Unlike many traditional, single sided Heatilator fi replaces,
the RAVE3012I is recessed into surrounding framing. The
left and right nailing tabs were designed to ensure the
fi replace is recessed to the correct location within the framing
materials. Refer to Section 13 for detailed instructions on
fi nishing.
It is important to follow the framing and fi nishing instruc-
tions step by step to ensure proper placement of fi replace
in the surrounding framing/fi nishing materials.
