The appliance must be installed on a floor, which is
sufficiently flat and level to ensure stability. Some
fireplace constructions have a well in the floor at the
back that may need to be filled in.
Though not mandatory, we recommend that carpet,
soft vinyl or other combustible floor coverings are kept
at least 16" from the front of the appliance since these
types of materials may be affected by the radiant heat
output from this appliance.
The minimum clearances from any combustible
constructions at the front of the appliance are shown
below.
The appliance must be connected to a vent that is a
minimum of 9'-0" in height and must not have any
90 degrees elbows within 9'-0" of the flue outlet of
the unit (see fig. below). Radiused offsets in the
