Fireplace Installation

Surface Installation

CAUTION: Two people may
be required for various steps
of this procedure.
Choose a location which has
a minimum of two (2) wall studs
available for mounting.
Choose your method of
supplying power to the unit:
• Plug in to an existing outlet or
install an outlet nearby.
• Hard wire the fireplace. Follow
the hard wiring instructions on
page 9.
WARNING: Do not attempt to
wire your own new outlets or
circuits. To reduce the risk of
fire, electric shock or injury to
persons, always use a licensed
electrician.
Ensure that the Main On/Off
Switch is set to the Off position
(refer to Operation section)
and that the circuit on which
the fireplace is to be installed
has the power cut off at the
service panel until installation is
complete.
Remove the mirror from the
12
fireplace:
• Lay fireplace on its back.
• Remove two (2) Phillips screws
from each of the two (2) mirror
brackets (Figure 2, page 9).
• Remove mirror brackets.
• With one hand keeping
pressure on the mirror, tilt the
fireplace upright and slightly
forward to allow the mirror to
fall out of the inside framing.
CAUTION: Mirror is not
tempered. Do not bump
or drop the mirror to avoid
breakage and personal injury.
• Remove mirror from fireplace.
Position the fireplace on a
wall at the position where it will be
mounted (Figure 9). Use a bubble
level (one is supplied) to ensure
that fireplace is level on the wall.
Ensuring that at least two
(2) key-holes line up with a wall
stud (key-holes are spaced at
four (4) inch (10.2 cm) centers),
mark the location of four (4) screw
locations on the wall (through
key-holes).
