A factory installed junction box is located on the lower right
side of the fireplace. Wiring must be fed to the junction box and
attached to the receptacle that is provided. Leave approximately
6" of wire in the junction box for connection.
Attach black wire to one side of the receptacle and white wire to
opposite side of receptacle. The ground wire should be attached
to the green (ground) screw.
Install the receptacle into the junction box. Attach cover plate.

damaged or missing components.
2. Lower bottom louver and remove upper louver on fireplace.
3. Remove glass frame assembly from fireplace.
4. Remove rear logs from burner assembly.
5. Place brick panel (rear) against rear wall in fireplace.
Note: The top edge will have a half-moon cutout relief to match
up with the rear flue vent hole.
6. While holding the front finished edge of a side brick panel
(left & right), place brick panel (sides) against side walls in
fireplace. NOTE: The side brick panels should be installed
with full brick pattern at the bottom. Move side panels
rearward until the back edge meets the rear brick panel. Slide
side brick panels down so they rest on firebox bottom, and
brick joints match up with the back brick panel.
7. Align grout lines on top brick panel with the grout lines on the
side brick panels. Place the top brick panel into brick panel
holder. With needle-nose pliers, carefully bend hold-down tabs
on brick panel holder over the edges of the top brick panel.
The hold-down tabs will securely hold the top brick panel in
place.

required to separate blower and valve circuits.
2. Power for switched and live sides of Duplex Receptacle must
come from the same power source. (One circuit breaker on
main panel must switch all power off.)
3. From the wall box to the fireplace a 3-wire conductor with
ground is recommended, however (2) two-wire conductors
with grounds may be used in place of a 3-wire conductor with
a ground if the black wires from the thermostat and blower
switch are identified.
4. Two wall switches, or a wall switch and thermostat may be
used to activate the two receptacle plugs independently.
