FIREPLACE INSTALLATION
Step 1. Frame these appliances as illus-
trated in Figures 7 through 9 . All framing
details must allow for a minimum clearance
to combustible framing members, as shown
in Figure 4 on page 5 . Also refer to Fire-
place Specifications on Page 8. Headers
may be in direct contact with the appliance
top spacers but must not be supported by
them or notched to fit around them. All
construction above the appliance must be
self supporting. DO NOT USE THE APPLI-
ANCE 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 durrock is
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.
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 SPAC-
ERS BUT MUST NOT BE SUPPORTED BY THEM
OR NOTCHED TO FIT AROUND THEM.
Step 4. Identify the desired location for the
battery pack/ON/OFF switch junction box. This
should be easily accessible and connivent for
use. Avoid installing where the opening could
be blocked by snow, bushes, etc. Also, con-
siderations need to be made to avoid water
infiltration. The electrical junction box must be
positioned within range of the electrical um-
bilical cord (9 feet). Route the umbilical cord
to the box to ensure proper length. Secure the
umbilical cord per appropriate local and na-
tional electrical codes.
NOTE: DIAGRAMS & ILLUSTRATIONS 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 flex-
ible gas line connector and ¹⁄₂ inch shutoff
valve. (See Figure 12 on page 11).

Note: An addiional inlet has been provided on
the left side (see Figure 6 ).
