EDGE 60 Pellet Fireplace
E. Finishing Material
NOTICE: Non-combustible material is not needed to finish
this appliance.
It is important that the finishing material is determined before
the appliance is secured to the floor. Depending on the fin-
ishing material and installation method, the appliance may
need to be positioned further in or out of the wall.
There are three ways finishing material can be applied:.
1. Behind the mounting frame
. Flush with the mounting frame
. Proud of the mounting frame
1. Behind the Mounting Frame
The mounting frame is designed to have a 1/ inch (1mm)
overlap on the sides and the top of the framing opening.

Positioning the nailing flanges:
• Slide the nailing flanges all the way to the front and this
will set the appliance for 1/ inch (1mm) sheet rock.
• If tile, marble or other flat surface finish material is desi-
ered and you want the mounting frame to cover the cut
edge, set the nailing flanges at a dimension of the sheet
rock thickness plus the finishing material thickness.
Figure 28.2.
Example: Sheetrock = 1/2 inch (13mm)
Finish Material = 3/8 inch (9.5mm)
Move flange: 7/8 inch (22mm)
