PRE-INSTALLATION INFORMATION
PLANNING THE INSTALLATION
In planning the installation for the fireplace it is necessary
to determine where the unit is to be installed and whether
optional accessories are desired. Gas supply piping should
also be planned. The following steps represent the normal
sequence of installation. Each installation is unique, how-
ever, and might require a different sequence.
1. Position fireplace in desired location. Refer to the
Fireplace and Framing Dimensions (page 6, Figures 2
and 3,) Fireplace Location (page 8, Figure 5) and
Clearances and Height Requirements (page 9, Figures
6 and 7.)
NOTE: Be sure all cardboard packing material has been
removed from under the unit.
2. Install following the instructions found in this manual.
3. Field wire main power supply to junction box. Refer to
the Electrical Installation section (page 13). (Electrical
connections should only be performed by an experi-
enced, licensed certified service person).
4. Plumb gas line. Refer to the Connect the Gas (page
11, Figure 10) section found in this manual. (Gas
connections should only be performed by an experi-
enced, licensed/certified service person).
5. Complete finish wall material and/or surround.
ADEQUATE COMBUSTION AND
VENTILATION AIR
This heater shall not be installed in a confined space or
unusually tight construction unless provisions are provided
for adequate combustion and ventilation air.
The National Fuel Gas Code, (ANSI Z223.1/NFPA54),
defines a confined space as a space whose volume is less
than 50 cubic feet per 1,000 BTU per hour (4.8m
of the aggregate input rating of all appliances installed in
that space, and an unconfined space as a space whose
volume is not less than 50 cubic feet per 1,000 BTU per
hour (4.8 m
per kw) of the aggregate input rating of all
3
appliances installed in that space. Rooms communicating
directly with the space in which the appliances are installed,
through openings not furnished with doors, are considered
a part of a confined space.
Unusually tight construction is defined as construction
where:
a. Walls and ceilings exposed to the outside atmosphere
have a continuous water vapor retarder with a rating of
1 perm (6 x 10
kg per pa/sec-m
11
gasketed or sealed, and
b. Weather stripping has been added on openable win-
dows and doors, and
per kw)
3
) or less with openings
