Requirements for Installing
Solid-fuel Inserts in Factory-built Fireplaces.
1) The insert must be tested and meet the requirements of UL 1482 (U.S.) and or ULC S628 (Canada) when tested in a masonry fireplace built per ULC S628.
2) The factory-built fireplace must be listed per UL 127 or ULC S610.

4) Installation must include a full height listed chimney liner type HT requirements (2100 degree F.) per UL 1777 (U.S.) or ULC S635 (Canada). The liner must be securely attached to the insert flue collar and the chimney top.
