Installation

Only For Qualified Installers

Preliminary steps to prepare for the installation of

the ShadowLight XL Fireplace Insert
Remove the chimney cap if one exists so that the flue

may be cleaned and the venting installed.
Remove any existing hearth accessories such as glass

doors, spark screens, andirons, and grates.
Clean the chimney thoroughly to remove ash, soot,

and any obstructions, and then clean ash, soot, dust,

and debris from the fireplace.
The damper must be locked open to allow the 3"

venting to pass through. If it is necessary to modify

the damper area to allow passage of the venting, the

modifications should be allowed under local codes.

Confirm any planned changes with local building

officials.

Use Only Approved Venting
Observe local codes when venting the ShadowLight

XL. If no local codes exist, follow ANSI Z21.88-2002

installation code.
Do not connect the venting to the flue of a chimney that

serves a separate solid-fuel burning appliance.
The venting manufacturer's installation instructions

must be followed exactly.
The most efficient venting systems are those that have

a minimum number of bends and minimal horizontal

runs.
WARNING: Operation of this heater when not

connected to a properly installed and maintained

venting system can result in carbon monoxide (CO)

poisoning and possible death.

Exhaust restrictor plates must be installed depending

on type of gas and chimney height. See page 20 to

determine restrictor.
