Framing the Firebox.
The fireplace can be located along a wall,
raised or 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 and Table 2.
Refer to Figure 1 and Table 3 for the placement
of the gas and electrical inlets. When the basic
framing is done and the unit is installed the
three (3) top pieces of the framing should be
installed Figure 13.

RAMING
:
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 framing boards may touch the top, side and back standoffs, but
no insulation or other material
can be placed between the frame and the standoffs.
