In planning the installation for the fireplace, it is necessary to
determine where the unit is to be installed and whether optional
accessories are desired. Gas supply piping should also be planned
at this time.
The fireplace can be mounted on any of these surfaces:
1. A flat hard non-combustible surface.
2. A raised platform of combustible or non-combustible material.
3. Four corners of the fireplace so contact is made on all four
perimeter edges on the bottom of the unit.
(Example: Four concrete masonry blocks.)
If the fireplace is installed directly on carpeting, tile or other
combustible material other than wood flooring, it should be installed
on a metal or wood panel extending the full width and depth of the
unit.
At this point, you should have decided what components to include
in your installation, and where the fireplace is to be located. If this
has not been done, stop and consult your dealer for assistance
with this planning.
This fireplace is intended for installation on an outdoor patio or
in your yard. This fireplace shall be used only outdoors in a well
ventilated space and shall NOT be used in a building, garage, or
other enclosed area.
It is recommended that this fireplace be installed in a “sheltered”
area. Direct wind will cause an erratic flame and possible pilot or
main burner outage. This erratic flame could also lead to excessive
black soot. These issues are nuisance issues rather than a safety
issues.
Typical installation may include covered patio, screened porch,
gazebo or an outside wall of a house.
