Recommended Installation Procedure

1. Frame the opening for the fireplace. Make sure to allow for vent installation.
2. Tack a strip of the facing material (drywall, hardboard, dura-rock, etc.) on the frame on both sides of
the fireplace opening. NOTE: This strip will be removed after the fireplace is secured to the floor.
This facing thickness must represent the total thickness of the finished facing. FOR EXAMPLE: If
tile is to be used, include the thickness of the backboard, tile, and tile adhesive.
3. Insert the fireplace into the framing. Slide it back until the standoff flanges (the 1/4" flanges on the
stand-offs) contact the strip of facing material. Verify all clearances at this point.
4. Secure the fireplace to the floor by screwing or nailing through the nail-down plates (found on
both sides and back of the fireplace).
5. Complete the gas line installation.
6. Complete the electrical hook-up.
7. Complete the vent installation.
8. Install the hearth (if applicable).
9. Remove the strips of facing material. Install the facing.
10. Install the mantel (if applicable).
