BUILT-IN FIREBOX INSTALLATION
If placing custom mantel above built-in firebox, you must meet
the minimum allowable clearance between mantel shelf and top of
firebox opening shown in Figure 7. These are the minimum allow-
able mantel clearances for a safe installation. Use larger clearances
wherever possible to minimize the heating of objects and materials
placed on the mantel.
CAUTION: Do not allow the vent-free gas log heater
to touch or extend beyond the fireplace screen.
NOTICE: Surface temperatures of adjacent walls and
mantels become hot during operation. Walls and
Built-in installation of this firebox involves installing firebox into a
framed-in enclosure. This makes the front of firebox flush with wall. If
installing a mantel above the firebox, you must follow the clearances
shown in Figure 7. Follow these instructions to install the firebox in
this manner.
1. Frame in rough opening. The firebox framing should be constructed
of 2 x 4 lumber or heavier. Use dimensions and rough opening lay-
out in Figure 8. Adjust framing so that firebox flushes with finished
wall surface. If installing in a corner, use dimensions in Figure 9,
for rough opening.
2. Install gas piping to firebox location. See Gas Line Installation on
page 13 and Connecting to Gas Supply in log set owner
’s manual.
