A. Design and Installation Considerations

CAUTION

Check building codes prior to installation.

• Installation MUST comply with local, regional, state and national codes and regulations.

• Consult insurance carrier, local building inspector, fire officials or authorities having jurisdiction about restrictions, installation inspection, and permits.

B. Typical Fireplace System

The Outdoor Lifestyle fireplace system consists of the following:

• Fireplace/integral grate/dual cooling air system

• Refractory

• Chimney termination cap

• Chimney system (SL1100 series pipe is NOT approved for Canada)

• Hearth extension

Optional components include:

• Glass doors

• Weather cover

• SLA10 11-10 in./279-254 mm Adapter (required in

Canada)

When planning a fireplace installation, it is necessary to determine the following information before installing:

• Where the fireplace is to be installed. See Sections

3 and 4.

• The vent system configuration to be used. See Sections

5 and 6.

• Framing and finishing details. See Sections 3, 6 and 8.

• Whether optional accessories are desired. See

Section 12.

Draft is the pressure difference needed to vent fireplaces successfully. Considerations for successful draft include:

• Location of fireplace and chimney

Termination Cap

Moisture Resistance:

This outdoor fireplace will shed moderate amounts of water, but is not waterproof. Water and condensing water vapor may enter the chase under certain conditions.

The fireplace will not perform as an exterior wall. Moisture penetration must be considered for construction that places the fireplace in structure walls or on moisture sensitive surfaces.

When installed on exterior walls: Hearth & Home Technologies recommends that the fireplace chase be constructed outside the structure’s weather envelope. Where the platform meets the wall, use a flashing detail similar to that required for attached decks. Chase platforms, including hearths should slope away from the structure at 1/8 in. to

1/4 in. per foot. The fireplace can be shimmed level.

When installed on surfaces where water may collect or

cause damage: Hearth & Home Technologies recommends that a drainage pan be placed under the unit. This can be constructed of metal, adhesive polymer membrane (such as ice and water shield) or other suitable materials. A means of drainage out of the pan such as tubes or weep holes should be provided. A slope of 1/8 in. to 1/4 in. per foot towards the drain port is suggested. The fireplace can be shimmed level.

Hearths should slope away from the front of the fireplace and chase at 1/8 in. to 1/4 in. per foot. Spark strips must be on top of any combustible hearth materials used for moisture management.

A. Selecting Fireplace Location

This outdoor fireplace will shed moderate amounts of water, but is not waterproof. Water and condensing water vapor may enter the chase under certain conditions.

The fireplace will not perform as an exterior wall. Moisture penetration must be considered for construction that places the fireplace against structure walls or on moisture sensitive surfaces.

• Exterior Walls (see Figure 3.1)

Hearth & Home Technologies recommends that the fireplace chase be constructed outside the structure’s weather envelope. Where the platform meets the wall, use a flashing detail similar to that required for attached decks.

Chase platforms, including hearths, should slope away from the structure at 1/8 in to 1/4 in. per foot. The fireplace can be shimmed level. Build the outside enclosure out of standard building materials, being careful to maintain the minimum air clearances specified in these installation instructions.

• Freestanding Installations (see Figure 3.2)

When installing this fireplace as a freestanding fireplace on your porch, patio or in your yard, it must be enclosed to prevent impact damage to the fireplace. The exterior of the enclosure may be finished in a textured plywood, a wood clapboard siding, brick, or a cultured stone. Vinyl siding is not recommended for use on the front of the fireplace due to the heat the fireplace produces. This can cause the vinyl siding to deteriorate.

• When Installed on Surfaces Where Water May Collect or Cause Damage:

Hearth & Home Technologies recommends that a drainage pan be placed under the unit. This can be constructed of metal, adhesive polymer membrane (such as ice and water shield) or other suitable materials. A means of drainage out of the pan such as tubes or weep holes should be provided. A slope of 1/8 in. to 1/4 in. per foot towards the drain port is suggested. The fireplace can be shimmed level.

Hearths should slope away from the front of the fireplace and chase at 1/8 in. to 1/4 in. per foot. Spark strips must be used on top of any combustible hearth materials used for moisture management.


Note: If this surface is inside the building’s warm air envelope...

...then this surface must be an exterior wall system.

B. Using Offsets/Returns

To bypass any overhead obstructions, the chimney may be offset using an offset/return.

An offset and return may be attached together or a chimney section(s) may be used between an offset and return.

Perform the following steps to determine the correct chimney component combination for your particular installation:

WARNING

Fire Risk

• Draft will be restricted if offsets/returns greater than 30° are used.

• Measure how far the chimney needs to be shifted to enable it to avoid the overhead obstacle. See Figure 5.1. Use dimension “A” to determine chimney section required to achieve the needed shift.

• After determining the offset dimension, refer to Table 5.2 and find the “A” dimension closest to but not less than the distance of shift needed for your installation.

• The “B” dimension that coincides with the “A” dimension represents the required vertical clearance that is needed to complete the offset and return.

• Read across the chart and find the number of chimney sections required and the model number of those particular chimney parts.

• Whenever the chimney penetrates a floor/ceiling, a ceiling firestop must be installed.

• The effective height of the fireplace assembly is measured from the base of the fireplace to the top of the starter collar.

OVERLAP

Figure 5.1 Chimney Offset/Return

Example: Your “A” dimension from Figure 5.3 is

14 1/2 in. (368 mm). Using Table 5.2 the dimension closest to, but not less than 14 1/2 in. (368 mm) is

15 3/4 in. (400 mm) using a 30° offset/return. It is then determined from the table that you would need

36 5/8 in. (930 mm) (Dimension “B”) between the offset and return. The chimney components that best fit your application are two SL1112s or SL412s.


C. Assemble the Chimney Sections

Attach either a straight chimney section or an offset to the top of the fireplace (depending on your installation requirement). Chimney sections are locked together by pushing downward until the top section meets the stop bead on the lower section.

The inner flue is placed to the inside of the flue section below it. The outer casing is placed outside the outer casing of the chimney section below it. See Figure 5.2.

Note: The ceiling firestop MUST be nailed to the bottom of the ceiling joists EXCEPT when the space above is uninsulated and the attic insulation shield is not being used

(see Figure 5.5). When the attic insulation shield is used the ceiling firestop may be above or below the joist of an insulated ceiling.

Note: Inner flue and outer liner sections cannot be disassembled once locked together. Plan ahead to ensure the proper installation height is achieved with the selected chimney components.

Note:

Use same dimensional lumber for framing ceiling firestop and joists.

WARNING

Fire Risk

Do NOT install substitute or damaged chimney components.

D. Install the Ceiling Firestops

Where the chimney system is installed in a chase on the exterior side of the building envelope or as a free standing installation, firestops are not required. Check building codes prior to installation.

Where the chimney system is on the interior side of the building envelope, follow the ceiling firestop instructions below:

• Mark and cut an opening in the ceiling for the ceiling firestop being used. See Figure 5.3.

• Frame the opening with the same size lumber used in the ceiling joists.

• Install the ceiling firestop.

16

Note: You must provide support for the pipe during construction and check to be sure inadvertent loading has not dislodged the chimney section from the fireplace or at any chimney joint.

CAUTION

• Ceiling firestops must be used where chimney pipe penetrates ceiling/floor.

Ceiling firestop slows spread of fire and reduces cold air infiltration.

Outdoor Lifestyles by Hearth & Home Technologies • Montana US-CAN • 4039-156 Rev X • 05/11/15

E. Install Attic Insulation Shield

Warning! risk of Fire! You MUST install an attic insulation shield when there is any possibility of insulation or other combustible material coming into contact with the chimney.

• Do noT pack insulation between the chimney and the attic insulation shield.

• Failure to keep insulation and other materials away from chimney pipe could cause fire.

• Do noT offset chimney inside insulation shield.

Installation of a ceiling firestop is required:

• Refer to Figures 5.3, 5.5, 5.6.

• Roll the shield (around the chimney if already installed).

The three holes on each side will match up (large holes on top).

• Insert three screws into the matching holes to form a tube.

• Bend the tabs on the bottom of the tube inward to 90° to maintain chimney air space.

• Rest the insulation shield on the ceiling firestop below.

• Bend the tabs at the top of the shield inward to 90° to maintain the 2 in. (51 mm) air space from the chimney.

F. Double-check the Chimney Assembly

Continue assembling the chimney sections up through the ceiling firestops as needed. While doing so, be aware of the height and unsupported chimney length limitations given under Section 5.A. Chimney Requirements.

Check each section by pulling up slightly from the top to ensure proper engagement before installing the succeeding sections. If they have been connected correctly, they will not disengage when tested.

Operating Instructions

WARNING

Fire Risk

• Do not operate fireplace before reading and understanding operating instructions.

Failure to operate fireplace properly may cause fire.

A. General Information

Fireplaces, as well as other woodburning appliances, have been used safely for many years. It has been our experience that most problems are caused by improper installation and operation of the fireplace. Make certain that installation and operation of the fireplace system is in accordance with these instructions.

It is extremely important that the fire be supervised whenever the fireplace is in use. It is also recommended that an annual inspection be performed on the fireplace system to determine if the flue system needs to be cleaned, or as in the case of any appliance, if minor repairs are required to maintain the system in top operating condition.

WARNING

HOT SURFACES!

Glass and other surfaces are hot during operation and cool down.

Hot glass will cause burns.

• Do not touch glass until it is cooled

• NEVER allow children to touch glass

• Keep children away

• CAREFULLY SUPERVISE children in same room as appliance.

• Alert children and adults to hazards of high temperatures.

High temperatures may ignite clothing or other flammable materials.

• Keep clothing, furniture, draperies and other combustibles away.

WARNING

Fire Risk


• Do not install unvented gas logs.

Your fireplace performance depends on the quality of the firewood you use. All seasoned wood, regardless of species, contains about 8,000 BTU’s per pound, and hardwoods have a greater density than soft woods. A piece of hardwood will contain about 60% more BTU’s than an equal size piece of soft wood. Firewood is commonly sold by the cord (128 cu. ft.). A cord of seasoned oak

(hardwood) would contain about 60% more potential energy than a cord of seasoned pine (soft wood).

Examples of soft wood trees are Douglas fir, pine, spruce, and cedar, poplar, aspen and alder. Soft woods require less time to dry, burn faster and are easier to ignite than hardwoods.

Examples of hardwood trees are oak, maple, apple, and birch. Hardwoods require more time to season, burn slower and are usually harder to ignite than soft woods.

The best wood fuel is a combination of soft wood and hardwood. Start the fire with soft wood; the fire will give off quick heat to bring the fireplace up to operating temperature, and then the hardwood can be added for slow, even heat and longer burn time.

Moisture

Regardless of which species of wood you burn, the single most important factor that effects the way your fireplace operates is the amount of moisture in the wood. The majority of the problems fireplace owners experience are caused by trying to burn wet, unseasoned wood.

Freshly cut wood can be as much water as it is wood, having a moisture content of around 50%. Imagine a wooden bucket that weighs about eight pounds. Fill it with a gallon of water, put it in the fireplace and try to burn it. This sounds ridiculous but that is exactly what you are doing if you burn unseasoned wood.

Seasoning

Seasoned firewood is nothing more than wood that is cut to size, split and air dried to a moisture content of around 20%. The time it takes to season wood varies from around nine months for soft woods to as long as eighteen months for hardwoods. The key to seasoning wood is to be sure it has been split, exposing the wet interior and increasing the surface area of each piece. A tree that was cut down a year ago and not split is likely to have almost as high a moisture content now as it did when it was cut.

The following guideline will ensure properly seasoned wood:

• Stack the wood to allow air to circulate freely around and through the woodpile.

• Elevate the woodpile off the ground to allow air circulation underneath.

• The smaller the pieces, the faster the drying process.

Any piece over 6 in. (152 mm) in diameter should be split.

• Cover the top of the woodpile for protection from rain and snow. Avoid covering the sides and ends completely. Doing so may trap moisture from the ground and impede air circulation.

The problems with burning wet, unseasoned wood are twofold: First, you will receive less heat output from wet wood because it requires energy in the form of heat to evaporate the water trapped inside. This is wasted energy that should be used for heating your home. Secondly, this moisture evaporates in the form of steam which has a cooling effect in your fireplace and chimney system.

When combined with tar and other organic vapors from burning wood it will form creosote which condenses in the relatively cool fireplace and chimney.

WARNING

Fire Risk

• Do NOT burn wet or green wood.

• Store wood in dry location.

• Stack wood so both ends are exposed to air.

Wet, unseasoned wood can cause accumulation of creosote.

WARNING

Fire Risk

Do NOT store wood:

• Closer than required clearances to combustibles to fireplace.

• Within space required for loading or ash removal.


H. Starting a Fire

Check the flue damper to be certain it is in the full open position. Place crumpled or twisted paper under the fireplace grate. Loosely arrange kindling or small pieces of wood to form a layer above the paper.

The fires must be built on the fireplace grate, without danger of the burning fuel falling out of the fireplace opening.

Light the paper and add small pieces of wood until a hot bed of embers has been established.

After establishing the fire bed, and the small firewood is burning briskly, add a minimum of three average sized pieces of split firewood, place the wood in such a manner to allow combustion air and flames between them.

Note: When first lighting your fireplace, it may be necessary to pre-warm the flue to establish a draft. This is done by holding a rolled up piece of burning newspaper under the flue damper for a few moments. This will help reduce smoke spillage during start-up.

Note: The first three or four fires should be of moderate size to allow the oils and binders to be burned from the fireplace and the refractory and paint to cure. You may notice an industrial odor the first few fires. This is considered normal.

CAUTION

Odors and vapors released during initial operation.

• Curing of high temperature paint.

• Open windows for air circulation.

Odors may be irritating to sensitive individuals.

WARNING

Fire Risk

Keep combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable vapors and liquids clear of fireplace.

• Do NOT store flammable materials close to the fireplace.

• Do NOT use gasoline, lantern fuel, kerosene, charcoal lighter fluid or similar liquids to start or “freshen up” a fire in this fireplace.

• Keep all such liquids well away from the fireplace while it is in use.

Combustible materials may ignite.

CAUTION

With outdoor applications, wind may affect the flame pattern and performance of the fireplace. Smoke spillage and sporadic flame extending beyond the front of the fireplace may be possible when doors are open.

Troubleshooting

Diagnostics and Problem Solving

I can’t get a good fire going. What am I doing wrong?

Diagnostic Questions

Is the damper open?

Possible Causes of Condition

• No draft

Is there enough paper/starter?

• Insufficient heat to ignite kindling

Is there enough kindling?

Is the kindling dry?

• Insufficient heat to ignite fuel

Is there enough or too much wood? Is it too large? Is it dry enough?

Are there adequate air spaces between fuel pieces?

Is the chimney pre-warmed?

• Insufficient heat to establish draft

• Insufficient air passage

• Insufficient surface area

• Ignition temperature high due to moisture

• Insufficient combustion air and exposed surface area

• Exposed, cold chimney down drafting

Solutions

Open damper.

Use more paper/starter.

Use more dry kindling.

Use small split wood that is well seasoned (split, covered on top at least 6 months, preferably a year).

Arrange kindling and wood for air movement.

Does the kindling, wood not ignite?

• Condition, amount, arrangement of kindling and fuel

Does the kindling ignite, but the fuel doesn’t?

• Amount of kindling

• Condition of fuel

Does the fuel ignite, but not burn well?

• Condition of fuel

• Draft problem

Use lighted rolled newspaper at throat or flue opening to start upward movement.

Use more, drier, well-spaced kindling and fuel.

Use more kindling; use smaller, dry wood.

Use well-seasoned wood and sufficient amount; turn exhaust fans off; open window slightly. Perform Simplified

House Pressure Test.

I don’t get enough/any heat from the fireplace. What can I do about it?

Diagnostic Questions Possible Causes of Condition

How much wood is used for fire? • Insufficient fuel

Solutions

Make larger fires.

How well seasoned is the wood? • Condition of fuel

How much heat output do you expect?

• Unrealistic expectations

Burn seasoned wood: covered on top, split and stacked for

9 months to 2 years.

Explanation of decorative nature of fireplace; suggestion of approved fireplace insert.

The fireplace burns the wood too fast. What can I do?

Diagnostic Questions Possible Causes of Condition

Outdoor Lifestyles by Hearth & Home Technologies™

Warranty

Hearth & Home Technologies (“HHT”) extends the following warranty for all Outdoor Lifestyles by HHT™ brand products (“Products”) that are purchased from an HHT authorized dealer.

WARRANTY COVERAGE:

HHT warrants to the original owner of the Product at the site of installation, and to any transferee taking ownership of the Product at the site of installation within one year following the date of original purchase, that the Product will be free from defects in materials and workmanship at the time of manufacture. After installation, if covered components manufactured by HHT are found to be defective in materials or workmanship during the applicable warranty period, HHT will, at its option, repair or replace the covered components. This warranty is subject to conditions, exclusions and limitations as described below.

WARRANTY PERIOD:

The warranty period runs for one year, beginning on the earlier of: (i) the date of invoice for the Product;

(ii) in the case of new home construction, the date of first occupancy of the residence or six months after the date of sale of the Product by an HHT authorized dealer, whichever occurs first; or (iii) the date 24 months following the date of Product shipment from HHT, regardless of the invoice or occupancy date.

WARRANTY CONDITIONS:

• This warranty only covers Products that are purchased through an HHT authorized dealer or distributor. A list of HHT authorized dealers is available on the HHT branded websites.

• This warranty is only valid while the Product remains at the site of original installation.

• Contact your installing dealer for warranty service. If the installing dealer is unable to provide necessary parts, contact the nearest HHT authorized dealer or supplier. Additional service fees may apply if you are seeking warranty service from a dealer other than the dealer from whom you originally purchased the Product.

• Check with your dealer in advance for any costs to you when arranging a warranty call. Travel and shipping charges for parts are not covered by this warranty.

WARRANTY EXCLUSIONS:

This warranty does not cover the following:

• Changes in surface finishes as a result of normal use. As a heating appliance, some changes in color of interior and exterior surface finishes may occur; this is not a flaw and not covered under warranty.

• Damage to printed, plated, or enameled surfaces caused by fingerprints, accidents, misuse, scratches, melted items, or other external sources and residues left on surfaces from the use of abrasive cleaners or polishes.

• Repair or replacement of parts that are subject to normal wear and tear during the warranty period. These parts include: paint, firebricks, grates, flame guides and the discoloration of glass.

• Minor expansion, contraction, or movement of certain parts causing noise. These conditions are normal and complaints related to this noise are not covered by this warranty.

Warranty (continued)

• Damages resulting from: (1) failure to install, operate, or maintain the Product in accordance with the installation instructions, operating instructions, and listing agent identification label furnished with the Product; (2) failure to install the Product in accordance with local building codes; (3) shipping or improper handling; (4) improper operation, abuse, misuse, continued operation with damaged, corroded or failed components, accident, or incorrectly performed repairs; (5) inadequate ventilation, negative pressure or environmental conditions, including, without limitation: hail, snow, ice, fallen branches, flooding, water damage and fading of color; (6) use of fuels other than those specified in the operating instructions; (7) installation or use of components not supplied with the Product or any other components not expressly authorized and approved by

HHT; (8) modification of the Product not expressly authorized and approved by HHT in writing; and/or (9) interruptions or fluctuations of electrical power supply to the Product.

• Non-HHT venting components, hearth components or other accessories used in conjunction with the Product.

• Any part of a pre-existing fireplace system in which an insert or a decorative gas appliance is installed.

• The Product’s capability to heat the desired space. Information is provided to assist the consumer and the dealer in selecting the proper appliance for the application. Consideration must be given to the Product’s location and configuration and environmental conditions.

This warranty is void if:

• The Product has been over-fired or operated in atmospheres contaminated by chlorine, fluorine, or other damaging chemicals. Over-firing can be identified by, but not limited to, warped plates or tubes, rust colored cast iron, bubbling, cracking and discoloration of steel or enamel finishes and cracking or spalling of refractory or cementitious materials.

• The Product is subjected to prolonged periods of dampness, condensation, ice or snow.

• There is any damage to the Product or other components due to water or weather damage which is the result of, but not limited to, improper chimney or venting installation.

LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY:

Repair or replacement in accordance with the provisions of this warranty will be the owner’s exclusive remedy for and will constitute HHT’s sole obligation under this warranty, under any other warranty

(express or implied), or in contract, tort or otherwise; provided, however, that if HHT is unable to provide repair or replacement in an expedient and cost effective manner, HHT may discharge all such obligations by refunding the purchase price of the Product. No employee, agent, dealer, or other person is authorized to give any warranty on behalf of HHT. TO THE EXTENT ALLOWED BY LAW, HHT MAKES NO OTHER

WARRANTY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR

FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. HHT WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL

OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF DEFECTS IN OR USE OF THE PRODUCTS. Some states do not allow exclusions or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so these limitations may not apply to you. This warranty gives you specific rights; you also may have other rights, which vary from state to state. The duration of any implied warranty is limited to the duration of the warranty period specified herein.
