WALL PASS-THROUGH - Follow all local codes for requirement of firestops. Refer to the vent systems manufacturer's installation manual for complete installation instructions. Installation must conform with the venting requirements and restrictions as outlined in this manual. REFER TO THE ADDENDUM VENTING SECTION TO FIND diameter B-Type Venting that must be used. UL/CSA approved B-Vent only. DO NOT decrease the vent size. Vent runs are approved for up to 110 feet with quantity of 11, 90 degree elbows. This is not the case with all instances. Vent runs that don’t meet the approved limitations listed (up to 110ft with up to 11 90 degree elbows) must be reviewed and approved by Stellar Hearth Products. Vent runs may also contain a downward component. The downward component may be a maximum of 6 feet plus the distance to the center line of the elbow. (Figure 8A) This will be about 87" for 8" diameter pipe and 92" for 10" diameter pipe. Due to natural buoyancy of flue gas products, venting downward increases restriction. Every inch of vertical drop counts as triple inches subtracted off the total vent run. Example: a maximum drop of 92" means the total allowed vent run is decreased to 276" (23') Once a downward component has been utilized, the vent cannot go upwards again, moisture may get trapped in the vent pipe. Important: Be sure to do your own calculations based on the center line dimension given from the pipe manufacture you are using for your installation. Available In-Line Power Venting An in-line power vent (RSIF series from Enervex) is approved for use with Stellar fireplaces. The in-line powervent must be specified and approved for use by Stellar Hearth. Vent runs after the in-line powervent may use a pressure approved pipe, but it is not required. If you use B-Vent after an in-line powervent it is crucial that all pipe and elbow joints, and the longitudinal seam are sealed using an high heat approved mastic or foil tape. NOTE: All pipe and elbow joints must be sealed. This includes the longitudinal seam on the pipe. High Temp RTV Silicone and/or foil tap MUST be used on each joint/seam. Failure to do so may cause lack of vacuum and may not trigger the vacuum switch.

It is important to make sure the termination cap remains unobstructed at all times from snow, ice, leaves or other debris. • This fireplace is equipped with an ignition device which automatically lights the pilot and main burner. The pilot and burner light automatically with the wall switch. DO NOT try to light the pilot by hand. Before lighting this fireplace, follow these instructions exactly. • BEFORE LIGHTING, smell all around the appliance for gas. Be sure to smell next to the floor because some gas is heavier than air and will settle on the floor. • Do not use this appliance if any part has been under water. Immediately call a qualified service technician to inspect the appliance and to replace any part of the control system which has been under water. WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS: • Do not touch any electrical switches • Do not try to light any appliance • Do not use the phone in your building • Immediately call your gas supplier from a neighbor’s phone • Follow the gas supplier’s instructions • If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the fire department STOP: IF YOU DO NOT FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS EXACTLY, A FIRE OR EXPLOSION MAY RESULT, CAUSING PROPERTY DAMAGE, PERSONAL INJURY OR LOSS OF LIFE. NOTE: A PAINT SMELL WILL OCCUR DURING THE FIRST FEW HOURS OF BURNING. NOTE: THIS FIREPLACE MAY PRODUCE NOISES OF VARYING DEGREE AS IT HEATS AND COOLS DUE TO METAL EXPANSION AND CONTRACTION. THIS IS NORMAL AND DOES NOT AFFECT THE PERFORMANCE OR LONGEVITY OF THE FIREPLACE. A. LIGHTING THE FIREPLACE To light the fireplace: Activate the switch. The fireplace has a pre and post timer set at 30 seconds. The power-vent and flame will not turn on for 30-60 seconds after the keyed valve is turned on, and the power-vent will run for 30 seconds after it has been shut off. 02/17/2021 INS CUST_MASTER Rev EPage 22 1. Turn off the fireplace at switch. 2. Turn off all electrical power to fireplace. 3. Wait five (5) minutes to allow any gas that may have accumulated inside firebox to escape. If you then smell gas, STOP! Follow safety information on front cover and on previous page of the installation manual. If you don't smell gas, go to next step. 4. Turn ON all electrical power to fireplace. 5. Turn fireplace on at switch.OFF 2 ON 5 Figure 12B 12 - LIGHTING & SHUTDOWN STOP!

Install a barb fitting on the tap you want to measure. 3. Light the fireplace, check the pressure. 4. Turn off fireplace; reinstall plug. 5. Check for leaks. 14 - FINALIZING THE INSTALLATION B. FLAME APPEARANCE Flame appearance is affected by several factors including altitude, venting configuration and fuel quality. Although the venturi setting has been factory set, adjustments may be necessary for optimal performance and visual aesthetics. When fireplace is first lit, the flames will be blue. Flames will gradually turn yellowish-orange during first 15 minutes of operation. If flames remain blue, or become dark orange with evidence of sooting (black tips), the burner tube venturi may need adjustment. Contact Stellar Hearth. A. INSTALLING THE MEDIA NOTE: DO NOT SUBSTITUTE THE SUPPLIED MEDIA WITH ANY OTHER KIND OF MEDIA WITHOUT WRITTEN APPROVAL OF STELLAR HEARTH PRODUCTS. Figure 14 Place the supplied glass media into the base tray. Cover the base evenly. Do not use more than the supplied amount. Do not get any glass media into the pilot area; a hazardous condition could result! You should be able to see the burner slightly through the media. If you can't, push the media back from the burner. Smaller flames will result from too much media over the burner. DO NOT COVER THE BURNER; POOR FLAME APPEARANCE WILL RESULT. NOTE: The appliance and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system at pressures in excess of ½ psi. (3.5kPs) NOTE: The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shut-off valve during any pressure testing of the gas line at test pressures equal to or less than ½ psi (3.5 kPa). CAUTION: A LOW PRESSURE READING CAN CAUSE DELAYED IGNITION NOTE: If inlet pressure reading is too high or too low, contact the gas company.

This is not the case with all instances. You must have venting scenario approved by Stellar Hearth Products. Qty 1, RS014 Powervent from Enervex are approved for use with this Stellar fireplaces. NOTE: All joints must be sealed. High Temp RTV Silicone and/or foil tape MUST be used on each joint. Failure to do so may cause lack of vacuum and may not trigger the vacuum switch. CAUTION: Vent cap location must be in compliance with guidelines on pages 15-17 of this manual. B. INTAKE AIR This fireplace takes combustion air from the house. MAKE-UP AIR IS REQUIRED. Local codes must be followed. The make-up air must be sized appropriately for all appliances that require room air. The fireplace will draw 1,200 CFM from the room. If a powered make-up air unit is used, the proving switch should be wired through the main fireplace switch, so the fireplace can not run without make- up air running. With the house doors and window completely closed and all air consumption appliances running (bath fans, kitchen hoods, clothes dryers, any other fireplaces, etc.), test the draw at the fireplace with a smoke match. This is an open hearth fireplace. 100% OF THE FLUE PRODUCTS MUST BE EXHAUSTED OUT OF THE FLUE. Check for flue gas spillage. Install carbon monoxide detectors for safety. CO DANGER CARBON MONOXIDE Open hearth fireplaces are susceptible to drafts within the structure. Furnace vents, ceiling fans, floor fans and other air moving devices can cause the flue gas to spill. Care should be taken to keep these devices away from the fireplace. 02/17/2021 INS CUST_MASTER Rev EPage 40 10A - ELECTRIC A.

The system consists of interlocking precast parts which are glued together with a ma- sonry adhesive. The parts of the MAGNUM fireplace and DM 54 chimney system are precast using a proprietary mixture of volcanic pumice aggregate and cement. It includes all the parts necessary for assembly of a complete firebox, smoke dome and chimney system. Each MAGNUM precast fireplace component is designed for a specific part of the fireplace such that only one means for assembly is possible. The firebox and smoke dome are designed to be fitted with a traditional cast iron, poker-style throat damper. How- ever, chimney top dampers are an option. The MAGNUM fireplace requires a standard refrac- tory fire brick liner be applied to the interior of the firebox. Fire brick must be a minimum thickness of one and one-eighth inch (1-1/8”). The MAGNUM fireplace is available in six sizes: twenty-eight inch (28”), thirty-six inch (36”), forty-two inch (42”), forty-eight inch (48”), sixty inch (60”) and seventy-two inch (72”). All units have a thirty-eight inch (38”) rough opening height before fire brick. The only parts which differ among the available sizes are width related pieces: the base plate, firebox back wall, front and back smoke dome components, and the smoke dome top plate. All units use the same side wall pieces. The DM 54 chimney system is a dual module refrac- tory chimney system. The basic chimney consists of an outer casing block and an inner liner with a fourteen inch (14”) di- ameter flue hole. The chimney components are field assembled using Earthcore Mortar to glue the components together. The DM 54 chimney system also includes an offset chimney block component, used to create offsets to the verti- cal run of the chimney. A brickledge component is available, designed to support chimney top brick veneer finishes. Prefabricated masonry chimney termination caps are also avail- able. The various MAGNUM fireplace and DM 54 chimney components will be described and illustrated in the follow- ing pages. Close attention should be paid to each component group’s specifications and installation requirements as de- scribed in this manual. Important: Due to heat and weight issues, the MAGNUM Series fireplace and DM 54 chimney system installations re- quire that the system be built upon a non-combustible concrete slab with no wood underpinnings supported to footings with concrete or steel and designed to carry the total weight of the Isokern fireplace and chimney system. The Fire-Lite application of the MAGNUM Series fireplace is designed to be built upon a combustible floor system and will also require a design that will support the total weight of the Isokern fireplace and chimney system. The FTF-13 or equivalent chimney system only must be used with the Fire-Lite application. Please refer to pages 56-81 for installation instruc- tions. Recommended minimum overall height for the MAGNUM Series and DM 54 chimney system for an indoor application are 18’-0” when the chimney is straight and 21’-0” when a chimney is offset. Maximum overall height is 82’ - 0”, however, installations over 57’ - 0” will require additional support. 3 02/17/2021 Intended Use Statement Note: Do not scale drawings. Illustrations in this manual are not to scale and are intended to show “typical” installations. Nominal dimensions are given for design and framing reference only, since actual installations may vary due to job specific design preferences. Always maintain the stated minimum clearances to combustible materials. Do not violate any specific installation requirements. The MAGNUM fireplace and DM 54 chimney system is tested and listed by Warnock Hersey (Intertek Testing Service) - Report No. 3159656MID-008 and Report No. 315653MID-006 - to UL 127, and UL 103HT - 2006. MAGNUM fireplace systems are also designed for installation in accordance with the National Fire Protection Association Standard for chimneys, fireplaces, vents and Solid Fuel-Burning Appliances (NFPA 211). MAGNUM fireplaces are not listed for use with fireplace inserts. 4 Intended Product Use Statement: The MAGNUM fireplace and DM 54 chimney systems are intended to burn solid wood fuel, propane or natural gas. Note: Installation of a gas pipe must comply with the Standard for Decorative Gas Appliances for Installation in Vented Fireplac- es, ANSI Z21.60. This fireplace is not designed to sit directly on a com- bustible floor system. The Fire-Lite application listed in the back section of this manual is designed to sit on a combustible floor. See pages 50-68 for specific installation requirements. This fireplace is intended for use as a supplemental heat source only and is not intended for heavy use as a primary heating system. Overfiring, abusive burning or mistreatment will void any claims (eg. burning construction debris or other highly flammable material; tossing, kicking or otherwise forcing logs into the firebox). MAGNUM fireplace and DM 54 chimney systems are conventional indoor or outdoor fireplaces designed to appear like traditional masonry fireplaces. MAGNUM fireplace and DM 54 chimney system units are intended for installation in residential homes and other buildings of conventional construc- tion. Note: The local authority having code jurisdiction should be consulted before installation to determine the need to obtain a permit. Important areas of concern with the installation of these fireplaces are: construction of proper load bearing foun- dation and concrete support slab; code required hearth exten- sion substrates and supports; proper assembly of components; clearance to combustible materials; height of chimney; and, techniques employed in applying finishing materials to the fireplace opening and hearth extension. Each of these important topics will be covered in detail throughout this manual. Installation personnel must give special attention to each topic as the installation progresses. All work performed on, near and adjoining the fireplace and chimney installation must meet or exceed the specifications and requirements in this manual and the prevail- ing local building code. Subsequent renovations, additions of cabinets and storage spaces in the enclosure surrounding the fireplace are also limited to the specifications in this manual and to the pre- vailing local building code. Isokern is not responsible for other construction work around the fireplace unit. WARNING: This fireplace has not been tested for use with glass doors. To reduce the risk of fire or injury, do not install glass doors. Some jurisdictions require the use of glass doors. If glass doors are used, operate fireplace with doors in the fully open position.02/17/2021 Safety Instructions 1. Before starting the MAGNUM fireplace and DM 54 chimney installation, read these installation instructions carefully to be sure you understand them completely. Failure to follow them could cause fireplace malfunction resulting in serious injury or property damage. 2. Always check local building codes governing fireplaces and fireplace installations. The MAGNUM fireplace and DM chim- ney installation must comply with all local, regional, state and national codes and regulations. 3. MAGNUM fireplace and DM 54 chimney systems are intend- ed for use in any application where a traditional masonry type fireplace would apply. The chimney system must always vent vertically to the outside of the building. 4. Creosote and soot formation and the 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. Because of creosote and soot buildup it is necessary to inspect and clean the fireplace and chimney prior to use and peri- odically during the heating season. Cleaning of the fireplace and the chimney system should be done annually at a minimum. In colder climates, chimney cleaning may need to be done periodi- cally throughout the heating season. 5. Before servicing, allow the fireplace to cool. Always shut off any electricity or gas to the fireplace while working on it. 6. Use only solid fuel or natural or LP gas log sets in this unit. Do not use artificial wax based logs, chemical chimney cleaners or flame colorants in this fireplace. 7. Never use gasoline, kerosene, gasoline-type lantern fuel, charcoal lighter fluid, or similar liquids to start or “freshen up” a fire in this fireplace. Keep all flammable liquids at a safe distance from the fireplace. 8. Always keep the flue damper open when heat is present in the fireplace. 9. Do not use a fireplace insert or any other product not speci- fied for use with the MAGNUM fireplace and DM 54 chimney systems unless written authorization is given by Isokern. Failure to heed this warning may cause a fire hazard and will void the Isokern warranty. 10. This fireplace is not intended to heat an entire home or to be used as a primary heat source. It is designed to ensure homeowner comfort by providing supplemental heat to the room. 11. Always ensure that an adequate supply of replacement combustion air from the outside of the house is accessible to the fire to support normal combustion. Fireplaces consume large volumes of air during the normal firing process. In the event the home is tightly sealed and has modern energy efficient features, the optional combustion air supply kits may not provide all the air required to sup- port combustion and the proper flow of combustion gases up the chimney. The manufacturer is not responsible for any smok- ing or related problems that may result from the lack of adequate air supply flowing into the house. It is the respon- sibility of the builder/contractor to ensure that adequate air supply has been provided for the fireplace. 12. “Smoke free” operation is not warranted nor is the manufacturer responsible for inadequate system draft caused by mechanical systems, general construction conditions, inadequate chimney heights, adverse wind conditions or any unusual environmental conditions or factors beyond the manufacturer’s control. Caution: When used with the MAGNUM fireplace system, all gas log sets must be operated with the damper clamped in the fully open position. This includes unlisted “vent free” log sets. Only listed “vent free” log sets may be operated with the damper in the closed position. 13. When in doubt about a component’s usability - has vis- ible or suspected physical damage - consult your Isokern distributor or authorized Isokern representative for advice. 5 02/17/2021 14. Modification to MAGNUM components not mentioned in this manual may void claims, listings and approvals and could result in an unsafe and potentially dangerous installation. Alterations to the MAGNUM firebox are allowed with prior written approval and instructions from Earthcore Indus- tries, LLC. The installer indemnifies the manufacturer of all claims and under no circumstances will manufacturer be liable for consequential, incidental, indirect, punitive or other dam- ages of any kind or nature, whether foreseeable or not, based on any claim by any party as to the modifications of the Isokern fireplaces. 15. Wherever insulation is used, the MAGNUM fireplace must not be placed directly against it. Keep all insulation or vapor barriers a minimum of three inches (3”) away from all fireplace and chimney components. It is recommended that insulation and vapor barriers, if used, first be covered with gypsum board, plywood, particle board or other material to assure that insulation and vapor barriers remain in place. WARNING Do not pack required air spaces with insulation or other materials. 16. Never leave children unattended when there is a fire burn- ing in the fireplace. 17. Burning some fuels (such as charcoal) can be hazardous due to the possibility of producing carbon monoxide, a color- less, odorless gas. Early signs of carbon monoxide poisoning resemble flu symptoms, including headaches, dizziness or nausea. Over exposure to carbon monoxide can lead to illness and death. It is strongly recommended to install smoke and carbon monoxide alarm / detector devices wherever fireplaces are in use. 6 Safety Instructions - (cont.) 02/17/2021 Warnock Hersey Listing Label - Facsimile - 7 FIGURE 1 Isokern Fireplace and Chimney Systems are tested and listed to UL standards: UL 127, ULC S610, and UL 103HT.

(Figure 3) The smoke dome front wall requires 0” clearance. All DM 44 and 54 chimney components require 0” clearance. (Figure 2). Note: “Combustibles” are defined as “normal construction materi- als” and are considered to be: wood framing materials, particle board, mill board, plywood sub-flooring, plywood paneling and wood flooring. Sheathing materials, such as plywood, particle board and drywall may cover the smoke dome front at 0” clearance. All combustible sheathing materials that protrude beyond front of firebox must be held 8” away from the sides of the firebox opening and 8” above the top of the firebox opening. Drywall must be cut 2” back from the firebox opening sides and 8” above the top of the opening. WARNING: Maintain a minimum of 3” clearance to insulation and vapor barriers. (Figure 75) Notes: A. The MAGNUM Series fireplace is rated for installation on a combustible floor system when using the Fire-Lite application only. See pages 60-69 for Fire-Lite installation instruc- tions. The Magnum Series fireplace must sit upon a concrete support slab designed to bear the total installed weight of the fireplace and DM 54 chimney system. (See Figure 2 for additional details). These support slabs can have no wood underpinnings. (Figure 3) B. Concrete support slabs for MAGNUM Series fire- places must provide the noncombustible hearth extension substrate needed to support the code required noncombustible hearth exten- sion finish materials. (Figures 2 and 3) C. All MAGNUM Series fireplaces shall have hearth extensions of approved noncombustible material such as brick, tile, or stone that is properly supported and with no combustible material against the underside thereof. Wooden forms used during the construction of hearths and hearth extensions shall be removed when the construction is complete. D. If a raised fireplace floor and raised hearth extension are preferred, the raised underlying structure must be built of non- combustible material and must sit on noncombustible substrate. 02/17/2021 BB A D CAFR A M E D O P ' G .

(Figure 5) Set a DM 54 outer casing onto this offset block so that the outer casing is at 45° to the firebox and square to the overhead framing system. Run the vertical DM 54 chimney through the overhead framing. More offset blocks can be used - if necessary to align with over- head framing - before running the vertical DM 54 chimney outer casing and liner. Note: Support the third offset down to footings and at each third offset block thereafter (see page 47).02/17/2021 ECI MORTAR SHIM IF REQUIRED TO ACHIEVE CORRECT HEIGHT 14 Assembly Instructions - 28, 36, 42 & 48 FIGURE 8 General Isokern Assembly Instructions: Earthcore Mortar (a thin-set type masonry adhesive) is used to glue all Isokern components together during field assembly of the unit. The mortar is supplied dry, in either 15 pound or 50 pound pails. Earthcore mortar is mixed with clean water to a smooth, workable texture (without lumps or dry pockets) of a “toothpaste” consistency. This mixture is suitable for application onto Isokern components by using a masonry grout bag supplied with the unit. Attention should be paid that the mortar mixture is not too thin or runny, as this will not allow the mortar to reach its maximum bonding strength. Earthcore mortar is squeezed from a grout bag onto the contact surfaces of the Isokern components as they are fitted to- gether. It is important that a 1/2” bead of mortar on all the compo- nents’ contact surfaces is applied at about 1/2” in from all edges of the contact surface of the component. (Figure 7) When setting the next component onto the mortared con- tact surface of the first component, some mortar should squeeze out along the face of the entire joint as a sign of complete and proper sealing of the joint. On broader contact surfaces it is advisable to apply several additional 1/2” beads of the Earthcore Mortar to the area to assure proper sealing of the joint. Properly mortared firebox and smoke dome assembly requires approximately 5 gallons (dry measure) of Earthcore mortar. Broken Components: Components broken into 2 or 3 pieces can be repaired by using Earthcore mortar along the break line as the component is set into place. Components broken into multiple small pieces should be discarded and replaced. Leveling and Aligning Components: Be sure to assemble all Isokern components level and flush with adjoining components. Earthcore mortar is not intended to create a mortar joint of any thickness for leveling purposes. Therefore, leveling and alignment adjustments are made by the use of small plastic shims supplied with the unit. (Figure 8) The shims can be inserted under a component to level and align it with adjacent Isokern components. Be sure to re-grout any and all gaps resulting from shim insertion to maintain components to full bearing. Notes: 1. Do not mix Earthcore mortar with spirits or anti-freeze agents. 2. The maximum recommended mortar joint thickness at Isokern components is 1/4”. FIGURE 7 FIGURE 6 02/17/2021 BASE PLATE ECI MORTAR FIRST COURSE SIDE WALL ECI MORTAR 15 Assembly Instructions - (cont.) 3. Earthcore mortar can be troweled over the face of a joint where it has squeezed out while setting components. It is not intended that the exposed faces of the Isokern components be completely covered with the mortar. Installation: Step 1: Set the MAGNUM base plate in a full bed of Earthcore Mortar flat on a proper concrete support foundation. (Figure 9). Do not set the MAGNUM base plate so that it is in span. Level the MAGNUM base plate by floating it in a bed of Earthcore Mortar to full bearing against the underlying noncombustible support surface. Notes: If the design preference is for a “flush hearth” (fireplace floor flush with the room’s floor), the base plate can be omitted from the assembly and the firebox walls built directly on the concrete support slab. The fire brick floor of the firebox is then set directly to the concrete support slab. This makes the fireplace finished fire brick floor approximately one and one-half inches (1-1/2”) above the top of the concrete support slab (Figure 10). If the design preference is for a raised hearth (floor of the fireplace elevated above the room’s floor), then the MAG- NUM base plate can be set on a noncombustible platform that is built up to the desired raised hearth height on the concrete support slab. When calculating raised hearth height be sure to allow for the three inch (3”) thick base plate plus the one and one half inch (1-1/2”) thick fire brick floor in addition to the height of the platform. Whether a flush hearth is preferred or a raised hearth, the combustible floor on front of the fireplace must be covered with a noncombustible hearth extension set tight against the fire- place front and extending at least 20 inches out from the finished fireplace and at least 12 inches beyond the finished sides of the fireplace opening. (Figure 11) For all “raised hearth” construction where concrete blocks are used to create the raised platform, it is necessary to use the MAGNUM base plate. Be sure to mortar the concrete block platform together. CMU used for base plate support should be rated ASTM 90. Step 2: Set the first course of the firebox back wall and side walls into place. It may be convenient to dry set the first course of side wall and back wall into place on the Isokern base plate and then to trace their position on the base plate with a pencil. (Figure 12) After outlining the dry set pieces, remove them and ap- ply Earthcore Mortar to the areas traced on the base plate where the side walls and back wall are to sit. By doing this, the first layer of Wall components can be set directly into mortar already applied to the proper areas on the base plate. (Figure 12) Be sure to put Earthcore Mortar on the contact surfaces of the vertical joints where the side wall and back wall compo- nents connect. (Figure 13) Note: At all component placement, be sure to mortar all compo- nent contact surfaces with Earthcore Mortar. Check for complete sealing of each contact joint while assembly progresses. FIGURE 12 FIGURE 9 FIGURE 11 FIGURE 10 02/17/2021 16 FIGURE 14 Assembly Instructions - (cont.) Step 3: Continue assembly of the second, third and fourth courses of the firebox side wall and back wall. Apply mortar to the top of each layer of wall components, set the next course above into place. Be sure to mortar all vertical joints of the side wall to back wall connection when setting each component to its mate. (Figure 13) Look for some mortar to squeeze out along the joints of all contact surfaces as a sign that the joint is thoroughly sealed with the approved mortar. Step 4: When all of the MAGNUM firebox wall components are set, check the top surface of the firebox for level. If necessary, adjust the top surface of the box assembly for level by inserting a shim between the lowest wall component and the top surface of the MAGNUM base plate. (Figure 8) Any gap created under the wall components during the Shim leveling process must be filled with mortar to full bearing against the base plate. Step 5: Make sure that the firebox assembly has been set level and square. Adjust as required while the mortar is still wet. Make a final inspection of all contact joints in the fire- box assembly to be sure they are properly sealed. Fill any and all gaps in the assembly, as necessary, with the approved mortar. Step 6: The MAGNUM comes with an eight inch (8”) thick damper beam assembly, a four piece component group that is to be assembled on top of the firebox. The damper beam assembly consists of two long lintel pieces and two short damper beam side pieces. The two lintels are identical in shape, size and in length, equal to the width of the MAGNUM fireplace model that they serve. Properly placed, one lintel is to sit on top of the firebox back wall and flush with it; the other lintel sits flush with the front of the firebox, spanning the firebox opening. These com- ponents both sit on their narrow base so that their beveled face points down and into the firebox interior. (Figure 15) The damper side pieces are designed to sit on the firebox side wall between the front lintel and the back lintel. (Figure 14) Each of the damper side pieces is designed specifically for its own side of the unit. When properly set, each damper side piece fits flush with the outside face of the firebox sidewall so that its interior bottom edge aligns with the interior angle of the firebox side wall that it sits on. (Figure 14) Be sure to mortar all damper beam components to the top surfaces of the firebox. Mortar the contact surfaces of each damper side com- ponent where it meets the front and back damper beam assem- bly lintel components. FIGURE 13 FIGURE 15 ECI MORTAR TWO COURSES BACK WALL FIRST DAMPER SUPPORT IN PLACE DAM PER CAST IRO SUPPORT FRONT DAMPER 02/17/2021 1" SMOKEDOME PARTS REAR FRONT END END DAMPER FRONT REAR 17 Assembly Instructions - (cont.) Step 7: With the damper beams assembled and mortared together, set the cast iron throat damper on top of the damper plate and over the damper plate opening. The cast iron damper’s operating plate should face toward the rear of the fireplace. (Figure 16) The flange at all four sides of the cast iron damper should be supported by the damper beam’s top surface. Before adjusting the cast iron damper to its final position proceed to Step 8. Step 8: Set the back smoke dome component across the damper beam in a bed of mortar and flush with the back face of the back damper plate lintel. (Figure 17) Set the front smoke dome component in mortar across the damper plate and 2 -1/4 inches back from the front of the front damper plate lintel. This placement should create a space of 17 inches between the front and back smoke dome components. Position the cast iron damper so that its front flange is approximately one inch (1”) away from the inside face of the front smoke dome component. (Figure 16) Run a thin bead of mortar around the four sides of the cast iron damper flange to avoid movement of the damper as it gets opened and closed. Step 9: Position the smoke dome’s sloping sidewalls at each end of the smoke dome components. (Figure 17) The sloping sidewalls fit in between the front and rear smoke dome components and also fit into the haunches at the ends of the front and rear smoke dome components. Mortar all contact surfaces thoroughly. Note: The smoke dome sloping sidewalls have a bev- eled bottom edge so that they will sit tight onto the flat top of the damper beam. Step 10: Make sure that all component contact surfaces have been properly sealed with approved mortar. Check smoke dome front and back walls to see that they are plumb, level and in alignment with mating components. Check alignment of the smoke dome sloping sidewall components to see that they are fully seated. Step 11: Set the smoke dome top plate into position on top of the smoke dome wall assembly. (Figure 18) One side of the smoke dome top plate shows a thickened center. This side is the bottom face of the top plate. The fourteen inch (14”) diameter flue hole in the top plate is centered in the smoke dome from side to side but is offset from front to back. FIGURE 17 FIGURE 18 FIGURE 16 Make sure that the top plate is set so that the flue hole is closer to the back wall of the smoke dome assembly. Be sure to set the smoke dome top plate flush with the front, back and sides of the smoke dome assembly. All contact surfaces must be properly sealed with the approved mortar. Note: The completed smoke dome assembly should present a stable and level surface for setting the flue components. (Figure 18) 02/17/2021 AROUND CONDUIT WITH NOTE: FILL ANY GAPS MORTAR.

Combustion Air Inlet: Combustion air inlet kits though not required by Isokern may help improve fireplace operation in homes tightly sealed and with other ventilating appliances installed (Figures 19 & 20). Check local codes for combustion air inlet requirements. The following is a general representation of a generic com- bustion air kit and not a requirement of Earthcore Industries, LLC. Local building codes prevail and should be checked before installa- tion. Generic fireplace combustion air kits typically consist of a sliding stainless steel access door affixed to a three inch (3”) or four inch (4”) diameter stainless steel sleeve approximately twelve inches (12”) long. An exterior vent with dress plate, weather hood and rodent preven- tion screen of a maximum one-quarter inch (1/4”) wire mesh completes the kit. (Figure 19) The access door is fitted into the finished fire brick lining at the interior sidewall of the MAGNUM firebox. The twelve inch (12”) long sleeve can be introduced into the firebox side wall or back wall by core drilling an appropriately sized hole at the selected firebox location. Keep the top of the four inch (4”) diameter access hole no more than six inches (6”) above the finished firebrick floor. The hole size should allow for a one-quarter inch (1/4”) mortar joint around the air access sleeve for heat expansion. The sleeve passes through the firebox wall and must be connected to metal pipe (by other) - either flexible or rigid - that leads to the source for outside combustion air, as directly as possible from the Magnum Fireplace (Few to no bends) with a maximum length of sixty feet (60’). WARNING: Do not use combustible duct material. Avoid installing a combustion air inlet where the opening could be blocked by snow, bushes or other obstacles. Air inlet must terminate a minimum of three feet below the chimney cap level. Air inlet ducts shall not terminate in attic spaces. 2. Gas Line Feed: For a fireplace having the provision for installation of a gas pipe, the provision is intended only for connection to a decorative gas appliance. CAUTION: When using the decorative appliance, the fireplace damper must be set in the fully open position. Gas line for gas log sets used in the Isokern firebox can be routed through the side wall, back wall or floor of the firebox by drilling an ap- propriately sized hole using a masonry drill bit (Figure 20). 3. Electrical Line Feed can be routed through the MAGNUM firebox back wall, side walls or floor by drilling an appropriately sized hole using a masonry drill bit (Figure 20). Be sure to follow the gas log Ap- pliance Manufacturer’s explicit electrical line connection instructions for vented masonry fireplace installations. Gas line and electric line must be fed through separate access holes. CAUTION: All access holes must be grouted with mortar – after line or conduit feed - to seal any gaps or cracks around line feed conduits (Figure 21).FIGURE 21 FIGURE 20 FIGURE 19 02/17/2021 (NO GAPS) FIRE BRICK FLOOR 1/2" GAP EXPANSION (BUILT FIRST) 1/2" GAP EXPANSION FIRE BRICK FLOOR AND BACK WALL (BUILT FIRST) 19 Assembly Instructions - Fire Brick Installation Fire Brick Installation: The manufacturer requires that the MAGNUM Series fireplace firebox be lined with a minimum one and one- eighth (1-1/8”) thick rated fire brick. The pattern for the fire brick lining is an owner option. Standard N-Type brick mortar is a suitable fire brick mortar for the Standard fireplace and good masonry practices should be followed. All required through-wall accesses (gas and electrical line feeds and combustion air supply access holes) should be drilled before the required fire brick lining is installed. It takes a total of about five gallons of S-Type brick mortar mix (dry measure) to fire brick line a MAGNUM fireplace. Face joints of one quarter inch (1/4”) to three-eights inch (3/8”) give a good appearance to the finished brickwork however, this is just a suggestion and other face joint dimen- sions are also acceptable. Step 1. Wet mop the inside of the MAGNUM fireplace with a damp sponge to remove dust and loose particles from the interior before installing fire brick. Step 2. Start the fire brick at the front edge of the floor of the Isokern firebox, proceeding inward toward the back. HINT: Dip each firebrick into water before applying. Step 3. Next, apply fire brick to the back wall of the unit start- ing at the bottom of the back wall and working upward to the top of the back wall. Step 4. Finally, set the side wall fire brick by starting at the front edge of the unit’s side wall and working inward toward the back wall fire brick. Isokern makes no claims as to the performance of fire brick or fire brick mortar(s). It is typical for heat stress cracks to appear in the fire bricks in wood burning fireplaces. FIGURE 24 FIGURE 23 FIGURE 22 02/17/2021 20 Flush Wall Finish Detail MAGNUM fireplaces are designed to be installed so that the rough front face of the firebox and damper beam project into the room approximately one-half inch (1/2”) beyond the face of the rough framing members that create the room’s wall surface. The MAGNUM smoke dome front sits two and three-fourths inches (2-3/4”) back from the rough face of the firebox and damper beam. This set back dimension allows for one and one-half inch (1-1/2”) framing plus one-half inch (1/2”) thick wall board to pass in front of the smoke dome and at the same time align flush with the room face of the MAGNUM damper beam. Set in this position, framing and wall board are kept to the required eight inches (8”) above the firebox opening top (Figure 25). Important: Do not build a frame wall in front of the MAGNUM firebox and damper beam. (Figure 26) FIGURE 25 FIGURE 26 FRAMING PROTRUDESPAST FIREBOX FRONT DRYWALL FLUSHWITH FIREBOXFRONT 02/17/2021 30 ½” 43” 73 ½” Assembly Instructions - 60” The MAGNUM Model 60 is a custom unit made of standard parts that are cut and fitted together in the field. The following cut and assembly instructions identify the parts by name and by part number, the quantity required, the field cut dimensions for each modified component and the placement of each part in the assembly. Note: At all component placement, be sure to mortar all contact surfaces with Earthcore Mortar. Check for complete sealing of each contact joint while assembly progresses (see “General Isokern Assembly Instructions” on page 14 of this manual for mortar information and instructions). Step 1: Base plate, part M91, two required; All require field cutting. Set the un-cut M91 base plate components on an ap- propriate masonry foundation. Cut one base plate to 30 1/2”. (Figure 22) Set the two pieces so that the line of the grouping is a butt joint. (Figure 23). Set the cut M91 pieces into place. This makes for square ends. The overall length of the base plate assembly should measure 73-1/2” and 28" deep. Step 2: Side wall, part M90, eight pieces required, used “as is”. The fire box side wall components are used without modi- fication. The side wall pieces stack four high on both the left and right hand ends of the base plate arrangement (Figure 24) The stack of four fire box side wall components will be assembled in conjunction with the firebox back wall com- ponents described in the following steps. Step 3: Back wall, part M67, eight pieces required, to be “field modified”. Cut the tongue off one end of each of the four M67 back wall components as shown. After cutting, four of these cut pieces should measure 38 1/2” from the cut end to the shoulder of the un-altered end (Figure 25). The other four cut pieces should measure 22 1/4” from the cut end to the shoulder of the unaltered end. (Figure 26) Step 4: Build the MAGNUM Model 60 firebox by setting a 38 1/2” M67 back wall (from step 3) on the base plate with it’s tongue end interlocked into the firebox side wall at the end of the baseplate. The square cut end of this a 38-1/2” M67 back wall component sits flush with the back of the base plate with its cut end past the centerline in the base plate arrangement (Figure 27). Next set the 22-1/4” cut M67 piece so that its tongue end interlocks with the side wall component at the opposite end of the base plate. The square cut end of the 22-1/4” M67 should make a snug butt joint with the square cut end of the 38-1/2” M67 component (Figure 28). 21 FIGURE 22 FIGURE 23 FIGURE 24 FIGURE 26 FIGURE 25 FIGURE 27 02/17/2021 22 FIGURE 28 Assembly Instructions - 60” (cont.) FIGURE 29 FIGURE 30 FIGURE 31 FIGURE 32 Step 5: Continue stacking the remaining three courses of back wall. Be sure to reverse the positions of the 38-1/2” M67 and the 22-1/4” M67 in each successive course.In this way, the butt joint where the two M67 components meet are staggered from course to course. The overall width dimension at the back of the firebox should be 73-1/2” including the sidewalls. (Figure 29). Step 6: Steel angle 4” x 6” x 5/16”, one required, 73-1/2” long which must span the top of the MAGNUM Model 60 firebox opening. This steel angle sits on top of the uppermost side wall component with the four inch leg in the horizontal po- sition. To avoid a thickness problem with the placement of the steel angle it is necessary to cut a notch in the top Side wall component where the angle is to sit. This notch should be cut approximately 5/16” deep. The notch should start at the front face of the side wall component (at both the left and right hand walls) and run to a point 4” back toward the firebox (Figure 30). The steel angle sits in this notch. The six inch leg of the steel angle is in the vertical position and is to be lo- cated in alignment with the front of the firebox. The ends of the steel angle should not protrude beyond the outer firebox side walls (Figure 30). Mortar between the steel and the notch in the top of the side wall is not needed. Step 7: Damper support (front & rear), Part M69, four required, to be field cut to fit. Bevel cut one end of each of two M69 damper sup- ports to 35-1/2” in length from the long point of the bevel cut to the un-cut square end. (Figure 31). The long point of the bevel cut is to be at the top of the damper Support For best results a 15˚ bevel angle is suggested. Step 8: Bevel cut one end each of two M69 damper sup- ports to 38” with the long point of the bevel at the bottom of the damper support. The bevel angle must be at the same angle – in this case, 15 degrees - to match with the bevel angle of the other damper supports already cut in Step 7 (Figure 32). Step 9: Set the cut damper supports along the front and along the rear of the firebox using one of each of the cut pieces (one with the long point at the top of the piece and one with the long point at the bottom of the piece) together as pairs. The damper support pair at the front of the firebox opening will be mortared together and set into the steel angle from Step 6 (Figure 33). 02/17/2021 23 Assembly Instructions - 60” (cont.) Since the inside corner of the steel angle is rounded, it is a good idea to round the bottom front corner of the damper support to match the steel. With the bevel cut ends of the damper support pairs meeting at the middle of the firebox, the bevel joint should be an even and good fit. The damper supports overall installed length should be 73-1/2”. (Figure 33) Note: Do not join the damper supports with a butt joint. The bevel joint discussed above is the REQUIRED type of joint for the damper support. The bevel angle of 15˚ degrees is a convenient angle and is given as a suggested angle. The angle of the bevel cut could be greater, just so the bevel cut in each damper support joining pair is the same angle in order to have a good fit at the joint. Please consult your local sales representative for the appropriate damper systems for models 60 and 72. Step 10: Damper support (left), part M94L and damper support (right), part M94R, one each required. To be used “as is”.Set the damper support (left) and the damper support (right) into place on top of the firebox side walls in between the front and rear damper supports. Each of the damper supports, right and left, is designed specifically for its own side of the unit. When properly set, each damper plate side piece sits flush with the outside face of the firebox side wall. The interior bot- tom edge of the damper support end pieces aligns with the angle of the interior of the firebox side wall (Figure 33). For the MAGNUM Model 60 the smoke dome components stack two tiers high giving a smoke dome of approximately 32” in height. Step 11: Smoke dome medium, part 11, two required, to be “field modified”; smoke dome large, part 13, six required, to be “field modified”; smoke dome top sloping, part 34, four required, to be used “as is”. Begin building the MAGNUM Model 60 Fire- place smoke dome by cutting the haunch off of one end of each of the two smoke dome large components, part 13. After cutting the bottom length of the piece will be 49 3/4”". (Figure 34) When cutting the haunch off be sure to follow the angle of the sloping end in order to get the proper slope angle to the cut. 73½” FIGURE 33 FIGURE 34 FIGURE 35 FIGURE 38 FIGURE 37 FIGURE 36 02/17/2021 24 FIGURE 39 FIGURE 40 FIGURE 41 Step 12: Cut one end of two of the smoke dome top large, part 13, components at an angle parallel to the opposite end of the piece. The bottom length of the cut piece should measure 23 3/4 ” (Figure 35). Step 13: Place one modified smoke dome large piece (haunch cut off and a bottom length of 49-3/4" together with another of the smoke dome large pieces that was angle cut to 23 3/4" bottom length and parallel angle) together on the damper support and flush with the back wall of the firebox so that the two smoke dome pieces meet along their field modi- fied cut line. The overall length of the two joined smoke dome pieces should be 73-1/2". (Figure 36) Step 14: Repeat STEP 13 on the front damper support. Set the front smoke dome components 2-3/4" back from the front face of the front damper support (Figure 37). Step 15: Fit the top sloping smoke dome side wall components, part 34, in place between the front and back smoke dome arrangements at each end of the smoke dome (Figure 38). Step 16: Continue building the MAGNUM model 60 fireplace smoke dome by cutting two of the smoke dome large pieces, part 13, to a bottom length dimension of 39 3/4”. The slope angle of the cut should match the slope angle of the end being cut. (Figure 39) Place one of the modified smoke dome large pieces (39 3/4” bottom length) on top of and flush with the first tier of smoke dome components at the back of the first course of smoke dome. The haunched, un-cut end of this piece should be flush with the haunch end of the first tier smoke dome below it. (Figure 41) Step 17: Repeat this arrangement at the front of the smoke dome. Step 18: Cut each of the remaining two smoke dome medium pieces, part 11, at an angle cut that is parallel to the un-cut end and so that its bottom length is 23 3/4” (Figure 40). Step 19: Place one of the angle cut smoke dome top medium pieces at the front and one at the back of the first tier smoke dome so that they meet the smoke dome large (cut to 49 3/4” bottom length) already set in Step 11. (Figure 42) Assembly Instructions - 60” (cont.) FIGURE 42 02/17/2021 25 Assembly Instructions - 60” (cont.) Step 20: Set the smoke dome sloping side walls, part 34, in place between the front and back smoke dome arrangements at their proper locations at each end of the smoke dome. (Figure 42). The overall width dimension at the top of the smoke dome should be approximately 53-1/2 to 54”. (Figure 43) Note: The MAGNUM model 60 is designed to operate with two flues. The top of the smoke dome allows for the place- ment of two Isokern Modular Masonry DM 54 (14 inch I.D.) chimneys or two solid fuel listed metal chimneys of the appropriate size. Step 21: Smoke dome top plate small, part M77, two re- quired, must field cut to fit. Each of the two smoke dome top plate small, part M77, will sit side by side on the smoke dome assembly, meet- ing at the centerline of the smoke dome as a butt joint. The top plate, as standard, comes with a recessed edge (or, a thick- ened center). The recessed edge is approximately 3/8”and is intended to be the bottom face of the top plate. Each of the two top plate pieces must first be cut in width in order to fit the overall smoke dome. Each top plate is to have its width cut by 5”. The cut edges must then become the butt joint of the two top plates when set into place (Figure 44). Therefore, the width cuts for each top plate must be on opposite edges of each piece. The un-altered end of each top plate sits at the end of the smoke dome assembly and rests on the smoke dome slop- ing side wall. At the recessed edge on the underside of the un-altered ends of each of the two top plates, the thickened part of the top plate will need to be ground down flush with the recessed edge of the top plate so that the underside of the top plate does not ride high on the smoke dome sloping side wall. Place the two top plate small components on top of the second tier smoke dome arrangement so that they meet at the centerline of the smoke dome. The outlet hole sits closer to the back of the smoke dome. The smoke dome top plates should sit flush with the front and back of the smoke dome. The top width dimension of the completed smoke dome should measure approximately 53 1/2”- 54”. Each top plate small has a width cut dimension of approximately 27”. Two of the top plates butted together should equal the smoke dome top width dimension of approximately 54”. The top plates may have some overhang at the ends of the top plate assembly, which is acceptable. (Figure 45) FIGURE 43 FIGURE 44 FIGURE 45 02/17/2021 Assembly Instructions - 72” The MAGNUM Model 72 is a custom unit made of standard parts that are cut and fitted together in the field. The following cut and assembly instructions identify the parts by name and by part num- ber, the quantity required, the field cut dimensions for each modi- fied component and the placement of each part in the assembly. Note: At all component placement, be sure to mortar all contact surfaces with Earthcore Mortar. Check for complete sealing of each contact joint while assembly progresses (see “General Isokern Assembly Instructions” on page 14 of this manual for mortar infor- mation and instructions). Step 1: Base plate, Part M91, two required . These pieces are used “as is”, without any field cutting required. Set the four M91 base plate components on an appropriate masonry foundation and positioned exactly where the firebox is to sit. Set the two pieces so that the centerline of the grouping is a butt joint (Figure 46). This makes for square ends at both the left and right ends of the grouping. The overall length of the base plate assembly should mea- sure 85 1/2” and 28” inches deep. Step 2: Side wall, part M60, eight pieces required, used “as is”. The firebox side wall components are used without modi- fication. The side wall pieces stack four high on both the left and right hand ends of the base plate arrangement (Figure 47) The stack of four firebox side wall components will be assembled in conjunction with the firebox back wall components described in the following steps. Step 3: Back wall, part M67, eight pieces required, four pieces to be “field modified”. Cut the tongue off one end of each of the four M67 back wall components. After cutting, each of these four cut pieces should measure 38 1/2” from the cut end to the shoulder of the un- altered end (Figure 48). Step 4: Back wall, part M67, four pieces required, to be “field modified”. Cut one end of each of the four M67 back wall compo- nents. These four cut pieces should measure 34-1/2” from the cut end to the shoulder of the un-altered end (Figure 49). Step 5: Build the MAGNUM Model 72 firebox by setting a 38 1/2” M67 Back Wall (from Step 3) on the base plate with its tongue end interlocked into the firebox side wall positioned at the end of the base plate (Figure 50). The square cut end of this 38 1/2” M67 back wall compo- nent should sit flush with the back of the base plate with its cut end past the centerline butt joint in the base plate arrangement (Figure 50). Next set the 34-1/2” inch cut M67 piece so that its tongue end interlocks with the side wall component at the opposite end of the base plate. The square cut end of the 34-1/2” M67 should make a snug butt joint with the square cut end of the 38 1/2” M67 compo- nent (Figure 51). 26 FIGURE 46 FIGURE 47 FIGURE 48 FIGURE 49 34 1 / 2 ” FIGURE 50 02/17/2021 27 Assembly Instructions - 72” (cont.) FIGURE 51 FIGURE 52 FIGURE 53 FIGURE 54 Step 6: Continue stacking the remaining three courses of back wall. Be sure to reverse the positions of the 38 1/2” M67 and the 34-1/2” M67 in each successive course. In this way, the butt joint where the two M67 components meet are staggered from course to course. The overall width dimension at the back of the firebox should be 85 1/2” (Figure 52). Step 7: Steel angle of 4” x 6” x 5/16”, one each required, 85 1/2” long. A 4” x 6” x 5/16” steel angle needs to span the top of the MAGNUM Model 72 firebox opening. This steel angle sits on top of the uppermost side wall component with the four inch leg in the horizontal position. To avoid a thickness problem with the placement of the steel angle it is necessary to cut a notch in the top side wall component where the angle is to sit. This notch should be cut approximately 5/16” deep. The notch should start at the front face of the side wall component (at both the left and right hand walls) and run to a point four inches back toward the firebox (Figure 53). The steel angle sits in this notch. The six inch leg of the steel angle is in the vertical position and is to be located in alignment with the front of the firebox. The ends of the steel angle should not protrude beyond the outer firebox side walls. (Figure 53) Mortar between the steel and the notch in the top of the side wall is not needed. Step 8: Damper support (front & rear), part M69, four required, to be field cut to fit. Bevel cut one end of each of two M69 damper supports to 44” in length from the long point of the bevel cut to the un-cut square end. The long point of the bevel cut is to be at the top of the damper supports (Figure 54). For best results a 15˚ bevel angle is suggested. Step 9: Bevel cut one end each of two M69 damper sup- ports to 41 1/2” with the long point of the bevel at the bottom of the damper support. The bevel angle must be at the same angle in this case, 15˚ - to match with the bevel angle of the other damper supports already cut in Step 8 (Figure 55). Step 10: Set the cut damper supports along the front and along the rear of the firebox using one of each of the cut pieces (one with the long point at the top of the piece and one with the long point at the bottom of the piece) together as pairs. 02/17/2021 49 3 / 4 ” 28 Assembly Instructions - 72” (cont.) The damper support pair at the front of the firebox opening will be set into the 4” x 6” steel angle from Step 7 (Figure 56). Since the inside corner of the steel angle is rounded, it is a good idea to round the bottom front corner of the damper support to match the steel. With the bevel cut ends of the damper support pairs meeting at the middle of the firebox, the bevel joint should be an even and good fit. The damper supports overall installed length should be 85 1/2”. Notes: A. Do not join the damper supports with a butt joint. The bevel joint discussed above is the REQUIRED type of joint for the damper support. B. The bevel angle of 15˚ is a convenient angle and is given as a suggested angle. The angle of bevel could be different just so the angles cut in the adjoining damper supports join. C. The angle of the bevel cut could be greater just so the bevel cut in each damper support joining pair is the same angle in order to have a good fit at the joint. Step 11: Damper support (left), part M64L and damper support (right), part M64R, one each required. To be used “as is”. Set the damper support (left) and the damper support (right) into place on top of the firebox side walls in between the front and rear damper supports. Each of the damper supports, right and left, is designed specifically for its own side of the unit. When properly set, each damper plate side piece sits flush with the outside face of the firebox side wall. The interior bottom edge of the damper sup- port end pieces align with the angle of the interior of the firebox side wall (Figures 56, 57). For the MAGNUM Model 72 the smoke dome com- ponents stack two tiers high giving a smoke dome of approxi- mately 32 inches in height. Step 12: Smoke dome top large, part 13, six required, to be “field modified”; smoke dome top medium, part 11, two re- quired, to be “field modified”; smoke dome top sloping, part 34, four required, to be used “as is”. Begin building the MAGNUM model 72 fireplace smoke dome by cutting the haunch off of one end of each of the four smoke dome top large components, part 13. After cutting the bottom length of the piece will be 49 3/4”. When cutting the haunch off be sure to follow the angle of the sloping end in order to get the proper slope angle to the cut (Figure 58). FIGURE 55 FIGURE 56 FIGURE 57 FIGURE 58 02/17/2021 29 Step 13: Cut one end of the other two smoke dome top big, part 13, components at an angle parallel to the opposite end of the piece. The bottom length of the cut piece should measure 35 3/4” (Figure 59). Step 14: Place one modified smoke dome top big pieces (haunch cut off and a bottom length of 49 3/4” together with one of the smoke dome top big pieces that was angle cut to 35 3/4” bottom length and parallel angle) together on the damper support and flush with the back wall of the firebox so that the two smoke dome pieces meet along their field modified cut line (Figure 60). The overall length of the two joined smoke dome pieces should be 85 1/2”. Step 15: Repeat Step 14 on the front damper support. Set the front smoke dome components 2-3/4” back from the front face of the front damper support (Figure 61). Step 16: Fit the top sloping smoke dome side wall components, part 34, in place between the front and back smoke dome ar- rangements at each end of the smoke dome (Figure 62). Step 17: Place one of the four modified smoke dome top big pieces (haunch cut off and 49 3/4” bottom length) on top of and flush with the first tier of smoke dome components at the back of the first course of smoke dome. The haunched, un-cut end of this piece should be flush with the haunch end of the first tier smoke dome below it (Figure 63). Step 18: Repeat this arrangement at the front of the smoke dome. Step 19: Cut each of the two smoke dome top medium pieces, part 11 at an angle cut that is parallel to the un-cut end and so that its bottom length is 25 1/2” (Figure 65). Step 20: Place one of the angle cut smoke dome top medium pieces at the front and one at the back of the first tier smoke dome so that they meet the smoke dome top big (haunch cut off and 50” bottom length) already set in Steps 14 and 15. The overall width dimension at the top of the smoke dome should be 65-1/2” (Figure 66). Step 21: Fit the top sloping smoke dome side wall components, part 34, in place between the front and back smoke dome ar- rangements at each end of the smoke dome (Figure 67).

Note: The MAGNUM model 72 is designed to operate with two flues. The top of the smoke dome allows for the place- ment of two Isokern DM 54 (14 inch I.D.) chimneys or two solid fuel listed metal chimneys of the appropriate size. Step 22: Top plate small, part M77, two required, to be used “as is”. (Figure 66) Place the two top plate small components on top of the second tier smoke dome arrangement so that they meet at the centerline of the smoke dome. Typically, the outlet hole sits closer to the back of the smoke dome. The top plates should sit flush with the front and back of the smoke dome. (Figure 69). The top width dimension of the completed smoke dome should measure 65-1/2”.( Figure 66) Each top plate small has a width dimension of 32-3/4 inches. Two of the top plates butted together should equal the smoke dome top width dimension of 65-/12”. (Figure 69) The top plates should be flush with the top sides of the smoke dome assembly. Minor overhang (fractions of an inch) of the top plate assembly is acceptable.FIGURE 65 FIGURE 66 FIGURE 67 FIGURE 68 FIGURE 69 FIGURE 64 02/17/2021 31 DM 54 Chimney System - 60 & 72” NOTE: The maximum installed height of the Isokern DM 54 system on the models 60 & 72 dual chimney system is 15’ without additional structural support. 15’-0” 02/17/2021 Combustible sheathing such as plywood and particle board may be used to cover the front face of the MAGNUM smoke dome and be in direct contact with it. If sheathing protrudes in front of the firebox, application of such combustible sheathing must assure that the sheathing is held a minimum of eight inches (8”) away from each side of the MAGNUM opening and a minimum of eight inches (8”) above the top of the MAGNUM opening. (Figure 70 & 71) (9” for models 60 & 72) Do not build a combustible framed wall out in front of the MAGNUM firebox. If sheathing and framing are to be installed across the front face of the MAGNUM smoke dome, then the framing and sheathing must be held a minimum of eight inches (8”) above the top of the MAGNUM firebox opening. This means that framing and sheathing across the smoke dome front must be kept at or above the MAGNUM damper beam.

Installation and use practices that are beyond the control of the manufacturer* can result in situations where clearance re- quirements (as determined through testing and as stated by the manufacturer) are not maintained due to construction subsequent to the installation of the Isokern unit. It is the general contractor’s responsibility to assure that listed clearances to combustible fram- ing and to insulation are maintained throughout the construction of the project subsequent to the installation of the Isokern unit. To avoid causing a fire resulting in damage to property, personal injury or loss of life, do not pack or fill the required air spaces with insulation or other material. No material is allowed in these areas. (Figures 72 & 73) *The manufacturer is not responsible for installation and use practices that are beyond the scope of the product as defined in the product listing and in the installation manual.

MIN. 34 Clearance to Insulation & Vapor Barriers FIGURE 75 The Magnum Series firebox backwall, side walls and the smoke dome back require 1 1/2” clearance. (Figure 74) Keep all insulaion and vapor barriers a minimum 3” away from all Iskern surfaces. (Figure 75) Keep all insulation, vapor barriers, “house wrap” paper and other insulating type membranes and products, including fiber- glass, cellulose and other insulation, a minimum of three inches (3”) away from all MAGNUM surfaces. (Figure 75) When MAGNUM fireplace installations are surrounded by walls that are to be insulated, the walls must have enough clearance to the Isokern unit in order to maintain the three inch (3”) minimum clearance to insulation. (Figure 75) Never spray the MAGNUM fireplace with any type of sealer, insulation or other material. If insulation or vapor barriers are used in walls surrounding the MAGNUM fireplace, it is strongly recommended that the walls be sheathed with gypsum board, plywood, particle board or other material on the side facing the Isokern to assure the insulation and vapor barriers remain in place and a minimum of 3” away from the unit. FIGURE 74 02/17/2021 35 Flush Wall Fire Brick Finish Detail Recommended Fire Brick Detail: When drywall is the wall finish at the MAGNUM face and flush with the rough face of the MAGNUM firebox and damper beam, it is recommended when installing the required fire brick lining to the interior of the firebox, that the leading edge of the fire brick - at the floor and at the side walls of the firebox - be set flush with the MAGNUM’s rough firebox front. This will aid in the overall fit and finish of the MAGNUM fireplace front when the code required noncombustible finished facings are applied. This alignment of fire brick application, as shown above (Figure 76), allows the fire brick lining to be in the same plane with the room’s wall finish surface. With the fire brick set in this fashion the noncombustible finish facing material can be set tight against the leading edge (or, “room edge”) of the fire brick at the sides of the fireplace opening. At the same time the finished facing material can lay flat against the room’s finished wall surface. FIGURE 76 Drywall Flush With Firebox Front Noncombustible Facing Material 02/17/2021 36 Flush Wall Brick Finish Detail Important: Since there is no fire brick set along the top of the MAGNUM’s firebox opening, when setting the noncombustible finished facing material (code required and supplied by others) across the top of the firebox opening there may be a gap between the back of the noncombustible finish material and the rough front face of the MAGNUM damper plate. Be sure to check for and fill any such gap with noncombustible Earthcore Mortar in conjunction with placement of the code required noncombustible finish facing material set across the top of the firebox opening. (Figure 77) WARNING: Avoid false chimneys. Important: Failure to seal any gaps between the front face of the MAGNUM damper plate and the back of the noncombustible finished facing material will create what is known as a “false chimney”. A “false chimney”, in this case, is the narrow gap (mentioned above) between the back of the noncombustible facing material at the top of the firebox opening and the rough front of the MAGNUM damper plate. If left unfilled this gap creates a “false chimney” which can draw smoke, heat and fire out of the fire- box into the space behind the noncombustible finish facing and on up into overhead framed spaces causing a fire hazard.

Special attention is required with regards to: (1) the placement of the proposed masonry veneer facing and its interface with the MAGNUM fire brick lin- ing, and (2) the masonry veneer and clearance to combustible framing and sheathing from any steel “L” support used in the masonry veneer around the front of the MAGNUM unit behind the veneer facing. Any proposed brick, stone or other masonry veneer facing must have sufficient foundation to support the full weight of the veneer work. This may require review by a local structural engineer prior to construction. The veneer facing, when installed, must present a tight seal with the leading edge - the room edge - of the MAGNUM fire brick lining at the sides of the MAGNUM firebox opening. (Figure 83) A steel “L” will need to span the top of the finished fireplace opening to carry the masonry veneer as it spans over the MAGNUM firebox opening. (Figures 80 & 81) By code requirement this steel “L” must have a mini- mum four inch (4”) end bearing. This bearing surface area shall be provided in the veneer work. (Figure 80) It is important that the steel “L” is set tight against the MAGNUM’s damper beam front and set in a mud joint to avoid creating a “false chimney” between the back of the steel “L” and the MAGNUM’s damper beam front. (Figure 81) Steel “L” or “angle” used to support masonry veneer as it spans the MAGNUM’s firebox opening must, in all cases, have a two inch (2”) minimum clearance to all combus- tible materials. The vertical leg of the steel “L” cannot exceed six inches (6”) in height. Note: Properly placed combustible sheathing is kept a mini- mum of eight inches (8”) away from the MAGNUM firebox opening sides and top. Important: Combustible framing members, normally set at one and one-half inch (1-1/2”) clearance to the sides of the MAGNUM firebox must be moved to at least two inch (2”) clearance to the firebox sidewalls to maintain minimum two inch (2”) clearance to the steel “L” to avoid a potential fire hazard. Moving framing members two inches (2”) away from the firebox side walls will maintain the minimum re- quired two inch (2”) clearance from the steel “L” and, at the same time allow full four inch (4”) end bearing required for the steel “L”.

Suitable hearth extension material for the MAGNUM fireplace shall be placed on the hearth extension’s noncombustible substrate and must extend to at least twenty inches (20”) in front of the fireplace’s finished opening and must extend to at least twelve inches (12”) beyond the sides of the finished fireplace opening. (Figure 83) WARNING: The noncombustible hearth extension, by code, must sit on noncombustible substrate which shall have no wood underpinnings. This means that off-grade wood floor systems shall be constructed in such a way that all wood floor joists and sub- flooring shall stop twenty inches (20”) out from the front of the MAGNUM firebox. (Figure 82) Mantle and Mantle Shelf Clearances: Magnum fireplaces are subject to the same building code safety clearances to combus- tible trim as with any radiant heat fireplace. All combustible trim shall be kept at least eight inches (8”) from the finished fireplace opening. Combustible trim located along the sides of the fireplace opening, which project more than one and one-half inches (1-1/2”) from the face of the fireplace, shall have additional clearance from the eight inches (8”) equal to the projection. Combustible projecting mantles - up to twelve inches (12”) of projection - shall not be placed less than fouteen inches (14”) from the top of the fireplace opening. Combustible mantles which project more than twelve inches (12”) from the face of the fireplace, shall have additional clear- ance from the fourteen inches (14”) equal to the projection. Note: The local authority having jurisdiction may require greater clearances for projection combustible mantle shelves. Be sure to check local building codes regarding required clearances to projecting combustible mantles. Adjoining Walls. Side walls and walls to rooms adjoining MAGNUM fireplace installations cannot be closer than twenty-six inches (26”) to the finished fireplace opening. (Figure 83) Note: “Clearance to Combustible Trim” are those distances required to ensure that a fireplace mantle or facing will not catch fire. In most cases the distances should also be adequate to prevent any discoloration or warping due to heat. However each installation presents a unique and completely different set of circumstances involving many variables. These include paint or finish composition, previous exposure to heat, methods and quality of construction, air flow patterns, etc. Because of these variables, the manufacturer does not guarantee that heat warping or discoloration will never occur. 39 FIGURE 82 FIGURE 83 02/17/2021 40 FIGURE 84 FIGURE 85 FIGURE 86 The MAGNUM fireplace is not rated for installation on a com- bustible floor system unless used in the Fire-Lite application (see Pages 60 - 69). MAGNUM fireplaces must be built upon a concrete support slab with no wood underpinnings. Proper reinforced concrete support slab for MAGNUM installations may include the following types: 1. Slab on grade: standard residential, minimum four inch (4”) thick, 2500 psi concrete foundations on properly compacted fill. This type foundation can support Isokern installations up to thirty feet (30’) overall height (brickledge installations not included). (Figure 84) 2. Slab-on-grade foundations, thickened and reinforced: for additional load carrying. (Figure 85) 3. Off-grade slab on foundation walls and footings. Projects with off-grade floor systems as well as upper story installations require this type of support. (Figure 86) When building off-grade support slabs the code required hearth extension substrate should be built as a continuation of the support slab for the MAGNUM unit. (Figure 86) Supports for off grade slabs must be concrete or steel and ca- pable of supporting the slab, Isokern unit and the chimney. For multi-floor and back-to-back installations proper weight computation on an individual basis is required. Consult local structural engineer for load bearing requirements. Important: Foundations and footings must meet local code and be approved by the local building authority. For any foundation design and load requirements check with local structural engineer. It is the responsi- bility of the General contractor to insure adequate foundations. MAGNUM fireplace weights and “foot print” areas: The total fireplace weight for each MAGNUM model listed below includes: MAGNUM unit pumice parts only: A. Model MAGNUM 28: 1040 lbs. B. Model MAGNUM 36: 1300 lbs. C. Model MAGNUM 42: 1420 lbs. D. Model MAGNUM 48: 1600 lbs. Totals are exclusive of any chimney components. See page 43 for Isokern DM chimney component weights. The “footprint” area for each model is as follows: A. Model MAGNUM 48 @ 35.5” x 28” = 6.90 sq. ft. B. Model MAGNUM 36 @ 43” x 28” = 8.36 sq. ft. C. Model MAGNUM 42 @ 49” x 28” = 9.52 sq. ft. D. Model MAGNUM 48 @ 53” x 28” = 10.3 sq. ft. “Footprint” areas listed above are base plate dimensions for each model and are exclusive of code required hearth extension areas. See page 39 for hearth extension dimensions. Note: Additional support slab area may be required at the side or back of the MAGNUM unit to provide bearing for structural supports to a DM 54 offset chimney sequence. (See pages 47 - 50 for offset chimney support requirements.) Concrete Support 02/17/2021 41 DM 54 Chimney System: General Information The DM 54 chimney is a dual module, refractory masonry chimney system. It is composed of two precast, mating components, the outer casing block and an inner liner. General Information: This chimney system is designed for installation in accordance with the National Fire Protection Standard for Chimneys and Solid Fuel-Burning Appliances, NFPA 211 and in accordance with codes such as ICC, BOCA Basic/National Codes, the standard Mechani- cal Code and the Uniform Building Codes. Note: Illustrations shown reflect “typical” installations with nominal dimensions and are for design and framing reference only. Always maintain minimum required clearances to combustible materials and do not violate any specific installation requirements. Required DM 54 Chimney Clearance: The DM 54 chimney system, rated UL 103HT, is listed for zero clearance to normal construction materials. The DM 54 chimney system may be enclosed in a wood chimney chase at zero clearance to wood framing members. Note: A firestop is required wherever a chimney passes between one zone of a building to another. Ex: When the chimney passes through the ceiling into the attic area, there must be a sealed area around the chim- ney so there isn’t a chaseway for a fire to get to the attic. Since lateral support is required for DM 54 chimneys the framing members will be in contact with the DM 54 chimney system. Important: “Combustibles” are defined as “normal construction materials” and are considered to be: framing materials, particle board, mill board, drywall, plywood paneling, plywood sub flooring, and wood flooring. WARNING: Keep all insulation minimum of three inches (3”) away from all DM 54 chimney components. Failure to use manufacture’s provided parts or variations in techniques and construction materials or practices other than those described in this manual may create a fire hazard and void the limited warranty. Mechanical Vent Systems: It is acceptable to use mechanical draft systems, if the venting companies do the engineering calculations and make the necessary recommendations for fan size and flue vent diameter following the guidelines of NFPA 211/2006, pg. 211-13. Installation of such systems must also follow the mechanical drafting company’s explicit installation and operation instructions. 02/17/2021 DM 54 Chimney Component List & Dimensions 42 21 ½” 11” 16 ½ ” 16 ½ ” 21 ½ ” 6” 21 ½ ” 14” 12” 14” 12” 25” 6” 3” 3” 26 ¼ ” 3” 26 ¼” 37 ½ ” 3” 37 ½” 31 ½ ” 3” 31 ½” 1 ¼” 1 ¼”Small Crown Cap Large Crown Cap Brickledge 6” High Inner Liner 12” High Inner Liner Outer Casing Offset Block Offset Block 02/17/2021 BRICKLEDGE BLOCK OFFSET CASING OUTER LINER INNER CROWN CAP LARGE CROWN CAP SMALL 43 DM 54 Chimney: Component Weights Isokern DM Chimney Weights: Total installed Isokern DM chimney weight will vary ac- cording to each specific installation. Total installed chimney weight will be based on the overall height and the configuration of the chimney system. Chimneys may be straight vertical stacks of DM 54 outer casing and inner liner but may also include the use of offset chimney blocks, brickledge, chimney reinforcement, brick/stone veneers, cement crown caps and clay chimney pot termination. The DM 54 chimney component weights are as follows: Small crown cap: 80 lb. Large crown cap: 100 lb. Brickledge: 110 lb. 14” diameter inner liner: 40 lb. Outer casing block: 90 lb. Offset block*: 110 lb. *Construction of an offset block sequence will shift a portion, if not all of the chimney load off of the firebox and smoke dome. Additional reinforced concrete footing and slab area may need to be provided adjacent to or as a continuation of the primary support slab area for bearing the steel or masonry support required for an offset sequence. (See pages 47 - 50 following.) Notes: Plan chimney configuration carefully before construct- ing the required reinforced concrete support foundation for the MAGNUM fireplace. Be sure that enough structural masonry area is available to support any offset chimney sequence included in the proposed chimney design. Isokern is not responsible for site specific structural sup- port details and load specifications for MAGNUM fireplace and DM chimney system installations. Consult local structural engineer for proper job-specific support structure design, sizing and load bearing specifications. Unless otherwise noted, all floor drawings in this manual are merely illustrations to indicate the presence of an underlying noncombustible support structure to the MAGNUM installation. 02/17/2021 INNER LINER STARTER 6" HIGH 12" HIGH INNER LINER OUTER CASING 3 3/4 " DM 54 Chimney System: Installation Instructions 44 DM 54 Chimney Alignment: Where the chimney run is to be a straight vertical run the DM 54 outer casing block sits directly onto the Isokern smoke dome lid. The DM 54 outer casing block, properly set is intended to be flush with the back face of the firebox smoke dome assembly (Figures 89 and 90 ). Set in this way the DM 54 outer casing block will sit three and three fourths inches (3-3/4”) back from the front face of the smoke dome. (Figure 89). This total set-back distance makes it possible for a three and one-half inches (3-1/2”) thick bearing header to pass over the MAGNUM firebox smoke dome assembly and for the DM 54 chimney to run straight up the back side of the bearing header (Figure 91). Installation of the DM 54 chimney: Begin straight DM 54 chimney runs by setting a DM 54 outer casing block in a bed of mortar on top of the MAGNUM smoke dome lid with the outer casing block centered on the lid from side to side and flush with the back of the smoke dome lid. Be sure that the outer casing block aligns with the flue hole in the smoke dome lid. Next set the DM 54 inner liner’s six inch (6”) tall starter piece (Figure 89) inside the first outer casing block. The “factory” version of the six inch (6”) tall inner liner starter piece has a female end and a flat end. Set this inner liner starter with the flat end down. Set the downward end into Earthcore Mortar so that it is fully sealed to the smoke dome lid. WARNING: Do not mortar the air space between the liners and the outer casing blocks. Starting with the six inch (6”) tall inner liner starter piece creates six inch (6”) staggered horizontal joints between the inner liner and the outer casing block. Both the outer casing block and the inner liner com- ponents have tongue and groove type detailing on each end to assure alignment and interlock of the pieces as they are stacked and glued together. Notes: If the “factory” inner liner starter piece is broken or otherwise unavailable then a full twelve inch (12”) tall inner liner piece can be cut to six inches (6”) in height to make an inner liner starter piece. DM 54 chimney inner liners can be stacked with either the male or the female end up. In either case start the inner liner stack with a six inch (6”) starter piece. FIGURE 91 FIGURE 90 FIGURE 89 FIGURE 88 FIGURE 87 02/17/2021 DM 54 Chimney System: Lateral Support CAUTION: Maintain three inch (3”) minimum clearance to insulation from all DM 54 chimney component surfaces. After setting the DM 54 inner liner starter piece, apply mortar to the top of the starter liner. Continue the straight chim- ney run by placing a full height inner liner onto the six inch (6”) starter liner. The top of this full height inner liner will sit 6” above the top of the outer casing block that was previously set. This six inch (6”) offset between joints of the inner liner stack and the joints of the outer casing stack continues to the top of the chimney run. Continue the straight vertical DM 54 chimney by set- ting an outer casing block onto the mortared top surface of the preceding outer casing. The grooves on the bottom end of the upper outer casing block fit onto the tongues on the top of the lower outer casing block. This assures proper alignment of the two components. Next place a full height inner liner onto the mortared top end of the previously set inner liner. Proceed this alter- nate stacking of outer casing blocks and inner liners until the desired height of the flue is attained. Mortar all outer casing blocks together and mortar all inner lin- ers together. Do not mortar the space between the outer casing and the liner. Lateral Support for DM 54 Chimneys: Where the DM 54 chimney is built up along an exteri- or wall the vertical chimney system should be connected to the structural wall system at a minimum of four foot (4’) intervals. This connection can be made using 18 gauge strap ties (Simpson Strong Tie CS coil strap, or equal). Starting on one side of the DM 54 chimney, at four foot (4’) intervals up the structural wall adjoining the chim- ney, connect one 18 gauage strap tie to the structural wall with two, three inch (3”) #8 (minimum) wood screws or masonry anchors, as appropriate. Next fold the strap around the three exposed sides of the DM 54. Connect the strap to each of the three DM 54 faces with two, one and one-half inch (1-1/2”) long masonry anchors, such as “Tapcon” or “Titen” screws. Fasten the strap back to the structural wall with two three inch (3”) # 8 (minimum) wood screws or masonry screws, as appropriate. (Figure 92) Where DM 54 chimneys are built up from the interior walls the DM 54 chimney outer casing block is to be laterally braced at ceiling and roof penetrations. Pressure treated two inch (2”) by four inch (4”) blocks, set at each side of the flue between the trusses or rafters and fastened to the pre-engineered roof trusses or rafters with two 16d common nails at each end, provides lateral support, parallel with the framing. Additionally, a two inch (2”) by four inch (4”) by six feet (6’) minimum pressure treated member (“rat run”) installed on each side of and butted up to the outer casing block will provide lateral support perpendicular to the direction of the truss or rafter framing system. Fasten the perpendicular member with two 16d com- mon nails to each intersecting truss or rafter. The perpendicular bracing should be installed on the top side the ceiling level framing as well as on the bottom side of the rafters. (Figure 93) Note: A firestop is required wherever a chimney passes be- tween one zone of a building to another. Ex: When the chim- neypasses through the ceiling into the attic area, there must be a sealed area around the chimney so there isn’t a chaseway for a fire to get to the attic. 45 02/17/2021 46 DM 54 Chimney System: Lateral Support (cont.) FIGURE 92 FIGURE 93 02/17/2021 3" 47 DM 54 Chimney System: Offset Block DM 54 Offset Chimney Block: For vertical DM 54 chimney to bypass overhead obstructions, the Isokern offset chimney block is used. Offset blocks are six inch (6”) thick, single module chimney components, measuring twenty-one and one-half inch (21-1/2”) wide by twenty-five inches (25”) long. The fourteen inch hole passes through the block at thirty (30°) degrees. An offset chimney block can be set as the first flue component on top of the MAGNUM smoke dome. When building offset sequences it is necessary to support the third offset block in the sequence and every third offset block thereaf- ter. When using only one or two offset blocks no additional support is required. Offset sequences are best when built as low as possible in the chimney run to maximize performance. Do not make support columns of brick, stone or wood. All support col- umns must bear onto proper noncombustible foundations. Isokern Offset Chimney Block Installation: Isokern offset chimney blocks are stacked in a stair step fash- ion with each successive block overhanging the previous offset block by three inches (3”), allowing the flue to rise at an angle of thirty (30°) degrees off of vertical. (Figure 94) When building offset sequences check the interior flue alignment as each offset block is set to avoid creating overhanging ledges on the inside of the flue. Such internal overhangs will inhibit flue drafting. Each offset block is to be set fully in a bed of Earthcore Mortar, completely sealing each offset block to the underlying component. Offset chimney block sequences can be built to shift the chimney run to the left, right or to the rear of the firebox/smoke dome assembly. Offset blocks can be set in a spiraling rotation, thus moving the chimney to a point that is diagonally away from its starting point. Offsets to the Left or Right: When offsetting chimneys to the left or right of the firebox it is not pos- sible to build a support column directly under the third offset block. To create proper support, construct a support column against the firebox from bearing up to the level of the smoke dome. Bridge from the column over to bearing on the smoke dome with two pieces of four inch (4”) by four inch (4”) by five-eighths inch (5/8”) steel angle. (Figure 95) On the steel angles build a masonry or steel support column up to the underside of the third offset block in the sequence. (Figure 95) NOTE: For offset chimney block sequences that clear the side wall of the firebox below, it is allowable to support the first offset block that clears the the firebox side wall and then to proceed with sup- ports at each third offset block thereafter. (Figure 96) FIGURE 94 FIGURE 95 FIGURE 96 02/17/2021 48 DM 54 Chimney System: Offset Block (cont.) With straight chimneys the front of the DM 54 outer casing block sits approximately three and three-quarters inch (3- 3/4”) back from the front of the smoke dome. This allows for a nominal 4” thick wall to be flush with the room side face of smoke dome assembly while the DM 54 chimney passes up the backside of the wall. For a nominal 2” by 6” wall thickness the chimney can be offset 3” rearward. Set the first DM 54 outer casing block flush to the back end of this offset block. This will leave a distance of 6-3/4” from the face of the MAGNUM firebox smoke dome assembly to the face of the DM 54 outer casing block. This allows for the smoke dome to sit flush with the inside face of the 2” by 6” wall and the straight chimney to run up the outside of the wall. (Figure 97). For a wall thickness of 9”, nominal 8” CMU plus 1-1/2” furring strip - first set two offset chimney blocks in sequence, rearward. This leaves a distance of 9-3/4” from the front face of the smoke dome to the front face of the DM 54 outer casing once the outer casing block is set in position. (Figure 99) Greater offset distances can be accomplished by building with more offset chimney blocks. (Figure 98) FIGURE 97 FIGURE 98 02/17/2021 49 DM 54 Chimney System: Offset Block (cont.) Offset block Support Foundations: It is required that every third Isokern offset chimney block in the sequence be supported down to footings via concrete block or steel support columns. Plan fireplace and DM 54 chimney systems carefully before foundations are laid to assure that proper footings are available to support Isokern offset blocks chimney run. To calculate the distance of Isokern offset chimney travel in a straight line to the right, left or to the rear of the firebox/smoke dome assembly, proceed as follows: Refer to Figure 90: temporarily dry set a DM 54 outer casing block in its proper location on top of the completed firebox/smoke dome assembly as though starting a straight chimney. If the offset sequence is to move to the left then, starting from the right side of the temporary DM 54 outer casing measure left ward to the far face of the overhead obstruction that needs to be bypassed by the vertical chimney run. For accurate measuring drop a plumb line down from the far face of overhead obstruction to the level of the top of the smoke dome assembly. Measure from the far side of the temporary DM 54 outer casing to the plumb line. This measurement, taken in inches and divided by three (three inches of horizontal travel per offset block) gives the total num- ber of offset blocks needed to accomplish the required travel distance. To calculate the height that the offset block sequence will require, take the total number of offset blocks needed to accomplish the travel distance (described above) multiplied by 6”. This number is the height (inches) that the offset sequence will require. When establishing the “far face” of the overhead obstruction, be sure that the DM 54 chimney blocks can run straight to chimney termination without further overhead obstruction since a second offset sequence is not allowed. (Figure 101) Be sure that there is sufficient space beyond the “far face” of the overhead obstruction to accept the DM 54 chimney’s outer casing dimension of 21 1/2”. Support all offset sequences down to bearing as previously discussed on page 47. FIGURE 99 02/17/2021 OBSTRUCTION OVERHEAD PLUMBLINE TRAVEL DISTANCE MEASURE DISTANCE TRAVEL 50 DM 54 Chimney System: Offset Block (cont.) Notes: Always support the last offset block in a sequence for full support of the DM 54 chimney where it returns to vertical. Support columns often carry the majority of the total load of the vertical chimney that is set onto the last offset block. The total chimney weight above the last offset block will be the total weight of the vertical chimney plus any ad- ditional allowable loads such as the Isokern brickledge, its related brick or stone veneers, and any crown caps, clay pots or other masonry chimney terminations. Be sure the foundation under all support columns is made of concrete or steel and designed to support the loads applied to it. Check with local codes and a structural engineer to confirm loading and foundation requirements. Chimney runs are limited to one offset sequence per chimney system. Maximum horizontal distance of offset is six feet (6’) and represents twenty-four offset blocks in sequence. By code the maximum angle of offset for chimney system is 30° off of vertical. DM 54 Brick Ledge: The DM 54 brickledge is a 3” thick, 32-1/2” square, steel reinforced, concrete and pumice slab (Figure 102). It provides a 5” ledge at all four sides of the outer casing block and is designed to support masonry veneers to DM 54 chimneys starting below the rafters and continuing to termi- nation. (Figure 103) The component is cast with an octagonal hole in its center so that the DM 54 octagonal inner liner can pass through it. The brickledge has four 2-1/2” holes through it that align with the hole in each of the four corners of the DM 54 outer casing block. These four holes are provided for reinforcement of the chimney stack by the insertion of #4, minimum, steel reinforcing rods and subsequent grouting. (Figure 104) The brickledge is intended for use in chimneys that rise through the roof only where all four sides of the chimney are bounded by the roof. WARNING: To maintain structural performance the DM 54 brickledge must not be cut or altered in any way. FIGURE 100 FIGURE 101 02/17/2021 BRICK LEDGE 51 DM 54 Chimney System: Brick Ledge Installation DM 54 Brick Ledge Installation: Use of the brickledge will require a roof framing rough opening of at least 34” in width. The required opening dimension along the length of the rafter, where the chimney is to penetrate the roof line, will increase above 34” relative to the pitch of the roof. As the DM 54 outer casing and inner liner assembly ap- proaches the roof penetration set an outer casing block to a level of approximately 6” below the low side of the roof framing. (Figure 105) The alignment tongues on the top of this outer casing block must be ground off to leave a flat contact surface for the brickledge. Temporarily leave out the inner liner that fits this outer casing block. Set the Isokern brickledge onto the flat top surface of the outer casing in a full bed of Earthcore Mortar. Be sure to align the four 2-1/2” holes in the brickledge with the matching holes in the outer casing block below it. Return to setting the next inner liner in the sequence. This inner liner comes up from below and passes through the octagonal hole in the brickledge. The liner’s top end will be approximately 3” above the top surface of the brickledge. Set the next outer casing block onto the top of the brickledge in a bed of Earthcore Mortar. Insert one piece of #4 (minimum) steel reinforcing rod into each of the four 2-1/2” holes in the brickledge. The reinforcement rods must start from a depth of at least 18” below the bottom of the brickledge. (In some cases, a minimum reccommendation could be 5’) Consult local structural engineer for proper job-specific support structure design, sizing and load bearing specifications. If short lengths of steel rods are used be sure to properly lap and wire tie all splices in the rebar. As the reinforcing progress- es, completely fill the holes with grout. Suitable grout can be a pour- able mixture of Portland cement and sand or Portland cement, sand and pea gravel. The rebar must be fully embedded in grout. Leave enough of the #4 steel reinforcing rod exposed above the brickledge so that as the stacking of outer casing blocks continues to termination the reinforcing rods and grout can continue through the stack. Reinforcing shall continue to chimney termina- tion. All DM 54 chimneys that include the DM 54 brickledge must be reinforced as described above. CAUTION: When using the Isokern brickledge it is required that the MAGNUM firebox/smoke dome assembly include the place- ment of a 4” by 4” by 3/8” minimum steel angle across the firebox opening. (See page 55 for “Structural Information” for details regarding specification and placement of steel angles in MAGNUM fireplaces.) Lateral Support for Isokern Brickledge Chimneys: Once the DM 54 chimney and brickledge are assembled and after the intended masonry veneer has been installed on the brickledge, be sure to brace the chimney following the guidelines on page 45 of this manual for Lateral Support of DM 54 chimneys. FIGURE 102 FIGURE 103 FIGURE 104 02/17/2021 DM 54 Chimney System: Load Capacity - Brick Ledge 52 FIGURE 105 It is relatively simple to calculate the total physical load on the brickledge resulting from the physical weight of applied veneers built to code height, however, calculation val- ues for load to the brickledge due to wind are site specific and based on local variables such as wind speed zone, exposure classification, eave height and roof pitch of the structure, as well as height of chimney mass exposed to wind. Important: The total load delivered into the brickledge is job specific and will be the sum of: (1) the physical load from veneers, plus (2) the load due to wind. The total of physical load and load due to wind must not exceed ninety four hundred (9400) pounds. Notes: Calculation of wind load requires the services of a local structural engineer who can evaluate wind load for the specific structure and site in question. Do not subject the brickledge to unequal loading when applying veneers. Build veneers equally on all four sides of the brickledge. Brickledge Veneer Finish and Flashing Details: When applying brick, stone or other masonry veneer to the Isokern brickledge standard good building practices for masonry veneer work should govern weather-proofing details and the placement of flashings. A typical flashing detail would be to field fabricate an aluminum or galvanized sheet metal flashing, approximately thirty-two inches (32”)square with a twenty inch (20”) square hole in it, to serve as an inner flashing. (Figure 106) Place the inner flashing on the first DM 54 outer cas- ing block that fully clears the roof line. Keep the flashing to about a one-half inch (1/2”) lap onto the top of the outer casing block. The twenty inch (20”) square hole in the flashing should fit to the outside of the alignment grooves on top of the DM 54 outer casing. Continue the DM 54 chimney up to the required termination height. Once the masonry veneer is in progress the inner flashing is set into a horizontal joint in the veneer at a level above all other roof deck flashings, chimney-to-roof flashings and counter flashings. Weep holes should open to the outer face of the veneer at vertical mortar joints located at the level of the inner flashing. (Figure 107) Where moisture may develop between the DM 54 outer casing and the chimney veneer, inner flashings as described above will help to divert such moisture to exterior face of the veneer by way of the weep holes and thereby keep such moisture from working its way down between the veneer facing and the DM 54 outer casing and into the interior of the structure below. Load Capacity for DM 54 Brickledge: The sources of load delivered into the Isokern brick- ledge are: (1) the total physical load of brick, stone or other masonry veneer on the brickledge, and (2) loading due to the force of wind delivered against the ex- posed height of the chimney mass. The required height of any chimney is governed by applicable local building codes. The overall finished height of any chimney varies based upon site-specific conditions (eg. elevation of roof line, roof pitch, distance of the chimney from the ridge, etc.). ISOKERN BRICK LEDGE 02/17/2021 LARGE CROWN CAP SMALL CROWN CAP FLASHING INNER 53 DM 54 Chimney System: Crown Caps DM 54 Small Crown Cap (Figure 108) The DM 54 small crown cap is a prefabricated cement weather cap that measures 26- 1/2” square and 3” thick. The small crown cap is designed and installed the same as the large crown cap. The small crown cap is intended for use where DM 54 chimneys are to receive thin veneers and cultured stone that do not require the installation of the Isokern brickledge. The small crown cap is also suitable where DM 54 chimneys are to receive a stucco finish. Other chimney terminations are possible with DM 54 chimneys. Check local codes for use of custom chimney termi- nations and decorative shrouds. DM 54 Large Crown Cap (Figure 109) The DM 54 large crown cap is a prefabricated cement weather cap for masonry veneer chimneys. The large crown cap measures 37-1/2” square and is 3” thick at its center. The component has an octagonal hole at its center so that the top inner liner of the DM 54 chimney stack can pass through it. The crown cap then sits on the top most DM 54 outer casing block. To set the large crown cap the last inner liner should be at least 3” above the last outer casing block in the chimney stack. Mortar the top of the last outer casing block. Set the large crown cap over the inner liner and onto the top of the last outer casing in the stack. Caulk or mortar the joint between the octagonal liner and the crown cap where the liner comes through the top sur- face of the large crown cap.

ROOF RIDGE WORK POINT CRICKET CHIMNEY SECTION THRU ROOF LESS THAN 10'-0" 10'-0" 2' - 0 " 3' - 0 " M I N I M U M WORK POINT CRICKETSECTION THRU ROOF CHIMNEY 54 DM 54 Chimney System: Height Requirements Chimney Height Requirement: The required minimum chimney height above the roof and adjacent walls and buildings is specified by all major build- ing codes and is summed up in what is known as “the 2 foot in 10 foot rule”: (1) If the horizontal distance from the roof ridge to the opening of the chimney is less than 10’, the top of the chimney must be at least 2’ above the roof ridge (Figure 110). (2) If the horizontal distance from the opening of the chimney to the roof ridge is more than 10’ then a chimney height “work point” is established on the roof surface 10’ horizontally from the opening of the chimney. The top of the chimney must be at least 2’ above this work point (Figure 111). (3) In all cases, the chimney cannot be less than 3’ above the roof at the edge of the chimney (Figure 112 & 113). A simple example of this would be if the roof is flat then the chimney would need to be at least 3’ above the roof surface. Or, if the chimney penetrates the roof at the ridge then the chimney must be at least 3’ above the ridge. (Figure 114) Note: The “2 foot in 10 foot rule” is necessary in the interest of fire safety but does not ensure smoke-free operation of the fireplace. Trees, buildings, adjoining roof lines, adverse wind conditions, etc. may require a taller chimney for the fireplace to draft properly. Chase Enclosures: DM 54 chimneys can be enclosed within a wood framed chase at zero clearance to wood framing members. Chase enclosures need to be built to local wind load require- ments and shall be structurally independent of the Isokern chim- ney. As with all chimney installations, avoid overhead obstruc- tions such as trees, power lines, etc. CAUTION: If insulation is used in chase walls the fireplace and chimney must not be placed directly against it and must be kept a minimum 3” from all fireplace and chimney components. It is recommended that where fireplace and chimney chases are insulated or have vapor barriers that the inside face of the chase first be covered with gypsum board, plywood, particle board or other sheathing material to assure that insulation and vapor bar- riers remain in place and a minimum 3” away from the unit. WARNING: Do not pack insulation around the Standard fire- place or chimney. Do not insulate the chase cavity with blown or loose-fill type insulation materials. Chase Top Flashings: Non-combustible, weather tight chase flashing must be used to cover the top of the chimney chase. Be sure to seal the joint where the DM 54 liner passes through the chase top flash- ing for positive weather seal. Chase flashings may be supplied by others. FIGURE 110 FIGURE 111 FIGURE 112 02/17/2021 55 Structural Information The MAGNUM firebox/smoke dome assembly has a load capacity that allows for the fireplace system to carry a limited amount of straight, vertical DM 54 chimney sections. The load capacity for each model, stated as maximum DM 54 chimney heights, are as follows: MAGNUM Model 36: Max. 57 feet of DM 54 MAGNUM Model 42: Max. 64 feet of DM 54 MAGNUM Model 48: Max. 72 feet of DM 54 These chimney heights are for straight chimneys (no offsets) and are exclusive of brickledge. Important: DM 54 chimneys taller than the above listed maximum heights require a steel angle (minimum of 4” x 4” x 3/8”) be set across the MAGNUM firebox opening when assembling the unit as a structural lintel. This steel lintel shall span the MAGNUM firebox opening, bearing fully on the front 4 inches of the firebox side wall components. The vertical leg of the angle steel lintel should turn up and sit in front of the MAGNUM damper plate component. (Figures 113 & 114) Important: The application of the steel angle as described above is also required in all MAGNUM installations where the brickledge is used. This required steel lintel placement is in addition to the reinforcing required for DM 54 chimneys with brickledge as described on page 50. Important: For DM 54 chimneys with both offsets and a brickledge it is important to fully support the last offset block where the chimney returns to vertical. This is required in order to provide complete vertical support for the brickledge and its related loads. Important: When placing steel angles or any other steel sup- port members into the MAGNUM fireplace structure maintain a 2” minimum air space around steel members for clearance to combustible members and combustible surfaces. FIGURE 114 FIGURE 115 FIGURE 113 FRONT DAMPER SUPPORT CAST IRON DAMPER PARTS SMOKEDOMEEND FRONT REAR END STEEL ANGLE 02/17/2021 56 Common Chimney Terminations Two chimney terminations are offered by Isokern, the DM 54 large crown cap and the DM 54 small crown caps. These are cement crown caps designed to provide a weather cap to the DM 54 chimney system. Their design is typical of the cement caps found on traditional masonry chimneys. Due to owner preference and architectural design criteria other chimney terminations can be used alone or in conjunction with the crown caps. Special design caps may be designed and constructed by others and must be fashioned so as not to restrict the flow of smoke and gasses out the top of the flue opening. Figure 116 depicts common chimney termi- nations. Check with local building codes to establish the need for chim- ney caps and spark arrestors or for any limitations to their design and use. FIGURE 116 02/17/2021 TOP PLATE SMOKE DOME INSWOOL BLANKET ANCHOR PLATE Class A Metal Flue MAGNUM fireplaces are tested and listed for use with factory-built metal, Class “A” (solid fuel) chimneys as an option. Any Class “A” or UL 103 listed metal chimney system is accetable for use on an Isokern system. (Figure 117) Class “A” Metal Flue Types: The selected factory-built metal chimney for use with the fireplaces, at a minimum, must be listed by a recognized agency for solid fuel and as tested to UL 103, for continuous use of one thousand degrees (1000°) Fahrenheit and intermittent use of seventeen hundred degrees (1700°) Fahrenheit. The factory-built metal flue design can be from the following types: 1. Non-insulated completely thermal siphoning, double-wall, air-cooled solid fuel rated chimneys listed to UL 103, ULC S629. 2. Double-wall with solid-pack insulation. 3. A combination of double-wall, solid-pack insulation and air space (triple-wall). 4. Triple-wall air space solid fuel chimney. 5. Listed chimney liners conforming with the seventeen hundred degree (1700°) Fahrenheit requirements of UL 1777 or ULCS635 or ULC640 may also be used with Isokern fireplaces. Notes: The selected, approved chimney manufacturer must pro- vide the masonry anchor plate designed to fit their flue system. (Figure 118) All chimneys and chimney liners must be installed in accordance with the manufacturer’s installation instructions and under the terms of their listing for use with open faced fireplaces. Minimum flue size for the Magnum fireplace is twelve and three-quarter inches (12-3/4”) inside diameter. Maximum height of a metal flue system is not required as all the load can be taken off the firebox. FIGURE 117 FIGURE 118 FIGURE 119 FIGURE 120 57 02/17/2021 58 Specialty Applications - Two Story Stacked Installations General Information: To install one MAGNUM fireplace and DM 54 chim- ney system above another, as in a two story stacked installa- tion, both the upper and lower fireplace installations require a concrete slab that is supported down to footings via concrete or steel support structure. Frequently in two story stacked installations the lower unit is supported by a slab-on-grade (as in a basement), whereas the upper unit is a typical off-grade support slab. The off-grade slab for the upper unit must be built with suf- ficient width in order to accommodate the width of the upper fireplace plus the width of the by-passing chimney system rising from the lower unit. (Figure 121) The slab for the lower unit will need to be built with enough width to provide support for the lower fireplace unit plus the bearing surface for the support columns needed to carry the offset chimney sequence of the lower system. (Figure 121) Floor-to-Floor Height Considerations: In order for the lower fireplace installation to have enough overhead height clearance for its chimney to rise at a thirty degree (30°) angle of offset (maximum angle of offset as allowed by code) and bypass to one side of the firebox in the upper location there are minimum required floor-to-floor height dimensions. (See chart, page 54, Dimension “F”) The minimum floor-to-floor height required for an installation is determined by calculating the total horizontal distance the lower flue must travel to the left or right for it to bypass to one side of the upper fireplace (see calculating offsets on page 41). The total amount of horizontal chimney offset travel distance will be determined by two factors: 1. The width dimension of the upper unit; and 2. The horizontal distance between centerlines of the pro- posedupper and lower units. Example: If the upper fireplace and the lower fireplace sit on the same centerline then the required floor-to-floor dimension is at a maximum (See Figure 122 and chart, page 50 dimen- sion, column “F”.) For every 3” of horizontal distance separating the centerlines of the upper and lower units the overall height of the offset sequence is reduced by one offset block or by 6”. Notes: A raised hearth at the lower fireplace will increase the minimum floor-to-floor height requirement by the height dimension of the raised hearth. In the interest of clarity the drawing on pages 58 & 59 (Figure 121 & 122) of the offset chimney sequence does not show the offset block support columns as required for offset sequences and as described on page 47 of this manual.FIGURE 121 02/17/2021 Specialty Applications - Two Story Stacked Installations (cont.)

Notes: If raised hearths are planned for the lower unit then “F” dimension will increase by the height of the raised hearth at the lower unit. In the interest of clarity the drawings on pages 58 and 59 (Figures 121 & 122) of the offset chimney sequence do not show the offset block support columns as required for offset sequences. See page 47 for complete offset support instructions. Consult local structural engineer for support slab load calculations.

Do not scale drawings. Illustrations in this manual are not to scale and are intended to show “typical” installations. Nominal dimensions are given for design and framing ref- erence only, since actual installations may vary due to job specific design preferences. Always maintain the stated mini- mum clearances to combustible materials. Do not violate any specific installation requirements. The Fire-Lite has been tested and listed by Warnock Hersey (Report Nos. J20004277-231 and 632-912500) to UL 127-1999. These units are intended for installation in residen- tial homes, and other buildings of conventional construction. Fire-Lite fireplace systems are also designed for installation in accordance with the National Fire Protection Association Standard for chimneys, fireplaces, vents and Solid Fuel-Burn- ing Appliances (NFPA 211). Fire-Lite fireplaces are not listed for use with fireplace inserts. Safety Instructions: Because the Fire-Lite is an application of the Mag- num Series fireplace, the safety instructions are listed on pages 5 & 6 of this manual. Please refer to them and read them care- fully before installing your Fire-Lite unit. 60 FIGURE 123 Fire-Lite Application - General Information 02/17/2021 FTF 13 Metal Chimney 2” min.2” min. 1 ½” min.

Zero inch (0”) clearance at the Fire-Lite smoke dome front wall (Figure 125). One and one half inches (1-1/2”) clearance at the Fire-Lite firebox back wall and side walls; Two inches (2”) minimum air space to combustibles at all FTF-13 metal chimney components’ outer layer; Three inches (3”) clearance to insulation from all Fire-Lite firebox, smoke dome and chimney components. Important: “Combustibles” are defined as “normal construction materials” and are considered to be: wood framing materials, par- ticle board, mill board, plywood sub-flooring, plywood paneling and wood flooring. Sheathing materials, such as plywood, particle board and drywall may cover the smoke dome front at zero inch (0”) clearance. All combustible sheathing materials must be held eight inches (8”) away from the sides of the firebox opening and eight inches (8”) above the top of the firebox opening. Drywall must be cut two inches (2”) back from the firebox opening sides and eight inches (8”) above the top of the opening. CAUTION: Maintain a minimum of three inch (3”) clearance to insulation and vapor barriers. (Figure 34, page 75) Combustible objects, such as furniture, placed in front of the fireplace must be kept a minimum of forty-eight inches (48”) from the fireplace opening. Notes: The Fire-Lite Application is designed, tested and approved for installation at a minimum of four inches (4”) above combustible floor systems per the installation specifications given in this manual. Any portion of the combustible floor system left exposed under the base plate is to be covered with minimum 1” thick ceramic fiber insulation board rated to 2100 degrees Fahrenheit (Figure 129). All Fire-Lite Series result in the finished fire brick floor of the firebox being at least eight inches (8 1/2”) above the combustible floor system (Figure 130). 61 02/17/2021 62 Floor framing for a Fire-Lite installation will need to be designed and built to accept substantial dead loads spread over a relatively small floor area. The following weights and sizes can be used to cal- culate Fire-Lite loading. Consult with local structural engineer for proper sizing of structural floor frame members for specific installations. Load Calculations: Total dead load amounts include (but are not neces- sarily limited to) the following items and their corresponding weight estimates listed below: 1. Fire-Lite unit model weights: a. Model 36 FP: 1360 lbs. b. Model 42 FP: 1450 lbs. c. Model 48 FP: 1600 lbs. 2. Damper, fire brick and mortar: 450 lbs. 3. Raised platform: 40 lbs. 4. Fireplace finished facing: approx. 200 lbs. 5. Weight of metal flue: negligible By adding the weight of the appropriate Fire-Lite Model listed in #1 above to the allowance given for each item in 2 through 5, above, the total weight of the Fire-Lite Series can be estimated. Total approximate Fire-Lite Series weight estimates for each Model: Model 36 FP @ 1360 lbs. + items 2 thru 5 @ 690 = 2050 lbs. Model 42 FP @ 1450 lbs + items 2 thru 5 @ 690 = 2140 lbs. Model 48 FP @ 1600 lbs + items 2 thru 5 @ 690 = 2290 lbs. The floor area for each model is as follows: Model 36 FP @ 43” x 25.25” = 7.54 sq.ft. Model 42 FP @ 48.5” x 25.25”= 8.50 sq.ft. Model 48 FP @ 53” x 25.25” = 9.30 sq.ft. Notes: These dead load totals are in addition to the live load and other dead load requirements for the specific site’s pro- posed floor. The load estimates given above for items are esti- mates only and may not accurately define total loads related to the completed fireplace due to material choices that are at owner option. Consult your local structural engineer for proper floor system design, sizing and specifications. Isokern is not responsible for structural floor support details for the Fire-Lite fireplace. Unless otherwise noted all floor framing drawings in this manual are merely illustrations to indicate the presence of an underlying floor system.

Metal safety strip - a generic 26 ga., four inch (4”) wide galvanized metal strip - must be inserted to approximately two inch (2”) beneath the platform at the front of the noncombustible raised platform. The safety strips must extend out from the front of the raised platform at least two inches (2”) and must extend to at least two inches (2”) beyond the ends of the raised platform. Any overlaps in the length of the safety strips should be a minimum of two inches (2”) for continual coverage of the combustible floor at the front of the fireplace (Figure 130). The exposed combustible floor within the perimeter formed by the noncombustible raised platform must be completely covered with one inch thick ceramic fiber insulation board (Figure 128). The board is dry laid to the floor within the block perim- eter. The ceramic fiber board must have a thermal conductivity rating equal to or greater than 0.4 Btu-in/hrsq. ft-degree Fahr- enheit.

FIGURE 131 02/17/2021 65 Fire-Lite Application - Flush Wall Finish Detail Fire-Lite fireplaces are designed to be installed so that the rough front face of the firebox and damper plate project into the room approximately one-half inch (1/2”) beyond the face of the rough framing members that create the room’s wall surface. The smoke dome unit sits two and three-fourths inches (2 3/4”) back from the rough face of the firebox and damper plate. This set back dimen- sion allows for one and one-half inch (1 1/2”) framing plus one-half inch (1/2”) thick wall board to pass in front of the smoke dome and at the same time align flush with the room face of the Fire-Lite damper plate. Clearance to Drywall: Drywall can be placed directly in contact with the front of the firebox and smoke dome. Set in this position, framing and wall board are kept to the required eight inches (8”) above the firebox opening top. (Figure 132) Important: Do not build a frame wall in front of the MAGNUM firebox and damper plate. (Figure 133) FIGURE 133FIGURE 132 02/17/2021 66 FTF-13 or Equivalent Chimney System The Fire-Lite is designed, tested and listed for use with FTF-13 Class A metal chimney system, or equal. Do not modify or alter metal flue or metal flue components as this could result in an unsafe and potentially dangerous installation that may cause a serious hazard and void the listings, approvals and the limited warranty of the system. The following installation instructions refer to FTF-13 chimney system. If “equal” metal chimney systems are used, follow the metal flue manufacturer’s explicit installation instructions. General Information: This chimney system is designed for installation in accordance with the National Fire Protection Standard for chimneys and solid fuel burning appliances, NFPA 211 and in accordance with codes such as BOCA Basic/National Codes, the Standard Mechanical Code and the Uniform Building Codes. Note: Illustrations shown reflect “typical” installations with nominal dimensions and are for design and framing reference only. Actual installations may vary due to individual design preferences. However, always maintain minimum required clearances to combustible materials and do not violate any specific installation requirements. WARNING: Failure to use manufacture’s provided parts, variations in techniques and construction materials or practices other than those described in this manual may create a fire hazard and void the limited warranty. Chimney Clearance Requirements: The FTF-13 chimney’s outer layer requires a minimum two inch (2”) air space to combustibles. The chimney system must be enclosed when installed in or passing through a living area where combustibles or people may come in contact with it. This is important to prevent possible personal injury or fire hazard. The FTF-13 chimney’s fire stop spacer and roof flashing (not chase flashings) may be placed directly on or against normal construction materials. Note: “Normal construction materials” are considered to be: framing materials, particle board, mill board, plywood, paneling, flooring, and drywall. Chimney Height Requirements: The minimum recommended installed height of the com- pleted fireplace system is fourteen feet (14’ 0”). The minimum recommended installed height of the completed fireplace system that includes one offset chimney section is seventeen feet (17’ 0”).FIGURE 134 02/17/2021 FTF-13 Inswool Blanket AP-ISO FTF-13 AP-ISO Inswool Blanket Top Plate 67 Installation of the FTF-13 Metal Chimney System for the Fire- Lite: Transition from the Fire-Lite to the FTF-13 Metal Chimney System: The FTF-13 metal flue attaches to the smoke dome’s top plate by use of the AP-ISO masonry anchor plate. The Anchor Plate is fitted with an octagonal base plate to affix it to the smoke dome’s top plate. The anchor plate also has starter rings for both the inner and the outer sleeves of the metal flue (Figure 137). Step 1. Attach the AP-ISO anchor plate to the top plate of the Fire-Lite by first laying a twenty-four inch (24”) square, half inch (1/2”) thick (minimum) piece of ceramic fiber high temperature blanket (“Inswool” Ceramic Fiber HP Blanket, rated for tempera- tures up to 2400 degrees F., by Harbison-Walker Refractories Co. 600 Grant Street, Pittsburgh, PA 15219, or equal.) on the top of the top plate. Cut a hole approximately 11” in diameter in the center of the high temperature blanket and align the blanket on the flue hole in the top plate (Figure 136). Step 2. Fit the AP-ISO Anchor Plate assembly onto the top plate so that the inner flue sleeve projecting out the bottom of the anchor plate is inserted through the high temperature blanket and into the hole in the top plate. The high temperature blanket is held between the anchor plate and the top plate as a gasket (Figure 137). Attach Anchor Plate to the top plate with masonry attachment screws through holes provided in the anchor plate into the top plate. Do not over torque masonry screws into the Fire-Lite mate- rial. Chimney Terminations: FTF-13 chimney pipe requires a termination component to be installed at or near the top of the chimney chase flashing (Figure 138). The FTF-13-CTD Round Termination is the recommend- ed termination. Installation: Step 1. Hold the FTF13-CTD over top of last chimney section. Step 2. Center inner slip section in inner flue pipe and slip down. Step 3. Center outer locking section over outer flue pipe. Push down until locking tabs are firmly engaged. Step 4. Pull up slightly on CTD to ensure locking joint has firmly engaged. Note: It is recommended that all exterior exposed metal chimney components - such as terminations, flashings, and flue - be painted with a premium quality, high temperature, rust preventative paint designed for metal. This is especially important when installations are made in abnormally adverse or corrosive environments such as near lakes and oceans or, in areas with consistently high humid- ity conditions. Consult the paint manufacturer’s instructions for proper preparation and application. Ten Foot Rule Summary: Refer to page 54 of this manual.

WARNING: Fire-Lite fireplace and Class “A” metal chimney sys- tems will only draught properly when they are installed accord- ing to the instructions, in an appropriate location and with the proper chimney height. Installing the fireplace according to the instructions, choosing an appropriate location, and choosing an appropriate chimney height are the responsibility of the designer and the building contractor. Tightly insulated and sealed homes, two story interior spaces and high vaulted ceilings can cause negative air pressures within the house which can impair drafting performance. HVAC return air ducts near the fireplace opening will adversely affect the fireplace drafting performance. It is the responsibility of the designer, the building contractor and their mechanical contractor to determine that the building’s internal air pressures are conducive to positive fire- place drafting. Avoid placing any fireplace in an area near tall trees, tall buildings, or high land masses. These structures can reduce am- bient air flow pressure as well as produce down draughts, either of which can impair fireplace drafting performance. Earthcore Industries L.L.C. does not warrant drafting and is not responsible for it. 2. Magnum Fireplace and Fire-Lite Fireplace Curing Instructions: It is critical that the Isokern masonry elements in the Fire-Lite firebox and smoke dome assembly be dry before fir- ing of the unit. Moisture left in the Fire-Lite components from exposure during storage and shipping, as well as moisture from the installation phase, must be eliminated before the unit is put to its intended use. The first step in reducing the ambient moisture is to be sure that the completed Fire-Lite fireplace rest totally in a dried- in setting for a minimum of 28 days after construction of the unit is complete. The next step in curing the Fire-Lite fireplace is to be sure that the first five or six fires are of short duration. The first fire of the unit can take place once the mini- mum twenty-eight day drying period has passed. This fire should be especially short. Start the first fire slowly with a small amount of paper and kindling (small dry wood splits or twigs) and a maximum load of four to six pounds of dry firewood, estimated to be no more than two or three logs each of about three inches (3”) to four inches (4”) diameter. The first fire should burn for no more than thirty to sixty minutes and then allowed to go out. Do not refuel the fireplace during the first lighting. A cooling off period of twenty-four hours, at a mini- mum, should follow the first fire. The second fire should be the same as the first fire. The second fire should burn for no more than thirty to sixty minutes and allowed to go out. Do not refuel the fireplace during the second lighting. A twenty-four hour cooling off period must be observed following second lighting. After first and second fire, continue use of the unit with three or four small fires of short duration (sixty minutes or so) and small fuel load. After these first five or six small fires of short dura- tion normal use of the fireplace can proceed. For normal use the maximum recommended fuel load is twelve to sixteen pounds of dry firewood at a time. This fuel load is consid- ered to be approximately three to five cured hardwood logs of about three inches (3”) to six inches (6”) in diameter. As the fire burns down, refueling should be only one or two logs added at a time. Important: Do not burn construction debris or trash of any kind in the Fire-Lite fireplace. Whereas it is not uncommon for construction debris and refuse to be burned in a fireplace by site personnel on a project that is under construction, this activity must be avoided. It is the responsibility of the building contractor to insure that the required dry-in period is met and that the required lighting sequence is performed by the owner or by the owner’s agent. 3. Log grates are required for burning solid fuel in the Isokern fireplace. Grates allow for easy air flow up through the burning logs thus creating a more complete and efficient burning of the fuel. 4. How to Build a Fire: First set the fireplace damper in the full open posi- tion. Begin laying the fire by placing several pieces of wad- ded up paper directly on the log grate. Place kindling (small splits of dry pine or other dry softwood) on top of the paper, enough to loosely cover the paper. Next arrange several small, dry hardwood or softwood logs or log splits on top of the kindling layer. Finally, arrange two or three larger hardwood logs (oak, hickory, etc.) or log splits on top of the stack. Ignite the paper at the bottom of the stack. The burning paper will ignite the kindling which will, in turn, set the remaining fuel on fire. Be sure to stack all firewood in such a way that it will settle into the log grate as the paper and kindling layers are burned away. Additional logs can be set onto the fire as each fueling burns down. Ideally, fuel logs should be of a hardwood species that have been air dried for one year or longer. Use of cured or uncured pine logs and uncured hardwood logs for fuel should be avoided. Pine logs and uncured hardwood logs will tend to smolder and burn at relatively low temperatures producing high levels of soot and creosote. Important: Do not throw, toss, jam, kick or otherwise force logs into the Standard fireplace. 02/17/2021 70 Summary WARNING: Never use gasoline, gasoline type lantern fuel, kero- sene, charcoal lighter fluid or other similar liquids to start or “freshen up” the fire in this fireplace or in any fireplace. WARNING: If processed solid fuel firelogs are used: Do not poke or stir the logs while they are burning. Use only firelogs that have been evaluated for the application in fireplace and refer to firelog warnings and caution markings on packaging prior to use. 5. Avoid over-firing this fireplace. Some examples of over- firing are: a. Burning of scrap lumber, construction debris, pine branches and brush or cardboard boxes; b. Burning small diameter twigs, branches or any other small sized combustible materials in quantities which exceed the volume of the normal log fire; c. Use of artificial wax base logs, trash or other chemicals or chemically treated combustibles. WARNING: Over-firing can permanently damage this fireplace system. 6. Fireplace Doors and Screens: This fireplace has not been tested for use with doors. To reduce the risk of fire or injury, do not install doors. If doors are required by the local authority having jurisdiction then doors must be kept in the fully open position when the fireplace is in operation. Isokern does not limit the use of fireplace screens. 7. Disposal of Ashes: It is recommended that the firebox be cleaned of ex- cessive ashes before each use. It is necessary to remove ashes from the open front of the fireplace. To do so, proceed in the following manner: Allow the fire to go out and the ashes to cool for at least six to eight hours. After the cooling period carefully pick up the ashes from the firebox with a small, metal fireplace shovel or other metal scoop and place them in a metal container with a tight fitting lid. If possible do not sweep the ashes as this will stir them into the air and disperse them into the room. The closed container of ashes should be placed on a noncombustible 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 cin- ders have thoroughly cooled. 8. Inspection and Cleaning: At least twice a year in warm climates or monthly during the heating season in colder climates, thoroughly inspect the Fire-Lite fireplace and chimney system. Chimneys must be installed so that access is provided for inspection and cleaning. The chimney should be inspected monthly during the heating season. Inspect the entire flue from the top down for obstruc- tions such as birds’ nests, leaves, etc. Such obstructions must be removed. Check spark arrestor screens for clear flow of smoke every two to four weeks during the heating season. Inspect the flue periodically during the heating season for the presence of soot and creosote build up. If creosote or soot has accumulated, it should be removed to reduce the risk of chimney fire. Have your chimney cleaned by a professional chim- ney sweep if you have doubts about your ability to do it. Use a plastic, wood or steel brush to clean the chimney. Scrub the spark arrestor/chimney cap with a wire brush. Remove any chimney cap for flue cleaning from the top. Open the damper in the firebox for cleaning access from below. Clean the inner portion of the flue by using a flexible handled chimney cleaning brush. For straight run flue the proper size brush can be pulled up through the flue from the firebox with the damper open. If the chimney has an offset chimney section, brush cleaning from the chimney top down to the offset/return and then from the firebox up to the offset section is the proper method. In either case, cover the fireplace opening with a damp sheet (sealed to the opening with masking tape) before brush cleaning. Do not remove sheet until the soot has settled. It is advised to vacuum loosened soot. Do not sweep loosened soot as sweeping will disperse soot into the air and about the room. WARNING: Do not use chemical fireplace and chimney cleaners that are poured on a hot fire. These can be dangerous and generally work only on the flue section nearest the fire, leaving the rest of the flue unaffected. 9. Exterior Maintenance: Annually, at a minimum, check all metal flashings and weather seals around the exterior chimney where it penetrates the roof surface; inspect any chimney top spark arrestors, metal cowlings and weather hoods to make sure they are secure and weather tight. Seal any cracks or gaps in chimney-to-roof flashings to prevent possible roof and chimney chase leaks. Inspect any cement chimney cap or clay chimney pot terminations to make sure they are not diverting water into the structure. Seal any suspected cracks or gaps in these masonry components. 02/17/2021 Notes 71 02/17/2021 Warranty & Disclaimer Isokern FIreplace ISOKERN offers a lifetime warranty for all Isokern components, to be free from defects in materials that negatively affect system performance from the date of purchase, subject to the terms and conditions of this limited warranty.

This paint dries quickly in 15-20 minutes when first applied at the factory. However, due to the high temperature silicone components, the paint will cure when heat is applied to the appliance as it is first used. The following information applies to the curing process to get the paint fully hard and durable. Fire the appliance four successive times for 10 minutes each firing and a 5 minute cool down between each. Be aware during log and firebox paint curing that a white deposit may be developing on the inside of the glass doors. It is important to remove this white deposit from the glass doors using a fireplace glass cleaner. Babies, small children, pregnant women and pets should leave the area during the cure phase. Ventilate well, open doors and windows. Do not touch during curing. Why does my fireplace or stove give off odour? It is normal for your fireplace to give off some odor at first. This is due to the curing of the paint, adhesives, silicones and any undetected oil from the manufacturing process as well as the finishing materials used with the installations (e.g. marble, tile and the adhesives used to adhere this product to the walls can react with heat and cause odours). It is recommended that you burn your gas fireplace or stove for a minimum of four hours at a time with the fan off (if a fan is present) after the curing of the paint has been completed. These odours can last upward to 40 hours of burn time; keep burning at a minimum of four hours per use until odours dissipate. Noise coming from the fireplace? Noise is caused by the expansion and contraction of metal as the appliance heats up and cools down. This is normal and is similar to the sounds produced by a furnace or heating duct. This noise does not affect the operation or longevity of your fireplace. It is also normal for the fan to make some noise when it comes on. This noise can be reduced somewhat by turning down the speed of the fan with the variable speed control. Be aware, however, that this will reduce the volume of heated air circulated into the room by the fan. Note to the Installer: Be sure appliance is working properly and its operation (including remote control operation, if included) is fully explained to and understood by the customer. Operating Instructions 1. Be sure to read and understand all the instructions in this manual before operation of appliance. 2. Ensure all wiring is correct and properly enclosed to prevent possible shock. 3. Check for gas leaks. 4. Make sure the glass door is properly installed before operation. Never operate the appliance with the glass door removed. 5. Make sure venting and termination cap are installed and unobstructed. 6. If brick or porcelain liners are used, ensure they are installed. 7. Verify that the pilot can be seen when lighting the appliance. If not, the log or rock placement is incorrect. 8. If the unit is turned off, you must wait a minimum of 60 seconds before re-lighting it. 7 02/17/2021 Mobile Home/Manufactured Housing Installation This Direct Vent System Appliance must be installed in accordance with the manufacturer’s installation instructions and the Manufactured Home Construction and Safety Standard Title 24 CFR, Part 3280, or the current Standard for Fire Safety Criteria for Manufactured Home Installations, Sites, and Communities ANSI/NFPA 501A, and with CAN/CSA Z240 MH Mobile Home Standard in Canada. THE VENTED GAS FIREPLACE HEATERS (ANSI Z21.88-2009) IN THIS MANUAL MAY BE INSTALLED IN MANUFACTURED (MOBILE) HOMES AFTER FIRST SALE IN THE USA. THE VENTED GAS FIREPLACE HEATERS (ANSI Z21.88-2009) IN THIS MANUAL MAY BE INSTALLED IN MANUFACTURED (MOBILE) HOMES IN CANADA. Please follow the current ANSI/NFPA 70 National Electrical Code in the USA and CAN/CSA C22.1 Canadian National Electrical Code in Canada. An appliance must be grounded to the steel chassis of the home with 8 ga. copper wire using a serrated or star washer to penetrate paint or protective coating to insure grounding.

Before beginning, make note of where the gas and electrical accesses are located on the unit. This will streamline the construction process. Furthermore, familiarize yourself with the venting and clearance requirements (see Venting section) for this appliance. Failure to comply with those requirements can seriously compromise the safety and operation of the fireplace. Specifications 1. Cold climate installation recommendation: When installing this fireplace against non insulated exterior wall or chase, it is recommended that the outer walls be insulated to conform to applicable insulation codes. Drywall & vapor barrier must be installed over insulation to prevent contact of insulation and unit. 2. Choose fireplace location and frame in accordance with the fireplace framing dimensions specified (view diagrams). 3. Drywall or other combustible material can extend up to the Drywall Stops located on the sides of the un it, and up to the bottom and top. 4. A Hearth is not required for this unit. Certified for installation in a bedroom or bedsitting room. In Canada must be installed with listed millivolt thermostat (Not permitted for decorative vented gas fireplaces installed in the U.S.A.). In USA see local codes. Stand-off Locations Make note of where the stand-off locations are. These stand-offs are provided as indicators to illustrate the boundaries for framing. Therefore, no framing material is permitted to extend beyond these stand -offs. Vertical Venting in Cold Climates In cold climate conditions where temperatures go below -10 degrees Celsius or 14 degrees Fahrenheit, we recommend that the chase be insulated and where the vent pipe enters into the attic space that the pipe be wrapped with an insulated Mylar sleeve. This will increase the temperature of the vent and help the appliance to vent properly in cold weather conditions. It is also important in vertical vented direct vent appliances that the appliance be operated daily during the winter months as this will help stop the termination from freezing up. We recommend using a thermostat (Not permitted for decorative vented gas fireplaces installed in the U.S.A.) set at room temperature to allow the unit to cycle. For IPI models it may be necessary to set the appliance to Standing Pilot mode to maintain heat in the cavity. The purpose of this procedure is to prevent cold air from penetrating the chimney and then onto the living space. Therefore, when the internal temperature is slightly elevated the fireplace is able to freely exhaust its combustion and hence making it easier to startup. Nailing Tabs Caution: Standoffs on top of the unit must be folded into position & screwed down Prior to installation. Holes are provided in bottom of unit to secure appliance to floor after installation. 9 02/17/2021 MQZCV48 Framing- Nailing Tab Guide These Nailing Tabs can be used in two ways: 1/2” Drywall Flush with Face of Fireplace – Fireplace and Combustible Wall to be covered with a surround or Non-Combustible Materials (e.g. Stone around Fireplace).

FIREPLACE WITH SCREEN ONLY (AS SHIPPED) SHOWN HERE. Refer to BASIC FINISHING Sections for important finishing details. When finishing the wall around the fireplace, it is critical that the wall covering be fastened properly. It is acceptable to pre-drill holes and use self-tapping screws which may be used to fasten a backer for tile, marble, etc. Screws being installed through non-combustible board should be self-tapping type with a maximum length of 2 inches. Do not drill or install longer screws (over 2”) as this may damage internal components. Only non-combustible materials may be used over the face of the appliance. We recommend that CONCRETE BOARD (non- combustible material) be tied in to the entire perimeter of the fireplace for durability. Finishing Recommendations (Obtained from professional construction contractors and finishers): Frame unit with metal studs (minimum 20 gauge).Wooden studs may be used, but may cause drywall screws to pop or pull due to wood studs drying out. Minimum of 1/2” CONCRETE BOARD cement board (this non-combustible panel is ULC listed as a wall shield/floor protector) and fasten to the entire perimeter framing. Use fiberglass (mesh) tape for all joints in area of the fireplace. Use Yellow joint mud (contains high amounts of glue) – two coats, finishing with one coat of green topping mud, sand and prep for painting.

Before installing any mantels it is important to determine the combustibility of its material(s). There are two types of mantels to consider: Combustible and Non-Combustible. A Combustible Mantel is one that consists of material(s) that may discolor, combust, or lose its integrity in the presence of heat. These types of mantels must strictly conform to the dimensional requirements shown. Conversely, a Non-Combustible Mantel is one that is constructed with material(s) that will not combust. Check your local codes and regulations to determine whether your mantel is combustible or Non- Combustible. The advantage to Non-Combustible Mantels is that it may extend right up to the tile lip of the fireplace. Combustible mantels must adhere to the dimensional restrictions shown. -Combustible Objects on Non- Combustible Mantel Warning- Combustible objects must not be placed on a Non-combustible Mantel unless the mantel meets the dimensional requirements for a Combustible Mantel. Determine whether your mantel conforms to the requirements of a Combustible Mantel. Adjacent Wall Adjacent Wall Top View Mantel Dimensions are from front face or Non-Combustible Facing Materials covering fireplace.

Bottom Latch Door 38 02/17/2021 Door and Glass Information Glass Cleaning It will be necessary to clean the glass periodically. During startup, condensation, which is normal, forms on the inside of the glass, and causes dust, lint etc. to cling to the glass surface. Also, initial paint curing can deposit a slight film on the glass. It is therefore recommended that initially the glass be cleaned two or three times with a fireplace glass cleaner. After that, the glass should be cleaned two or three times a season depending on the circumstances. Glass Replacement MQZCV48N, MQZCV48LP, MQZCV48NE, MQZCV48LPE must use tempered glass. Must be 5mm thick. To replace glass, clean all materials from the door frame. Scrape off old silicone all the way down to the metal. Using high-temp silicone [rated up to 500°F (260°C)] apply a continuous bead of approximately 1/8”-3/16” to all four [4] sides of the frame. With the frame resting on a flat surface, insert the new glass with a new gasket. Gently press the glass into the silicone. Be careful not to use excessive force on the glass. Let the silicone dry for approximately 15-20minutes. Use caution when removing broken glass. Wear gloves. Removal of the Glass Door 1. Remove the door by unlatching the 2 top latches. Simply place 2 fingers in the grooves, and pull and lift upward slightly. 2. Once the top of the door is unlatched, pull it outward and lower it to unlatch the bottom. 3. To re-install, place the Bottom Door Ledge into the 2 Lower Latch assemblies first. Then swing the door closed to seal it against the firebox cavity. Re-latch the Upper Latch assembly to secure the door to the appliance. Spring Replacement *Over time, the door latch spring (Part#36HB-123) may need to be replaced if tension is lost. 1. To replace latch spring, remove the 2 hex screws (located in the firebox) that secure the latch assembly in place. 2. Once the screws are removed the latches will slide out of place. 3. Remove the locknut from the latch assembly and replace the spring. Re-tighten the locknut until 2 thread turns are beyond the locknut. This is critical for proper tension. Replace latch assembly. ⚠ Cautions and Warnings Do not clean when the glass is hot. The use of substitute glass will void all product warranties (see Glass Replacement in this section). Care must be taken to avoid breakage of the glass. Do not operate this fireplace without the glass front or with a broken glass front. Do not strike or abuse the glass.

To Wall Switch, Thermostat*, Or Remote Receiver 41 02/17/2021 Troubleshooting the Gas Control System Problem Possible Causes Corrective Action Defective or misaligned electrode at pilot. Check for spark at electrode and pilot: if no spark and electrode wire is properly connected, replace igniter. Spark igniter will not light. Defective igniter (push- button). Using a match, light pilot. If pilot lights, turn off pilot and push the red button again. If pilot will not light - check gap at electrode and pilot should be 1/8" to 1/4" to have a strong spark. Defective thermocouple (flame switch where applicable). Check pilot flame. Must impinge on generator and thermocouple. Clean and/or adjust pilot for maximum flame impingement on generator and thermocouple. Replace thermocouple if pilot will not hold. (Hand tight 1/8 turn on replacement) Pilot will not stay lit after carefully following lighting instructions. Defective valve magnet. Replace valve, if pilot won't hold after the thermocouple is replaced. Wall switch or wires defective. Check wall switch and wires for proper connections. Jumper wire across terminals at wall switch. If burner comes on, replace defective wall switch. If okay, jumper wires, across wall switch wires at valve. If burner comes on, wires are faulty or connections are bad. Generator may not be generating sufficient voltage. Check generator with millivolt meter. Take reading at generator terminals of gas valve. Should read 325 millivolts minimum while holding valve knob depressed in pilot position and wall switch "off" Replace faulty generator if reading is below specified minimum. Plugged burner orifice. Check burner orifice for stoppage and remove. Pilot burning, no gas to burner, valve knob “ON”, and wall switch “ON”. Defective automatic valve operator. Remove wall switch wires from gas valve. Install jumper wires from top bottom terminals of gas valve. Turn valve on "ON". If main burner does not light, replace valve. Frequent pilot outage problem. Pilot flame may be too low or blowing (high) causing the pilot safety to drop out. Clean and/or adjust pilot flame for maximum flame impingement on generator and thermocouple. Flame lifts off burner and goes out in less than 30 seconds. The inner liner has come off flue or termination, flame is starving for oxygen. Attach the inner liner to flue or termination using screws, silicone and clamps as stated in manual. Flame lifts off burner on one side while the rest of the flame remains lit. Improper installation of firebrick. Firebrick is likely leaning. Be sure to position firebrick against firebox walls and be sure to use brick clips attached to the inner side of firebox.

This alternating mode is controlled by the CPI/IPI Switch (Continuous Pilot Ignition/Intermittent Pilot Ignition) located on the IPI System Box. The difference between a Standing-Pilot and an Intermittent-Pilot is in whether the pilot stays lit or shuts off: In Standing-Pilot, the pilot assembly is lit by the IPI Main Module and continues to stay lit until 1) the CPI/IPI Switch is switched to the IPI position; 2) a loss of electrical power (battery and AC source), 3) the flame sensor loses its signal, 4) the fuel supply discontinues, or 5) the IPI Main Module malfunctions. In the Intermittent-Pilot mode, the pilot shuts off when the appliance is not in use. The advantage of this mode is that fuel is not consumed when the fireplace is not operating. NOTE: In some jurisdictions Intermittent-Pilot is required. That means the pilot cannot remain lit when the appliance is not operating. Components The core of the IPI system is the Main Module and the IPI Valve. With these two components the system is able to operate a gas fireplace. There are also other components available to complement the IPI system. IPI System Cover: Is essential in keeping the components at their proper operating temperatures. DO NOT OPERATE THE APPLIANCE WITHOUT THIS COVER. AC Adapter Plug In CPI / IPI Switch Remote Receiver Module IPI Module Fan Control Module UHS Box Cover Backup Battery Pack Modulating Servo Motor: Is an add-on valve component that permits HI/LO functionality to be controlled by the remote. Contrary to this feature is a Manual HI/LO Control Knob. The Modulating Servo Motor requires the Remote system to be present. Backup Battery Pack: This component permits the IPI system to operate without the need for an external AC Adapter power source. The advantage to using the battery backup is that in the case of a power failure, the appliance is still operable. NOTE: In certain instances the IPI Main Module requires resetting. This can occur if the system is unable to ignite the pilot or the main burner in the allotted time period. The IPI is programmed to lockout all commands. To reset this lockout you must deplete the system of all electrical power. This means to remove the batteries from the Battery Pack, remove the batteries from the Remote Receiver (if applicable), and disconnect the AC Adapter from the system. Leave the power off for approximately 25 seconds to clear its lockout. Remote Receiver: This component provides the capability of controlling the appliance with a wireless remote transmitter. Standing Pilot Mode for Colder Climates (Below Freezing) For IPI models it may be necessary to set the appliance to Standing Pilot mode to maintain heat in the cavity. The purpose of this procedure is to prevent cold air from penetrating the chimney and then onto the living space. Therefore, when the internal temperature is slightly elevated the fireplace is able to freely exhaust its combustion and hence making it easier to startup. 48 02/17/2021 -Remote Control Operation- The Proflame GTM is configured to control the on/off main burner operation, its flame levels, and provides on/off and Smart thermostatic control of the appliance. Transmitter The Transmitter is powered by 3 AAA type batteries. A Mode Key is provided to Index between the features and a Thermostat Key is used to turn on/off or index through thermostat functions Remote Receiver The Receiver connects directly to the gas valve and stepper motor with a wiring harness. The Receiver is powered by 4 AA type batteries. The Receiver three position slider switch can be set to one of three positions: ON (Manual Override), Remote (Remote control) or Off. Initializing the System for the first time Install 4 AA batteries into the receiver battery bay. Install 3 AAA type batteries in the Transmitter battery bay. Place the 3 position slider switch in the “Remote” position. Insert the end of a paper clip into the hole marked “PRG” on the Receiver front cover. The Receiver will “beep” three (3) times to indicate that it is ready to synchronize with a Transmitter. Push the On button. The Receiver will “beep” four times to indicate the Transmitter’s command is accepted. The system is now initialized. Temperature indication Display With the system in the “OFF” position, press the Thermostat Key and the Mode Key at the same time. Look at the LCD screen on the Transmitter to verify that a C or F is visible to the right of the Room Temperature display. Turn the Appliance On or Off Press the ON/OFF Key on the Transmitter Remote Flame Control The Proflame GTM has six (6) flame levels. Pressing the Down Arrow Key once will reduce the flame height by one step until the flame is turned off. The Up Arrow Key will increase the flame height each time it is pressed. If the Up Arrow Key is pressed while the system is on but the flame is off, the flame will come on in the high position. Room Thermostat ( Transmitter Operation) The Remote Control can operate as a room thermostat. To activate this function, press the Thermostat Key. The LCD display on the Transmitter will change to show that the room thermostat is “ON” and the set temperature is now displayed. To adjust the set temperature, press the Up or Down Arrow Keys until the desired set temperature is displayed on the LCD screen of the Transmitter. Smart Thermostat (Transmitter Operation) The Smart Thermostat function adjusts the flame height in accordance to the difference between the set point temperature and the actual room temperatures. As the room temperature gets closer to the set point the Smart Function will modulate the flame down. To activate this function, press the Thermostat Key until the word "SMART" appears to the right of the temperature bulb graphic. To adjust the set temperature, press the Up or Down arrow Keys until the desired set point temperature is displayed. Key Lock Function This function will lock the keys to avoid unsupervised operation. To activate this function, press the MODE and the UP Arrow Key at the same time. To de-activate this function, press the MODE and the UP Arrow Key at the same time. Low Battery Detection Transmitter - When the Transmitter batteries are low, a Battery Icon will appear on the LCD display of the Transmitter. Receiver - When the Receiver batteries are low, No “beep” will be emitted from the Receiver when it receives an On/Off command from the Transmitter. When the batteries are replaced the “beep” will be emitted from the Receiver when the ON/OFF Key is pressed (See Initializing the System for the first time). Manual Bypass Of The Remote System If the batteries of the Receiver or Transmitter are low or depleted, the appliance can be turned on manually by sliding the three position slider switch on the Receiver to the ON position. This will bypass the remote control feature and the appliance main burner will come on if the gas valve is in the “On” position. Remote Receiver Transmitter NOTE: The Remote Receiver module can also be located outside of the appliance to a maximum of 6ft away installed in a certified deep wall switch electrical box (2-3/4” depth). For this configuration an extension wiring harness (P/N: 1001- P904SI) is required. 49 02/17/2021 IPI Electronic Ignition Parts List – Standard System ITEM NO. PART NO.

It is configured to control the ON/OFF main burner operation, giving the choice of both IPI (intermittent pilot ignition), and CPI (continuous pilot ignition) modes. The Proflame2 IFC board controls directly the pilot assembly and an automatic valve 880, 886 and 885 of the Proflame families using low voltage electric power. The IFC board is powered by Line voltage (AC) with provision of battery back up in case of main power loss. Fans and lighting features will not function when the IFC is powered by battery backup. The Proflame IFC has the ability to control the comfort fan through 6 speeds, modulate an accent light through 6 levels and switch on or off an auxiliary output via the remote transmitter. Low battery power detection The life span of the receiver batteries depends on various factors: quality of the batteries used, the number of ignitions of the appliance, the number of changes to the room thermostat set point, etc. When the receiver batteries are low a “double-beep” will be emitted from the IFC when it receives an On/Off command from the transmitter. This is an alert for a low battery condition of the receiver and after that no more command will be accepted. When the batteries are replaced the “beep” will be emitted from the receiver as soon as powered. 58 02/17/2021 Proflame 2 Remote Control Follow the procedure below. Install the 3 AAA type batteries in the battery bay, located on the base of the Remote Control. Note polarity of the batteries and insert them as indicated. Connect the AC power supply to the IFC. Press the SW1 button on the IFC module so the IFC will “beep” and a red LED is illuminated to indicate that the IFC is ready to synchronize with a Remote Control within 10 seconds. With the batteries already installed in the Remote Control, push the ON button. The receiver will “beep” four times to indicate the Remote Control’s command is accepted. The system is now initialized. Low battery power detection The life span of the receiver batteries depends on various factors: quality of the batteries used, the number of ignitions of the appliance, the number of changes to the room thermostat set point, etc. When the Battery Holder’s batteries are low a “double-beep” will be emitted from the IFC when it receives an On/Off command from the Remote Control. When the Remote Control’s batteries are low, a Battery Icon will appear on the LCD display before all power is lost. When the batteries are replaced this icon will disappear.

Only Kingsman Flex (Z-Flex) Venting Kits and components specifically approved and LABELED for this stove may be used. This appliance is also approved for use with 5 x 8 M&G-Duravent Direct Vent system (Model DV-GS Series), BDM Pro Form Direct Vent, Ameri-Vent Direct Vent Pipe System, ICC Excel Direct, Metal Fab Sure-Seal DV and Selkirk Direct Temp. RIGID OR HARD PIPE When using 5 x 8 M&G-Duravent, Ameri-Vent pipe, BDM Pro Form Direct Vent, ICC Excel Direct, Metal Fab Sure-Seal DV and or Selkirk Direct Temp a 5 x 8 M&G Duravent hard pipe adapter must be used (part # Z58DFA). Follow installation instructions provided by M&G- Duravent/Ameri-Vent/Selkirk Direct Temp, ICC Excel Direct, and Metal Fab Sure-Seal DV for installation of pipe and adhere to the clearance to combustibles provided in this manual. Apply a bead of Mill Pac high temp sealant to all joints of pipes, adapters and termination, when using Kingsman Flex (Z-Flex) venting and M&G-Duravent venting. NOTE: Increase framing depth by one inch when using hard pipe. FLEX PIPE VENTING Kingsman Flex pipe is shipped in unexpanded length. When installing pipe expand the lengths. Pipe can be expanded to twice their lengths e.g. 4ft to 8ft. Fully expand pipe and cut off excess. Do not use more than 2 couplers to extend short pipes. Single sections are preferred in an installation attaching at the fireplace and termination. Place the spring spaces provided approximately every two feet to stabilize 5” flex in the center of 8” flex. When forming bends place spring in bend or before and after. (See Fig. 1). Horizontal runs require support metal straps every 2 feet. In offset installation support straps should be used to stabilize pipe. Expand 5” and 8” flex pipe to the point that the 8” protrudes approximately 2 to 3 inches past outer wall and the 5” flex protrudes approximately 2 to 3 inches past the 8” flex. (See Fig. 1). Attach the 5” pipe to the termination first and secure with sealant and screws then attach the 8” flex to the termination with caulking and screws. Termination may then be moved back to the outer wall and attached to home screwing into the framing. Silicone around termination to waterproof. If siding shield is going to be used attach this using same attaching hole as the top of termination after termination has been caulked for water proofing. Use Hi Temp Sealant Apply a bead of Mill Pac high temp sealant to all joints and use four screws to secure each pipe at fireplace, termination and any joint if joining any sections of pipe. Installation of Side Wall Venting 1. To determine the minimum distance from the bottom of fireplace to center of vent see the Framing Your Gas Fireplace section. Cut a hole through the wall allowing for a 12” x 12” (inside diameter) in combustible walls for wall thimble or a 9” diameter hole in a non-combustible wall (See Figure 2). 2. For the clearance to combustible above a 90 degree bend see Clearance to Combustibles section. 3. Select the approximate vent length, precise measurements are not needed as your flex pipe can be expanded to twice its s 4. hipped length for ease of installation 5. To install wall thimble center over 12” x 12” (inch) framing from both sides of wall and secure. Route flex vent pipe through wall thimble (See Figure 1). 6. Before joining pipes, apply a bead of high temperature sealant (Mill Pac) to end of pipe. First attach the five inch (5”) flue pipe to the vent termination with sealant, and secure with the four screws provided. At this time make sure the spacer springs are attached to the (5”) flex pipe as required. Then attach the eight inch (8”) pipe by the same method. 7. Mount vent termination and seal to wall using caulking around the wall thimble to weather proof. After installing the vent termination, double check to make sure the pipe extends properly through wall thimble and into vent termination. 8. Before joining pipes to fireplace flue, apply a bead of high temperature sealant (Mill Pac) to end of pipe. First attach the five inch (5”) flue pipe to fireplace with sealant, and secure with the four screws provided. At this time verify that the spacer springs are attached properly to the (5”) flex pipe as required. Then attach the eight inch (8”) pipe by the same method. 9. Support horizontal pipes every two (2) feet (61 cm) with metal strap bands. Re-check fireplace to make sure it is level and properly positioned and secured. 10. Support vertical pipes to maintain a minimum of 1” or greater clearance to combustibles with metal strapping bands. 11. If finishing the outside wall with vinyl or wood siding it is recommended that a Siding Shield be installed, Part Number ZDVSSLR. Note: Vent Termination must not be recessed into wall or siding. ⚠ WARNING: DO NOT mix parts from different systems unless stated in the manual. FRAMING DIMENSION Combustible Wall Cut a 12” hole through exterior wall and frame as shown below. Non Combustible Wall Cut or drill 9” diameter hole. NOTE: It is critical to the proper and safe operation of this fireplace that on all connections the inner liner and the outer casing are both caulked with liberal amounts of sealant. Do not use any kind of tape or silicone other than that recommended in this manual, Mill Pac Sealant FLUE GAS OUTLET MINIMUM 1” TO COMBUSTIBLES FIGURE 1 COMBUSTIBLE AIR INLET FIGURE 2 FRAMING DETAIL THROUGH COMBUSTIBLE WALL THROUGH NON- COMBUSTIBLE WALL 9” DIA 12” 12” WARNING: A HORIZONTAL VENT CERTIFIED GUARD (SAFETY CAGE) IS AVAILABLE WHEN REQUIRED BY LOCAL CODES.

The table showing the relationship between vertical and horizontal side wall venting will help to determine the various vent lengths. The maximum horizontal run is 20 ft/6.1 m when the vertical run is 7 ft. / 2.1m (Figure #2). Note: 1/4” vertical rise is required for every 12” of horizontal run. The maximum number of 45 degree bends per side wall installation is two (2) in the horizontal run and then you must reduce the length of the horizontal by 18 inches for each 45 degree bend. The maximum vertical run is 43 ft. / 13.1meters. Special Note: For each 45 degree bend installed in the horizontal run, the length of the horizontal run must be reduced by 18” (45cm). This does not apply if the 45 degree bends are installed on the vertical part of the vent system. Example: If according to the table, the length of the horizontal run is 10 feet, and two 45 degree bends are required, the horizontal run length must be reduced to 7 feet. 2 additional 90° bends or equals are allowed. The horizontal run must be reduced by 36” per each 90° bend, or 18” per each 45° bend. How to Use the Horizontal Vent Table 1. Determine the height of the system and the number of bends required. 2. Having determined the vertical distance determine the maxi- mum horizontal section allowed. 3. Vent table has been established for 90˚ horizontal/vertical runs. With use of flex pipe distance not having 90˚ bends will not fall into vent table standards.

NOTE: The final location of the fireplace must be such that the horizontal vent dimensions fall with- in those stated on the graph. The Maximum Vertical vent run is 43ft. (13.1 meters). IMPORTANT: Always locate the fireplace in such a way that a minimum of offsets and/or horizontal runs are required. 1/4” vertical rise is required for every 12” horizontal run. Important: Minimum clearance between vent pipes and combustible materials is1 inch (25mm). Figure 1 12 FEET 6 FEET Plus ¼” Rise/Ft = 73-1/2” Support Straps Every 2 Feet 20 FEET MAX 7 FEET Figure 2 12 FEET MAX For Propane Horizontal installations the venting must be an additional one foot above the minimum vertical rise off the flue before going horizontal. 63 02/17/2021 Venting Straight Up Through Roof An Attic Insulation Shield must be installed where the vent passes from a lower living space into an attic space where the chimney is not enclosed. It is designed to keep insulation materials away from the chimney. When installing the Attic Insulation Shield where the chimney passes from a living space to an attic space, install the shield from below and nail in place using 1" spiral nails. A fire stop must be installed on the bottom side of the joists when passing through a ceiling or floor. If an attic insulation shield is to be used, a fire stop is not required. Using Flex Bends Avoid cutting joists by offsetting the flex pipe. When using 45° bends a bend support is required directly above the highest bend. When installing a bend in a joist area a minimum of 4" clearance to combustible to the top of bend must be maintained, sides and bottom of pipe, a 1" clearance to combustibles must be maintained. If running horizontal through an area a 1-1/2" minimum clearance to the top of the horizontal pipe must be maintained. Maximum vertical height of system should not exceed 43 feet. Use roof support and rigid pipe at roof level. Flex pipe is not permitted within roof support. When penetrating the roof a rigid galvanized pipe must be used. Attach flex pipe to the rigid pipe with high temperature sealant, secure with four screws assuring the flex pipe and rigid pipe are secured. Attach rigid pipe to termination with sealant and screw with 4 sheet metal screws. The Inner flex pipe must be secured with 4 screws which must penetrate both the flex pipe and inner section of termination. Attach 8” rigid pipe to 8” termination with sealant and screw with 4 sheet metal screws. Vertical termination clearance is 18" [45.7cm] above the roof, measured from highest point of exit on the roof line. Support vertical pipes to maintain minimum of one inch or greater clearances to combustibles. Roof Flashing Ensure that you have the proper roof flashing by checking your roof pitch using a level and two rulers, or by using a roof pitch card. Slide a Roof Flashing suitable to your roof slope over the vent. Place the edge of the flashing plate that will be on the higher part of the roof slope under the shingles. Both the sides and the lower edge lay on top of the shingles. NOTE: At the top edge of the flashing plate, lift the shingles and nail the plate to the roof deck, then cement the shingles to the plate with a suitable waterproof mastic. Ensure that the chimney is plumb. Square up the flashing plate and nail in place to the roof deck. Use 12 nails with neoprene washers or cover the heads with a suitable waterproof mastic. Wrap the storm collar around the vent above the flashing. Secure the ends together loosely with nut and bolt supplied. Slide the collar down the vent until it comes in contact with the flashing. Tighten the bolt and seal the Storm Collar to the vent with a suitable waterproof non-combustible mastic. The flashing and storm collar should be painted to match the roof shingles. This will extend its life and improve the appearance. Clean, prime and paint with suitable painting products. Vertical Venting in Cold Climates In cold climate conditions where temperatures go below -10 degrees Celsius or 14 degrees Fahrenheit, we recommend that the chase be insulated and where the vent pipe enters into the attic space that the pipe be wrapped with an insulated Mylar sleeve. This will increase the temperature of the vent and help the appliance to vent properly in cold weather conditions. It is also important in vertical vented direct vent appliances that the appliance be operated daily during the winter months as this will help stop the termination from freezing up. We recommend using a thermostat set at room temperature to allow the unit to cycle. For IPI models it may be necessary to set the appliance to Standing Pilot mode to maintain heat in the cavity. The purpose of this procedure is to prevent cold air from penetrating the chimney and then onto the living space. Therefore, when the internal temperature is slightly elevated the fireplace is able to freely exhaust its combustion and hence making it easier to start up. -ALSO SEE DIAGRAMS ON FOLLOWING PAGE- Attic Insulation Shield Fire Stop Vertical Vent Framing 9” Round Hole through Masonry. 12” x 12” Framing for Combustible. 64 02/17/2021 Clearances in horizontal venting.
