INSTALLATION (continued)

Vent Runs

In planning the installation for the fireplace, it is necessary to install 

certain components before the appliance is completely positioned 

and installed. These include the direct vent system, gas piping for 

the appliance and the electrical wiring. 

The appliance can be mounted on any of the following surfaces:

1.  A flat, hard surface

2.  A raised wooden platform

3.  Four corner supports (Example: Four concrete masonry blocks.) 

These supports must be positioned adequate is made with 

bottom standoffs). See local codes.

Note For Horizontal Vent Runs:

The included wall thimble spacer 

(Figure 25)

 and wall thimble 

(see parts list page 45) should be used for horizontal vent instal-

lations through combustible wall. The wall thimble spacer should 

be sandwiched between the wall and the inside half of the wall 

thimble refer. 

See Figure 26.

 The spacer flanges are to point 

towards the wall.
