Full Surround Mantel
The Chateau Full Surround has been designed for
installation with the DVT38S2 Chateau fireplace.
Hinged face panels on the surround allow access to the
fireplace control box and gas valve. Accurate framing of
the fireplace is critical to proper installation.
Refer to the instructions supplied with the Surround for
complete details.
CAUTION: If you are framing with the plan to use the
surround mantel mentioned above, it is extremely
critical to meet the dimensions provided, especially if
the mantel is not available at the time of framing.
NOTE: In the event the mantel is not available at the
time of framing the unit/valve box, you must make
the spacer on the left side of the valve box in order to
access the valve box door through the opening in the
mantel.

Position the DVT38S2 fireplace in the rough opening.
Measure up from the floor 45¹⁄₄” and attach the control box
spacer (G) to the inside of the wall stud. Attach a fram-
ing cross piece between the studs, above the control box
spacer. Fit the control box tight against the spacer (G) and
the frame piece above. Fasten the control box to the frame
piece with 1¹⁄₄” screws through the holes in the top of the

NOTE: The vertical dimension is shown from the floor
where the fireplace sits. If a marble hearth extension, or
other type of material is used, the vertical framing will
increase by the thickness of the material used to ac-
commodate the height difference when the mantel sits
on the hearth extension.
CAUTION: If you are framing with the plan to use the
CHFN0495, CHWC495, CHFPR495 surround mantel,
it is extremely critical to meet the dimensions provided,
especially if the mantel is not available at the time of
framing. A framing stud is allowed to be placed on
the inside of the 6” (152 mm) standoff on the side
of the unit where the conduit is located to meet the
24¹⁄₈” ( 613 mm) critical dimension from the center
of the unit.
The unit is certified with a 3” (76 mm) standoff (to
combustible) on the side of the unit where the conduit is
located, therefore; it is permissible to locate stud on the
inside of the standoff at 3” (76 mm) from the body of the
unit. (Fig. 63)
NOTE: The 6” (152 mm) standoff is sent out with the
unit for the purpose of making the glass symmetrical
with respect to the overall width of the unit.
