Horizontal Terminations; Vertical Terminations - kozy heat DASSEL DSL-36 Installation And Operation Manual

Determine the exact position of your fireplace, including hearth height, width, and depth, (if applicable). If possible, place
fireplace in such a manner that the vent termination will be placed between two studs, eliminating the need for additional
framing.
If masonry is to be used (optional), prepare the necessary foundation for the masonry load. When masonry construction is
being used, a lintel must be used over the top of the fireplace to support the added weight.
Build the hearth to the desired size and height. If a
hearth extension is desired, combustible material may
be used.
NOTE: Consider height of hearth
finish material (stone, brick, etc.) when
building fireplace platform. The
bottom of the fireplace must be level
with finished hearth to allow for lower
grill operation and proper fit of
optional decorative full door faces.
