In anticipation of the new UL/ULC solid-fuel insert standard coming out later this year, we updated retailers and installers during Expo in February. For those who missed it, we have a video of the presentation, focusing on new installer requirements. Previously, solid-fuel inserts were listed under UL 1482. Due to field issues, UL created two new bi-national standards: UL/ULC 1390 for masonry fireplaces and UL/ULC 1391 for factory-built fireplaces. In June 2022, UL 1482 was updated to disallow inserts into factory-built fireplaces, leaving a gap for new solid-fuel inserts until the new standards are published later this year.
