B. Securing and Leveling the Appliance
WARNING! Risk of Fire! Prevent contact with:
• Sagging or loose insulation
• Insulation backing or plastic
• Framing and other combustible materials
Block openings into the chase to prevent entry of blown-
in insulation. Make sure insulation and other materials
are secured.
DO NOT notch the framing around the appliance
standoffs. Failure to maintain air space clearance may
cause overheating and fire.
For details on setting the appliance in the framing, refer to
section 13.A. The diagram shows how to properly position,
level, and secure the appliance (see Figure 9.3). Nailing
tabs are provided to secure the appliance to the framing
members.
• Bend out nailing tabs on each side.
• Place the appliance into position.
• Keep nailing tabs flush with the framing.
• Level the appliance from side to side and front to back.
• Shim the appliance as necessary. It is acceptable to use
wood shims underneath the appliance.
• Secure the appliance to the framing by using nails or
screws through the nailing tabs.
• Secure the appliance to the floor by inserting two screws
through the pilot holes at the bottom of the appliance.
Figure 9.3 shows the fireplace installed on the floor.
However, this fireplace can be elevated off the floor
provided that the fireplace is properly supported by framing
materials and the ceiling clearances are maintained.
