OPERATING THE FIREPLACE

Fuel

USE SOLID NATURAL WOOD FUEL ONLY. The

Montecito fireplace is designed to work best when fueled with dry seasoned natural wood only. Hardwoods are preferred to softwoods since the energy content of wood is relative to its density. Hardwoods will result in a longer burning fire and less frequent refueling. A moisture content of 15% to 20% (seasoned) is recommended. Wood that has been cut and split and let to dry under a cover for a period of one year will usually meet that criteria. The required drying time will vary depending on the climate. Wood that is packed tight together will take longer to dry. Seasoned wood is darker in color than wet wood and will have visible cracks in the grain on the ends. Excessively wet wood will be difficult to burn and will result in lower efficiency, increased creosoting and deposits on the glass and in the chimney. Excessively dry wood will burn well but will also have higher emissions and shorter burning time.

Do not burn scrap or garbage, treated wood or wood such as driftwood from the ocean which has been exposed to salt or other chemicals.

Salt or chemicals can corrode the firebox and chimney. Do not burn large amounts of paper, cardboard, Christmas tree branches or building construction materials. Intense firing with these materials may overheat the fireplace, causing damage to the unit, a fire or even possibly igniting a chimney fire if the chimney is creosoted.

Burning unapproved fuel, resulting in excessive pollutants being emitted, may be prohibited and subject to a fine or other penalty by the authority having jurisdiction in your area.

Processed firelogs can be used. Although, do not poke or stir the logs while they are burning.

Use only firelogs that have been evaluated for the application of fireplace and refer to firelog warnings and caution markings on packaging prior to use.

First Fires

Before using the fireplace make sure to remove the plastic wrapping and EPA label on plated door. Remove any glue residue left by the label using mild soap.

The first five or six fires should be small fires of short duration (about 30 to 60 minutes). This will help cure the refractory bricks. During the first few fires of this appliance there may be some odor and smoke due to the curing of the paint, dust accumulation and burning off of lubricants used in the manufacturing process.

It may set off a smoke alarm located in the same room. For this reason the room should be well ventilated for the first few fires.

WARNING

Be careful adding wood fuel to the fire or handling fireplace tools such as shovels, tongs or pokers.

WARNING

The bottom refractory can be cracked by excessive abuse such as tossing heavy logs onto the grate or gouging with fireplace tools. Exercise caution when adding wood to your fireplace.

Building a Fire

(starting and maintaining a fire)

To start a fire, place several crumpled up balls of newspaper in the firebox. Place small dry pieces of kindling on top of the paper, criss-crossing the kindling so that there are air spaces in between.

Keep the fuel far back enough so that air can get underneath. Open the air controls fully and light the newspaper. Once the newspaper and the kindling is well ignited, close the door.

Once the kindling fire is well established, cord wood can be added (see Primary Air Combus-

tion Control section for proper operation of the air controls).

The unit will burn best with 2-3 pieces of cord wood spaced 1 to 2 inches apart and allowing air to get under the fuel. Criss-crossing or arranging the fuel so that air can get underneath, will help the fire to get started easily. The unit should be operated with the air control fully open long enough to get the cord wood well ignited.

COMBUSTION CONTROLS

Primary Air and Air Boost Controls

There is no flue damper in the Montecito™ wood burning fireplace. As is common with air tight stoves, the combustion air control sets the flow of air entering the firebox. This allows for a more precise control of the fire. The combustion air control is located below the door on

Figure 1

Combustion Air Register

the left side. The main source of air (primary air) entering the firebox can be diminished by moving the air combustion control from left to right. The primary air is fully opened when the air control is completely moved to the left.

The air control device can also be used to add an extra boost of air especially during fire start up and reloading of the unit.

Pulling the air combustion control will induce an air boost at the base of the fire allowing an easier fire start up. When the fire is well established, the control can be pushed in to shut down the air boost allowing for a longer burn time. The combustion air control should be in the closed position (primary air and air boost) when the fireplace is not in use. This will minimize air leakage up the chimney. The combustion air control should be opened before opening the door to minimize the possibility of back draft coming into the room.

Accelerated Combustion

The maximum heat output for the Montecito fireplace is achieved by burning with the door closed and the combustion air opened and pulled out. By this method, the Montecito fireplace can produce up to 55,000 BTU of heat per hour. However, it will be necessary to reload with wood every one or two hours.

This is the least efficient method of burning the

Montecito fireplace.

Use caution when firing with the combustion air control wide open. Only burn cord wood in this manner. Small dry pieces of softwood and construction scraps will burn very intensely using this method and may damage the firebox.

Medium Combustion

This is the recommended mode of operating the Montecito fireplace and should be the one normally used since it will deposit the least amount of creosote on the glass and in the chimney. The combustion air control must be

3/4 closed and pushed in to close the air boost.

The precise setting will depend on many factors, including chimney length and the moisture content of the wood.

Open

Push to Close

Air Boost

Close

Pull to Open

Air Boost

For instance, a long chimney will necessitate closing the damper more. To obtain the proper combustion, close the damper completely, then open it about 1/4” to 1/2”. Three medium size pieces of wood should be burning on a bed of hot coals. The heat output will be approximately

30,000 BTU per hour and the loading time will be about every 3-4 hours. Softwoods may be burned using this method but the time will be substantially reduced.

Slow Combustion

When the air combustion control is completely closed, the fireplace is in a slow combustion phase.

If the hearth is hot enough, slow combustion will not extinguish the fire, but there will be a noticeable change in the flame pattern. The flames will be slow and may appear dirty if the wood is too wet (moisture content of 20% and more). Do not allow the wood to burn without flame, since this will produce excessive creosote in the unit.

Creosote may accumulate on the glass door.

This method of burning should be used only after operating the Montecito fireplace with the air control opened to produce a hot fire for about an hour or at medium pace for at least three (3) hours. Slow combustion can be used at night in order to reduce the heat output and to prolong the burn. The loading time will be between 6-8 hours.

REFUELING FOR BEST PERFORMANCE

The Montecito fireplace will operate best if attention is given to operating the unit with the damper fully opened after refueling in order to bring the firebox and the chimney system up to their optimum operating temperature.

Combustion efficiency is relative to firebox temperature. A temperature of 500º C (932º F) and up, with a visible flame, in the upper part of the firebox indicates a maximum efficiency.

To obtain this temperature, the fireplace must be operated with the primary air and air boost controls fully opened during 10 to 20 minutes after reloading, depending on the heat and on the moisture content of the wood.

Once you have reached the desired temperature, the air boost can be closed and the primary air set to a medium setting. You know you have reached the desired temperature when, closing the primary air control, you can see a flame at the top of the firebox. The benefit of this technique will be cleaner glass, less creosoting, greater efficiency and the most pleasing fire for your enjoyment.

SMOKING –

CAUSES AND TROUBLESHOOTING

To reduce the likelihood of smoking when opening the door, set the combustion air controls to the left before opening the door. Your fireplace has been designed and tested to provide smoke free operation. Occasionally, there may be a small amount of smoking upon lighting the fire, until the chimney heats up but this should not continue. If the fireplace continues to smoke it is probably for one of the following reasons:

NOTE: DIAGRAMS & ILLUSTRATIONS ARE NOT TO SCALE.

A. Negative pressure in the house - As the fire burns, air goes up the chimney. This air must be replaced through leakage into the house or through the outside air duct. When operating the Montecito fireplace, open a nearby window temporarily to check if there is adequate replacement air supply.

B. Fans operating (e.g.: range hood) - These fans draw air out of the house and may actually cause a negative pressure in the house. Turn off all fans and open a nearby window to determine if this is the cause of the problem.

C. Wet wood - Wet or tarred wood will smoulder and smoke instead of burn properly. Your dealer can help you determine if you have properly seasoned wood for burning.

D. Dirty or blocked chimney - Check to make sure the chimney is clear and clean. If dirty call a certified chimney sweep or use a properly sized chimney brush to clean.

E. Chimney not long enough - The minimum chimney height is twelve (12) feet (3.7 m) not including the fireplace height. The chimney must extend at least three (3) feet

(915 mm) above its point of contact with the roof and at least two (2) feet (610 mm) higher than any roof or wall within ten (10) feet (3 m) of it. When installed with offsets, the minimum chimney height is fifteen (15) feet (4.6 m). Additional height will increase draft and will decrease the tendency to smoke.

F. Poor chimney draft - With no fire, there should be sufficient draft to exhaust cigarette smoke introduced under the baffle. Chimneys installed against an outside wall without protection may generate back draft problems which will cause start-up problems. To prevent this, open a nearby window, roll up a piece of paper and light it. Then, hold it in the upper part of the firebox to warm up the chimney. Wait until the draft is sufficient, then start the fire.

IMPORTANT CAUTIONS

A. Do not block the hot air vents to the fireplace as this will cause the fireplace to overheat.

B. Never use gasoline, gasoline-type 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.

C. Do not burn coal. The sulphur in coal will corrode the firebox and chimney.

D. Keep combustible materials at least 48”

(1.2 m) away from the front of the fireplace opening.

E. Never leave children unattended when there is a fire burning in the fireplace.

F. Do not use the fireplace as an incinerator to burn paper, cardboard or construction material such as pressed wood, plywood or lumber. Use only untreated wood.

Wood protectors, metallic paper, coal, plastic, waste, beach wood, Christmas tree, sulphur and/or oil will damage the fireplace.

G. Do not burn driftwood which has been in the ocean or salt water. The salt will corrode the firebox and chimney.

H. Do not burn wood in the area in front of the grate.

I. Do not allow the wood to smoulder or burn without flame, since this will produce excessive creosote in the unit as well as increased particulate emissions.

J. Blower for forced air kit operating - Make sure that the blower is at the “off” position when you open the fireplace door for reloading.

MAINTAINING YOUR FIREPLACE

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 shall be inspected at least twice a year during the heating season to determine when a creosote buildup has occurred.

When creosote has accumulated it shall be removed to reduce the risk of a chimney fire.

When the creosote accumulation is large, a creosote fire in the chimney can damage the chimney and overheat the surrounding wood framing. Creosote formation in a chimney can be minimized by making sure there is always visible flame burning, avoid smouldering fires and by proper refuelling techniques.

Chimney Maintenance

Regular chimney inspection and maintenance combined with proper operation will prevent chimney fires. Keep your chimney clean. Do not allow more than 1/16” (1.6 mm) creosote build up in your chimney. The amount of creosote will depend on variables such as frequency of use and type of fire. We recommend that you:

A. Initially inspect the chimney system weekly.

From this, you will learn how often it will be necessary to clean your chimney.

B. Have your chimney cleaned by a qualified chimney sweep. If you wish to clean it yourself, we recommend using a stiff plastic or non-metallic brush. If a metal brush is used, its size should be slightly smaller than the flue to avoid damaging the chimney. Do not use a brush that will scratch the stainless steel interior of the chimney.

C. Do not expect chemical cleaners to keep your chimney clean. The rain cap can be removed for inspection and/or cleaning of the chimney.

Caution: It is necessary to remove the baffle from the top of the firebox before cleaning the chimney. See “Top Baffle Removal Prior To

Chimney Sweep.”

Dealing With a Chimney Fire

Regular chimney maintenance and inspection can prevent chimney fires. If you have a chimney fire, follow these steps:

1. Close the fireplace door and the combustion air controls.

2. Alert your family of the possible danger.

3. If you require assistance, alert your fire department.

4. If possible, use a dry chemical fire extinguisher, baking soda or sand to control the fire. Do not use water as it may cause a dangerous steam explosion.

5. Check outside to ensure that sparks and hot embers coming out of the chimney are not igniting the roof.

6. Do not use the fireplace again until your chimney and fireplace have been inspected by a qualified chimney sweep or a Fire

Department Inspector.

Top Baffle Removal Prior to Cleaning The

Chimney

Before starting to clean your chimney, we recommend that you remove the top baffle to avoid creosote dust collection at the top of the baffle. Follow these steps to set the top baffle out of the way:

1. Remove the side refractory holder. They are located at the top of the refractory.

2. Lift the front baffle.

3. Slide the back baffle under the front baffle.

You now have access to the chimney.

Figure 2A - Top Baffle Removal

Figure 2B - Top Baffle Removal

Finish Door Casing Care

Use a glass cleaner and a soft cloth to polish the casing. Do not use abrasives such as steel wool, steel pads or an abrasive polish for they may scratch the casing’s finish.

5


DISPOSING OF ASHES

NOTE: For better performances, we recommend leaving 1/2 inch of ashes in the firebox.

Remove ashes only when the fire is out and the ashes are cold (24 to 48 hours after the fire is out).

Do not leave the ashes in the house as they give off carbon monoxide and other toxic gases.

WARNING

Disposal of Ashes: Ashes should be placed in a steel container with a tight fitting lid and moved outdoors immediately. 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 cinders have thoroughly cooled.

REFRACTORY REPLACEMENT

The intense heat of the fire will normally cause hairline cracks in the refractory. These cracks can be minimized by proper curing as described in “First Fires”. They will not normally diminish the effectiveness of the refractory. If large cracks develop, then the refractory should be replaced. To replace the refractory bricks, follow these steps:

1. Remove the front refractories

2. Remove the bottom refractory

3. Remove the left side refractory

4. Remove the right side refractory

5. Remove the back refractory

6. Remove the front ceramic baffle

7. Remove the rear ceramic baffle

To install the new refractories, follow the above steps in reverse.

1. Front Refractories

2. Bottom Refractory

3. Left Side Refractory

DOOR INSTALLATION

The door must be installed only when the installation of the Montecito™ fireplace is completed.

All you have to do is fit the male part of the hinge, already on the door, to the female part, which is on the fireplace. To remove the door, simply pull the door up from the hinges (see Figure 4).

The door adjustment has been set at the factory. If the fit is still not perfect, you can adjust the door using the hinge screws.

DOOR ADJUSTMENT

The door may need to be adjusted to be completely airtight. The gaskets’ air-tightness can be adjusted using the adjustment screw located on the right side of the fireplace facade (An Allen key

#1/8 – not supplied - will be necessary for this adjustment).

Checking Door Seal

A one-inch strip of paper may be used to perform a test of the integrity of the door seal. Close the door on the paper in at least eight points. It is normal to feel only a slight amount of friction.

The door gasket does not need to be “tight” in all areas, since a small amount of leakage is not hazardous or detrimental to the performance of your fireplace.

Framing, Facing And Mantel

The construction of the framing, facing, and mantel must be in accordance with the standards and the following illustrations (Figures

10 and 11):

A. Frame the fireplace using 2” x 3” or heavier lumber.

B. WARNING: Combustible materials cannot be used in the space directly above the fireplace, except for the studs above the facade that support the facing and mantel. This area must remain empty for a height of 6’8” (2,032 mm) measured from the base of the appliance.

C. Frame the fireplace with vertical studs at the sides of the fireplace running from floor to ceiling (see Figure 8). If combustible facing is to be used, position the studs back, from the front edge of the fireplace (a space that is the thickness of the facing material, so that the facing can be installed flush with the fireplace facing). Frame headers between the vertical studs only as follows:

• Place 2” x 3” or 2” x 4” headers, only along the upper part of the front, side and back faces (some codes may require a 2” x 6” on an outside bearing wall). Do not put wood or any combustible material within the area above the fireplace except on the front facing.

• Place headers only as required to support the facing and mantel.

D. WARNING: The fireplace must not be in contact with any insulation or loose filling material. Cover the insulation with drywall panels around the fireplace.

Hearth Extension Requirements

The Montecito

TM

fireplace may be installed directly on a combustible floor. The supplied safety metal strip must be positioned as follows:

One half under the front of the fireplace and the other half must extend on the floor over which the hearth extension will be built (see Figure 7A).

* The safety metal strip must cover the entire width of the fireplace.

The combustible floor in front of the fireplace must be covered with a non-combustible material (tile, marble, stone, etc). See Figures 7B.

COLD CLIMATE INSTALLATIONS

Climates where temperatures will fall below

32° F (0° C).

The heating performance of the appliance will vary depending upon the level of insulation, house design, how the appliance is operated, etc.

If this fireplace is being installed in a cold climate, it is especially important to seal all cracks around the fireplace and wherever cold air could enter the room with noncombustible material.

The crack between the fireplace and the hearth extension must be sealed with a non-combustible material such as sand-cement grout.

Elevated Fireplaces

u

Elevated fireplace installations require a special “Z” Metal Safety Strips

(field provided), in place of the safety metal strip shown above. The safety strip should extend the full width of the fireplace. When more than one safety strip is used they must overlap by a minimum of 1”. Hearth extension of an elevated fireplace must respect the same minimal dimensions as a fireplace installed directly on the floor

HOT AIR DUCTING INSTALLATION

The Montecito™ wood burning fireplace is approved for use with a Gravity kit (hot air ducting system).

Gravity Kit

The gravity kit is designed for double hot air outlets and includes: (See Figure 14).

- Two (2) telescopic lengths 8” I.D.

- Two (2) 90º elbows 8” I.D.

- Two (2) hot air outlet kits

(grill and frames)

- Two (2) adaptors

See Gravity Kit Accessories Page 20.

For safe installation, the gravity kit must meet the following requirements:

Minimum height* 68” (1,727 mm)

Maximum length See Figure 14

* The height of the louver must be measured from the base of the Montecito fireplace to the middle point of the louver.

The only blower that can be used with the gravity kit is the one sold with the fireplace.

To extend the double outlet system, it will be necessary to purchase two adjustable lengths

(H8951).

Grill

Frame

WARNING: Both pipes of the double hot air outlet must be installed. Any other installation may cause fire and void warranty.

Figure 15

When installing the double outlet system, the hot air outlets can be installed in the same room as the fireplace, or one or both of the outlets can be installed in adjacent or upper rooms.

Installing the ducts at different elevations will tend to exhaust more heat out of the higher outlet (Figure 14).

WARNING: The outlet grills should not be installed facing upward through a floor.

Danger of burns can result if grills in floor are stepped on.

10

Figure 13

FIREPLACE BLOWER

The fireplace comes equipped with a heat activated blower. It is located in the bottom of the fireplace, towards the back. It uses 120V and must be connected to the main electrical circuit by a qualified electrician. For connection, use the electrical box supplied with the unit located on the bottom right corner of the fireplace.

If you wish to adjust the blower speed, the variable speed control (VRUW) provided must be installed in line with the wiring. Again, use a qualified electrician for installation.

If the blower requires servicing,

1- Remove the doors and decorative facade.

2- Remove the screw located below the blower motor that holds it to the back of fireplace.

3- Pull the blower out of the unit through the square hole located in the front bottom right corner.

The duct system must be installed respecting the following:

1. Remove the plates closing up the 8” dia. holes on top of the fireplace. Then, cut the insulation in order to obtain two 8” dia. openings.

Fix the adaptors on the fireplace openings by turning clockwise (Figure 15).

2. Maintain at least a 2” (50 mm) clearance between the ducts and any combustible material; the required hole size is 13” x 13”

(330 mm x 330 mm).

Exception #1: For the grills, the framing can be 10-3/4” x 10-3/4” (275 mm x 275 mm) to provide the clearance as required by the integral spacers on the double outlet duct system.

3. The maximum number of elbows in a run of duct is two.

4. Maintain at least 6-1/2” (160 mm) clearance from the outlet grill framing to a combustible ceiling, side wall or mantel.

5. When traversing a combustible wall or floor, a firestop must be installed at the wall or floor penetration. The hole size must be

13” x 13” (330 mm x 330 mm)

6. Do not connect the hot air ducts to a central heating system. Malfunction of the heating system’s blower will cause the fireplace to overheat. A furnace duct is only single wall and not double wall as is required for the

Montecito fireplace hot air exhaust.

7. Use only IHP grills and components as described in this manual. Other grills or registers, for example, may be too restrictive and may overheat the fireplace or ceiling.

8. Do not use insulated flexible ducts as they will overheat.

9. Do not use tees or any other components than the ones specifically listed here.

10. Never allow the ducting to pitch down as hot air will be trapped creating a fire hazard.

Never route the ducting downwards.

11. The hot air outlet grills must be installed with the louvers pointing downwards in order to prevent overheating adjacent ceilings.

12. Always install the two outlet grills when using the double hot air outlet kit.

OUTSIDE AIR KIT

It is mandatory to install an outside air connection to the Montecito™ wood burning fireplace.

The following components are required and are included with the fireplace:

• Outside air kit (includes 4 inch flex that goes up to ten (10) feet long)

• 4” Adaptor for fireplace connection

The outside air assembly must be installed according to the following requirements:

Outside Air Installation

The outside air assembly may be installed according to the following requirements:

A) Duct length should be kept to a minimum.

The maximum length of a 4” interior diameter

(100 mm) insulated flexible duct is twenty

(20) feet (6.1 m). (See note below).

B) The air intake register must not be installed more than ten (10) feet (3050 mm) above the base of the fireplace.

C) The fresh air must come from outside the house. The air intake must not draw air from the attic, basement or garage.

D) The air intake should be installed where it is not likely to be blocked by snow or exposed to extreme wind and away from automobile exhaust fumes, gas meters and other vents.

E) The duct and register may be installed above or below floor level.

Make a 4-1/4” (110 mm) hole in the outside wall of the house at the chosen location. From outside, place the outside air register in the hole

(open side down) and fasten the register to the wall with screws as shown (see Figure 18).

Slip the pipe into the insulated sleeve. Place the insulated pipe over the register tube and over the fireplace’s outside air connector (see

Figure 19). At each end, carefully pull back the insulation and plastic cover exposing the flexible pipe. Using the aluminium tape provided, wrap the tape around the joint between the flexible pipe and the air inlets. Carefully push the insulation and plastic cover back over the pipe. Using aluminium tape, fasten the plastic cover in place.

NOTE: We recommend not to exceed twenty

(20) feet of 4” flexible pipe. If you require a longer length we recommend that you use a 5” diameter flexible pipe for the complete run up to thirty (30) feet and a 6” diameter pipe for a run of up to forty (40) feet.

6. The chimney must extend at least three (3) feet (915 mm) above its point of contact with the roof and at least two (2) feet (610 mm) higher than any wall, roof or building within ten (10) feet (3m) of it (Figure 20).

7. If the chimney extends higher than five (5) feet (1,500 mm) above its point of contact with the roof, it must be secured using a roof brace.

8. A rain cap must be installed on top of the chimney. Failure to install a rain cap may cause corrosion problems.

9. Cut and frame square holes in all floors, ceilings, and roof that the chimney will go through to provide a 2” (50 mm) clearance between the chimney and any combustible materials. Do not fill this 2” space with insulation or any other combustible material.

10. Portions of the chimney which may extend through accessible spaces must be enclosed to avoid contact with combustible materials or damage to the chimney.

11. When offsets are used, the pipe may not penetrate a ceiling or floor unless it is running vertical (no 30° offsets).

THE CHIMNEY SYSTEM

Chimney Installation Notes

1. If possible, install an interior chimney as it will provide better performance. In areas with continuous temperatures below -18° C (0° F), the use of an exterior chimney increases the likelihood of operating problems such as low draft, high rate of creosoting, and poor start-up characteristics. Exterior chimneys are also prone to down-with dry and flow reversal. Installations, which are located on lower floors in the house, such as in a basement, in combination with outside chimney, are especially prone to flow reversal.

2. The IHP fireplace model Montecito may be installed only with Security

Chimneys International 6” diameter chimney systems.

3. A chimney venting a fireplace shall not vent any other appliance.

4. The minimum chimney height is twelve (12) feet (3.7 m). In altitude, add 18” (450 mm) to the chimney for every 2,000 feet (600 m) above sea level.

Figure 20

NOTE: 2" clearance to combustibles around chimney components required.

NOTE: Blown or fill type insulation materials must not be in contact with the fireplace or in the enclosure frame as described in ‘’Enclosure’’ section.

NOTE: Local codes may not require firestopping at the ceiling levels for outside chase installations. However, it is recommended for safety and the reduction of heat loss.

*

chimneys place the first chimney length on the fireplace. To lock it in place, turn 1/4 of a turn clockwise. With the AC

*

chimney, you must use a starter section before installing the first chimney length

(Figure 23). Continue installing chimney lengths making sure to lock each length in place.

4. Every time the chimney passes through a ceiling or a wall, install the appropriate firestop. When you reach the desired height, install the roof support. When installing a support, slightly lift the chimney system so the weight will lie on the support, not on the fireplace to reduce expansion noises (refer to instructions included with the support).

5. Then, put the roof flashing in place and seal the joint between the roof and the flashing with roofing pitch (see Figures 24 and 25).

For sloping roofs, place the flashing under the upper shingles and on top of the lower shingles. Nail the flashing to the roof, using roofing nails.

6. Place the spacers and the storm collar over the flashing, and tighten it with the bolt supplied. Finally, seal the joint between the storm collar and the chimney, using silicone caulking.

7. Install the chimney cap. Once the chimney cap is in place, the roof flashing can be washed with a solvent or vinegar and then painted with rust-proof paint.

GLASS CARE

Glass Replacement

The glass used for the Montecito™ fireplace is a high temperature ceramic glass (1,400° F /

760° C). If the glass breaks, it must be replaced with an identical ceramic glass. Tempered glass or ordinary glass will not withstand the high temperatures of the Montecito fireplace.

Replacement glass should be purchased from a

IHP dealer (see “Replacement Parts”, Page 23).

DO NOT OPERATE THE UNIT WITH CRACKED

OR BROKEN GLASS.

Glass Cleaning

The Montecito fireplace is designed to keep the glass clean under normal operating conditions. If the Montecito fireplace is operated continuously with the combustion air controls closed, the glass will tend to get dirty unless the fuel, firebox and glass are maintained at hot temperatures (see “Refueling For Best

Performance”). To clean the glass, there are a number of specially designed cleaners. Your authorized IHP dealer can recommend a suitable cleaner which is available in your area.

Regular household glass cleaners will not clean creosote. Do not use abrasives such as steel pads, steel wool or oven cleaner as they will scratch the glass.

DO NOT USE CHEMICAL GLASS CLEANERS

ON PAINTED SURFACES AS IT MAY CAUSE

THE PAINT TO PEEL.

CAUTION : DO NOT ALLOW WINDOW CLEANER

TO GET IN CONTACT WITH DOOR GASKET OR

PAINT ON FACADE OR DOOR. ONCE CLOSED,

CONTACT OF GLASS CLEANER WITH THE

FIREPLACE FACADE CAN PROVOKE PAINT

PEELING OFF.

Gasket Replacement

Remove the door from the unit (see Page 6) and lay it on a clean unabrasive surface. To replace the gasket, first remove all of the old gasket and gasket cement. Make sure that the surface is totally clean before applying new cement (a high temperature silicone caulking rated at 500° F [260° C], is suitable) or adhesion problems may result. Apply gasket cement to the gasket channel and install the new gasket.

FIREPLACE INSTALLATION

Locating The Montecito Fireplace

The best location to install your fireplace is determined by considering the location of windows, doors, and the traffic flow in the room where the fireplace is located, allowing space in front of the unit for the hearth extension and the mantel, and taking into consideration the location of the hot air ducts (optional), outside air kit and chimney.

If possible, you should choose a location where the chimney will pass through the house without cutting floor or roof joists (see fireplace dimensions Page 9).

Usually, no additional floor support is needed for the fireplace. The adequacy of the floor can be checked by first estimating the weight of the fireplace system. Weights are given on Page 23. Note the floor construction and consult your local building code to determine if additional support is needed.

The Montecito fireplace may be installed directly on the floor or on a raised base (for proper guidelines, refer to “Hearth Extension

Requirements”) and a minimum of 6’8” (2 m) measured from the base of the appliance to the ceiling is required.

When selecting the location, the chimney outlet position and the direction of the wind are important factor affecting the chimney performance.

To allow a maximum draft and to reduce wind turbulence, the chimney must:

• Penetrate the highest part of the roof.

• Be installed as far as possible of roof offsets, trees or any other obstructions that may cause wind turbulence and back drafts in the chimney.

• The least amount of offsets (elbows) possible. NOTE: A maximum of 2 offsets is

allowed.

CHIMNEY SUPPORT INSTALLATION

Universal Roof Support

This support has three possible uses:

1. For ASHT+

*

/ HT6103+

*

and S-2100+

*

/ HT6000+

*

, it must be used on a roof to support the chimney.

2. It may be used on a floor, ceiling or roof above an offset to support the chimney above the offset.

3. It may be used on a floor, ceiling or roof as a supplementary support.

Table 6 gives maximum height of supported chimney.

NOTE: For the AC

*

chimney, a support section must be used every forty

(40) feet (12 m) instead of the universal roof support (ST).

For roof support installation, refer to the instructions provided with the support.

UNIVERSAL OFFSET SUPPORT INSTALLATION

This support is used to support the chimney above an offset. When the chimney offset is used to traverse a wall this support may be used on the wall to support the chimney. The maximum heights are given in

Table 6. For offset support installation, refer to the instructions provided with the support.

CHIMNEY CHASE AND MULTIPLE TERMINATIONS

For the purpose of this manual, a chimney chase is considered a part of the chimney system rather than part of a building. The termination must be placed a minimum of 18” (460 mm) above the chase.

For installations where more than one chimney is located in the same chase or within the same area, we suggest that their terminations be separated by at least 16” (410 mm) horizontally, and 18” (460 mm) vertically. This separation is to prevent smoke migrating from one chimney to another (see Figure 30).

Figure 31


*


INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR MASONRY APPLICATION

WARNING: Before starting the installation, the masonry chimney must be inspected by a qualified chimney sweep.

The following requirements must be respected:

1. The chimney must be absolutely clear of any soot residue or creosote.

Check for cracks, loose or missing bricks that could inhibit correct installation of the liner.

2. The clearance to combustible must be a minimum of 1” between the outside of the masonry and any wood framing or loose insulation.

3. The chimney must be built in accordance with the current building code.

4. No other appliance can be connected to the same chimney.

5. The clearances to combustible for these fireplace connectors are 2” on the side and bottom and 16” at the top.

6. The connector parts are not necessary if the connection between the insulated length and the stainless steel liner is done within the masonry chimney.

Installation:

The chimney must be relined with a stainless steel liner model Tubinox™

*

or Projet

®

SS

*

of the same diameter as the outlet of the fireplace.

For connection at a 30º angle, a special connector (BISUMA30

*

) must be used to connect the liner to the insulated chimney.

* IMPORTANT NOTE - The use of a 45º connector (BISUMA

*

) is approved for use in Canada ONLY. Installations in the USA must use the 30º connector (BISUMA30

*

).

Follow these steps:

1- Position the fireplace in its location. Temporarily install the ASHT+

*

elbow on the top of the fireplace and, using a level, mark with an oval the location where the flue liner will enter the masonry chimney.

2- In the middle of the oval, drill a hole in the masonry chimney at 30º.

3- Increase the size of the hole until a 30º Tubinox

*

liner elbow can be easily slipped through.

4- Slide the liner down from the top of the masonry chimney until you reach the hole level.

5- Slip through the hole a 30º liner elbow and connect it to the liner.

6- Add a small liner section to the liner elbow which will allow the liner to extend at least 12” (measured at the top of the liner) from the masonry chimney.

7- Seal the opening around the liner with high temperature refractory cement.

8- The next steps must be done in the following order:

See typical installation illustrated below.

A. Select the ASHT+

*

length that will fit between the elbow and the liner so that it will slide at least 2” over the liner section (You may need to cut the liner for a better fit).

B. Take that section and the BISUMA30

*

cover and slide it over the liner.

Make sure you have enough opening to be able to install the ASHT+

*

elbow without difficulty.

C. Install the 30º elbow on the fireplace.

D. Slide the length section back down on the elbow and twist lock the two together.

E. Pull the cover down over the length and install the insulation pad over the liner; be careful to cover the liner completely.

F. Slide back the cover over the insulation and fix it in place using the 3 metal screws supplied.
