INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS 

Before  installing  the  unit,  consult  an  authority  having  jurisdiction 
(such  as  your  municipal  building  department,  your  fire  department, 
your fire prevention department...) for any local codes and  whether 
a permit is required. In the absence of local codes, refer to the CSA 
B365 Installation Code for Solid Burning Appliances and Equipment 
(Canada)  or  the  ANSI  NFPA  211  Standard  for  Chimneys, 
Fireplaces,  Vents  and  Solid  Fuel-Burning  Appliances  (USA). 

CAUTION:  Modifications/alterations  to  the  unit/installation 
without  written  authorization  from  SUPREME  FIREPLACES 
INC.  are  strictly  forbidden  and  will  void  the  warranty.

  Refer  to 

Section  1  for  further  safety  information.  Carefully  read  the 
instructions below before installing your Elegance 42. 

3.1  Location 

Determine  the  location  of  the  Elegance  42  by  taking  into 
consideration the following criteria: 

  The  size  of  the  room  with  respect  to  the  heat  output  of  the 

fireplace. 

  The proximity of windows, doors, and traffic flow. 

  The necessary amount of space in front of the unit for the hearth 

extension and mantel (Refer to Sections 3.6 and 3.8). 

  The clearances to combustible materials. 

  The passage of the chimney. 

If  possible,  select  a  location  for  the  fireplace  that  will  minimize  the 
number  of  offsets  in  the  chimney  course.  Offsets  will  reduce  the 
draft,  complicate  the  chimney  sweeper’s  work,  and  increase 
installation  costs.  Do  not  install  an  offset  directly  onto  the 
unit/anchor  plate.  Technical  drawings  outlining  the  chimney  route 
should  be  prepared  prior  to  the  installation.  NOTE:  The  cutting  of 
joists and rafters for floor, ceiling, and roof chimney penetrations will 
affect  the  load  bearing  capacities  of  the  dwelling  structure.  To 
determine whether additional support is required, consult your local 
building  codes.  Improper  cutting  of  chimney  openings  in  the  attic 
and  roof  will  affect  the  bearing  and  thermal  insulating  capacity,  as 
well  as  the  weather  tightness  of  the  dwelling.  Avoid  incorrect 
workmanship  by  consulting  a  professional  engineer  or  a  certified 
installer. 

Through  examination  of  the  floor  construction,  ensure  that  the 
fireplace  and  chimney  system  is  resting  on  a  surface  capable  of 
withstanding its weight. Consult your building codes to see whether 
additional  structural  supports  are  required  (applicable  for  rare  and 
isolated cases). 

Avoid  having  the  chimney  outlet  near  any  obstructions  (such  as 
trees  and  roof  offsets)  as  the  draft  of  the  chimney  may  be  affected 
by wind turbulence. Ideally position the outlet of the chimney at the 
highest area of the roof. 

NOTE: It is strongly recommended to install a carbon monoxide 
(CO) and smoke detector near the location of the unit.
