FIREPLACE INSTALLATION
Step 1. Frame these appliances as illustrated in
Figures 8-10, Page 9. All framing details must
allow for a minimum clearance to combustible
framing members, as shown in Figure 3, Page
5. Also refer to Fireplace Specifications on Page
8. Headers may be in direct contact with the
appliance top spacers but must not be sup-
ported by them or notched to fit around them.
All construction above the appliance must be
self supporting. DO NOT USE THE APPLIANCE
FOR STRUCTURAL SUPPORT.
NOTE: The framed depth from a framed wall,
must always be measured from a finished
surface. If a wall covering such as Durock
to be attached to the rear wall, then the depth
must be measured from the wall surface. It
is important that this dimension be exact.
NOTE: Non-combustible framing members are
not required, but are recommended.
Optional Drain Pan
Step 2. Level the firebox by checking the top
edge of the firebox. Shim if necessary.
Step 3. The fireplace should be secured to the
side framing members, using the full length
nailing flange located on both sides of the
fireplace. Use 8d nails, or screws.
IMPORTANT: UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES
SHALL THE FIREBOX TOP SPACERS BE RE-
MOVED OR MODIFIED. THE HEADER MAY BE
IN DIRECT CONTACT WITH THE TOP SPACERS
BUT MUST NOT BE SUPPORTED BY THEM OR
NOTCHED TO FIT AROUND THEM.

NOTE: DIAGRAMS & ILLUSTRATIONS ARE NOT TO SCALE.
ROUTING GAS LINE
Route a 1/2" (13 mm) gas line along the inside
of the right side framing as shown in Figure 5.
Gas lines must be routed, constructed and made
of materials that are in strict accordance with
local codes and regulations.
All appliances are factory-equipped with a
flexible gas line connector and 1/2" shutoff
valve. (See Figure 12, Page 10).
Figure 6
NOTE: An additional inlet has been provided
on the left side (see Figure 7, Page 8).
CAUTION
If propane is used, be aware
that with a tank that is too
small (i.e., under 100 lbs, if
this is the only gas appliance
in the dwelling—see NPFA
58), there may be a loss of
pressure. This can result in
insufficient fuel delivery that
can cause sooting, delayed
ignition, or other malfunctions.
Any damage resulting from
an improper installation is
not covered by the limited
warranty.
