Country Flame FP42 - Manual (Page 9)

Version 7.1 viii
15. Due to high temperatures, the fireplace furnace should be located out of traffic and away from
furniture and draperies.
16. Clothing or other flammable material should not be placed on or near the fireplace furnace.
17. When disposing of ash accumulations from a fireplace, always place them in a metal container
with a tight fitting lid. The closed container must be placed on a non-combustible surface well
away from all combustible materials, pending final disposal. The ashes should be retained in
the closed container until all cinders have thoroughly cooled.
18. Safety screens, doors, or guards removed for maintenance must be replaced prior to operation.
19. In accordance with the Uniform Building Code, this fireplace is designed for installation in a
masonry fireplace hull designed for burning wood fuel. Failure to comply with restrictions
voids all warranties and violates the safety listing of the unit. Poor quality fuel directly (and
adversely) affects efficiency and cleanliness of operation. A Country Flame Dealer can
provide advice on the proper fuel choice for your area.
20. NEVER use gasoline, gasoline-type lantern fuel, kerosene, charcoal lighter fluid or similar
liquids to start or “freshen up” a fire in this heater. Do not store or use gasoline or other
flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.
21. INSTALL a smoke detector within the proximity of the Smart Fireplace Furnace.
22. NEVER put foreign objects or burn unapproved material in the Smart Fireplace Furnace.
23. NEVER block free airflow through open vents connected to the Smart Fireplace Furnace.
24. Chimney systems need to be checked twice a year (minimum) for soot or creosote buildup.
An improperly installed and maintained Smart Fireplace Furnace can cause home fires.
25. If optional fireplace doors are installed and closed, in the event of an extended power outage,
the combustion air opening of the fireplace door system must be opened at least one turn.
26. Maximum static pressure in fireplace furnace ductwork is one-quarter inch of water column.
27. If heated air from the Smart Fireplace Furnace is to be connected into the home central duct
system, the connection can only be on the air outlet side of the gas furnace.
28. If the Smart Fireplace Furnace is connected to the home central furnace system, care must be
taken NOT to violate any home central furnace manufacturer’s specified operating conditions.
29. The Smart Fireplace Furnace must incorporate a “Y” configuration connection from the
fireplace ductwork to the central duct system.
30. ALWAYS use a log grate or andiron while burning a fire. See warning label for more details.
