Note: Your replace is designed to be used in zero
clearance installations. Wall or framing material
can be placed directly against any exterior surface
on the rear, sides or top of your replace, except
where standoff spacers are integrally attached. If
standoff spacers are attached to your replace,
these spacers can be placed directly against wall
or framing materials.
Use the dimensions shown for rough openings to
create the easiest installation. See Built-In Fire-
place Installation, page 11.
IMPORTANT: Vent-free heaters add moisture to
the air. Although this is benecial, installing re-
place in rooms without enough ventilation air may
cause mildew to form from too much moisture. See
Air for Combustion and Ventilation, page 7.
IMPORTANT: Make sure the replace is level. If
replace is not level, log set will not work properly.

Use the correct gas type (natural or propane/LP)
for your replace. If your gas supply is not cor-
rect, do not install replace. Call dealer where you
bought replace for proper type replace.
