building codes may apply; therefore, contact your local building inspector or fire marshal
for necessary installation requirements and permits which may go beyond these
instructions. Contact your insurance company for coverage and installation inspection.
DO NOT INSTALL IN SLEEPING ROOMS.
NOTE: When burning any unit or appliance that combusts fuel for heat, such as
coal, oil, wood or natural and (L.P.) liquid petroleum gas, we highly recommend the
use of smoke and carbon monoxide detectors in your home.
Examine the masonry fireplace and chimney prior to installation of fireplace accessory to
determine that construction meets the minimum fireplace construction requirements
illustrated in the instructions. Make sure that it is free from cracks, loose mortar, creosote
deposits and other blockage, or other signs of deterioration.

CAUTION
YOUR CHIMNEY OR FLUE MUST BE CORRECTLY SIZED. A CHIMNEY OR FLUE
THAT IS TOO SMALL OR LARGE IN DIAMETER OR TOO SHORT CAN CAUSE YOUR
STOVE TO SPILL SMOKE WHEN THE DOOR IS OPENED.
SECTION I
INTRODUCTION
The MODEL 94NC is a non-catalytic unit designed to meet the most stringent emissions
standards without use of a catalytic combustor. This effect is achieved through use of
secondary air which is mixed with primary air in firebox.
For peak performance, we suggest the use of natural seasoned hard wood. Load wood
from front to rear.
NOTE: Soft woods such as pine, create more creosote, clogging of chimney and produce a less
efficient burn performance.
You should not burn trash or garbage, artificial or paper logs, gift wrapping, treated or
painted wood, or any type of coal or flammable fluids.
The primary air, which is controlled by user, burns the wood. Secondary air is admitted into
firebox through secondary air tubes at top of firebox. This secondary air burns impurities in
the smoke released from initial wood burning. The temperature necessary for this combustion
is maintained through firebrick refractory. If any more technical information is necessary,
contact your local dealer.
Under specific test conditions this heater has been shown to deliver heat at rates ranging from
approximately :
11,900 BTU/HR. on Low
42,100 BTU/HR. on High
This unit is equipped with a standard room air blower.

SECTION II
MASONRY INSERT INSTALLATION
The Model 94NC may be installed using an all masonry fireplace built in accordance with
Uniform Building Code and National Fire Protection Association (NFPA). The first step in
this type of installation is to determine acceptability of the fireplace and chimney for use with a
woodstove, both construction and condition of fireplace are important considerations when installing a woodstove. The chimney should extend at least 3' above roof and
at least 2' above any point of roof within 10'.
CAUTION
REMEMBER TO HAVE YOUR CHIMNEY INSPECTED FOR LEAKS AND BLOCKAGE
BEFORE YOU INSTALL YOUR STOVE. DO NOT CONNECT THIS UNIT TO A
CHIMNEY FLUE SERVING ANOTHER APPLIANCE.

1. The hearth must be of masonry construction and must extend a minimum of 16" in front of
the firebox opening and a minimum of 8" to either side of the firebox opening.
Minimum floor protection under unit must have an R-value of 0.30.
2. If there is no minimum hearth protection from front of firebox opening and front of
masonry hearth, a floor protector must be used in front of hearth to protect combustible
materials. The floor protector must be 3/8" minimum thickness non-combustible material or
equivalent.(See Page 12,13).

POSSIBLE TOOLS NEEDED FOR INSTALLATION
If you decide to install your own stove, there are several hand tools you may need to do the job.
If you do not already have them they are readily available at most hardware stores.
Caulking gun
Large adjustable wrench (may not be needed)
Drop cloths or newspapers
Vacuum cleaner or whisk broom
Flashlight
1 tube of RTV silicone, Code 103 or 106, or high temperature rubber cement rated between
450o F- 600o F
7/32" drill bit and drill
Socket/Ratchet Set
INSTALLATION PREPARATION
Fireplace:
1. Relocate furniture and other materials away from front of fireplace to allow free access to
fireplace.
2. Cover hearth and adjacent floor areas with drop cloths to protect from soiling or marring
surface.
3. Remove existing fireplace damper plate.
4. Thoroughly clean fireplace of ashes and soot.
5. Check chimney and smoke chamber for excessive buildup of creosote or soot. Also, check
for obstructions, such as bird’s nests. If chimney is excessively dirty, clean it or have
someone clean it professionally BEFORE installing or using room heater.
6. If fireplace has an ash dump or outside air provision, these must be sealed off with metal or
tightly packed non-combustible insulation to prevent cold air from entering fireplace
chamber.

FIGURE 5 POSITIONING
MOUNTING TRIM PANELS
NOTE: Mount top trim panel so that it sits in front of
top of side trim panels.
After unit is positioned, mark mounting position of trim
panels as follows:
1. Place side trim panels flat against face of fireplace.
Mark down front edge of trim panel with a pencil to
make a vertical reference line. (See Figure 6).
2. Set top (long) trim panel in place on top of unit.
The panel should be flat against the outside face
of fireplace, and standing vertically. Mark along
lower edge of trim panel with a pencil to make a
reference line for mounting.
3. Slide unit out of fireplace far enough to work
behind trim panel reference lines.
4. Mount side trim panels. (See Figure 6).
a. Position trim panel on reference line.
b. Drill mounting holes in center of trim panel mounting brackets to allow for adjustment in and out if neces-
sary.
c. Mount trim panel using self-tapping screws provided.
5. Place top panel back on reference mark. Take the top trim panel mounting bracket, position bracket so it overlaps rear lip of top trim panel. Drill mounting holes in top of stove using holes in bracket as guide. Tighten
down screws.
6. Now, follow installation procedures listed. Install heater and connect kit in fireplace. If not using one of
installation methods shown on (Page 7), then continue.
7. Slide unit back into fireplace. Check to be sure that trim panels are properly positioned so they lie flat against
front of fireplace. If one or more of panels is out of position, slide unit out and reset by loosening the
mounting screws and repositioning in the slot. Reinstall top trim panel by sliding rear lip of top trim panel
underneath front lip of mounting bracket.
