Combustible materials may be installed flush with the front
of the fireplace but must not cover any of the black face-
areas of the fireplace. Noncombustible material (brick,
stone or ceramic tile) may protrude in these areas.
It is not necessary to install a hearth extension with this
fireplace system.
When roughing in the fireplace, raise the fireplace to ac-
commodate for the thickness of the finished floor materi-
als, i.e. tile, carpeting, hard wood, which if not planned for
will interfere with the opening of the lower access door
and the installation of many decorative flashing accesso-
ries.
Objects placed in front of the fireplace should be kept a
minimum of 48" away from the front face.
Combustible mantle clearance
can vary according to the man-
tle depth. Use the graph to help
evaluate the clearance needed.
The U-channel may be removed if framing is faced with a
noncombustible material (cement board) (not supplied).
These same mantle clearance requirements apply to
any combustibles protruding on either side of the
fireplace.
The fireplace is equipped with two 1/4" diameter holes
located in the front left and right corners of the base. For
mobile home installations, the fireplace must be fastened
in place. Use #10 screws, inserted through the holes in
the base to secure. It is recommended that the fireplace
be secured in all installations.
In Canada, mobile home installation may be vented hori-
zontally or vertically. In the United States, it may only be
installed vertically. See "Vertical Venting" or "Horizontal Air
Terminal Installation" for installation.
Proceed once the vent installation is complete.
Move the fireplace into position and secure using the nail-
ing tabs (2 per side) and/or secure to the floor using #10
screws (not supplied).
It is best to frame your fireplace after it is positioned and the
vent system is installed. Use 2x4's and frame to local build-
ing codes. To install the fireplace face flush with the fin-
ished wall, position the framework to accommodate the
thickness of the finished wall. Pull out the four nailing tabs,
attached on either side of the fireplace and secure to the 2x4
framing to facilitate drywall installation.

Note: In order to avoid the possibility of exposed insulation
or vapour barrier coming in contact with the fireplace body, it
is recommended that the walls of the fireplace enclosure be
“finished” (ie: drywall/sheetrock), as you would finish any
other outside wall of a home. This will ensure that clearance
to combustibles is maintained within the cavity.
