2. When the appliance is installed directly on carpeting,

tile or other combustible material other than wood
flooring, the appliance shall be installed on a metal
or wood platform.

3. Pull out the nail tabs which are located on each side

of the fireplace. Move the fireplace into position and
secure to the floor with screws or nails through the
holes provided in the bottom flanges of the side cas-
ing. After checking unit for squareness, secure top of
fireplace to the framing with screws or nails using the
nailing tabs provided.

4. Cold climate installation recommendation: when

installing this fireplace against a non-insulated exte-
rior wall or chase, it is recommended that the outer
walls be insulated to conform to applicable insulation
codes. Drywall should be installed around the unit to
prevent insulation from contacting the body.

Note: Never allow the vapor barrier to contact

the outer case of this fireplace or venting.

5. Drywall can be extended flush on the bottom, top

and to the outermost part of the sides of the fire-
place.

6. If you are installing the top vent unit with a 90° elbow

installed, the minimum clearance to combustibles
directly above the 90° elbow is 2” (51 mm).

7. Noncombustible materials such as brick and tile

can be extended across the face of the fireplace. If
brass trim kit is going to be installed, brick and tile
will have to be installed flush with the front of this ap-
pliance.

Island installation is possible as long as the horizontal portion of the
vent system does not exceed maximum recommended horizontal run
as outlined in the venting chart on Page 10. When you install your
fireplace as in position ‘B’, ‘D’ or ‘E’, (Fig. 1) a minimum of 1” (25mm)
clearance must be maintained from the perpendicular wall and the
front of the appliance.

Framing and Finishing

1. Choose a fireplace location and frame in accordance

with the fireplace dimensions specified on Page 4 of
this manual. When using a surround, the fireplace
must be flush to the wall. Also, allowances must
be made for drywall, tile or any other facing used
around the unit.
