5.2. Placement requirements for your ZC-fireplace
The ZC-fireplace must be installed on a flat, level and continuous surface, or raised up on a platform, to enhance its
visual impact, capable of supporting the ZC-fireplace and vent. Due to the high temperature of the ZC-fireplace, it
should be located out of traffic and away from furniture and draperies. The ZC-fireplace must be placed so no com-
bustibles are within, or can swing within 36” of the front of the ZC-fireplace (e.g. drapers, doors).
•
The ZC-fireplace must not be placed so the vent is below or above the door, along the side of the ZC-
fireplace, or along the back of the heater can be blocked.
•
This ZC-fireplace may be placed in a bedroom, but please be aware of the large amount of heat this ZC-
fireplace produces when determining a location.
•
Provide adequate clearances for servicing.
•
We recommend that you plan your installation on paper using exact measurements for clearances and floor
protection before actually installing the appliance, Have an authorized inspector, dealer, or installer review
your plans before installation
