The location for the fireplace can be
along a wall, raised, at floor level, or
in a corner. There are specific framing
measurements for each situation.
The basic opening should have the
dimensions shown in Figure 12.
The fireplace must have a strong and
level surface to be placed on. The
surface should be made of wood or a
non-combustible material, not carpet.
The gas line,
3/8”
JIC fitting, should
be brought to the right side of the
fireplace. The location should be
chosen so the fireplace will be at least

be a minimum of
