Installation Preparation
HINT: If converting to LP, convert the appliance prior to installation.
HINT: Install the logs last - they are fragile.
HINT: When determining the location of the stove, locate the wall studs (for horizontal penetrations)
and ceiling trusses (for vertical penetrations). You may wish to adjust the stove position
slightly to ensure the vent does not intersect with a framing member.
HINT: Fumes and smoke from the paint curing and oil burning off the steel may occur the first time
you start this heater. This is normal. We recommend you open windows to vent the room.
