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.
3. IMPORTANT:
Exterior wall/Alcove enclosure:
When installing into an
exterior cavity or alcove enclosure (ceiling, back and sides), regardless of
where appliance is placed within the home, requires the use of either drywall
or other means such as plywood, wood studs, etc. to prevent heat from
escaping anywhere above/through the enclosure other than the required
grill/ventilation openings.
Internal chase:
When installing as an internal chase framing installation,
regardless of where appliance is placed within the home, requires the use of
either drywall or other means such as plywood, on the rear wall of the chase
to eliminate heat escaping into the rear wall cavity. If the chase is extended
to the ceiling ,the ceiling will also need to be finished in a manner to prevent
heat escaping into floor joist/attic space.
One of the following methods must be used to prevent the heat from escap
-
ing:
a. If choosing drywall, ensure that the drywall is butt up tight with no gaps.
b. Plywood, wood studs, etc. installed tightly with no gaps.
As this appliance has been designed with all hot air escaping through the
chase enclosure ventilation / grill openings 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 overheat. It is vital that all the hot air
from within the enclosure exits through the ventilation openings only.
Ensure that the ventilation openings are made as such to prevent debris,
objects from falling into the enclosure.
Warning: DO NOT cover or place objects in front of the ventilation opening
air outlet(s).
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

chart for details.
The base and side (with smaller glass) have no limit when it comes to how
far the combustible material may extend out from the appliance. Ensure
that no material encroaches anywhere in the area of the glass as these are
defined by the finishing lip above, below and to the sides of this appliance.

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
