zero ClearanCe fireplaCe installation
This insert may be installed in a masonry or factory built/zero
clearance (ZC) fireplace. When installing in a ZC fireplace,
the ZC grate must be removed and the ZC damper must be
removed or secured open. The ZC doors, screen, refrac
-
tory or masonry lining, baffles, and smoke shelf may be
removed if necessary to install the gas insert. However, do
not cut or alter the fireplace components. The removal of
any parts to facilitate installation must not alter the integrity
of the inner or outer shells of the fireplace cabinet. Any parts
removed must be replaceable if the insert is taken out of the
fireplace or the fireplace must be clearly marked with the
metal label that states: "This fireplace has been altered and
is no longer safe to operate." The insert is designed to fit
into a ZC fireplace with a minimum firebox height of 17-1/4"
(438mm). To facilitate this the hood will need to be removed
and discarded (Note: The screws should be replaced in the
insert body). Installation of the flue collar is removable (see
Flue Collar Connection).
If the factory-built fireplace has no gas access hole(s) pro
-
vided, an access hole of 1-1/2" (37.5 mm) or less may be
drilled through the lower sides or bottom of the firebox in
a proper workmanship like manner. This access hole must
be plugged with a non-combustible insulation after the gas
supply line has been installed.
The installer must mechanically attach the marking supplied
with the gas fireplace insert to the inside of the firebox of the
fireplace into which the gas fireplace insert is installed.
