PRECAUTIONS
Note: These fireplace systems are not difficult
to install. However, in the interest of safety, it
is recommended that the installer be a quali-
fied or certified “tradesman” familiar with com-
monly accepted fireplace installation and safety
techniques as well as prevailing local codes.
The most important areas of concern dealing
with the installation of factory-built fireplaces
are clearances to combustible materials, proper
assembly of component parts, height of the
chimney system, the proper use of accesso-
ries supplied by the manufacturer and the
techniques employed in using finishing mate-
rials applied to the wall surrounding the fire-
place, hearth extensions and wall shields. Each
of these topics will be covered in thorough
detail throughout this manual. Please give
each your special attention as you progress
with your installation.
INTRODUCTION

lations with nominal dimensions and are for
design and framing reference only. Actual instal-
lations may vary due to individual design prefer-
ences. However, always maintain minimum clear-
ances to combustible materials and do not vio-
late any specific installation requirements.
These fireplaces have been tested and listed by
Warnock Hersey (Report No. 629-915173) to
U.L. standard 127. These units are intended
for installation in residential homes and other
buildings of conventional construction includ-
ing commercial, not in mobile homes.

stallation in accordance with the National Fire
Protection Standard for chimneys, fireplaces
and solid fuel burning appliances; NFPA 211
and in accordance with codes such as the
BOCA Basic/National Codes, the Standard Me-
chanical Code and the Uniform Building Codes.

REQUIREMENTS
The fireplace may be placed on or near normal
construction materials*. The combustion air
kit, firestop spacer and roof flashing (not chase
flashings) may be placed directly on or against
normal construction materials.* The chimney
and fireplace outer wrapper require a mini-
mum 2" air space to combustibles. A combus-
tible mantle may be installed 12" above the
opening of the fireplace as per NFPA 211,

fireplace system is 15' 6". The maximum height
is 80' 0".
The fireplace and chimney system must be
enclosed when installed in or passing through
a living area where combustibles or people may
come in contact with it. This is important to
prevent possible personal injury or fire hazard.
