INSTALLATION

WARNING: The electric masonry insert

must be installed in masonry wall and

comply with the MINIMUM dimensions:

For EIR1224: 28.2” (71.6cm) wide, 25.5”

(64.8cm) high and 13.5” (34.3cm) deep.

For EIR2232: 33.5” (85.1cm) wide, 31”

(78.8cm) high and 15” (38.2cm) deep.

NOTE: To prevent personal injury always use a licensed

electrician to install new outlets or circuits.

NOTE: To prevent personal injury always use a profes-

sional to cap the chimney flue or cut a hole in the

existing fireplace for wiring.

NOTE: If returning your fireplace to its original use (ex.

wood burning), it should be inspected by the local build-

ing department prior to reduce the risk of fire and per-

sonal injury.

1. Seal all drafts and vents with non-fibrous insulation

materials to prevent chimney debris from falling onto

the fireplace insert. Do not install into an existing

fireplace that is prone to dampness.

2. Cap the top of the chimney flue and close damper (if

applicable) to prevent rain from entering.

3. Plan your electric power supply. A 15 amp, 120 volt

circuit is required. A dedicated circuit is preferred

but not essential in all cases. A dedicated circuit

will be required if after installation, the circuit breaker

or fuse trips. Additional appliances may exceed the

current rating of the circuit breaker or fuse.

4. Install and outlet into the existing fireplace. If an

outlet is not installed into the existing fireplace the

power cord can also run along the front of the hearth

to an outlet near the fireplace.

5. Ensure the insert power is off. (See operation page

8). Plug the masonry insert into the outlet and slide

the unit into the existing fireplace.

6. Push the insert into the fireplace and center within

the opening. Adjust the four feet on the bottom of

the insert by turning counter clockwise to raise and

clockwise to lower so that is level with the existing

fireplace hearth.

NOTE: The masonry insert can be used with existing

fireplace bi folds and screens.

Due to the heat produced from the heater, existing

fireplace bi folds and screens must provide adequate

air flow in front of the unit. Do not use existing fireplace

doors that close, sealing off the masonry insert from

the room
