Existing Fireplace Preparation
A few points must be considered before inserting the
780 into an existing replace cavity. Generally, no
modi cations are allowed to the existing replace that
will compromise the integrity of the existing replace.
Components that are bolted or screwed on such as
dampers or baf es may be removed to accommodate
the installation of the 780 engine. Cutting away
any sheet metal parts of the existing fi replace
to accommodate the installation of the 780 is
prohibited. Check with local authorities if in doubt.
Clean Fireplace and Chimney
Have the chimney swept and the replace cavity
including ash dumps and clean-outs cleaned before
installing the 780 heater and vent liners. Any creosote
or soot residue remaining in the replace cavity
chimney or clean-out may cause odors or stains once
the 780 insert is installed. Consult with chimney sweep
for information on how best to clean.
Existing Dampers
Factory-built, zero-clearance replaces will require the
damper to be removed in order to install the vent liners.
These dampers are usually bolted into place. Dampers
in masonry replaces must be xed open and may
remain in place.
Ash Retaining Curbs
Some replaces (particularly factory-built) have a
raised curb at the front edge to retain ashes. Check the
dimensions carefully to ensure the 780 engine will t
behind any raised curb (some curbs may be removed
separately from the refractory base).
Only qualifi ed licensed or trained personnel
should install this appliance.
