Installation
(for qualified installers only)
The fireplace (and
firebox) must be made
level and plumb during
installation. Use shims
under the fireplace to
properly level the
fireplace.
Lifting handles are available
separately (98500711). They
attach to the nail down brackets.
The ember strip
insures no ember falls
between the fireplace
and hearth onto the
combustible floor.

Travis Industries
recommends the chase
around the fireplace be
insulated. This insulation
should only be placed
between the framing
members and secured so
it does not fill the space
between the fireplace and
standoffs.
Standoffs (also
located on back)
Bend this bracket down
on each side and nail it
to the floor, securing the
fireplace in position.
