or stone, can be installed up to the outer edge of the sur-
round. Wall or floor finishing materials cannot overlap
the front face of the surround. See Figure 4.4 for mantel
clearances.

E. Installing Appliance
Once the leveling brackets and surround are securely
attached to the appliance, it can be fit into the existing
fireplace or constructed chase.
1.
Place a protective cover over the finished flooring in
front of the fireplace or wall opening.
2.
Locate the appliance in front of the fireplace or wall
opening.
3. Connect the power cord to the receptacle if the
electrical service is located inside the existing fireplace
or constructed chase. The cord will need to be loosely
coiled inside the cavity along the right side of the
appliance.
4. If necessary, adjust leveling brackets to achieve
desired height.
5. Slide the appliance into the opening until the surround
contacts the wall.
6. Note any gaps between the surround and the wall.
Check for level. If necessary, adjust leveling brackets.
7.
S
lide the appliance from the opening and make
adjustments to the leveling brackets.
8. Repeat steps 5-7 until the appliance and surround
are flush and level, and cord is securely routed and
terminated to the receptacle.
Note:
If the power supply is located outside the fireplace
or chase, the cord can be routed through the bottom cor-
ner of the surround to a nearby outlet.
