Attention:
Cold climate installation recommendation: When
installing this fireplace against a non-insulated exterior wall, it
is recommended that the outer walls be insulated to conform to
applicable insulation codes.
Vent Runs
In planning the installation for the fireplace, it is necessary to
install certain components before the fireplace is completely
positioned and installed. These include the direct vent system,
gas piping and electrical wiring.
The fireplace can be mounted on any of the following surfaces:
1. A flat, hard combustible or non-combustible surface.
2. A raised wooden platform.

shows both finishing options.
•
Use Non-Combustible materials where indicated for the
fireplace installation. Non-combustible materials do not
ignite or burn as a result of using the fireplace. These
include metal, brick, ceramic, concrete, slate, glass and
plaster. Adhesives must be rated for high temperatures. Any
mechanical fasteners used to install material must also be
non-combustible, including wall anchors and tile spacers.
Materials that pass the ASTM E 136 test (Standard Test
Method for Behavior of Materials in a Vertical Tube Furnace
at 750C) are considered non-combustible.
