With the accessory box removed and set
aside, undo the lag bolts that fasten the unit
to the pallet. Take care not to mar or chip
the enameled legs. Have someone help lift
the stove off the pallet and set it into place.
The decorative ceramic logs supplied with
the Tucson are contained within the firebox.
Always use great care when handling the
decorative ceramic fire logs, as they are
fragile and subject to damage and breakage
if handled roughly. Open the firebox door
using a 1/8” Allen wrench screwdriver and
inspect the logs for damage. If a broken log
is encountered, contact your dealer for a
replacement. Otherwise, set the logs aside
until called for during the installation.

ROTECTION
The Tucson can be placed directly on a non-
combustible surface or wood floor. For
placement of the Tucson on carpeting, vinyl
tile or other combustible materials, the
appliance must be installed on a metal or
wood panel extending the full width and
depth of the appliance. Installations must
meet all local codes.

LEARANCE TO
C
OMBUSTIBLES
Due to high surface temperatures, the unit
should be located out of traffic areas and
away from furniture and draperies. Clothing
and other flammable material should not be
placed on or near the heater. When
positioning the unit always maintain
adequate clearances around air openings into
the combustion chamber and allow for
adequate ventilation. Minimum clearances
to combustibles must be maintained as
shown in the illustrations on page 12.
Note:
The rear clearance to combustibles
will be determined by either the unit’s or the
vent pipe’s minimum clearance, depending
on whether the installation calls for vertical
rise within the room or a rear exit, through-
the-wall vent pipe.
Be sure to consider the need for access to
the gas control valve access door on the
front of the unit as well as full access for
periodic cleaning and servicing. Also
consider the location of the Optional Blower
Fan.
•
Caution:
These clearances represent
minimum distances in all cases, which,
through testing in an independent
laboratory to ANSI and CSA
standards, will prevent fire or
spontaneous combustion. We do not
control the combustible materials
exposed to heat by this product;
therefore, an assessment must be
made by the installer to prevent
consequential damage of walls and
flooring.
