Initial Installation
QUALIFIED INSTALLERS ONLY
INTRODUCTION:
This section of the owner’s manual is for the use of qualied technicians only. Fireplace placement,
hearths, facings, mantles, and venting terminations will be covered, as well as the gas and electric
systems. There are several installation safety guidelines that must be adhered to. Please carefully read
the safety precautions at the front of this manual.
Warning: Clearances must be sufcient to allow access for maintenance and service.
PLACEMENT:
The location for the replace can be along a wall, raised or at oor level, or in a corner. There are specic
framing measurements for each situation. The basic opening should have the dimensions shown below
in Figure 10.
The replace 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.
The 21 inches (549 mm) dimension
takes into account the 1 inch (25 mm)
standoff on the back of the rebox. The
framing boards may touch the standoffs,
but no insulating material can be
placed between the frame and the
standoffs.
The gas line,
3
/8” NPT, should be brought
to the right side of the replace. If this
set up is inconvenient, the electrical wire
and the gas line conguration can be
reversed.
The location should be chosen so the
replace will be at least 36 inches (914
mm) from drapes, doors and other
combustibles. The replace opening
should also be at least 7 inches (178
mm) from the nearest perpendicular wall
(sidewall to the edge of the opening).
