The

insert fireplaces must be installed in accordance with

Installations into a Factory Built Solid Fuel Burning Fireplace
This gas appliance has been tested and approved for installation into
any approved masonry or factory built solid fuel fireplace, in which
this gas insert will fit.
In the event that the vertical height of the factory built fireplace is less
than 20" you may remove some of the components such as the flue
baffle, flue damper or surround panels. These components can be
removed on the condition that:
1). The removal of such components in no way compromises the
structural integrity of the unit.
2). A label supplied with your insert is prominently affixed to the
existing fireplace. This label can be found included in the bag that
contains the back-up batteries for the insert.
The bottom of the existing fireplace may be removed as long as it
does not compromise the structural integrity of the existing firplace
and you maintain a mandatory minimum 3/4" clearance between the
bottom of the insert and the bottom shell of the existing fireplace.
This can be achieved by using strips of noncombustible material or
by using the leveling bots on the insert.
