CHOOSING THE LOCATION FOR YOUR FIREPLACE
The figure below shows some of many ways your fireplace may be installed. Consider traffic pattern in your
room and location of doors and windows. Moving air from ceiling fans, open doors and hot air grills may
cause flames to soot. If a disturbance is found that affects flames, it must be eliminated by turning off ceiling
fan, closing door or closing or moving hot air register. A corner location may be best where space is limited.
Your fireplace weighs no more than some of your fine furniture. If fireplace is located near a load bearing
wall, additional supports to foundation will not be necessary. HEAVY FACINGS, SUCH AS BRICK, STONE, ETC.,
MAY REQUIRE ADDITIONAL FOUNDATION SUPPORT.
NOTE: If this appliance is installed directly on carpeting, tile or other combustible material, other than wood
flooring, appliance shall be installed on a metal or wood panel extending full width and depth of appliance.
The Manufacturers Trim Kit must be used for Zero Clearance Installation. For fireplace installation see”Insert
Fireplace Facade Installation” section of this manual.
GAS LINE
Gas supply line and electrical supply must be installed before framing in the fireplace by a licensed installer.
DRAFTS
Do not locate the fireplace in high traffic areas or areas exposed to high drafts and winds. Locate the
