FRAMING AND
FINISHING
1) Determine the total thickness of facing
material (e.g. drywall plus ceramic tiles) to
allow the fi nished surface to be fl ush 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, Top Facing Support,
and Top Standoffs before unit is slipped into
position. See section "Unit Assembly Prior
to Installation" for assembly details.
2) Frame in the enclosure for the unit with
framing material. The framed opening is
37-1/4" high x 36-1/4" wide x 17-3/8" deep
(946mm high x 921mm wide x 432mm
deep).

* 'D' is Minimum height to combustible ma-
terials including the Minimum 2-1/2" (64mm)
Top clearance to the Horizontal Flue, see fl ue
clearances in section "Clearances."
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 fi replace itself.)
4) The top of the unit must not be closer than
32" (813mm) to the ceiling.
Note: 40-1/2" (1029mm) is the minimum
height for both fl ex termination or
Simpson Dura-Vent fl ueing.
5) BARCELONA FRAMING NOTE: If
installing the optional Barcelona front, a
non-combustible material 12" (305mm)
above the unit and 6"(153mm) on each
side must be used. The Barcelona Front
also requires steel stud framing above
and on each side of the unit. See Diagram
3 in section "Combustible Mantels" and
Diagram 1 in section "Locating Your Gas
Fireplace."
BARCELONA INSTALLATION NOTE:
When installing the PG36D with the
D
Barcelona Trim into a Regency
46-1/2"*
Mantel Kit, ensure that the combustible
1182mm*
mantel sides and top are 3/8" back
from the front face of the fi replace. See
Diagram 2 in section "Combustible
Mantels."
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
1-1/2" (38mm) clearance from the
fl ue to combustible materials for fl ex
(1-1/4" for Simpson Dura-Vent ).
6) Use steel studs for framing where the
1-1/2" (38mm) clearance from the fl ue to
combustible material cannot be maintained,
e.g. front top header.
