MONTANA INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Figure 24
Proper Operating Positions of Bi-Fold Doors
CAUTION:
When left closed while burning your fireplace,
firescreens and glass doors will be HOT.
Handle with care!
WARNING!
Do not store fuel within the clearances to com-
bustibles, or in the space required for refueling
and ash removal. See maintenance instructions,
“Clear Space Near the Fireplace”.
3. Glass Doors
Most efficient fireplace operation using glass doors is with
the doors open. When the doors are open, the screen must
be closed. Only Hearth Technologies Inc. glass doors may
be used. See Figure 24 for proper glass door operation.
4. Grate
The factory installed integral grate must be used to hold the
logs from falling out of an open fireplace and to allow air to
pass between the burning logs. It is important to keep the fire
off the hearth and to allow the ashes to collect beneath the
fire, thereby forming a layer of additional heat protection.
5. Firescreen
A firescreen is always provided to control sparks. It must be
closed whenever the fireplace is in use. Glass doors or
firescreens must not be used to hold burning material inside
the fireplace. Only those glass doors specifically tested and
listed for use with the specific fireplace model should be used.
Screens should be closed when the glass doors are closed.
