A. Straight up through ceiling (See Page 6 Figures 1 and 2). This is a simple installation normally used when installing a Model 80ZC inside an existing room and in some cases, in new construction. Refer to (Page 6 Figure 3) if an offset to clear an obstruction is needed. WARNING: Only one pair of 15 degree or 30 degree offsets can be used.

An easy means of determining if a proposed alternate floor protector meets requirements listed in the appliance manual is to follow this procedure: 1. Convert specification to R-value: R-value is given—no conversion is needed.
FRAMING CONSTRUCTION AND INSTALLATION CHOOSING 80ZC CABINET INSTALLATION LOCATION Except as noted, the 80ZC can be installed almost anywhere you desire. There are, however, a few clearance and framing restrictions that must be followed. See Figure 17, Figure 18, and Figure 19 to make sure that these clearance restrictions are met.

CLEANING THE UNIT A. The unit should be lightly sanded with fine sandpaper or steel wool, then repainted or touched up with high temperature black paint. B. If the unit is located in a moist or damp location, check thoroughly for signs of condensation during times when the unit is not in use. C. When the heating season is over, the unit can be cleaned out completely with a wire brush or cloth to help eliminate ash and burned wood smell. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS 1.
PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE/ SAFETY PRECAUTIONS CHIMNEY A. The chimney should be cleaned as necessary to remove creosote, soot, leaves, birds nests, etc. CREOSOTE-FORMATION AND NEED FOR REMOVAL 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 slowburning fire. As a result, creosote residue accumulates on the flue lining.
