FIREPLACE MAINTENANCE
CREOSOTE
Glass Replacement
The glass used for the ME43 fireplace doors is
a high temperature ceramic glass. If the glass
breaks,itmustbereplacedwithaceramicglass
suchasNeoceram. Temperedorordinaryglass
will not withstand the high temperatures of
the ELITE ME43 fireplace. Replacement glass
shouldbepurchasedfromyourlocalLHPdealer.
Do not operate the unit with cracked or broken
glass. To remove the glass panel, unscrew the
frame screws, remove the interior frame and
the glass panel.
Formation and Need for Removal
7. Do not use the fireplace again until your
chimney and fireplace have been inspected by
a qualified chimney sweep or a fire department
inspector.
When wood is burned slowly, it produces tar
and other organic vapors, which combine
with expelled moisture to form creosote. The
creosote vapors condense in the relatively
cool chimney flue of a slow-burning fire. As
a result, creosote residue accumulates on the
flue lining. When ignited this creosote makes
and extremely hot fire.
Door Frame Care
Use a glass cleaner and a soft cloth to polish
the frame. Do not use abrasives such as steel
wool or steel pads for they may scratch the
door frame finish.
The chimney shall be inspected at least twice
a year during the heating season to determine
when a creosote buildup has occurred.
Disposing Of Ashes
Remove ashes only when the fire is out and
the ashes are cold (24 to 48 hours after the
fire is out).
Glass Cleaning
When creosote has accumulated it shall be
removed to reduce the risk of a chimney fire.
The ME43 fireplace is designed to keep the
glass clean under normal operating condi-
tions. To clean the glass there are a number of
specially designed cleaners. Your authorized
LHP Dealer can recommend a suitable cleaner.
Regularhouseholdglasscleanerswillnotclean
creosote. Do not use abrasives such as steel
pads, steel wool or oven cleaner as they will
scratch the glass.
Do not leave the ashes in the house as they give
off carbon monoxide and other toxic gases.
When the creosote accumulation is large, a
creosote fire in the chimney can damage the
chimney and overheat the surrounding wood
framing. Creosote formation in a chimney can
be minimized by making sure there is always
visible flame burning, avoid smouldering fires
and by proper refuelling techniques.
WARNING
DisposalofAshes: Ashesshould
be placed in a metal container
withatightfittinglid. Theclosed
container of ashes should be
placed on a non-combustible
floor or on the ground well away
from all combustible materials,
pending final disposal. If the
ashes are disposed of by burial
in soil or otherwise locally dis-
persed, they should be retained
in the closed container until
all cinders have thoroughly
cooled.
Doors Adjustment
CHIMNEY MAINTENANCE
Glass doors may lose their adjustment during
transportation or installation of the fireplace.
A wrong adjustment may cause a loss in
combustion’s efficiency and control. The glass
doors must be parallel, at the same height and
must almost touch each other when closed.
Maximum spacing between the doors is one
sixteenth of an inch (1/16’’).
Regular chimney inspection and maintenance
combined with proper operation will help pre-
vent chimney fires. Keep your chimney clean.
Donotallowmorethana1/16"(1.6mm)build-up
of creosote in your chimney. The amount of
creosote will depend on variables such as fre-
quency of use and type of fire. We recommend
that you follow the instructions below:
1. Initially, inspect the chimney system weekly.
By doing this, you will learn how often it will
be necessary to clean your chimney.
2. Have your chimney cleaned by a qualified
chimney sweep. Chimney maintenance
should only be conducted by a qualified
technical or chimney sweep company.
3. Do not expect chemical cleaners to keep
your chimney clean.
The glass doors can be adjusted by loosening
the three (3) screws of the hinges’ supports
(see fastening screws in Figure 1). If a minor
angular adjustment is needed, you may loosen
only two (2) of the three (3) screws using the
other as a pivot point.
The raincap can be removed for inspection
and/or cleaning of the chimney. Unscrew the
braceswhichattachtheraincaptothechimney.
Using gloves, firmly grip the upper portion of
the rain cap. Turn the cap and lift it off the
chimney.

CHIMNEY FIRES
If you are having a chimney fire, follow these
steps:
1. Close the glass doors and the air inlet.
2. Close the chimney outside air register.
3. Alert your family of the possible danger.
4. If you require assistance, alert your fire
department.

HOW TO USE THE RETRACTABLE DOORS
AND FIRESCREENS
HOWTOUSETHEOUTSIDEAIRREGISTER
(FIREPLACE)
OPERATING THE FIREPLACE
Fuel
The outside air register is located on the upper
part of the top louver. The outside air register
supplies oxygen to the fire and allows control
of the fire when the doors are closed. The fresh
air must come from outside the house (the
air intake must not draw air from inside the
house). This will minimize negative pressure
in the house. The more you slide the register
to the left, the more fresh air into the firebox
and the more accelerated combustion you will
get (see Figure 3). When starting a fire, the
register should always be fully opened.
TheLennoxME43fireplacefeaturesretractable
doors and firescreens in order to allow a wider
view of the fire and save space when the doors
are opened. To retract the doors, simply open
them at 90° and push them into the opening
on the side of the firebox. The same procedure
applies for the retractable firescreens. (see
Figure 2).
The ME43 fireplace is designed to work best
when fueled with seasoned cordwood. Hard-
woods are preferred to softwoods since the
energycontentofwoodisrelativetoitsdensity.
Hardwoods will result in a longer burning fire
and less frequent refueling. A moisture con-
tent of 15% to 20% (seasoned) is preferred.
Excessively wet wood will be difficult to burn
and will result in lower efficiency and increased
creosoting.
Note : Donotoperatethefireplacewithbothfire-
screen and doors closed at the same time.
Do not burn scrap or garbage, treated wood or
wood such as driftwood from the ocean which
has been exposed to salt or other chemicals.
Salt or chemicals can corrode the firebox and
chimney. Do not abuse the unit by burning
large amounts of paper, cardboard, Christmas
tree branches or building construction materi-
als such as pressed wood, plywood or lumber.
Intense firing with these may overheat the
fireplace, causing damage to the unit, a fire,
or even possibly igniting a chimney fire, if the
chimney is creosoted.
FIREPLACE INSTALLATION
Preinstallation
Please Read Before Installing:
1. Before beginning the installation of your
fireplace, read these safety tips and instal-
lation instructions carefully to be sure you
understand them completely. Failure to
followthemcouldcauseafireplacemalfunc-
tion resulting in serious bodily injury and/or
property damage.
First Fires
2. TheME43fireplacehasbeentestedandlisted
toULandULCstandardsbyWarnockHersey
International Inc. These instructions were
written to give you an outline for a fast and
safe installation and trouble-free operation.
The first 5 or 6 fires should be small fires of
shortduration(about30-60minutes). Thefirst
fire should be especially short. This will help
cure the refractory bricks. The first fires may
produce slight smoking and some odor due
to drying of the paint and steel and any dust
accumulated on the fireplace will be burn off at
this time. For this reason the room should be
well ventilated during the first few fires.

Cold Climate Installations
Outside Air Assembly
Climates where temperatures will fall below
32° F (0° C).
The outside air assembly is mandatory for
the fireplace.
The heating performance of the appliance will
vary depending upon the level of insulation,
house design, how the appliance is operated,
etc.
During operation, the fireplace requires air for
combustion and draws air out of the house. It
may starve other fuel burning appliances such
asgasoroilfurnaces. Aswell,exhaustblowers
andblowerdrivenappliancesmaycompetefor
air, causing a negative pressure in the home,
resulting in smoke entering the home from
the fireplace. This situation is aggravated in
modern airtight houses.
If this fireplace is being installed in a cold
climate, it is especially important to seal all
cracks around the fireplace and wherever cold
air could enter the room with noncombustible
material. Also, theoutsideairinletductshould
be wrapped with noncombustible insulation
to minimize the formation of condensation.
Do not place insulation materials directly
against the chimney sections. We recom-
mend that you use the insulated wall radiation
shield since it will maintain the home’s thermal
barrier. AC chimney is NOT recommended in
cold climates.
* The safety metal strip must cover the entire
width of the fireplace.
3. Onaraisedbaseorraisedhearth,a“Z”shape
piece of metal must be fabricated to join the
bottom of the fireplace to the floor.
To overcome this potential problem, the
installation of an outside air assembly is
required to provide outside combustion air to
the fireplace.

These blowers require periodic maintenance. Check the area in front of the blowers and wipe or
vacuum at least once a month during the burn season.
2. The duct and register may be installed above
or below floor level.
3. The outside air register must not be installed
more than 7 feet (2.1 m) above the base of
the fireplace.
4. The outside air assembly must draw air from
outside the house. It must not draw air from
the attic, the basement or a garage.
5. Locate the outside register where it will be
well away from automobile exhaust fumes
or other vents.
6. The outside air register should be installed
where it is not likely to be blocked by snow
or exposed to extreme wind.

In areas with continuous temperatures below
0º F (-18º C), the use of an exterior chimney
increases the likelihood of operating problems
such as low draft, high rate of creosoting and
poor start up characteristics. Exterior chim-
neys are also prone to down-drafting and flow
reversal. Installations located in a basement,
in combination with outside chimneys, are
especially prone to flow reversal. In cold areas,
air cooled chimneys should not be used in an
exterior installation.

UNIVERSAL ROOF SUPPORT INSTALLATION
CHIMNEY CHASE AND MULTIPLE
TERMINATIONS
This support has three possible uses:
Forthepurposeofthismanual,achimneychase
is considered a part of the chimney system
rather than part of a building. The termination
must be placed a minimum of 18" (460mm)
above the chase.
1. For ASHT+ and S-2100+ chimneys, it must be used on a roof to support the chimney.
2. It may be used on a floor, ceiling or roof above an offset to support the chimney above the
offset.
3. It may be used on a floor, ceiling or roof as a supplementary support when the chimney height
exceeds 15 feet (4.6 m.).
For installation where more than one chimney
is located in the same chase or within the same
general area, we suggest that their termina-
tions be separated by at least 16" (410mm)
horizontally and 18" (460mm) vertically. This
separation is to prevent smoke migrating from
one chimney to another (see Figure 23).
Table 7 gives maximum height of supported chimney.
NOTE: For the AC chimney, a support section (AC8SL) must be used every 40’ (12 m) instead
of the ST.
For roof support installation, refer to the instructions provided with the support.
UNIVERSAL OFFSET SUPPORT INSTALLATION
This support is used to support the chimney above an offset. When the chimney offset is used
to traverse a wall, this support may be used on the wall to support the chimney. The maximum
heights are given in Table 7. For offset support installation, refer to the instructions provided
with the support.
