Drafting Performance

Draft is the force which moves air from the appliance up through the chimney. The amount of draft in your
chimney depends on the length of the chimney, local geography, nearby obstructions and other factors.
Too much draft may cause excessive temperatures in the appliance and may damage the heater.
Inadequate draft may cause backpuffing into the room and `plugging' of the chimney. Inadequate draft
will cause the appliance to leak smoke into the room through appliance and chimney connector joints. An
uncontrollable burn or excessive temperature indicates excessive draft.

Leveling Bolt Installation

MASONRY NOTE: Place a metal plate below the
bolts on masonry fireplaces to prevent damage to the
floor brick.

Two leveling bolts are pre-installed on the insert to
allow for proper leveling within the fireplace. To
access the bolts, remove the back corner firebricks
and cover plates “a” and “b”). The bolts are pre-
threaded to a weld-nut on the base of the insert. Use
a 3/4” socket wrench to screw the bolts down
(clockwise) until the insert is level (see “c”).

SEALING THE COVER PLATE: We recommend
sealing the cover plate with furnace cement (place on
underside of cover plate).

BOLT LENGTH: The included bolts allow
approximately 1” of rise. If additional rise is required,
use a longer 1/2-13 thread bolt. Make sure the
additional bolt length does not interfere with the cover
plate.
