1) Frame in the enclosure for the unit with framing material.
iMportant: Header must be metal stud. All other framing may be of combustible type such as 2x4 / 2x6 framing materials.
Note: When constructing the framed opening, please ensure there is access to install the gas lines when the unit is installed.
2) For exterior walls, insulate the enclosure to the same degree as the rest of the house, apply vapour barrier and drywall, as per local installation codes.
(Do not insulate the fireplace itself.)

cluding, but not limited to: excessive condensation on glass doors, poor flame package, carbon, blue flames etc. These are not product related
issues.

Important:
Determine the nailing strip position by determing the facing material being used.
Examples:
1/2" non-combustible wall board for clean finish = 2-5/8" adjustment.
1/2" non-combustible wall board + 1/2" tile = 1" of finished material
= 2-1/8" adjustment.
note:
Depending on the material used for finishing, the nailing strips must be set ac-
cordingly so that the finished material is always at the 3-1/8" edge of the flange.
