INSTALLATION
NOTICE: This heater is intended
for use as supplemental heat.
Use this heater along with your
primary heating system. Do not
install this heater as your pri-
mary heat source. If you have a
central heating system, you may
run system’s circulating blower
while using heater. This will help
circulate the heat throughout the
house. In the event of a power
outage, you can use this heater
as your primary heat source.

the chimney ue and rebox
must be cleaned of soot, creo-
sote, ashes and loose paint by

Creosote will ignite if highly
heated. A dirty chimney ue may
create and distribute soot within
the house. Inspect chimney ue
and rebox for damage. If dam-
aged, repair ue before operat-
ing heater.
WARNING: Seal any fresh
air vents or ash clean-out doors
located on oor or wall of re-

heat-resistant sealant. Do not
seal chimney ue damper.

CAUTION: This heater cre-
ates warm air currents. These

coverings or operating heater
where impurities (such as to-
bacco smoke, aromatic candles,
cleaning uids, oil or kerosene
lamps, etc.) in the air exist, may
discolor walls or cause odors.

to the air. Although this is benecial, installing
heater in rooms without enough ventilation air
may cause mildew to form too much moisture.
