HEARTH EXTENSIONS
HEARTH
A hearth is not mandatory, but it is recom-
mended for aesthetic purposes. Hearth exten-
sion must not block the removable grille com-
ponent (
see
Figure 15
).
Figure 14
Secure the hearth extension to the floor to
prevent possible shifting.
Cold climate installation recommendation:
When installing this fireplace against a non-
insulated exterior wall or chase, it is manda-
tory that the outer walls be insulated to con-
form to applicable insulation codes.

CABINET INSTALLATIONS
Cabinets are available from your dealer which
allow for fast, convenient installation of your
fireplace against existing walls.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
A 15AMP, 120 Volt, 60Hz circuit, with a prop-
erly grounded outlet, is required. Preferably,
the fireplace will be on a dedicated circuit, as
other appliances on the same circuit may cause
the circuit breaker to trip, or the fuse to blow,
when the heater is in operation.
The unit comes standard with a 5 ft. (1524mm)
long three wire cord, exiting the left side of the
fireplace. Plan the installation to avoid the use
of an extension cord. If an extension cord
must be used, it must be a minimum 16AWG,
three wire with grounding type plug, and con-
nector and rated not less than 2025 Watts.
A new electrical outlet can be installed inside the
frame construction, if permitted by local codes.
The EV-220 kit is available from your dealer that
will allow this appliance to be connected to a
220V 15 Amp supply.
The kit contains a power cord connector and
heater element for a standard 220V single phase
connection.
Refer to the electrical diagram on page 11.
FINAL FINISHING
FINISH TO YOUR TASTE
There are a wide variety of “finished looks” for
these fireplaces, from formal wall decor with
elaborate mantels to rustic wood paneling or
warm brick facings.
Materials like stone, tile, brick, etc., may over-
lap the black front facing. Do not extend these
materials beyond the black facing and into the
firebox area.
Do not cover outlet or face
opening
. Be sure not to interfere with the
installation and operation of glass doors or
block the lower grilles. Use caulking material
to seal the black metal facing to the surround
material on the finished wall.
Combustible materials may overlap the face of
the fireplace as long as they do not encroach
into the firebox opening (
see
Figure 14
).
Sidewall May
Be At Any
Distance From
The Face
Opening
Hearths And
Mantles May
