2.3 Combustion Air Control
The Combustion Air Control is a patented mechanism (Patent No: US
7,325,541 B2) that regulates the air flow into the firebox based on the
temperature of the unit. It is located on the top of the firebox, at the front
center of the unit. The combustion air control of the Elegance 36 has two
components: the Activator and the Burn Rate Selector (see Figure 2-5). The
left combustion control lever is the Activator. When starting a fire or adding
a new load of wood, the Activator must be pushed in to allow a primary
source of air to enter the firebox. The Activator will retract automatically with
heat. The right combustion control lever is the Burn Rate Selector. The Burn
Rate Selector can slide sideways to achieve different burn rates. When the
Burn Rate Selector is positioned to the left, a maximum burn rate is achieved
and when it is positioned to the right, a minimum burn rate is set.
WARNING: Never manipulate the Combustion Air Control with bare
hands as it gets hot when the Elegance 36 is in operation. Use the Cold
Hand Key (see Section 2.4) to adjust the Combustion Air Control.
2.4 Cold Hand Key
The Cold Hand Key is an accessory that comes standard with the Elegance 36
fireplace (Figure 2-6). The Cold Hand Key is a tool used to manipulate the
Combustion Air Control Levers when they are hot.
2.5 Chimney Sweeping Cap
The chimney sweeping cap found at the baffle of the Elegance 36 allows easy
access for chimney sweeping without having to remove any components of the
firebox (Figure 2-7).
WARNING: The chimney sweeping cap should be blocking
the access to the chimney at all times during combustion.
A chimney sweeping cap that is not blocking the baffle hole
during combustion is a safety hazard, will overheat the
fireplace and void the warranty.
2.6 Door
The Elegance 36 wood burning fireplace comes with a
Pyroceramic glasspaneldoor. Pyroceramic is thehighest grade
available for fireplaces and stoves and can withstand
temperatures up to 1300oF. To remove the door, open the door,
lift it and pull it towards the bottom until the rod exits from the
hinge holes.

3 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Before installing the unit, consult an authority having jurisdiction (such as
your municipal building department, your fire department, your fire
prevention department...) for any local codes and whether a permit is
required. In the absence of local codes, refer to the CSA B365 Installation
Code for Solid Burning Appliances and Equipment (Canada) or the ANSI
NFPA 211 Standard for Chimneys, Fireplaces, Vents and Solid Fuel-
Burning Appliances (USA). CAUTION: Modifications/alterations to the
unit/installation without written authorization from SUPREME
FIREPLACES INC. are strictly forbidden and will void the warranty.
Refer to Section 1 for further safety information. Carefully read the
instructions below before installing your Elegance 36.
3.1 Location
Determine the location of the Elegance 36 by taking into consideration the
following criteria:
•The size of the room with respect to the heat output of the fireplace.
•The proximity of windows, doors, and traffic flow.
•The necessary amount of space in front of the unit for the hearth
extension and mantel (Refer to sections 3.6 and 3.8).
•The clearances to combustible materials.
•The passage of the chimney.
If possible, select a location for the fireplace that will minimize
the number of offsets in the chimney course. Offsets will reduce
the draft, complicate the chimney sweeper’s work, and increase
installation costs. Do not install an offset directly onto the
unit/anchor plate. Technical drawings outlining the chimney
route should be prepared prior to the installation. NOTE: The
cutting of joists and rafters for floor, ceiling, and roof chimney
penetrations will affect the load bearing capacitiesof the dwelling
structure. To determine whether additional support is required,
consult your local building codes. Improper cutting of chimney
openings in the attic and roof will affect the bearing and thermal
insulating capacity, as well as the weather tightness of the
dwelling. Avoid incorrect workmanship by consulting a
professional engineer or a certified installer.
Through examination of the floor construction, ensure that the
fireplace and chimney system is resting on a surface capable of
withstanding its weight. Consult your building codes to see
whether additional structural supports are required (applicable
for rare and isolated cases).
Avoid having the chimney outlet near any obstructions (such as
trees and roof offsets) as the draft of the chimney may be
affected by wind turbulence. Ideally position the outlet of the
chimney at the highest area of the roof.
NOTE: It is strongly recommended to install a carbon
monoxide (CO) and smoke detector near the location of the
unit.

Refer to Figure 3-5 and Figure 3-6 for typical chimney installations.

11
3.2.4 Offset Installation
An offset installation (Figure 3-7) consists of the use of elbows to deviate from
unavoidable obstacles or to extend the chimney outside. The following list is a few
general rules to take note when installing offsets:
•A maximum of 2 offsets (2 elbows per offset) is permitted per installation.
•The maximum deviation is 45oin Canada and 30oin the US.
•Secure the elbows and the chimney components according the instructions
from the chimney manufacturer.
•A support strap, a wall support, or a roof support must be installed above each
offset to allow adequate support to the vertical chimney lengths.
•Never install an elbow in an opening of a floor, wall, ceiling, or roof. In
addition, only vertical chimney sections can be installed within ceiling/floor
openings.
•A minimum length of 12 inches of straight chimney is required from the top of
the unit before having an offset.
•Install a support for the first 15 feet of chimney.
The following are instructions for offset installations:
1. Rotate the elbow in the required direction and secure it to the adjacent
chimney section according to the chimney manufacturer’s instructions.
2. Follow the chimney manufacturer’s instructions to install the chimney length(s)
necessary for the offset.
3. Once the desired offset length has been achieved, install the second elbow to
redirect the venting to the vertical position.
4. Cut an opening in the floor/ceiling to allow the chimney to pass through.
5. Install the appropriate firestop.
CAUTION: For offset installations, always install a ventilated flashing and a
roof firestop unless otherwise specified by the chimney manufacturer.
Never install an elbow directly onto the unit.
3.2.5 Angled Wall Radiation Shield
For chimney installations requiring to pass through a combustible wall at a 30o
(Canada) or 45o(Canada and US) angle, an angled firestop or an angled wall radiation shield from the chimney
manufacturer must be installed within the wall opening. Install the angledfirestop and angled wall radiation shield
according to the manufacturer’s instructions. It is recommended to use an insulated angled wall radiation shield
in areas that experience cold climates.
3.2.6 Connecting to a Masonry Chimney

3.3.2 Clean Face Surround
The Clean Face surround comprises no louvers; however, an intake into the chase and an outtake through
gravity ducts is required for this configuration. The instructions below describe the installation of the Clean Face
surround. Refer to Figures 3-16 and 3-17 and Tables 3-4 and 3-5 for the instructions below. Refer to Section 3.4
for Gravity Kit installation instructions.
1. Remove the door of the unit and place it on a soft surface, such as a carpet or cardboard, to avoid any
scratches or damages.
2. Align the bottom Clean Face front cover (Item 1) and fasten it in place (Figure 3-14).
3. Align the top Clean Face front cover (Item 1) and fasten it in place (Figure 3-14).
4. Place the surround (Item 4 in Figure 3-16 or Item 6 in Figure 3-17) within the door holder and secure it in
place with 4 black screws (one on each corner). Make sure that the handles of the Combustion Air Control
pass through the slots of the surround.
5. Reinstall the door onto the unit.

3.4 Gravity Kit Installation
The Clean Face surround comprises no louvers; however,
an intake into the chase and an outtake through gravity
ducts is required for this configuration. The instructions
below describe the installation of the intake openings, and
the gravity ducts/outtakes. Note that in order to connect the
gravity ducts to the sides of the chase, the sides of the
chase need to be constructed and the front of the chase
needs to remain open; to connect the gravity ducts to the
front of the chase, the sides need to remain open and the
front of the chase needs to be constructed (Figure 3-22).
Please note that the SUPREME KG540 kit and the UCAC8
semi-rigid insulated ducts are required for the Gravity Kit
installation (Figure 3-21).
1. Remove the two 8” knockouts (2) at the top of the
unit using a flat head screwdriver (Figure 3-18).
2. Using the knockout as a template, cut the exposed
insulation. Make sure to remove any pieces of
insulation that has fallen into the unit.
3. Bend the tabs inside the 8 inch knockouts (Figure
3-19) upwards.
4. Install the 8 inch duct adapters (Item 7 in Figures
3-16 and 3-17) through the newly cut knockouts
and screw them to the bent tabs (Figure 3-20).
5. Determine the two locations of the air intakes on
the chase and cut a rectangular opening
10.5” (W) X 9.5” (H). Note that a distance of 3” is
required from the floor.
6. Determine the two locations of the air outtakes on
the chase and cut a rectangular opening
10.5” (W) X 9.5” (H). Note that a minimum distance
of 64” is required from the floor and a minimum of
6” is required from the ceiling (Figure 3-27). Please
note that the air outtake grilles can be installed in
the same room or in different rooms from each other. If the grilles are installed at different heights, more
heat will be distributed to the highest one.
7. From the exterior of the chase, place the duct/louver adapter into the air outtake hole and secure it onto
the wall with screws. Repeat for the other outtake.
8. Within the chase, place the grooved end of the adjustable 45oelbow into the flange of the duct/louver
adapter and secure it using aluminum tape. Repeat for the other outtake.
9. Measure the distance between the flange adapter on top of the unit and the flange of the duct/louver
adapter and cut the 8” semi-rigid insulated duct (SUPREME part number UCAC8) to the necessary
length. Repeat for the other outtake.
10. Complete the connections by sliding the ducts over the flange adapters and the flanges of the duct/louver
adapters and tighten both ends with the worm gear clamps.
11. From the exterior of the chase, fasten the grilles over the intake and outtake openings with the beige
screws.
