THIS APPLIANCE MUST NOT BE
CONNECTED TO A CHIMNEY OR FLUE
SERVING ANY OTHER APPLIANCE OF
ANY KIND.
LOCATION:
In selecting the location, the aesthetic and
functional use of the appliance are primary
concerns; However, proper venting systems and
access to the fuel supply are also important issues.
Due to the high surface temperatures of the
Allagash, always consider the proximity of traffic
ways, furniture, draperies, etc.
This appliance may be located on or near
conventional construction materials. HOWEVER,
always maintain the proper clearances to
combustibles, as this provides adequate
ventilation air around the appliance.
The following clearances and hearth requirements
are the minimum requirements when installing
the Allagash gas stove near or on combustible
surfaces. Always provide adequate access around
the appliance for servicing and proper operation.
A combustible surface is anything that can burn
(i.e. sheet rock, wall paper, wood, fabrics etc.).
These surfaces are not limited to those that are
visible and also include materials that are behind
non-combustibles.
If you are not sure of the combustible nature of
a material, consult your local fire officials.
Remember, “Fire Resistant” materials are
considered combustible: they are difficult to
ignite, but will burn. Also, “fire-rated” sheet rock
is considered combustible.
The Allagsh B-Vent gas stove is not to be
connected or installed using any warm air duct
system.
Always maintain the proper clearances to the
appliance for the proper flow of combustion and
ventilation air to the stove.
Hot Surfaces
The Allagash gas stove will, during normal
operation, reach high surface temperatures
therefore:
· Due to the high operating temperatures this
appliance should be located out of traffic
and away from furniture and draperies.
· Children and adults should be alerted to the
hazards of high surface temperatures and
should stay away to avoid burns or clothing
ignition.
· Young children should be supervised while
they are in the same room as the Allagash
gas stove.
· Clothing or other flammable materials
should not be placed ON or NEAR the
Allagash gas stove.
· Surveiller les enfants. Garder les vetements,
les meubles, l’essence ou autres liquides a
vapeur inflammables loin de l’appareil.
· NEVER store or use gasoline or any other
flammable vapors or liquids in the vicinity
of the Allagash gas stove.
· Never burn any other materials in your
Allagash gas stove, it is strictly designed for
use with natural gas or propane fuel ONLY.
· Any safety screen, glass or guard removed
for servicing the appliance must be replaced
prior to operating the appliance.
Blower/Electrical Hazard
When the Allagash gas stove is installed with the
optional forced air Blower Kit (part #129161) the
stove must be electrically grounded in accordance
with local codes or, in the absence of local codes,
with the current NFPA 70- National Electrical
Code or CSA C22.1-Canadian Code.
The Allagash Blower Kit is already supplied with
a three-prong (grounding) plug for protection
against shock hazard and should be plugged
directly into a properly grounded three-prong
receptacle.
DO NOT CUT OR REMOVE THE
GROUNDING PRONG FROM THE PLUG.
Always unplug the Blower when performing
routine service to the Allagash gas stove.
