Raised Fireplaces


The fireplace (and hearth, if desired) may be placed on a platform designed to support the fireplace
and vent.
HINT: We typically have displayed this fireplace on a 24" to 36" raised platform. Keep in mind that the
firebox opening (base of the flames) is 12" above the base. Desired position may vary depending
upon room size, typical viewing angle, and aesthetic intent.
