B. Securing and Leveling the Appliance
WARNING! Risk of Fire!
Prevent contact with:
• Sagging or loose insulation
• Insulation backing or plastic
• Framing and other combustible materials
Block openings into the chase to prevent entry of blown-
in insulation. Make sure insulation and other materials
are secured.
DO NOT
notch the framing around the appliance
standoffs.
Failure to maintain air space clearance could cause
overheating and fire.
The diagram shows how to properly square and position,
and secure the appliance. See Figures 6.11 and 6.12.
Nailing tabs are provided to secure the appliance to the
framing members.
• Bend out nailing tabs on each side.
• Place the appliance into position.
• Keep nailing tabs flush with the framing.
• Level the appliance from side to side and front to back.
• Shim the appliance as necessary. It is acceptable to use
wood shims underneath the appliance.
• Secure the appliance to the framing by using nails or
screws through the nailing tabs.
• Optional: Secure the appliance to the floor by inserting
two screws through the pilot holes at the bottom of the
appliance.
C. Non-Combustible Material Installation
The factory-installed non-combustible board spans the
distance from the top of the fireplace to the center of the
