Fireplace Placement Requirements

Minimum Framing Dimensions

The 1/2" stand-offs along the sides and back, and the 2-1/2" stand-offs on top of the fireplace
separate the fireplace from combustible materials (e.g.: combustible framing members, plywood,
sheetrock, paper-backed insulation). The stand-offs may contact the framing members but no material
may be placed between the stand-offs.
This fireplace may be placed in a bedroom. Please be aware of the large amount of heat this appliance
produces when determining a location.

The fireplace enclosure
must not be less than

location near the gas
line (include an extra 3'
length for hookup).
Route the electrical line to a
position at the left front of
the fireplace.
• Fireplace must be installed on a level surface capable of supporting the fireplace and vent
• Fireplace must be placed directly on wood or non-combustible surface (not on linoleum or carpet)
• Due to the high temperature of the fireplace, it should be located out of traffic and away from furniture
and draperies.

Clearances

• When installed, walls in front of the fireplace must be a minimum 8-1/2" to the side of the fireplace
facing (drywall standoff).

fireplace (e.g. drapes, doors)
• Fireplace must be placed so the vents below and above the glass do not become blocked
