QUALIFIED
INSTALLER
Location
For the purposes of this installation
manual the term "outdoor" means installed
outside of the insulated building envelope.
The outdoor space may be attached or
free standing to the main/primary structure
and may or may not include walls.
Note: The fi replace will not perform as
an exterior wall. If installed against an
exterior wall we recommend the appliance
enclosure or chase be constructed
completely outside of the insultated
building envelope and weather membrane.
The fi replace must be permanently
situated and connected to a fi xed piping
system, it is not portable.
Weather Protection/Moisture
Resistance
This outdoor fi replace will tolerate
moderate amounts of water on an
occasional basis but is not waterproof.
The fi replace must be enclosed in a
weatherproof enclosure clad in typical
weatherproof material such as siding/
stucco/stone/tile, etc. and have a
weatherproof structure to shed water
that extends horizontally beyond the front
and side perimeter of the fi replace (see
diagram).
Water running down vertical surfaces
should be directed away from the fi replace
using fl ashings. Measures must be taken
to ensure any accumulated water drains
away from the fi replace and structure.
When the fi replace is installed on surfaces
where water may collect or cause damage
a suitable drainage pan should be placed
under the unit and the water drained away.
