Framing the Firebox.
The fireplace can be located along a wall, raised or at floor level, or in
a corner. There are specific framing measurements for each situation.
The basic opening should have the dimensions shown in Figure 4.
Refer to Figure 1 for the placement of the gas and electrical inlets.
When the basic framing is done and the unit is installed the three (3)
top pieces of the framing should be installed Figure 15.
The fireplace must have a strong and level surface to be placed on. The surface should be made of wood
or a non-combustible material, not carpet.
