Minimum Framing Dimension
FRAMING HEIGHT
Framing height is determined by the height of the upper convection air manifold. See the section
"Convection Air Manifold" for details.
Minimum framing dimensions are shown in the illustration below. Do not build into the enclosure.
Min. Ceiling or Enclosure Height = 3-1/2" above framing header.
Max. Header
Depth = 3-1/2"
The enclosure over the fireplace must be a minimum 3-1/2" (89mm) above the framing header.
The ceiling in front of fireplace must be a minimum 3-1/2" (89mm) above the framing header (min. 10"
above the manifold outlet).
NOTE: The enclosure circulates room air. We recommend dry-walling the interior of the enclosure or
using suitable means to prevent dust or building debris from being circulated into the room. MAKE
SURE TO ADD AN ADDITIONAL ½" TO THE DEPTH/WIDTH IF USING DRYWALL.
The fireplace enclosure (chase) conveys room air. This area must be insulated and drywall applied if
on an exterior wall.
