10.16 cm) flexible aluminum pipe. The pipe must be
sealed with thermal resistant sealant and it has an air
intake with grate approved for this purpose.
10) Install the chimney connector on the stove. The pipe
must be fixed with at least 3 screws on the stove collar,
each chimney connector and the chimney collar.
Note: The single wall chimney connector must be 6 inches
diameter and have a minimum thickness of 24 gauge (0.025
inches 0.64 mm). Do not use galvanised steel chimney
connector.
