LOCATION OF FIREPLACE
Carefully select the best location for installation of your unvented fireplace. The following factors should be taken into
consideration.
•
Clearance to side wall, ceiling, woodwork and window or other combustibles. See Clearances and Height Requirements
section on page 17. Minimum clearances to combustibles must be maintained.
•
Location must not be affected by drafts caused by kitchen exhaust fans, ceiling fans, return air registers for forced air
furnaces/air conditioners, windows or doors.
•
Installation must provide adequate ventilation and combustion air.
•
DO NOT INSTALL THE DFX MODEL IN A BEDROOM OR BATHROOM.
THE DBX MODEL MAY BE INSTALLED IN A BEDROOM, BUT NOT IN A BATHROOM.
•
Location should be out of high traffic areas and away from furniture and draperies due to heat from firebox.
•
Never obstruct the front opening of the unvented fireplace or restrict the flow of combustion and ventilation air.
•
Minimize modifications to existing construction. See Figure 18 below for location suggestions.
•
Do not install in the vicinity where gasoline or other flammable liquids may be stored. The unvented firebox must be
kept clear and free from the combustible materials.
