DETAILED INSTALLATION STEPS
Step 1. FRAMING
Frame these appliances as illustrated in Figure
13 on Page 16. All framing details must allow
for a minimum clearance to combustible fram-
ing members as shown in Table 5 and Figures
9–11 on Page 14.
If the appliance is to be elevated above floor
level, a solid continuous platform must be
constructed below the appliance.
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.
Secure the fireplace to the side framing mem-
bers using the unit's nailing flanges - one
top and bottom on each side of the fireplace
front (see Figure 12). Use 8d nails or their
equivalent.
Securing Unit to Framing
by Nailing Flanges
Use Top Flange for
1/2" Thick Drywall
Front of Fireplace
Use Center Flange
for Flush Mount
Use Bottom Flange for
5/8" Thick Drywall
Left Side Front Corner of Fireplace Shown
(Same requirements for right side)
NOTE: The nailing flanges, combustible
members and screw heads in areas directly
adjacent to the nailing flanges are EXEMPT
from the 1/2" clearance to combustible
requirements for the firebox outer wrapper.
Combustible framing may be in direct contact
with the nailing flanges and may be located
closer than 1/2" from screw heads and the
firebox wrapper in areas adjacent to the
nailing flanges. Frame the opening to the
exact dimensions specified in the framing
details in these Installation Instructions.
