Construct framing with 2x4 or larger lumber.
Note: Illustration provided for dimension information only.
Fireplace must be adequately framed and supported.
A = Required frame opening width. (
1/2 of A
= horizontal centerline
of
fireplace
and vent framing opening. See EXTERIOR WALL
OPENING FRAMING section.)
B = Required frame opening depth with 1/2" (13mm) thick wall finish
material. For other wall finish thicknesses, adjust frame opening
depth and nailing flanges accordingly (see UNIT NAILING FLANGES
section).
C = Min. frame opening height (from base of appliance to header).
d = Min. height from appliance base to vertical centerline of
horizontal termination vent pipe (with 6" straight vent section and
90° elbow off appliance vent collar). (Note: The vertical centerline
of the horizontal termination vent pipe is NOT the same as the
vertical centerline of the vent frame opening because of firestop/
spacer offset. See ExtErIor WALL oPENING FrAMING section.
E = Min. height from appliance base front to ceiling.
f = Mounting platform (Note: Mount appliance on a fully supported
platform extending full width and depth of unit.)

IMPORTANT!
Before installing fireplace,
nailing flanges MUST be
ad justed according to finish
(cleanface or surround) and
wall finish material thickness.
This is critical to ensure proper
fireplace location, especially
if installing optional Surround
and Bezel. See next page.
Assemble TOP SPACERS
before in stall ing fireplace
