available, non-corrosive leak check  
solution. Be sure to rinse off all leak check  
solution following testing.  
The minimum permanent free opening (in square inches)  
that must be provided by the fireplace chimney or damper  
to vent the flue gases is provided in Table 1. If the free  
opening is smaller than the specified area, do not use this  
appliance.  
Fittings and connections may have loosened  
during shipping and handling.  
The damper must be removed or fixed in a manner in  
which will secure it open. Some jurisdictions require the  
damper to be removed or permanently welded fully open.  
Check with state and local codes.  
High Altitude Derate  
In the USA, input BTU shall be derated 4% (one orifice size)  
per 1000 feet for altitudes above 2000 feet. In Canada, input  
BTU shall be derated 10% (two orifice sizes) at altitudes  
from 2000-4500 feet.  
Be sure that the chimney is completely unobstructed to  
ensure proper ventilation of flue gases including carbon  
monoxide (CO). CO (a poisonous gas) is tasteless,  
odorless, colorless and undetectable without proper

For Use With All Other Fireplaces  
A. Damper Stop:  
The Damper Clamp provided keeps your damper from ac-  
cidentally closing during operation of your set. This Damp-  
er Clamp must be installed onto your Damper at all times.  
NOTE: The damper clamp is designed to hold the damper  
plate open ꢀ inches. However, the damper must be fully  
open when the log set is in operation.  
For Use with BR, BC, SR, SC, TF and TL Series CFM  
Corporation Fireplaces  
This Damper Stop is designed to work on all CFM Corpora-  
tion BR, BC, SR, TF and TL series fireplaces. For all other  
fireplaces, refer to note bellow.  
When installing a decorative gas appliance in a fireplace,  
some local codes require this Damper Stop to be used so  
the Damper will not close completely. To install the Damper  
Stop:  
Install the Damper Clamp onto the edge of the damper plate.  
Attach by securing the bolt provided to the damper plate with  
an adjustable wrench. (Fig. 3)  
If the Damper Clamp does not fit, drill a ¼” hole onto the  
damper plate and install an anchor bolt with a nut, at a 90 de-  
gree angle, so that the damper plate will remain fully open.  
The Damper Locking Bracket is already installed on all BR,  
BC, SR, TF and TL fireplaces. Locate the Damper Locking  
Bracket on the left side of the fireplace’s Combustion Dome.  
(Fig. 1)  
The proper finished installation of the Damper Clamp is  
shown in Figure 4. If the bolt fails to block the damper in  
an open position, the damper should be removed from the  
chimney.  
With the Damper open, align the two slots on either side  
of the cut-out on the Damper Stop with the two small holes  
on the angled portion of the Damper Locking Bracket. At-  
tach the Damper Stop with the Screws provided, as shown  
in Figure 2.  
To check your vent for proper drafting: Light a tightly rolled  
newspaper on one end and place it at the inside front edge  
of the fireplace. Observe the smoke and be sure the vent  
is properly drawing it up the chimney. If the smoke is drawn  
back into the room, extinguish the flame and remove any ob-  
struction until proper venting is achieved. If that fails, check  
with a qualified chimney sweep.  
NOTE: Some of the early fireplace units may not have the holes in  
the end of the Damper Locking Bracket. If this is the case, use the  
Damper Stop as a template to drill two (2) 1/8” holes in the Damper  
Locking Bracket to mount the Damper Stop.

B. Install the Burner/Pan Assembly  
D. Place Sand and Rockwool  
The burner/pan assembly is shipped ready for right-hand  
gas connection. See Section 3.B. for left-hand connection.  
Pour the sand into the burner pan. Sand should follow the  
slope of pan, covering it and the burner tube completely.  
Allow the sand to spill out the front of the pan and over  
the sides onto the fireplace floor.  
Lightly place dime-sized pieces of rockwool evenly on top  
of the sand.  
The gas burns at the point of the least resistance. In case  
of an uneven flame pattern it may be necessary to adjust  
the materials in the pans (using an object such as a long  
screwdriver) to achieve the desired effect.  
Remove the existing cap or gas jet assembly from the  
gas stub in your fireplace. Clean the threads using a wire  
brush or steel wool. Apply Teflon tape or pipe dope to the  
steel fitting and attach the provided brass adapter to the  
stub.  
Place the burner/pan assembly in the fireplace. The pan  
should be centered both front to back and side to side.  
Bend the provided gas connector to facilitate its installation  
between the burner and the gas stub.  
Attach one end of the gas connector to the brass elbow  
or safety pilot fitting. Attach the other end to the brass  
adapter at the gas tube.

Personal Injury Risk  
The flame color will stabilize after ten minutes of  
operation.  
Failure to position the parts in accordance  
with the diagrams provided with the log  
packages or failure to use only parts  
approved with this appliance may result in  
property damage or personal injury.  
G. Inspect the Venting System  
The fireplace venting system is designed and constructed to  
develop a positive flow adequate to remove flue gases to the  
outside atmosphere. See fireplace installation instructions.  
A spillage test must be made before the installed  
appliance is left with the consumer  
Install the logs using the installation instructions included  
with them.  
Close all doors and windows in the home.  
Light the log set.  
After three minutes, test with a smoke match, smoke  
candle, stick incense or cigarette one inch below the top of  
the opening (lintel) moving across the full width. If spillage  
(smoke drawn into the room) occurs, it will most likely be  
near the top, outside corners.  
Light the burner as outlined in the operating section.Allow  
the flame pattern to stabilize. If you are satisfied with the  
flame pattern go to the next step. If you want more or less  
flame around the front log, turn off the gas and move the  
burner pan backward or forward.  
Once you are satisfied, turn on the gas and go on to the  
next step.  
Possible Cures if Spilling Occurs  
Arrange the top logs as shown in your log set up  
instructions. Light the burner as outlined in the operating  
instructions and allow the flame to stabilize.  
Spread the lava rock around the outside of the burner  
pan on the floor of the fireplace. If possible, cover the gas  
connector with the cinders.  
The damper should be fully open.  
The fireplace opening needs to be reduced by adding a  
drop panel across the top under the lintel.  
The air supply from outdoors needs to be increased. Open  
the outside air kit if the appliance is so equipped, or crack  
open a door or window.

ARRANTY  
For CFM Corporation Decorative Gas  
Appliances  
IN NO EVENT SHALL ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY PRE-  
SCRIBED BY LAW (NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING  
EXPRESS EXCLUSION) REMAIN IN EFFECT AFTER EXPI-  
RATIONS OF WARRANTIES SET FORTH IN PARAGRAPHS  
A AND B.  
CFM Corporation extends the warranties specified in para-  
graphs A and B below with respect to its Vermont Castings  
Decorative Appliances (the “Gas Appliance”), including CFM  
Corporation supplied accessories and components referred  
to in those paragraphs, subject to the following conditions and  
limitations:  
A. Gas Appliances, electrical and manual components,  
glass panels, all sealants or adhesives and optional acces-  
sories (exclusive of CFM Corporation supplied decorative logs  
which are covered by a separate warranty under paragraph B  
below):  
(1) These warranteis extended only the the Gas Appliance in-  
stalled in the continental United States, including Alaska, and  
Canada; only if and so long as the accordance with the instal-  
lation and operating instructions furnished therewith; and only  
if and so long as Gas Appliance is not removed from its original  
installation.  
Within one year from the date of manufacture of the gas ap-  
pliance, CFM Corporation will repair, or replace (at our option) a  
defective part without charge.  
(2) These warranties are limited to only the component parts  
manufactured and supplied by CFM Corporation. The use of  
components manufactured by others with the Gas Appliance  
(except for a listed Type B venting system and defined in the in-  
stallation instructions) could create serious safety hazard, may  
result in the denial of certification by recognized national safety  
agencies, and could be in violation of local building codes.  
B. Cement or ceramic fiber log components:  
Within one year from the date of manuracture of the gas ap-  
pliance, CFM Corporation will replace a defective part without  
charge. Within one year from the date of manufacture of the  
gas appliance, CFM Corporation will provide a replacement for  
a defective part to the homeowner, but assumes no liability for  
incurred labor cost.  
(3) The Gas Appliance must be operated at all times in accor-  
dance with the operating instruction furnished therewith. The  
Gas Appliance is designed to burn either natural or propane  
gas only. Burning conventional fireplace fuels such as wood,  
coal, or any other solid fuel will cause damag to the Gas Ap-  
pliance, will produce excessive temperatures and will result in  
fire hazard.  
The foregoing warranties gives you specific legal rights and  
you may also have other rights which vary from state to state.  
Some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied  
warranty may last, so the limitation specified above on the du-  
ration of any implied warranty prescribed by law may not apply  
to you. Similarly, some states do not permit the exclusion or  
limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above  
exclusion of such damages may not apply to you.  
(4) These warranties are limited to repair, replacement or fur-  
nishing a replacement for sale, as specified in Paragraphs A  
and B, for a part found to CFM Corporation satisfaction, after  
examination, to be defective in materials or workmanship under  
normal conditions, use and service.  
In order to obtain performance of any of the above warranty  
obligations, write to the CFM Corporation at this address:  
CFM Corporation  
410 Admiral Blvd.  
Mississauga, Ontario Canada L5T 2 N6  
Attention: Manager of Warranty Services  
(5) All obligations with respect to these warranties may be fully  
discharged by CFM Corporation refunding the wholesale price  
of a defective part.  
(6) Except as otherwise expressly specified in Paragraphs A  
and B. NONE OF THESE WARRANTIES COVER AND CFM  
CORPORATION SHALL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR, ANY  
CONSTRUCTION, INSTALLATION, LABOR, TRANSPORTA-  
TION OR OTHER COSTS OR EXPENSES ARISING FROM  
A DEFECTIVE PART, ITS REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT OR  
OTHERWISE, NOR SHALL CFM CORPORATION IN ANY  
EVENT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDEN-  
TAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, EXCEPT TO THE EX-  
TENT PROVIDED BY LAW. THERE ARE NO IMPLIED WAR-  
RANTIES WITH RESPECT TO THE GAS APPLIANCE, ITS  
COMPONENTS AND ACCESSORIES (INCLUDING IMPLIED  
WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A  
PARTICULAR PURPOSE), ALL OF WHICH ARE HEREBY EX-  
PRESSLY INCLUDED.  
Since local building requirements may vary greatly through-  
out the country, users of CFM Coproation products should de-  
termine in advance whether there are any building code restric-  
tions on the use of a specified product. CFM CORPORATION  
MAKES NO REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY REGARD-  
ING, AND SHALL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR, ANY BUILD-  
ING CODE COMPLIANCE. The foregoing warranties give you  
specific legal rights and you may also have other rights which  
vary from state to state.
