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.
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.
Install Side Nailing Strips, Top Facing
Support, and Top Standoffs before unit
is slipped into position. See page 17 for
assembly details.
2) Frame in the enclosure for the unit with
framing material. The framed opening is
37-1/4" high x 36-1/4" wide x 17-3/8" deep
(946mm high x 921mm wide x 441mm deep).

Note: 40-1/2" (1029mm) is the minimum
height for both flex termination or
Simpson Dura-Vent venting.
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 clearance from the
vent to combustible materials for
flex, see Vent Clearances.
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.
NOTE: See next page for important
Barcelona and Palace Series framing
note.
