Minimum Framing Dimensions
45-1/2"
We recommend installing the
shaded framing members
after installing the chimney.
Arrange the framing
members so there is not a
vertical member directly in
the center of the opening
where it would interfere with
pipe clearances.

Header
(install veritcally to
ensure proper pipe to
header clearance)
A firestop is required at the top of
the fireplace enclosure or ceiling
level (whichever is lower).
Min. 4-1/2"
NOTE: make sure the
enclosure is wide enough to
accommodate the blower
(see the section"Blower" for
details).
The fireplace enclosure must not be
less than 81" above the base of the
fireplace.
• If the fireplace is raised, the
enclosure height must be raised to
maintain the 81".
• Do not build into this area.
• Do not slope the walls inward.

Minimum Clearances
•
When installed, walls in front of the fireplace
must be a minimum 18" to the side of the
faceplate (or 15-1/2" from the side of the
fireplace) – see the illustration under
"Installation Overview".
•
Fireplace should be located such that no
doors, drapes, furniture or other
combustibles can be placed close or swing
closer than the minimum 36" clearance.
Due to the high heat output of this fireplace,
choose a location away from high traffic
areas.
•
Fireplace must be placed so the vents below
and above the glass do not become blocked
Raised Fireplaces
•
If the fireplace is raised more than 15” above the sub-floor, the fireplace enclosure will have to be raised
accordingly (see “Minimum Framing Dimensions”).
•
The platform must be designed to support the fireplace and vent (Approximately 600 Lbs.).
