Restrictions for Outdoor installations:
• Outside Air Kit must be installed and
fully open on the outdoor installation. On
the indoor installation is optional unless
mandated by local building codes.
• Minimum chimney height for the outdoor in-
stallation is 7' 9" (one 4 foot pipe section).
• Minimum 2" chimney clearance is required
when system height is less than 15'.
• Only non-combustible materials are allowed
on the front face (Front Fireplace Frame) and
around the perimeter within 5” (full length of
top spacers) on the top and 1/2" on the sides
(see Figures 1, 51 & 52).
Combustible materials may project beyond the
sides of the fi replace opening as long as they
are kept within the shaded areas illustrated in
Figure 7.
CLEARANCES
Minimum clearance to combustibles for the
appliance is as follows: sides and back - 1” (25
mm), fl oor - 0” (0 mm), adjacent wall - 12” (305
mm), ceiling - 37 1/2” (953 mm).
Note: Clearance at the nailing tab is 0" (0mm)
(see Figure 25).
Note: Adjacent wall considerations are for
an adjacent wall on only a single side. Walls
should not be placed at minimum distance at
both sides of the fi replace.
CAUTION
To ensure that the outside air
kit remains open for an outdoor
installation, this fi replace should
not have a combustion air gate
control installed (OAKG-OD). If
this unit is installed indoors,
you must install the outside
combustion air cover provided or
an optional outside air kit gate
(OAKG-OD) before the fi replace
is framed in place.

LOCATION OF FIREPLACE
Carefully select the proper location for heat
circulation, aesthetics, chimney obstructions,
air inlet location and clearance to side wall(s).
With proper pre-planning, a slight adjustment
of a few inches can save considerable time and
expense later during construction and assembly.
See
Figures 5 & 6 for examples.
When locating the fi replace, consideration
must be given to combustibles and fi nal
fi nishing. See Figure 5 and confi ne the fi nal
location of combustible fi nish materials to
the "Safe Zone."
DO NOT permanently place furniture or other
items such as decorative pillows within 60"
of the fi replace front face.
Outdoor Locations - Carefully consider the
position of the fi replace opening with respect
to the location of adjacent or nearby stair-
wells, doors, windows, walk ways and over
hanging trees, patios and wires.
