FRAMING CONSTRUCTION AND INSTALLATION
CHOOSING 80ZC CABINET INSTALLATION LOCATION
Except as noted, the 80ZC can be installed almost anywhere you desire. There are, however, a few clearance
and framing restrictions that must be followed. (See Page 18 Figure 17), (Page 19 Figure 18) and (Page 20
Figure 19) to make sure that these clearance restrictions are met. It is much wiser to place your Model
80ZC correctly at the start.
You must ensure that the floor is of adequate strength to accept the load of this unit. If inadequate, the floor
will require additional support, such as bracing. NOTE: A wooden base constructed of plywood or 2" x 4"
boards is required in order to get proper clearance above the extended hearth (millboard, rock stone, etc.).
Good planning is essential for a satisfactory installation, therefore, at this point you should have decided
where the 80ZC is to be located and the route the chimney will follow to the roof-straight up or chase. If
you cannot decide the best route, contact your Dealer for assistance with the planning.
Above (Figure 5) are framing location examples with depth dimensions for some typical configurations.
These are finished measurements so install accordingly.
