Install Side Nailing Strips, Top Facing

is slipped into position. See page 16 for
assembly details.
1) Determine the total thickness of facing ma-
terial (e.g. drywall plus ceramic tiles) to
allow the finished surface to be flush with
the front of the unit. Total facing thickness
can vary from 1/2" (13mm) to 1-1/4" (32mm)
thick.
FRAMING AND
FINISHING
2) Frame in the enclosure for the unit with
framing material. The framed opening is
36-1/4" high x 36-1/4" wide x 12-3/4" deep
(921mm high x 921mm wide x 324mm deep).
3) For exterior walls, insulate the enclosure to
the same degree as the rest of the house,
apply vapour barrier and drywall, as per
local installation codes. (Do not insulate
the fireplace itself.)
4) The top of the unit must not be closer than
32" (813mm) to the ceiling.

Note: 40-1/2" (1029mm) is the minimum
height for both flex termination or
Simpson Dura-Vent venting.
Note: Header must be installed vertically. If
Header is installed horizontally, it must be
steel.
NOTE: See next page for important
Barcelona and Palace Series framing
note.
Note: The unit does not have to be com-
pletely enclosed in a chase. The
clearance on top of the unit is 0" to
the standoffs so combustible
building materials can be laid di-
rectly on top of the standoffs. You
must maintain 1-1/2" (38mm) clear-
ance from the vent to combustible
materials for flex (1-1/4" for Simp-
son Dura-Vent).
5) Use steel studs for framing where the
1-1/2" (38mm) clearance from the vent to
combustible material cannot be maintained,
e.g. front top header.
