Table 3: G50 Minimum Framing
The location for the fireplace can be raised, at floor level, or installed in a corner. There are minimum
framing measurements for each situation. The basic rough opening should have the following dimensions
(see Figure 34). The fireplace must be placed on a strong and level surface.
The gas line must be run to the right side of the fireplace, there is a 3/8 NPTM fitting to connect the gas line
to. The electrical wiring must be brought to the left side. The location of the fireplace should be chosen so
there will be at least a 36 inches (914 mm) clearance from drapes, doors and other combustible materials.
