INSTALLATION
1) Frame in the enclosure for the unit with framing material.
IMPORTANT: The framed opening must be of non-combustible
material.
Note: When constructing the framed opening, please ensure there
is access to install the gas lines when the unit is installed.
2) For exterior walls, insulate the enclosure to the same degree as the
rest of the house, apply vapour barrier and drywall, as per local instal-
lation codes. (Do not insulate the fi replace itself.)
WARNING: Failure to insulate and add vapor barriers to the inside
of the exterior wall will result in operational and performance
problems including, but not limited to: excessive condensation
on glass doors, poor fl ame package, carbon, blue fl ames etc.
These are not product related issues.
3) The unit does not have to be completely enclosed in a chase. You
must maintain clearances from the vent to combustible materials: See
"Clearances" section. Combustible materials can be laid against the
side and back standoffs and the stove base.
4) Non-combustible material (ie. tile, slate, etc) may be brought up to and
overlap the unit (top and bottom) ensuring that the maximum thickness
does not go beyond the 1-1/2" as shown in the diagram below. The
faceplate will not be able to be mounted if fi nished material is beyond
1-1/2".
