WARNINGS  
• Hot! Do not touch! The glass and surfaces of this appliance will  
be hot during operation and will retain heat for a while after  
shutting off the appliance. Severe burns may result.  
• Carefully supervise children in the same room as appliance.  
 
13. Inspectyourchimneyatleastonceamonthduringtheburn-  
ing season to check for soot and creosote accumulations.  
Any accumulations over 1/8” thick should be removed by  
a professional chimney sweep. Do not attempt to burn out  
heavy creosote accumulations with a hot fire. If large ac-  
cumulationsareoccurring,reviewyourburningprocedures.  
14. Ifacreosotereshoulddevelop,theredepartmentshould  
be called immediately and then attempts should be made  
to control the fire until assistance arrives. If a “runaway”  
fire should develop causing over-heating of the insert, the  
door and draft regulators should be closed immediately.  
The fire should die down once deprived of oxygen. After a  
severe chimney fire, the complete chimney system should  
be checked before further use.  
IMPORTANT SAFETY AND WARNIING

ments must be followed exactly and without compromise.  
In the absence of local codes the following standards and  
codes must be followed.  
18. In the U.S.A, install in accordance with the National Fire  
Protection Association’s Code, NFPA 211, Standards for  
Chimneys,Fireplaces,VentsandSolid-Fuel-BurningAppli-  
ances, or similar regulations, may apply to the installation  
of a Solid-Fuel-Burning appliance in your area. In Canada,  
the guideline is established by the CSA Standard, CAN/  
CSA-B365-M93, Installation Code for Solid-Fuel-Burning  
Appliances and Equipment.  
19. DO NOT CONNECT TO OR USE IN CONJUNCTION WITH ANY

Do not allow children to play near the insert without close  
supervision. Do not touch the insert while it is burning.  
Use extreme caution while the unit is in use. Surface tem-  
peratures become dangerously hot and can cause serious  
burns.  
9. Donotallowanyonetooperatetheinsertwhoisnotfamiliar  
with the operating instructions.  
10. Attempts to achieve heat output rates that exceed insert  
design specifications can result in permanent damage to  
the insert. Never leave your insert unattended on high burn  
rates. This may cause overfiring. Overfiring the insert may  
cause a house fire. If the insert glows, you are overfiring.  
11. Keep a water hose or hand-operated fire extinguisher close  
for safety.  
23. Do not make any make-shift compromises during installa-  
tion. Any modification or alteration may result in damage  
to the appliance or dwelling and will void the warranty,  
certification and listings of this unit.  
12. Smoke Detectors - Since there are always several poten-  
tial sources of fire in any home, we recommend installing  
smoke detectors. If possible, install the smoke detector in  
a hallway adjacent to the room (to reduce the possibility  
of occasional false activation from the heat produced by  
the insert). If your local code requires a smoke detector  
be installed within the same room, you must follow the  
requirements of your local code. Check with your local  
building department for requirements in your area.  
24. These appliances are designed as supplemental heaters.  
Therefore, it is advisable to have an alternate heat source  
when installed in a dwelling.  
25. Do Not Overfire – If Heater or Chimney Connector Glows,  
You Are Overfiring.

performance problems as well as be a safety hazard. A draft test should  
read greater than .04’ W.C. (inches water column) and less than .08”  
W.C. As per NFPA-211 standard (see paragraph below), the installer  
must take into account all variables within the installation and install the  
appliance in such a manner that satisfies the draft requirements of the  
appliance. See Chimney Guidelines below to assist you in selecting the  
proper venting system for your installation.  
TESTING INFORMATION  
Thismanualdescribestheinstallationandoperationofthesenon-catalytic  
wood heaters. These heaters meet the U.S. Environmental Protection  
Agency’s emissions limits for wood heaters sold on or after July 1, 1990.  
This heater has been developed, tested and constructed in accordance  
with the requirements of UL 1482, ULC S628 and HUD standards and  
is listed by OMNI Test Laboratories, Portland, OR. It has been approved  
for residential and alcove installations.  
American National Standards Institute ANSI/NFPA 211, Standard for  
Chimneys, Fireplaces, Vents, and Solid Fuel-Burning Appliances  
- See Draft Section: A chimney or vent shall be so designed and con-  
structed to develop a flow sufficient to completely remove all flue and  
vent gases to the outside atmosphere. The venting system shall satisfy  
the draft requirements of the connected appliance in accordance with the  
manufacturer’s instructions.  
DRAFT REQUIREMENTS  
Your wood fireplace insert is dependent upon a properly functioning  
chimney for optimum performance. It is a high efficiency appliance that  
losesmuchlessheatupthechimneythanolderappliancesandreplaces.  
For this reason it is important to match the fireplace insert to the chimney.  
The chimney has two functions:  
Chimney Guidelines:  
• This appliance requires approximately 12 feet minimum of “effective  
draw” provided by the venting system. As a rule of thumb, every 90  
degree total direction change in the venting will result in a loss of  
approximately 5 feet of “effective draw.” Example: If two 45 degree  
offsets are used, subtract 5 feet from the actual vertical vent height  
to determine your “effective draw.” In this case if you had 14 feet of  
vertical vent, the effective draw would only be approximately 9 feet  
(14 ft. - 5 ft. = 9 ft.), therefore it may be necessary to add additional  
height to the venting system.  
1. It draws combustion air into the appliance (without air, no fuel will  
burn) and  
2. It exhausts combustion by-products. Your new appliance is what is  
known as a “natural draft” appliance.  
The appliance depends solely on the natural draft of the chimney system  
to draw combustion air into the unit. Draft is the force that moves air  
from the appliance up into 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 (overfiring). Slow or inadequate draft  
equals poor combustion and possible smoking problems. The following  
are some conditions that may contribute to poor chimney draft:  
1. A chimney too large for your appliance.  
2. A chimney with not enough height to produce adequate draft.  
3. A chimney with excessive height (this may allow exhaust to cool too  
much before exiting, which will stall the rate the exhaust exits).  
4. Offsets in the venting system are too restrictive (see Chimney Guide-  
lines).  
• Inwellinsulatedandweathertighthomes,itmaybedifficulttoestablish  
a good draft up your chimney. The poor draft is caused by a shortage  
of air in the house (see Negative Pressure Warning on Page 5).  
Chimney Height Requirements  
The chimney must extend 3’ (.92m) above the level of roof penetration  
and a minimum of 2’ (.61m) higher than any roof surface within 10’  
(3m) (see below). Check with your local building officials for additional  
requirements for your area.  
Inadequate draft will cause the appliance to leak smoke into the room  
through the fireplace insert and the chimney connector joints.  
Less than  
10' (3 m)  
Excessive draft may cause an uncontrollable burn or a glowing red  
fireplace insert or chimney part.  
2’ (610 mm) Min.  
3' (914 mm)  
Overfiring Damage - If the heater or chimney connector glows, you are  
overfiring. Other symptoms may include: Cracking, warping or burning  
out of components, plated accessories may turn color, stove glass may  
develop a haze, which will not come off with cleaning.

Overfiring of a stove or fireplace insert is a condition where excessive  
temperatures are reached, beyond the design capabilities of the appli-  
ance. The damage that occurs from overfiring is not covered under the  
manufacturer’s limited warranty.  
Figure 1 - Chimney Height Requirements  
Also see Troubleshooting on Page 17.  
To pass inspection in nearly any jurisdiction, the chimney must meet both  
safety and exhaust flow requirements. The (3’ by) 2’ by 10’ rule applies  
to both masonry and factory-built chimneys.  
SELECTING THE PROPER VENTING SYSTEM  
* Ref. USA - National Standard, NFPA 211-latest edition and Canada  
National Standard CSA B365-01-latest edition. Vents installed with a  
listed cap shall terminate in accordance with the terms of the cap’s  
listings.  
The appliance is merely one component of a larger system. The other  
equally important component is the venting system. This is necessary for  
achieving the required flow of combustion air to the fire chamber and for  
safely removing unwanted combustion by-products from the appliance.  
If the venting system’s design does not promote these ends, the system  
maynotfunctionproperly.Poorlyfunctioningventingsystemsmaycreate

NEGATIVE PRESSURE WARNING  
FUEL  
This appliance is not designed to be operated in a negative pressure.  
In very airtight homes with large kitchen exhaust fans, furnace cold air  
returns, fresh air exchange systems and any other air system in close  
proximity to the heating appliance may create a negative pressure in the  
same room as the heating appliance. This can create dangerous back  
drafting of the fireplace insert and chimney joints, drawing combustion  
by-products into the home. Be sure your home has adequate makeup air  
to eliminate negative pressures caused by the above-mentioned sources.  
Lennox Hearth Products accepts no liability for damages resulting from  
negative pressures described above.  
Thisunitisdesignedandengineeredtoburn,dry,well-seasonedwoodonly.  
Dry, seasoned wood is that which has been cut, split and allowed to dry  
under a covered area where air is free to flow and circulate under and  
around the wood (not under a tarp or plastic). Make sure wood is not  
stacked directly on the ground, it may absorb moisture from the ground.  
It should be allowed to dry in these conditions for a minimum of six  
months, preferably one year or more. IT MUST BE UNDERSTOOD THAT  
WOOD CANNOT BE LEFT IN ANY KIND OF WET OR DAMP AREA OR IT  
WILL NEVER BECOME COMPLETELY SEASONED.  
Ventilation Requirements - Provide adequate air for combustion. The  
fresh air requirements of this appliance must be met within the space  
where it will be installed. Ventilation is essential when using a Solid-Fuel-  
Burning heater. In well insulated and weather tight homes, it may be  
difficult to establish a good draft up the chimney (caused by a shortage  
of air in the home). The lack of air is caused by many common household  
appliances which exhaust air from the home (such as a furnace, heat  
pump, air conditioner, clothes dryer, exhaust fans, fireplaces, and other  
fuel burning appliances). Also, the combustion process of this heater  
uses oxygen from inside the dwelling. If the available fresh air delivery  
inthedwellingisinsufficient to support thedemandsof these appliances,  
problems can result (i.e. excessive negative pressure can develop in  
the dwelling which will affect the rate at which this appliance can draft  
thus resulting in performance problems. To correct this problem it may  
help to open a window (preferably on the windward side of the house).  
Your fireplace insert will not operate at the level that it is meant to unless  
you use seasoned, dry wood. Do not burn driftwood or wood that has  
been in salt water, doing so will void your warranty. Do not burn treated  
wood, coal, garbage, cardboard, solvents, or colored paper. Burning  
treated wood, garbage, solvents, or colored paper may result in the  
release of toxic fumes. This type of burning will also void your warranty.  
Do Not store fuel within space heater installation clearances or within  
the space required for refueling and ash removal.  
PAINT CURING  
If your fireplace insert has plated accessories, be sure to clean it  
with a household type glass cleaner and a very soft cloth to remove  
any fingerprints and residues prior to the first fire and before any fire  
if the gold has been handled or soiled. Do not close the door tightly  
during the “Burn-In Period.” Also, open the door frequently (every  
5-10 minutes) to keep the gasket from adhering to the curing paint.  
Ventilate the house well during these first firings as the paint gives off  
carbon dioxide and unpleasant odors. It is recommended that persons  
sensitive to an imbalance in the indoor air quality avoid the fireplace insert  
during the curing process.  
CREOSOTE, FORMATION AND NEED FOR REMOVAL  
When wood is burned slowly, it produces tar and other organic vapors,  
which combine with expelled moisture to form creosote. The creosote  
vapors condense in the relatively cool chimney flue of a slow-burning  
fire. As a result, creosote residue accumulates on the flue lining. When  
ignited, this creosote makes an extremely hot fire. The chimney and  
chimney connector should be inspected at least once monthly during  
the heating season to determine if a creosote build-up has occurred. If  
creosote has accumulated (1/8” [3 mm] or more), it should be removed  
to reduce the risk of a chimney fire.  
Your new appliance is painted with a high temperature paint that cures  
during the first few firings. We recommend that you put your fireplace  
insert through a regimen of three burns. The first two should last for 20  
minutes each at 250 degrees (the fireplace insert should be allowed to  
cool completely between each burn). The third should be a burn of at least  
450 degrees F. for 45-60 minutes. The paint will become soft, gummy  
and emit non-toxic smoke during these burns. After the fireplace insert  
cools down for the third time, the paint will harden. DO NOT BUILD A  
LARGE ROARING FIRE UNTIL THIS CURING EFFECT IS COMPLETE OR  
YOU MAY DAMAGE THE FINISH OF YOUR STOVE OR INSERT. Spray can  
touch-ups should be done only with a high temperature stove paint (cat.  
no. H8159), available from all Lennox Hearth Products dealers.  
Establish a routine for the fuel, wood burner and firing technique.  
Check daily for creosote build-up until experience shows how often  
you need to clean to be safe. Be aware that the hotter the fire the  
less creosote is deposited, and weekly cleaning may be necessary  
in mild weather even though monthly cleaning may be enough in  
the coldest months. Contact your local municipal or provincial fire  
authority for information on how to handle a chimney fire. Have a  
clearly understood plan to handle a chimney fire.  
BURN-IN PERIOD  
DISPOSAL OF ASHES  
Please be patient with the heat output of your fireplace insert for the first  
few weeks. The steel will go through a curing process that eliminates  
moisture,whichisdeepinthesteelandrebrick.Thismoisturewillreduce  
initial heat output of your fireplace insert and may make it difficult to  
start. After you have broken in the paint on the fireplace insert it will be  
necessary to build hot fires to thoroughly remove the moisture from the  
appliance. Running the fireplace insert with the draft fully open for 1 to  
1-1/2 hours after starting and adding gener ous amounts of fuel during  
the first week or two should complete the curing process. We recom-  
mend the use of a thermometer attached to the fireplace insert top or  
chimney. Temperatures on the connector pipe should run in the 250-600  
degreerange. (DONOTOVERFIRETHESTOVEORINSERTDURINGTHIS  
PROCESS. IF THE STOVE OR CHIMNEY BECOMES RED, REDUCE THE  
AMOUNT OF AIR ENTERING THE STOVE OR INSERT IMMEDIATELY).  
Ashes should be scooped out of a cool stove or insert with a small metal  
shovel. Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a tight fitting  
lid and moved outdoors immediately. Other waste shall not be placed  
in this container. The closed container of ashes should be placed on a  
non-combustible floor or on the ground, well away from all combustible  
materials, pending final disposal. If the ashes are disposed of by burial in  
soil or otherwise locally dispersed, they should be retained in the closed  
container until all the cinders have thoroughly cooled. Ashes can ignite  
up to 72 hours after removal from the stove or insert.

1. Install bricks #1-18 in the numbered sequence shown in Figure 2.  
2. Next, you will install the rear baffle boards which are the smaller  
two of the four baffle boards. The boards will be installed with the  
3-9/16” dimension from the front to the rear of the firebox. These  
boards will be placed on the top side of the rear baffle just to the  
rear of the middle secondary tube, you will push the baffle boards  
towards the rear of the firebox until they fall in place at the rear side  
of the middle secondary tube. You will place one board to the far  
left side of the firebox and one board to far right side of the firebox.  
Confirm that both boards are laying flat on the rear baffle and that  
they are not overlapping each other.  
3. Next, you will install the baffle blanket. It will be installed with the  
11” dimension from the front to rear of the firebox. Install by lifting  
it into place between the front and rear baffle. Place the blanket over  
the rear baffle and rear baffle boards that you have just installed. Next  
you will place the baffle blanket that is protruding beyond the front  
side rear baffle on the top side of the front baffle.

two remaining baffle boards which are the larger two baffle boards  
of the four baffle board kit. They will be installed with the 7-3/8”  
dimension from the front to rear of the firebox. Start by setting the  
back side of the board on the rear baffle making sure that it is placed  
far enough back to lift up and onto the front baffle. Next you will  
place the front edge of the front baffle boards on the top side of the  
front baffle and slide them towards the firebox front until it stops  
against the front baffle edge. You will do this with each front baffle  
board with one to the right side of the firebox and one to the left  
side of the firebox. Confirm that the baffle blanket is directly on top  
of the baffle boards and that it does not protrude beyond the front  
baffle or front baffle boards as shown in Figure 4.

The hearth extension or alternate material used as a floor/hearth protec-  
tor must be constructed of a durable noncombustible material having an  
equal orbetterthermalconductivityvalue(lower kvalue) of k=.84 BTU/IN  
FT2 HR °F or a thermal resistance that equals or exceeds r = 1.19 HR °F  
FT2 IN/BTU with a minimum thickness of 3/8” in USA or 3/4” in Canada.  
With these values, determine the minimum thickness of the alternate  
material required using the formula(s) and shown in Table 2 for USA  
and Table 3 for Canada.  
Answer - The minimum required thickness of the Micore 160 is .156"  
therefore round up to near est standard thickness available which is

POSITIVE FLUE CONNECTION  
A positive flue connection is providing a seal between the vent pipe or  
liner and the existing fireplace chimney for the purpose of preventing  
room air passage to the chimney cavity of the fireplace. There are dif-  
ferent approved methods to achieve this. See Direct Connect Positive  
Flue Connection on this page.

SIDE VIEW  
A qualified installer should evaluate the existing fireplace to determine  
the best method for achieving a positive flue connection between the  
vent pipe or liner and the existing fireplace chimney. The most common  
method for achieving a positive flue connection in masonry fireplaces  
is to secure a seal-off plate (i.e. 22-gage sheet steel) in the fireplace  
throat using masonry screws. Other acceptable methods include packing  
noncombustible material (i.e. high temp fiberglass or ceramic insulation)  
around the vent pipe or using a flue adapter. Whatever “seal off” method  
is used, it must effectively seal the area to prevent room air passage to  
the chimney cavity of the fireplace.

SEE YOUR DEALER FOR RECOMMENDATIONS. IMPROPER  
INSTALLATION OR MIS-USE WILL VOID YOUR WARRANTY AND  
CREATE A SERIOUS SAFETY HAZARD.  
This appliance must only be installed in a zero clearance factory-built  
fireplace using 6” (152 mm) stainless steel pipe extending from the  
insert’s flue into the chimney of the fireplace. For optimum safety and  
performance we recommend a full length stainless steel liner directly  
connected to the insert’s flue outlet.  
Remove any doors or screen materials from the fireplace opening. Re-  
move the damper mechanism completely. Also remove grates or ember  
catches inside the fireplace hearth. If your fireplace is equipped with a  
smoke shelf or baffle and if it interferes with the installation it may be  
removed. Side and rear refractory may also be removed, if necessary,  
to facilitate installation. No modifications shall be done unless allowed  
on the previous list. Retain all removed parts, they must be reinstalled  
before the fireplace can be used in it’s original condition.

INSERT PRE-INSTALLATION PREPARATION  
The fireplace cavity must be 36” (914 mm) in width, 21” (533 mm) in  
height and 14” (356 mm) in depth. Installation in larger size fireboxes  
of the same brands is permissible.  
Install the two 3” (76 mm) long bolts (with the head up) through the nuts  
attached to the insert on the lower rear corner of each side. This will allow  
you to level the insert when placed into the fireplace.  
Installations into other brands of the same size is permissible only with  
approval from local building officials.  
Measure from the front of the top surround mount to the center of the  
flue. Determine if there is an alignment problem in connecting a liner  
from the chimney to the insert’s flue. If there is an alignment problem,  
connection can be made using a short piece of stainless flex or a stain-  
less steel offset box (available from your dealer). Before installing the  
liner, make any attachment brackets or drill any holes in the liner, offset  
box, or insert. Once installed, it may be difficult or impossible to drill  
additional holes.  
Modifications allowed to the factory-built fireplace are as follows:  
- Remove the damper  
- Remove the smoke shelf or smoke baffle  
- Remove ember catches  
- Remove viewing screen/curtain  
- Remove side and rear bricks  
- Remove the fire grate  
- Remove doors  
FACTORY BUILT FIREPLACE WARNING TAG  
The factory built chimney must be listed per UL 127 (US), and meet type  
HT requirements of UL 103 (US). Factory built fireplace chimneys tested  
to UL 127-1998, may be at the fireplace manufacturer’s option, tested to  
the same criteria as UL 103 HT requirements. If the chimney is not listed  
as meeting HT requirements, or if the factory built fireplace was tested  
prior to 1998, a full height listed chimney liner must be installed from  
the appliance flue collar to the chimney top. The liner must meet type  
HT requirements (2100ºF) per UL 1777 (US). The liner must be securely  
attached to the insert flue collar and the chimney top. To prevent room air  
passage to the chimney cavity of the fireplace, seal either the damper area  
around the chimney liner with high temperature sealant or the fireplace  
front with fiberglass batting.  
The fireplace must not be altered, except for the exceptions listed  
below. The permanent metal warning label provided must be attached  
to the back of the fireplace, stating that the fireplace may have been  
altered to accommodate the insert, and must be returned to original  
condition for use as a conventional fireplace. The following modifica-  
tions of factory built fireplaces are permissible: removal of damper,  
removal of smoke shelf or baffle, removal of ember catches, removal  
of fire grate, removal of viewing screen/curtain, and removal of doors.  
Note: Secure the tag using screws or nails to the fireplace.

CHIMNEY LINER INSTALLATION  
POST INSTALLATION CHECKS  
1. Check that all chimney pipe joints are securely fastened.  
2. Be sure all roof flashings are watertight (if applicable).  
Remove the existing chimney cap and install a stainless steel liner into  
the chimney (if a special section has been used or drilled to attach to the  
insert, it must be the bottom piece). The next piece should be a dripless  
slip joint; followed by the rest of the chimney liner. Fasten the chimney  
at the top when it is positioned so that the slip joint will allow the lowest  
piece to slide up enough to clear the insert during installation. Insulate  
the top four to six feet between the liner and the chimney to prevent heat  
loss. Install the cap and flash if necessary to prevent water or creosote  
from entering the chimney’s venting system.  
FOR YOUR OWN PROTECTION AND INSURANCE PURPOSES,  
HAVE YOUR CHIMNEY AND CONNECTOR PIPE INSTALLATION  
INSPECTED BY YOUR LOCAL BUILDING CODE AUTHORITY OR  
FIRE MARSHAL BEFORE STARTING A FIRE IN YOUR STOVE OR  
INSERT. NOTIFY YOUR INSURANCE COMPANY.  
From inside the fireplace firebox, attach any adaptors or flue offsets and  
slide the liner up as far as necessary for the bottom piece to clear the  
insert during installation.  
InCanada,Thisreplaceinsertmustbeinstalledwithacontinuouschimney  
liner of 6” diameter extending from the fireplace insert to the top of the  
chimney. The chimney liner must conform to the Class 3 requirements  
of CAN/ULC-S635, Standard for Lining Systems for Existing Masonry or  
Factory-BuiltChimneysandVents, orCAN/ULCS640, StandardforLining  
Systems for New Masonry Chimneys.  
INSTALLING THE INSERT  
Place the insert into the fireplace, making sure to center it side to side.  
Slide the insert in until the surround mounts are approximately 1/2” (13  
mm) from the face of the fireplace where the surround panels cover.  
Lower the chimney and make attachment to the insert. Level the fireplace  
insert by using a 3/4” socket and a long extension and adjusting the bolts  
on either side of the insert.  
Install the side surround panels with the screws supplied. Push the insert  
in until there is approximately a 1/4” (6 mm) gap between the back of the  
surround panels and the face of the fireplace. Before installing the top  
surround panel, make sure all connections are tight and that no part of  
the insert or chimney is touching the firebox or chimney in the fireplace.  
There must be a minimum of 1” (25mm) clearance between the fireplace  
insert and the zero clearance fireplace. Install the top surround panel.  
If additional support is necessary, factory punched holes in the front  
corners of the bottom air chamber will accept leveling legs. Carefully  
measure the distance from the hearth protection to the bottom of the  
fireplace insert. Use 3/8” diameter bolts that are 1/2” (13 mm) longer  
that the distance just measured. Thread a nut onto the the bolt approxi-  
mately 1” (25 mm). Lift the fireplace insert slightly and insert a bolt into  
each hole and then thread the nut up the bolt until the front is securely  
supported. Install another nut onto the bolt through the air space in the  
fireplace insert and tighten securely. If desired an insert front support,  
Cat. No. 71129, is available to fill the space between the insert and the  
hearth protection.  
Install the brick and baffle as per Page 6.

OPERATING HINTS  
STARTING AND MAINTAINING A FIRE  
1. Burn only dry, well-seasoned wood for maximum heat output. In  
some states it is illegal to burn wet wood or anything other than  
clean, dry wood products.  
Be sure to clean plated accessories with a household type  
cleaner and a very soft cloth to remove any fingerprints and  
residues prior to the first fire.  
2. Your fireplace insert is designed to operate with the door closed!  
Operate only with the door shut tightly at all times except when  
loading wood and possibly on start up to establish a draft. Never  
leave the unit unattended while the front door is slightly opened.  
3. DO NOT hit or move the baffle boards while loading wood. Occasion-  
ally check the baffle. Make sure the baffle blanket is always flush with  
the front of the baffle boards. Loading oversized logs may dislodge  
the baffle boards.  
4. CAUTION: THE DRAFT CONTROL MUST BE FULLY OPEN  
BEFOREOPENINGTHEDOORTOAVOIDPOSSIBLECOMBUS-  
TION FLASH!! (Ignition of hot volatile gases as the door is opened).  
5. Feeding excessive amounts of fuel to the fireplace insert should be  
avoided. It is important to supply it with sufficient draft and fuel to  
maintain a moderately hot fire. If, during overnight burns, heavy  
creosote deposits develop inside your fireplace insert and on the  
door, the draft is set too low - review your burning habits!  
1. NEVER USE FLAMMABLE LIQUIDS TO START OR REKINDLE  
A SOLID FUEL FIRE!!  
2. Fully open the primary draft control by pulling the 1” plastic knob  
out on the left side (lower front corner) until it stops (away from the  
fireplace insert). This control determines the amount of air entering  
the fireplace insert. Pushing it toward the fireplace insert reduces the  
burn rate in the firebox. For your convenience, the rod on this control  
ismarkedwithfourgroovestoassistyouinobtainingrepeatableburn  
rates.  
3. Place a small amount of crumpled paper in front of the firebox and  
cover it with a few pieces of kindling.  
4. Light the paper and allow sufficient time for the kindling to become  
fully engulfed in flames. You will now close the wood units front door.  
(Your wood units front door may or may not need to be left slightly  
openduringthisstartupprocess,thisdependsontheappliancemodel  
and the amount of draft present. Do not leave the unit unattended  
while the front door is slightly open) Once kindling is burning well,  
larger pieces of wood may be added, then the door should be fully  
closed if there was the need to keep it slightly open during start up.  
CAUTION  
Be careful not to abuse door assembly by striking or  
slamming it. If the door assembly or glass is broken or  
damaged, they must be replaced with factory original  
parts before heater can be safely operated. Use only  
components provided by the manufacturer as replace-  
ment parts.  
DO NOT LEAVE THE APPLIANCE UNATTENDED WHILE THE  
FRONT DOOR IS SLIGHTLY OPEN.  
CAUTION: Do Not alter the adjustment range of the draft  
control for increased firing for any reason.  
OK  
Operate only with fuel door and ash drawer closed. Maintain  
allsealsingoodcondition.Donotoperatewithbrokenglass.  
Do Not build the fire too close to the glass.  
Donotoperatetheappliancewiththedooropenorajarother  
than possibly during start up to create a draft (Do not leave  
the unit unattended while the front door is slightly open dur-  
ing start up). Operating the appliance with the door open  
other then in initial start up if needed will produce extreme  
temperatures within the appliance. Damage caused from  
over-firing is not covered under the manufacturers limited  
warranty.  
5. For best results, use smaller pieces of wood to get the insert tem-  
perature very high before loading larger wood for sustained burns.  
If necessary, crack the door to allow ignition of the fuel charge. Do  
not leave the unit unattended while the front door is slightly open.  
Now you can add larger pieces of wood and after several minutes of  
high burn, set the left control for the desired heat output. Check the  
exhaust in about 15 to 20 minutes. Large amounts of smoke indicate  
an improper burn setting (either too high or too low). Adjust and  
recheck in 5 to 10 minutes.

BLOWER OPERATION  
Blower Operation  
The blower can be operated manually or automatically (blower will

The rocker switch on the control panel allows you to select between  
manual operation or automatic operation as follows (see Figure 10):  
MANUAL OPERATION: Turn rocker switch to the manual position (up)  
and adjust rheostat knob to the desired speed. The blower will have to  
be manually turned “OFF” by rotating the rheostat knob counterclock-  
wise until it clicks.

AUTO OPERATION: Turn rocker switch to the “AUTO” position and  
the rheostat to the ON position (rotate rheostat knob clockwise until it  
clicks). When the insert warms up, the blower will automatically turn  
on (adjust rheostat knob to the desired speed setting). When the insert  
cools down, the blower will automatically turn off.  
WARNINGS  
The blower must be plugged directly into a properly  
groundedthree-prongreceptacle,120VAC,60Hz,single  
phase. Do not cut or remove the grounding prong from  
this plug. Do not route power cord under or in front of  
appliance.  
Rheostat Operation - The highest blower speed is obtained by turning  
the rheostat knob clockwise until it clicks “ON”, then rotate towards  
“HIGH” to increase blower speed. Rotate the knob clockwise for a  
lower speed. To turn off, continue to rotate the knob counterclockwise  
until it clicks “OFF.”  
Installation must be in accordance with National Elec-  
trical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 - latest edition. In Canada,  
the current CSA C22-1 Canadian Electrical Code - latest  
edition.  
Blower Operation Guidelines  
While in auto operation mode, the blower will turn off and on based on  
the temperature of the appliance. Auto operation ensures there is suffi-  
cient heat build-up to warm the air being moved by the blower before the  
blower is turned on. Likewise, when the appliance cools off, the blower  
is turned off to prevent circulating cool air. Depending on the size and

OPERATING TECHNIQUES AND HINTS  
ACHIEVING CLEAN, LONG BURNS  
Recent developments in wood-burning technology have made wood-  
burning a cleaner and more convenient way to heat your home. Overall  
efficiency in a wood-burning appliance is a combination of combustion  
efficiency and heat transfer efficiency. Whether heating your entire  
home, or just a room or two, your understanding of how to best operate  
your stove or insert will enhance its overall efficiency and performance.  
What this can mean to you is longer, cleaner burns, less wood use and  
more heat.  
To achieve long burn times, after having thoroughly preheated the  
fireplace insert, let the fireplace insert top cool down to 275 to 400  
degrees (on Elites, locate thermometer on the face of the insert just  
above the door). Now load the firebox and set the draft control. At this  
point, you may need to burn the fireplace insert with the draft open for  
a few minutes to ignite the wood. All Lennox Hearth Products stoves  
and fireplace inserts are EPA tested for emissions at low burn with the  
air control completely closed. Whether or not you should burn your  
fireplace insert with the air control completely closed will depend on the  
following factors.  
GETTING THE MOST OUT OF YOUR FIREPLACE INSERT  
• How you load your wood  
The following sections will outline techniques you can use to “get the  
most out of your fireplace insert.” Please read them carefully.  
• Your chimney type, height and draft  
• Your wood type and its moisture content  
• The temperature of the fireplace insert  
• Which model stove or insert you have  
MAXIMIZING YOUR FIREPLACE INSERT’S OVERALL  
EFFICIENCY  
Experimentwithdifferentloadingconfigurationstoachievelongerburns.  
Tryloadingthewoodfromsidetosideandnestingitintheashestoprevent  
airflow under and around the wood. Fresh wood should be loaded to the  
back of the firebox or to the sides. Hot coals or half burned wood should  
be brought towards the front of the firebox. The way you load your wood  
can seriously affect burn times. If the new load does not ignite within a  
few minutes, try crisscrossing the load to allow more airflow around the  
fire, or try a slightly hotter fireplace insert temperature.  
It is important to know that for high, combustion efficient, clean burns,  
you will need to have sufficient temperatures inside the firebox for  
thorough combustion. The best method for determining if you have suf-  
ficient temperatures is to watch the brick lining in your firebox. When you  
first light your fireplace insert, the bricks will turn a dark brown or black.  
After 20 to 30 minutes of a hot fire, most of the bricks should return to  
near their original light brown or yellow color. This means the bricks have  
reached a high enough temperature for your fireplace insert to achieve  
high combustion efficiency.  
Determining the lowest setting for efficient low burns. This will require  
some experimentation on your part. Try closing the air control all the way  
with the fireplace insert temperature at 325degrees to 350 degrees. If the  
flamesarecompletelyextinguished, opentheaircontrolhalfwayandthen  
slowlycloseituntilthereisonlyasmallamountofame. Itisimportantto  
check the fireplace insert about 20 minutes after setting the draft control  
as it takes this long for the fireplace insert temperature to stabilize. There  
should still be some small flames on or above the wood load.  
Second and just as important, is achieving a high level of heat transfer  
efficiency. Slowing the rate of flow through the stove or insert enhances  
heat transfer, thus allowing more time for heat to be transferred into your  
home. To do this, be sure to thoroughly preheat your fireplace insert and  
then reduce the amount of primary air by closing the draft control (lower  
left) to about 1/2 to 3/4 open. This will decrease the excess oxygen in  
your flue, which carries heat up your chimney, but should still be enough  
air to allow the fireplace insert to produce its maximum heat output.  
(More air may produce a lightly greater amount of heat, but will greatly  
increase wood consumption). When the area being heated reaches a  
comfortable temperature, slow the burn rate by closing the control to  
further improve heat transfer.  
Use 325 degrees as a starting point. You can try starting temperatures  
25degreeshigherorlowertoachievedesiredburntimes,start25degrees  
lower if the fireplace insert burns the wood too quickly or 25 degrees  
higher if there are no flames in the firebox for more than a few minutes  
after loading the wood. You may or may not need to burn the fireplace  
insert with the air control open for a few minutes prior to setting the draft  
for a low burn, this will depend on the factors mentioned above. Be sure  
not to smolder a fire overnight. Check your chimney for large amounts  
of smoke as this indicates very poor combustion.  
To get the most out of your fireplace insert, you will need to combine  
good combustion efficiency with good heat transfer practices. The fol-  
lowing are some tips on how to operate your fireplace insert to achieve  
the highest overall efficiency.  
It is important to realize that stove technology has changed. Stoves  
and fireplace inserts have changed a great deal in the last few years. This  
has led to substantial changes in the methods of operation in new stoves  
as compared to older stoves. In old stoves without full brick linings and  
ceramic insulation, the rule was “get the stove as hot as possible before  
setting the draft on low for overnight burns.” On newer, high technology  
Lennox Hearth Products stoves, this is not necessary. Although it is still  
important to have the stove hot enough to burn efficiently, it will require  
less preheating. Once you have determined your optimum operating  
temperatures for various burn rates, we believe you will find your fire-  
place insert an extremely convenient way to achieve your heating needs.  
1. Thoroughly preheat your fireplace insert before slowing the burn rate  
by closing the draft control.  
2. Measure the fireplace insert temperature at the hottest point on  
the fireplace insert top or face. Use this information to repeat burn  
rates.  
3. Once preheated, add wood (if needed) and partially close the draft  
control (lower left).  
4. Operateyourreplaceinsertasmuchaspossibleinthelowtomedium  
burn ranges.  
5. Do not lower the draft setting so low as to completely extinguish the  
flames in the firebox. Check for at least some small flames twenty  
minutes after setting the draft control.  
6. Do not continually operate your fireplace insert in the high (wide  
open) setting. This wastes wood by carrying a great deal of heat up  
the chimney and can damage your fireplace insert and chimney.  
7. Go outside and check your chimney. More than a very small amount  
of smoke indicates wasted heat, creosote build up and pollution.  
Do not reload the fireplace insert for long burns when the stainless  
secondary tubes or baffles are glowing red, or when the fireplace  
insert is uncomfortably hot to load. This indicates the fireplace insert  
is too hot to load for a long burn. Also, do not load wood for a long burn  
on a deep bed of hot coals. Try stirring the coals a few minutes before  
loading the fireplace insert for a low burn to allow some of the unburned  
coals time to burn.

MAINTENANCE  
CAUTION  
DOOR HINGES: If door hinges need lubricating, use an anti-seize com-  
pound (never use oil) available from your Lennox Hearth Products dealer.  
Cleaning Glass: Ensure appliance is cold prior  
to cleaning glass. A commercial glass cleaner  
designed for stoves is recommended. Do not use  
abrasivecleaners.Donotcleanwithanymaterials,  
which may scratch or otherwise damage the glass.  
Scratches on the glass can develop into cracks or  
break. Inspect the glass regularly. If you detect a  
crack, extinguish the fire and contact your dealer  
for a replacement.  
DOOR LATCH: If your door latch fails to latch tightly and the gasket is  
in good condition, place a length of pipe (cheater bar) over the inside  
portion of the door handle and bend slightly toward the door until the  
proper adjustment is obtained. If the door handle does not close easily,  
apply high temperature anti-seize to the striker.  
DOOR GASKET: Periodically check gasket to make sure it is not over-  
compressed.Ifcompressed,replacewithaspecialwovendoorrope.(Don’t  
trysubstitutingrope,onlyusespecialLennoxHearthProductsdoorrope).  
PLATED ACCESSORIES: Clean only with a household type glass cleaner  
and a very soft cotton cloth. Other products may damage plated finish,  
paint and gaskets.  
GLASS REPLACEMENT INSTRUCTIONS  
BAFFLE BLANKET: Your baffle blanket should be inspected during every  
chimney cleaning. If the blanket is compressed or heavily stained, it  
should be replaced. Heavy creosote stains or matting is an indication of  
improper use and your burning habits should be reviewed.  
Step 1. Remove Door Assembly - Open door to remove E clip from the upper  
hinge pin. Remove upper hinge pin by pulling up while holding the op-  
posite side of the door. Lift door out of the lower hinge pin and place  
face down on a soft surface.  
GLASS CLEANING: Only clean glass with products specifically made to  
use on wood stoves. Other products could damage gaskets and paint.  
Never scrape glass with a razor blade. This can pit the glass and make it  
impossible to clean in the future.  
Step 2. Remove Door Back Screws (6 ea.) - Using a 5/32” allen wrench remove  
the 6 retainer screws from the faceplate. To locate screws, peel back the  
door gasket as necessary.  
Step 3. Disassemble Door Assembly - Flip door assembly over to be face up.  
Separate faceplate from door back by pulling up on faceplate.  
Step 4. Remove Glass - Carefully remove broken glass one piece at a time  
(protective gloves are recommended)  
Step 5. Install New Glass Assembly - Install the new glass with gasket in recess  
on door back (use only factory supplied 5mm ceramic glass. Do not  
substitute).  
Step 6. Reinstall Faceplate and Screws - Reinstall faceplate onto door back  
and while holding the door assembly together flip the assembly back  
onto it’s face. Carefully reinstall the screws. Be very careful not to  
overtighten the screws (this could result in glass breakage when the  
stove or fireplace insert is hot) and it is highly recommended to use anti  
seize on the screws.  
WINDOW GASKET: The window gasket can be checked by running the  
flame of a match near the gasket and around the door. If the flame is  
drawn in around the window, the gasket should be replaced.  
DOOR HANDLE: Door handle may become tight as you use the fireplace  
insert. Freethehandle up byusingdrygraphite suppliedwiththereplace  
insert. The directions are included with the graphite.  
WARNINGS  
Inspectandcleanchimneyandconnectorfrequently.  
Under certain conditions of use, creosote buildup  
may occur rapidly. See Installing the Insert on Page  
12 for instructions on removing the appliance for  
cleaning (reverse order of instructions).  
Step 7. Reinstall Door - Set door assembly back into the lower hinge mount  
while holding the handle side of the door up. Place the upper hinge  
pin back in the mount and door assembly. Reinstall the E clip that was  
removed.

GLASS CLEANING GUIDELINES  
WARNING: DO NOT CLEAN GLASS WHEN APPLIANCE IS HOT!  
Screws and  
Washers  
Glass on any wood stove or fireplace insert will not stay perfectly clean.  
Here are some guidelines for cleaning and caring for the glass:  
Ensure the stove or fireplace insert is cold prior to cleaning glass.  
This appliance is designed to provide a flow of air over the inside of  
the glass, where along with high heat helps inhibit build-up on the  
glass. When build-up occurs, a commercial glass cleaner designed  
for stoves is recommended. Regular household glass cleaners will  
not clean creosote.  
Door Back  
Do not use abrasives such as steel pads, steel wool or oven cleaner  
as they will scratch the glass. Never scrape glass with a razor blade  
as this may pit the glass and make it impossible to clean in the future.  
Do not use chemical glass cleaners as they may damage the gaskets  
or painted surfaces.  
Handle Rod  
Glass  
Glass Gasket  
TIPS FOR KEEPING THE GLASS CLEAN  
Burn only dry seasoned cord wood. Wet wood = Dirty glass.  
A short, hot fire (15 - 20 minutes) may help to clean off some of the  
normal buildup. Lower burns = more build-up. Higher burns = less  
build-up.  
Keep freshly loaded wood away from the glass.  
After reloading, allow all the wood to catch flame before dampering  
down the stove or fireplace insert.

TROUBLESHOOTING  
Problem  
Solution  
POOR DRAFT:  
Extend chimney in length or have the chimney realigned to the proper size flue. Oversized chimneys normally have poor  
drafts. Remember, the fireplace inserts’ draft depend solely on the natural draft of the chimney (See Draft Requirements  
on Page 4). If your fireplace insert is not drafting properly, your chimney is the problem. All stoves and inserts are  
thoroughly tested to ensure proper draft with the correct size chimney flue.  
EXCESSIVE DRAFT:  
DIRTY GLASS:  
With better chimneys being more common, excessive draft can be an issue. Alleviate excessive draft by slowing the  
burn rate of the fireplace insert once it has reached proper operating temperature (See Maximizing Your Fireplace  
inserts Overall Efficiency on Page 15).  
1) Burn smaller, hotter fires and check to make sure you are not setting the draft down too far with the draft control.  
2) Make sure your wood is well-seasoned and dry (not open to rain - see Creosote and Fuel sections on Page 5).  
3) See Poor Draft section (above) and Clean Glass (above).  
SMOKES WHEN  
DOOR IS OPEN:  
1) If smoke is entering the room, check to make sure your baffle boards are properly installed  
and that the baffle blanket is pushed back flush with the front of the baffle boards.  
2) Check the chimney for blockage due to creosote (See Creosote section on Page 5).  
3) Check draft (See POOR DRAFT section above).  
WOOD BURNS  
TOO FAST:  
1) The draft control must be closed further.  
2) Add fuel at lower firebox temperatures.  
3) Load wood side to side and reduce the flow of air under wood.  
4) The door seal may need replacing, check for leakage.  
5) See “Excessive Draft.”  
POOR HEAT  
OUTPUT:  
1) Check your wood. Wet, moist, unseasoned wood will not produce heat.  
2) Your fireplace insert needs to be seasoned (moisture removed from the steel and brick). Continue to burn a fire. It  
normally takes from one to three weeks of burning to season your fireplace insert (See Burn-In Period on Page 5).  
3) See Excessive Draft section above.  
PAINT GIVES OFF  
ODOR (smoke):  
Paint is tempering-in. Burn only moderately hot for the first few days until paint is fully cured.  
Then burn a very hot fire to cure any paint that may not easily cure. Open windows or door to ventilate (See Burn-In  
Period on Page 5).  
17  
 
DO’S AND DON’T  
DO NOT: Install or operate this fireplace insert before reading this manual.  
DO NOT: Close the draft beyond the point at which the flames are completely extinguished.  
DO NOT: Open the fireplace insert door without fully opening the draft first.  
DO NOT: Burn driftwood or wood that has been in salt water. This includes some mill ends and scrap lumber that has been floated in salt water on  
the way to the mill. (This will void your warranty).  
DO NOT: Handle the plated faceplate unnecessarily. Use the door handle only.  
DO NOT: Force oversized logs into the firebox as this may dislodge the baffle assembly.  
DO NOT: Close the door tightly during Burn-In period.  
DO:  
Be sure to clean any fingerprints from optional accessories that have plated surfaces before burning the appliance. Clean the plated surfaces  
only with household type glass cleaner and a very soft cloth.  
DO:  
Consult local building department if other than recommended clearances are desired.  
DO:  
Read instructions for the baffle boards and baffle blanket occasionally to ensure you have not bumped or moved them out of place when  
loading wood.  
DO:  
DO:  
DO:  
DO:  
Check the chimney and baffle monthly to make sure they are clean.  
Burn seasoned, dry wood only! (RAIN = WET WOOD)  
Open the door frequently during Burn-In period to keep gasket from adhering to the curing paint.  
Enjoy the warm feeling of your new Lennox Hearth Products appliance.
