glass).
Please note: Final installation of the logset/ember and (optional) combustion chamber panels should only be
done after the unit has been completely positioned and framed. It is further recommended that the vent system,
gas line connection, and ideally any electrical servicing requirements be similarly completed before proceeding
with the final placement of the ember medium. Hearth and mantel configurations are also best completed
beforehand. This will prevent accidental jarring and displacement of the ember medium and allow for visual
assessment of the completed package as the consumer will receive it. Trim and louvre kits should be installed
last.
