Appliance Clearances - Lennox E36ODGNE Installation Instructions Manual

When Planning for the installation of the
fireplace, the framing height must be in-
creased from 46-1/2 inches to 47-1/4
inches, when installing the drain pan. An
additional space below the fireplace will
also be required to plumb a drain line.
Step 1. Seal all joints, gaps and corners around
the bottom of the drain pan before positioning
the fireplace on its location ( Figure 3 ).
Step 2. On the exposed drain hole, install a
PVC threaded coupling reducer, 3/4" x 1/2"
going from the top of the pan down through
the hole. Apply a silicone-based sealant around
the base and threads before installation.
Step 3. Holding the reducer coupling with a
wrench, thread a 3/4", 90 degree, PVC elbow to
the reducer until it is tight to the metal.
Step 4. Add additional piping to route the
drain to an appropriate location.
Note: To assure proper drainage, the fireplace
must be installed on a leveled surface.
CLEARANCES
Minimum clearance to combustibles for the
fireplace is as follows; sides and back – 1/2"
(13mm), combustible floor – 0" (0mm), adja-
cent wall 6" (152mm), ceiling – 50" (1270mm).
Refer to Figure 4 on this page and Figure 18
on page 13 for more detail .
Note: Clearance behind the nailing flange for
both fireplace models is 1/2" (13mm).
Note: Adjacent wall considerations are for an
adjacent wall to only a single side. Walls should
not be placed at the minimum distance on both
sides of the fireplace. Allow at least 4 feet on
one side of the fireplace.
