Fireplace Placement Requirements
•
Fireplace must be installed on a level surface capable of supporting the fireplace and vent
•
Fireplace must be placed directly on wood or non-combustible surface (not on linoleum or carpet)
•
Due to the high temperature of the fireplace, it should be located out of traffic and away from
furniture and draperies.
Clearances
•
When installed, walls in front of the fireplace must be a minimum 4-1/2" to the side of the faceplate
(or 1" from the edge of the fireplace).
•
Fireplace must be placed so that no combustibles are within, or can swing within 36" of the front of
the fireplace (e.g. drapes, doors)
•
Fireplace must be placed so the vents below and above the glass do not become blocked
Minimum Framing Dimensions
•
The fireplace has 1/2" stand-offs on the back and sides of the fireplace and 6-1/4" stand-offs on the
top. They are designed to space the fireplace away from framing members or walls. These stand-
offs may contact the framing members or walls but no material may be placed between the stand-
offs.
