GENERAL INSTALLATION INFORMATION

Carefully select the best location for installation of your vent-free
firebox. The following factors should be taken into consider-
ation:
Clearance to side wall, ceiling, woodwork and windows.
See “Clearances/Height Requirements on page 8. Minimum
clearances to combustibles must be maintained.
Location must not be affected by drafts caused by kitchen
exhaust fans, ceiling fans, return air registers for forced air
furnaces / air conditioners, windows or doors.
Installation must provide adequate ventilation and combus-
tion air.
DO NOT INSTALL THIS FIREBOX IN A BEDROOM
OR BATHROOM.
Location should be out of high traffic or windy or drafty
areas.
DO NOT INSTALL WHERE CURTAINS, FURNITURE,
CLOTHING OR OTHER FLAMMABLE OBJECTS ARE LESS THAN 42" FROM FRONT OF HEATER.
Never obstruct the front opening of the vent-free firebox or restrict the flow of combustion and ventilation air.
Minimize modifications to existing construction. Refer to Figure 3 below for location suggestions.

kept clear and free from these combustible materials.
