Gas Line Routing
Plan the routing of the gas line before proceeding.
Utilize the existing hole for the gas line of the factory-
built fi replace.
If the fi replace has no access hole, carefully drill an
access hole of 1.5 inch (38 mm) or less through the
lower sides or bottom of the fi rebox. The access hole
must be plugged with non-combustible insulation after
the gas supply line has been installed.
See Dimensions section for detailed location of gas
inlet. Also, take into consideration whether or not a fan
or shut-off valve will interfere when planning routing of
the gas line.
Existing Glass Doors and Wire Screens
Existing glass doors must be permanently removed
prior to installing the 700 insert.
