Recommended Installation Procedure
Important Notes Regarding Framing
We strongly suggest framing around the fireplace after it is in place.
Because this fireplace is
assembled on-site, you will need to make accommodations with the framing to allow for assembly. For
one-sided, see-through, bay, or side configurations,you may wish to leave one or both sides of the
framing open to allow for fireplace placement, assembly, and hookup. If framing the opening prior to
fireplace placement, you will also need to make the framing 6” (150mm) wider on each framed side (12” /
300mm wider for singled sided/see through configurations). This 6” gap allows for fireplace assembly
and will be covered with drywall (or other material) after the fireplace is assembled.
The header above the fireplace is best installed after the fireplace is in position, assembled, and the vent
attached. The fireplace must be lifted onto the alignment track, so additional space above the fireplace is
requried for lifting and placement.
1. Prepare the installation location. If placing the fireplace on a platform, build the platform, making sure
to accommodate the weight of the fireplace and venting. Verify the platform is level and plumb.
2. Install the alignment track (see page 17).
3. Prepare the modules for joining.
a) Install the tension rods in the fireplace (do not tighten at this time – see page 18).
b) Place modules on alignment track (leave gap between fireplaces – see page 18).
c) Remove shipping end caps from fireplace modules (see page 19).
d) Remove components to allow for fireplace joining (see page 20).
4. Join the fireplace modules.
a) Slide fireplace modules together (see page 23).
b) Install upper titan lock braces (do not tighten at this time - see page 24).
c) Install lower titan lock braces (do not tighten at this time - see page 24).
d) Place adjustable alignment tool in center of opening – adjust as necessary (see page 26).
e) Tighten the titan locks (see page 27).
f) Remove alignment tool – verify alignment (see page 27).
g) Attach tension rod – tighten as needed (see page 28).
h) Secure the fireplace to the alignment track (see page 29).
i) Attach the gas and electrical lines between the fireplace modules (see page 30).
5. Install the periphery components:
a) Install the power exhaust vent (and power exhaust blower assembly).
b) Install the air intake(s).
c) Install the gas line.
d) Install the electrical line, on/off switch, and LED controller.
6. Test operation of the fireplace before attaching facing or drywall (this can be done with no crushed
glass and the outer glass pane(s) removed). This allows the installer to verify all connections and
diagnose issues with the fireplace exterior accessible.
a) Adjust the air shutters (if needed)
b) Adjust the exhaust blower (if needed)
c) Shut the fireplace off. Install the outer the glass pane(s).
d) Re-start the fireplace and test glass pane temperature (allow fireplace to burn 2 hours)
7. Frame the area around the fireplace.
8. Install the drywall and/or facing.
8. Install the hearth (if applicable).
9. Install the mantel (if applicable).
10. Finalize the installation (see page 76).
