                        HOW THIS FIREPLACE WORKS As wood is burned in the fireplace, room air enters  the fireplace through its “cool air inlet”, circulates  around the firebox, and exits the fireplace through its  “warm air outlet.” See Figure 2. This air circulation  cools the firebox.  WARNING Do not block or restrict air  circulation in any manner.  Blocking or restricting  the air flow will cause the  firebox to reach hazardous  temperatures. Warm Air  Outlet  WARNING The fireplace will go  through a curing process  (bur
