Firebox framing can be built before or after the appliance
is set in place. Construct firebox framing following Figure 2
for your specific installation requirements. Refer to Figure
2 for firebox dimensions. The framing headers may rest
on the top of the firebox standoffs. Do not bring headers
below top of standoffs. When planning your framing
and installation, keep in mind that your gas line will come
in on the right side of the box (as you are facing it) and
your electricity will come in on the left side.
The firebox may be installed directly on a combustible floor
or raised on a platform of an appropriate height. When
the firebox is installed directly on carpeting, tile, or other
combustible material, other than wood flooring, the firebox
shall be installed on a metal or wood panel extending the
full width and depth of the enclosure.
If you live in a cold climate, seal all cracks around your appliance, and
wherever cold air could enter the room, with noncombustible material.
It is especially important to insulate the outside chase cavity between
the studs and under the floor on which the appliance rests, if the floor
is above ground level.
