2.4 The masonry fireplace's draft control system
If the fireplace's draft control system gets in the way of the installation of the insert, you must either block it in
the open position or remove it entirely. If you remove draft control system from the masonry hearth, you will
need to install the metal plate (27009), supplied with the owner’s manual kit, indicating that the masonry hearth
has been modified. It must be secured inside the masonry hearth, in a visible place and easy to locate.
2.5 Compliance of a combustible top shelf
To ensure compliance of an existing top shelf or to install any combustible shelf, refer to table below and
Figure 2.5 for a safe installation or to perform changes if necessary. For example, a shelf with a 6’’ depth
(152 mm) must be installed at least 22" (559 mm) above the top of the insert (see Figure 2.5). Different shelf
dimensions are listed in the following table in order to facilitate installation. However, no combustible shelf
can be installed at less than 22" (559 mm) above the top of the insert. If the depth of the shelf is not listed in
the table, add 16" (406 mm) to the depth of your shelf to obtain the safe positioning of your shelf. For
example, for a 9" (229 mm) shelf, the safe positioning would be 25" (635 mm) above the top of the insert
(16" (406 mm) + 9" (229 mm)).
