Location
For the purposes of this installation
manual the term “outdoor” means
installed outside of the insulated building
envelope within a weatherproof enclosure
having a minimum required overhang.
The outdoor space may be attached
or free standing to the main/primary
structure and may or may not include
walls.
Note:
The fi replace will not perform
as an exterior wall. If installed against
an exterior wall we recommend the
appliance enclosure or chase be
constructed completely outside of the
insultated building envelope and weather
membrane.
The fi replace must be permanently
situated and connected to a fi xed piping
system, it is not portable.
Weather Protection/Moisture
Resistance
This outdoor fi replace will tolerate
moderate amounts of water on an
occasional basis but is not waterproof.
The fi replace must be enclosed in a
weatherproof enclosure clad in typical
weatherproof material such as siding/
stucco/stone/tile, etc. and have a
weatherproof structure to shed water
that extends horizontally beyond the front
and side perimeter of the fi replace (see
diagram).
Water running down vertical surfaces
should be directed away from the
fi replace using fl ashings. Measures must
be taken to ensure any accumulated
water drains away from the fi replace and
structure. When the fi replace is installed
on surfaces where water may collect or
cause damage a suitable drainage pan
should be placed under the unit and the
water drained away.
