Fireplace Placement Requirements
Minimum Framing Dimensions
The 1/2" (13 mm) stand-offs along the sides and back, and the 2-1/2" (64 mm) 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.
