5.0 framing
• In order to avoid the possibility of exposed insulation or vapour barrier coming in contact with the appliance
body, it is recommended that the walls of the appliance enclosure be “finished” (i.e.: drywall/sheetrock), as
you would finish any other visible wall of a home. This will ensure that clearance to combustibles is maintained
within the cavity.
• Do not build shelves or cupboards into the area above the appliance.
• Objects placed in front of the appliance must be kept a minimum of 48” (121.9cm) away from the front face of
the appliance.
!
WARNING
Use metal studs wherever non-combustible facing is required.
