Framing And Finishing - Regency PANORAMA P33E Owners & Installation Manual

FRAMING AND FINISHING

1) Determine the total thickness of facing material
(e.g. drywall plus ceramic tiles) to allow the
finished surface to be flush with the front of the
unit. Total facing thickness can vary from 1/2"
(13mm) to 1-1/4" (32mm) thick.
Install Side Nailing Strips, and Top Facing Sup-
port before unit is slipped into position. See
"Unit Assembly Prior to Installation" Section
2) Frame in the enclosure for the unit with framing
material - see next page for dimensions.

*** NOTE: If using the optional Vignette finishing
trim, this can be installed as a 3-sided or 4 sided
finish trim. If choosing to use this as a 4 sided fin-
ish trim the framing would need to be increased in
height by 1-1/4" inches minimum in order for this to
fit. This must be to the finished floor. (Example: 34
3/4" framing height + 1-1/4" to bottom of 4-sided
finishing trim +1/2 thick finished floor = 36 1/2"
total framing height
NOTE: If this is an outside corner, the minimum
distance between the vent and the outside corner
is 6" (15cm) with AstroCap termination cap or
12" (30cm) with Rigid Vent termination cap. (For
example Dura-Vent).

3) 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.)
4) The top of the unit must not be closer than 30"
(762mm) to the ceiling.
5) Combustible material may be brought up to
the top and sides of the unit and be covered
with ceramic tiles, bricks, rock or other suitable
combustible finishing materials.
Note: The unit does not have to be completely
enclosed in a chase. The clearance on
top of the unit is 0" to the standoffs so
combustible building materials can be
laid directly on top of the standoffs.
You must maintain clearance from the
vent to combustible materials for flex
or for Rigid Vent (Refer to "Clearances"
Section).
