The metal floor of the ZC solid fuel firebox can be removed to allow the installation of the insert. THE
CLEARANCE TO COMBUSTIBLE MATERIAL UNDER THE INSERT IS 4” (102 mm). YOU MUST USE THE
LEVELING LEGS TO RAISE THE INSERT A MINIMUM OF 4” (102 mm) IF THE UNIT IS TO BE INSTALLED
ON COMBUSTIBLE MATERIAL. IF THE ZERO CLEARANCE FIREPLACE IS INSTALLED DIRECTLY ONTO A
CONCRETE FLOOR THE MINIMUM CLEARANCE IS NOT APPLICABLE. The optional Base Shelf and Riser
are recommended to fill the space under the unit once raised. The sidewalls and top structure of the
solid fuel firebox cannot be altered with the exception of: removal of dampers, removal of smoke shelf or
baffle, removal of ember catches, removal of log grate, removal of viewing screen/curtain, and removal of
doors. THE ORIGINAL FIREPLACE MAY NEVER BE RETURNED TO SOLID FUEL USE IN THIS CONDITION.
IMPORTANT: If the factory-built fireplace has no gas access hole(s) provided, an access hole of 1.5 inch
(37.5 mm) or less may be drilled through the lower sides or bottom of the firebox in a proper workmanship
like manner. This access hole must be plugged with non-combustible insulation after the gas supply line
has been installed. Cutting any sheet-metal parts of the fireplace, in which the gas fireplace insert is to
be installed, except as tested for the floor is prohibited.
The included label plate shown below must be permanently attached inside the cavity of the fireplace
in a visible location.
WARNING: This fireplace has been converted
for the use with a gas fireplace insert only and
cannot be used for burning wood or solid
fuels unless all original parts have been
replaced, and the fireplace re-approved by the
authority having jurisdiction.
