Connecting To An Existing Chimney
The Clarity may be connected to an existing ma- 
sonry chimneyby using aSimpson Dura-Vent con- 
version kit #934. 
With this kit and a 4"flex linner in the chimney the flue gases exit through the 4" linner and the outside air comes down the chimney in the space between the chimney and the linner. This method allows you to install the Clarity your chimney and still get the added efficiencyprovided by direct venting.
The use of an existing chimneyas an
air intake is not covered under the ANSI Z21.50-1996. CGA 2.22-M96test methods andthe resulting ITS/WHI product certfication: The code AuthorityHaving Jurisdictionmust be consulted prior to proceeding.

ASSEMBLY
The Clarity is shipped from the factory with the log set packed inside the firebox. To prepare the stove for installation, the log set must be unpacked, the appropriate burner system module for either natural gas or propane installed, and the logs installed.
Removing the Glass Front
NOTE: The glass front is heavy. Be prepared for its weight when lifting it to avoid damage during removal.
The wing doors on each side are held closed by magnets. Push on each door to open it. Loosen the wing nut on each of the two spring-loaded levers. Grasp each lever and push to the rear to disengage the front. To keep the levers in the disengaged position, tighten the wing nuts. Lift the glass front slightly and remove it from the stove. Set the glass aside in a safe place where it will not be damaged.
Remove and Unwrap the Log Set
As shown in the photo in the right column, the log set consists of a back log (1), a center log that has a pilot-view- ing port in the left end (2), two ember strips (3), and a branch that rests on top (4).
In addition, there are two side brick panels and a back brick panel.
The log set components are shipped from the factory individually wrapped and packed inside the stove. Take them out of the stove, then carefully remove the wrapping. Handle the logs gently as they may be damaged easily.

WARNING: Do not abuse the Clarity's glass by striking, slamming, or similar trauma. Do not operate the Clarity Gas Heater with the glass panel removed, cracked or broken. Use only glass supplied by Harman and approved for use with this heater. Do not use substitute materials. Replacement of the panel should be done by a licensed or qualified service person.
Installing the Burner System Module
The burner system module may be installed into the firebox as an integrated unit, and it may help to have an assistant who can assist in guiding the components into position and in making sure that themodule does not siton anywiring components.
Hold the module at a slight angle, then lower it through the openingand rotate upright until it is in position.
Reach underneath and install one of the wing nuts, finger tight. Then check to see that the module is seated correctly.
Asealing gasket affixed to the bottom of the module's base plate will cause the log support plate to be elevated slightly above the plane of the firebox bottom plate. When the two wing nuts are tightened, this gasket will be compressed and a correct fit will be indicated bythelog support plate becoming flush with the bottom of the firebox.

ASSEMBLY
With the module installed and secured, reach through the side access ports and plug in the electrical connections. (Two AMP Mate-N-Lok connectors).
The two electrical connectors may be reached through the side access port
Installthe Branch
Orient the branch with the forked end toward the left rear of the stove and slip it over the two locator pins, one on top of the back logand the other on the top of the center log.
Secure the Glass Front
NOTE: The glass front is heavy. Lift it carefully to prevent damage. Center the glass on the opening and suspend it in place by placing the the tab hooks over the top edge of the opening. Loosen the wing nuts that hold the spring-loaded levers in place. Press the glass slightly against the stove to confirm that it seats properly, then press it firmlyagainst the front while pulling the levers forward to engage them. Tighten the wing nuts.
Install the Back Log and Back Brick Panel
These two components are installed as a single piece. Rest the back brick panel on the shelf located on the back side of the back log, and center it. Holding the two pieces as
a single unit, tilt the top forward slightly and manuever it over the top of the rear burner—taking care that the top
corners clear the front opening. Place it snugly against the back wall and center it.
Installthe Side Brick Panels
These slide into place along each side and are held by friction. The notch in each panel faces the back. Install one side, and then the other.
Install the Ember Strips
The ember strips rest against the front of the firebox and should fit snugly. Guide them toward you and to the outside until theyfit snugly. Check the air slot in the inside of the ember strips to confirm that they do not obstruct it.
Install the Center Log
The center log goes all the way to the back and should be centered. When properly positioned, there should be an even gap alongthe front of the center burner in the cavity in the log. A small portion of the log support frame will be revealed.
The center log has a round viewing port in the left end through which the pilot can be observed.
The complete log set with all logs in the correct position.
