Note: Illustrations shown in this manual reflect
“typical” installations with nominal dimensions
and are for design and framing reference only.
Actual installations may vary due to individual
design preferences. However, always maintain
minimum clearances to combustible materials
and do not violate any specific installation re-
quirements.

sequence of installation. Each installation is
unique, however, and might require a different
sequence.
