Safety and Environmental Testing
The H530 Inserts have been tested by OMNI-Test Laboratories, Inc. of
Portland, Oregon and are listed to UL 1482 and ULC S628. They are
also EPA certified.
Features and Items Included
Your H530 has a built in convection system, so it creates air
circulation in the room to spread the heat faster and more evenly.
The stove has a small "cool" handle, which enables you to open the
door without the use of a glove (however, always use caution when
touching areas where HOT surfaces are located).
Included with the insert (in the firebox) are:
• Flue collar with a 45° elbow (to connect to stove/pipe)
• An oven mitt
• A easy to use lighter
• A can of touch-up paint (Remove from the stove!)
2. INSTALLATION
Precautions and Specifications
IF THIS STOVE IS NOT INSTALLED PROPERLY, A HOME FIRE MAY RESULT. TO REDUCE THE RISK,
PLEASE CAREFULLY FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS FOR INSTALLATION.
First, the stove must be installed according to the directions in
this manual. Consult your local Building Inspector or Fire Marshall
before installation about restrictions and installation inspection
requirements in your area. Also, in some areas a "special permit" is
required.
If utilizing an existing chimney, it is suggested that you have a
professional mason or stove installer do a complete check-up of your
chimney, liner, and flue.
In order for the stove to work and draw properly, sufficient air is
important! Be especially aware of any mechanical fans (e.g. kitchen
or bathroom) that may affect the proper draw.
In addition, make sure that the floor and sub-flooring is designed to
carry the extra weight of the insert.
The floor in front of the insert (if placed lower than 6.5 ” (16.5cm)
above ground) must be thermal protected by a minimum of ½ ” (1cm)
non-combustible material having a thermal conductivity of k=.84,
where k=(BTU)x(in.)/(hr)x(ft
2
)x(°F) (based on 1 ” thickness). To
substitute alternate material, you need to know the k value of that
material. Use the following formula to calculate thickness of
alternate material (inches): k= (AlternateMaterial/.84).
To the front and the sides floor protector must extend as indicated
below. When installing the insert, the heat distribution to other
rooms should be taken into consideration. The H530 Insert has a
heating capacity of approximately 1,076 ft
2
(100m
2
) based on a
standard ceiling height.
