around your appliance, and wherever cold air
could enter the room, with noncombustible
material. It is especially important to insulate
the outside chase cavity between the studs
and under the floor on which the appliance
rests, if the floor is above ground level.

FIreBox FraMInG
Firebox framing can be built before or after the appliance
is set in place. Refer to Figure 2 for firebox dimensions
and framing. Construct firebox framing following Figure
2 for your specific installation requirements. The framing
headers may rest on the top of the firebox standoffs. Do
not bring headers below top of standoffs. note: When
planning your framing and installation, keep in mind that
your gas line will come in on the right side of the box (as
you are facing it) and your electricity will come in on the
left side.
The firebox may be installed directly on a combustible floor
or raised on a platform of an appropriate height. When
the firebox is installed directly on carpeting, tile, or other
combustible material, other than wood flooring, the firebox
shall be installed on a metal or wood panel extending the
full width and depth of the enclosure.
