BUILT-IN FIREBOX INSTALLATION
Built-in installation of this fi rebox involves
installing fi rebox into a framed-in enclosure.
This makes the front of fi rebox fl ush with wall.

must follow clearances shown in Figure 6.
Follow these instructions to install fi rebox in
this manner.

rough opening layout in Figure 7a. Adjust
framing so that fi rebox is fl ush with fi n-
ished wall surface. If installing in a corner,
use dimensions in Figures 7b, 7c and 7d
for rough opening.
