INSTALLATION Framing Dimensions The dimensions given below are minimum framing distances necessary to maintain safe clearances between the Ravelle™ 30 gas fireplace and combustible materials. If the unit is to be vented horizontally with a 90º elbow right off the top of the fireplace and directly through an exterior wall, then a hole 9-1/4” x 10-3/4” (235 mm x 273 mm) square with a center line 34” (864 mm) above the base of the fireplace will accommodate the wall thimble and direct vent pipe. T he gas line should be routed to the left side of the unit. The access 41” hole in the fireplace for the gas line is 6-1/4” (159 mm) back from (1041mm) the front edge and 2-1/8” (54 mm) up from the base of the unit. If 1” the gas line enters the unit from the right side, the piping will need to (533mm) be disconnected to remove the fan. If a wall-mounted on/off switch or thermostat is to be used, these 41-1/” wires should be routed to the left front of the unit for access to the (1054mm) fireplace. The wire should be fed through the gas line hole, along the Figure 3 gas line, to the valve. The electrical power supply wiring should be routed to the right rear of the unit. Note: The fireplace may be placed directly on wood or non-combustible flooring, but not on vinyl floor covering or carpet. 14-1/8”... -
Page 8: Raised Installations
Raised Installations Hearth Extension Considerations The fireplace may be raised by building a platform of sufficient strength to It is IMPORTANT to note that there is a 1” space between the base of support the fireplace and pipe. When building a raised hearth extension, the fireplace and the bottom of the fireplace face. See Page 6 for hearth please see the note below regarding height of the fireplace in relation to extension requirements. This space will allow a 7/8” (22 mm) thick hearth the thickness of the hearth extension material. extension (including backer board if desired). Should a hearth extension thicker than 7/8” (22 mm) be desired, the height of the fireplace must be raised the thickness of that hearth extension less the 7/8” (22 mm). For example, if a 2-7/8” (73 mm) thick cultured stone is to be placed on the floor to serve as the hearth extension, then the fireplace must be raised 2” (possibly using 1/2” (13 mm) plywood over 2 x 4’s laid flat) to accommodate the 2-7/8” (73 mm) stone. It is important to note that if the fireplace is raised, then it is necessary to raise the height of the header above the stand-offs an equal amount.

In the bottom of the the heat output and air movement to different rooms in the house. Ravelle 30 gas fireplace are four inch and six inch (152 mm) diameter knock-out plates. Four inch (102 mm) or six inch (152 mm) diameter Grills: If your Ravelle™ 30 gas fireplace is installed in a cabinet or a chase, return air ducting may be fastened to the bottom of the fireplace, run into heat can be drawn from these enclosures and circulated into the living another room in the house and terminate with a grill. When the fireplace area by cutting one or two openings covered by a register or grill. is burning, with or without the fireplace fan running, air is drawn from a distant room (lowering the pressure in that room) through the return Opening and Grill into air duct into the bottom of the fireplace. The air then passes through the Adjoining Room outer shell and heat exchanger of the fireplace and into the room in which the fireplace is located. The hot air in the fireplace room moves through an open doorway or hall into the low pressure room from which the air was drawn. This system functions well by convection even without the use of the fireplace fan. A six inch (152 mm) diameter ducting moves more air than four inch diameter ducting. Ducting in uninsulated areas of a house (i.e. in the crawl space) should be wrapped in insulation to ensure maximum heat retention. Check local building codes, some areas may require firestops when the duct passes from room to room. Note: Grill can be in the Wall, Ceiling, or Floor.
