PRE-INSTALLATION PREPARATION
FRAMING
1. Frame appliance enclosure as illustrated in
Figures 7 and 8.
Note: If a wall covering is used to line the
enclosure, then all measurements must be
from the surface of the covering.
2. Place the appliance into the framing and
secure it.
Note: If appliance is to be raised above floor
level, a platform must be built to support the
appliance.
3. Install the supply line to the appliance using
a 1/2" NPT black iron gas line terminating 2
/ " above the bottom of the appliance. The

gas line must be installed through the lower
left side access point or alternate access
hole in the bottom of the appliance (see
Figure 16, page 13).
4. Repack insulation around the gas line to
cover any remaining openings in the conduit
sleeve. Prepare the incoming gas line with
teflon tape or pipe joint compound and hook-
up incoming gas line to the flexible gas line.
Note: If 1/2" NPT black iron pipe does not
mate with fitting at the end of flexible gas
line, remove fitting and replace with a 37°
flare 3/4"-12, 1/2" NPT (female) fitting.
WARNING: When finishing
appliance, do not overlap com-
bustible material onto the black
front face. Brick, tile or other
noncombustible materials may
be applied to the face provided
that any gap is between the mate-
rial used and the face is caulked
with a noncombustible caulking.
