BUILT-IN FIREBOX INSTALLATION
Built-in installation of this rebox involves install-
ing rebox into a framed-in enclosure. This makes
the front of rebox ush with wall. Optional brass
trim accessories are available (see Accessories,
page 31). The brass trim will extend past sides
of rebox approximately 1/2". This will cover
the rough edges of the wall opening. If installing
a mantel above the rebox, you must follow the
clearances shown in Figure 6, page 10. Follow
the instructions below to install the rebox in
this manner.
