Marin™ See-Through B-Vent Gas Fireplaces
COLD CLIMATE INSULATION
For cold climate installations, seal all cracks
around your appliance with noncombustible
material and wherever cold air could enter
the room. It is especially important to insulate
outside chase cavity between studs and under
fl oor on which appliance rests, if fl oor is above
ground level. Gas line holes and other open-
ings should be caulked or stuffed with unfaced
fi berglass insulation.
If the fi replace is being installed on a cement
slab in cold climates, a sheet of plywood or
other raised platform can be placed underneath
to prevent cold transfer to the fi replace and into
the room. It also helps to sheetrock inside
surfaces and tape for maximum air tightness
and caulk fi restops.
MANUFACTURED HOUSING
B-Vent Fireplaces are not approved for use in
OEM or aftermarket manufactured housing built
to HUD standards.
LOCATION
In selecting the location, the aesthetic and
functional use of the appliance are primary
concerns. However, vent system routing to
the exterior and access to the fuel supply are
also important.
Due to high temperatures, the appliance
should be located out of traffi c and away from
furniture and draperies (Figure 2).
En raison des températures élevées,
l’appareil devrait être installé dans un endroit
où il y a peu de circulation et loin du mobilier
et des tentures (Figure 2).
The location should also be free of electrical,
plumbing or other heating/air conditioning
ducting.
Be aware that this is a heat producing ap-
pliance. Objects placed above the unit are
exposed to elevated temperatures.
Do not insulate the space between the appli-
ance and the area above it.
The appliance must be mounted on a fully sup-
ported base extending the full width and depth of
the unit. The appliance may be located on or near
conventional construction materials. However,
if installed on combustible materials, such as
carpeting, vinyl tile or other combustible material
other than wood fl ooring, the appliance shall be
installed on a metal or wood panel extending the
full width and depth of the appliance.

** When the see-through
fi replace is installed in the

either viewing side of the
fi replace.
* When the see-through
fi replace is installed with one
side fl ush with a wall, the op-
posite wall must not extend
beyond either viewing side of
the fi replace.
