SELECTING LOCATION
To determine the safest and most efficient
location for your fireplace, consider the fol
-
lowing guidelines:
1. The location must allow for proper clear-
ances (see Figure 1, page 6).
• Flush installation is recommended
where living space is limited.
• Projected installation may be ideal for a
new addition to an existing finished wall.
• Corner installation makes use of a space
that may not normally be used and pro-
vides a wider and more efficient range
for radiant heat transfer.
2. Consider a location where the fireplace
would not be affected by drafts, air con-
ditioning ducts, windows or doors.
3. A location that avoids the cutting of joists
or roof rafters makes ventilation installa-
tion easier.
In selecting a location, the following precau-
tions must be observed:
• Do not connect this appliance to a chim
-
ney system used for solid fuel burning
fireplace.
• Due to high temperatures, do not locate
this appliance in high traffic areas or near
