s long as the required clearance to combustibles is
maintained, the most desirable and benefi cial location for an appliance is in the center of a building, thereby
allowing the most effi cient use of the heat created. The location of windows, doors and the traffi c fl ow in the
room where the appliance is to be located should be considered. If possible, you should choose a location
where the vent will pass through the house without cutting a fl oor or roof joist.
We suggest that our gas
hearth products be installed
and serviced by professionals
who are certied in the U.S.
