CONVENTIONAL FIREPLACE INSTALLATION
Conventional installation of this fireplace involves installing fireplace along with the
corner, face, or cabinet mantel and hearth base accessories against a wall in your home.
Follow the instructions below to install the fireplace in this manner.
For conventional installation, it is recommended you use the
cabinet mantel or hearth base specified in this manual. Surface
clearances may not be sufficient with other cabinet mantels and
hearth bases. This may create a fire hazard. See Accessories,
page 38 for correct mantels and hearth bases.
Note:
The instructions below show installation using the GMC11F/GMC12U
series cabinet mantel and the G3333F/G3334U hearth base accessories. The hearth
base accessory shown is optional for this installation. You can install fireplace and
cabinet mantel directly on the floor.
1. Assemble cabinet mantel and hearth base. Assembly instructions are included
with each accessory.
