installation
1. Frame in the enclosure for the unit with framing material.
Note:
When constructing the framed opening ensure there is access to install
the gas lines,electrical. Also the wiring harness must be wall mounted using the
receptacle provided with the appliance. The wiring harness will be located on
the right hand side of the appliance if facing the unit from the front. This must
be done prior to any finishing.
2. For exterior walls, insulate the enclosure to the same degree as the rest of
the house, apply vapour barrier and drywall, as per local installation codes.
(Do not insulate the fireplace itself).
WARNING:
Failure to insulate and add vapor barriers to the inside of the exterior
wall will result in operational and performance problems including, but not limited
to: excessive condensation on glass doors, poor flame package, carbon, blue
flames etc. These are not product related issues.
Note that in all applications while there is a zero clearance to combustibles to
the unit, all clearances to combustibles from the venting inside the chase still
applies. Please see venting clearances in the specific product manual.

IMPORTANT:
The interior chase enclosure (top, back and sides), regardless
of where appliance is placed within the home, requires the use of either drywall
or other means such as insulation, plywood, wood studs, etc. to prevent heat
from escaping anywhere above the enclosure. One of the following methods
must be used to prevent the heat from escaping into the cavity of the enclosure.
a. If choosing drywall, joints MUST be sealed using drywall tape and
mud.
b. Insulation, plywood, wood studs, etc. installed tightly with no gaps,
seams.
As this appliance has been designed with all hot air escaping through the
chase enclosure ventilation grills only, if hot air is trapped as a result of the hot
air escaping through joints, crevasses, open studs,or other openings within
the enclosure above, this will change the clearances within the enclosure
causing the enclosure to over heat. It is vital that all the hot air exits through
the ventilation openings only. If using the optional heat wave kit, this does
not reduce the size of the ventilation grill. The ventilation grill(s) must be a
minimum 120 square inches regardless.
4. Combustible material (drywall,wood,wood panels, etc.) may be brought up to
this appliance (top,bottom and sides)
5. Ensure that the material being used does not encroach anywhere in the area
of the glass. This would cause dangerous operating conditions.
6. This appliance comes with a 1/2" (13 mm) lip at top, sides and bottom to hide
the ends of the drywall. The 1/2" (13 mm) side and bottom, front and bottom
side lips supplied with the appliance can alternatively be removed and replaced
with J Style Trim or Metal Corner Bead purchased at your local hardware
store to cover cut/exposed edges of the combustible facing material or any
other finishing materials being used. Six (6) screws secure the bottom front
lip. Two (2) secure the bottom side lips and 2 secure each side if deciding to
remove these. These will be hidden so the outer panels (if installed) will need
to be removed to access the screws. See outer panel removal in this manual.
7. This appliance can also be recessed (using combustible materials) with a hearth
in front of the appliance. This can also extend to the top. See below for details.
