This list of specific instructions will help you make
certain that every installation operation is done
correctly. Complete the installation steps in the
sequence shown.
LOCAL BUILDING CODES SHOULD BE CONSULTED
IN ALL CASES AS TO THE PARTICULAR REQUIRE-
MENTS CONCERNING THE INSTALLATION OF FAC-
TORY BUILT VENT FREE FIREPLACES.
Select the location for the fireplace by taking into con-
sideration the factors previously outlined in the Planning
Ahead section of this manual.
Step 1: Framing the Firebox
The entire fireplace can be elevated above the floor to
achieve a raised hearth effect. This can be done by
adding a small platform to achieve the desired height.
STOP! INSTALL CANOPY AT THIS TIME BY LOOS-
ENING THE SCREWS LOCATED AT THE TOP
FRONT OF THE FIREPLACE. NEXT, SLIDE THE
SLOTTED FLANGE OF THE CANOPY UNDER THE
LOOSENED SCREWS, THEN RETIGHTEN THE
SCREWS TO SECURE THE CANOPY.
(Fig. 5a)
Step 2: Install the Firebox
Install the firebox into the framed opening by setting
it directly in front of the opening and sliding it into the
proper position.
Step 3: Level the Firebox
Check the level of the firebox on the top edge of the
fireplace face. Shim if necessary.
Step 4: Secure the Firebox
Secure the fireplace to the framing. The nailing flanges
on the firebox will make securing the firebox to the
frame quick and easy. Use appropriate size nails or
screws to secure the firebox.
Step 5: Removing the Front Screen Panel
To remove the screen panel, first open the control
panel door. Using a 1/4” nut driver, remove the two
screws that secure the screen panel to the front of the
fireplace, (Refer to Figure 7 for the location). Carefully
pull the bottom of the screen panel out toward you, then
pull the panel down until the two pins at the top of the
screen panel clears the holes in the top of the fireplace.
Reverse the above operation to reinstall the screen
panel.
WARNING: The front screen on the fixed screen
models must be installed before the fireplace is
put into operation.
