8.2 Carrying Handles
To facilitate the transport of the fireplace, handles sold as an option
may be used. They are installed on each side of the fireplace. Wearing
gloves is strongly recommended when moving the fireplace.
8.3 Location
The best location for the fireplace should consider the location of windows, doors, and circulation
in the room. There must be enough space in front of the fireplace for the hearth extension and
mantel and on the sides or back for the different heat distribution system, for the fresh air intake
and for the chimney. Ideally, the chimney must be able to pass through the house without the
need to cut floor joists or roof trusses.
