Plan for the installation of your appliance. This includes determining where the unit is to
be installed, the vent configuration to be used, framing and finishing details, and whether
any optional accessories (i.e. blower, wall switch, or remote control) are desired. Consult
your local building code agency to ensure compliance with local codes, including permits
and inspections.
The following factors should be taken into consideration:
•
Clearance to side-wall, ceiling, woodwork, and windows. Minimum clearances to com-
bustibles
must be maintained.
•
This fireplace may be installed along a wall, across a corner, or use an exterior chase.
Refer to
Figure 3
for suggested locations.
•
Location should be out of high traffic areas and away from furniture and draperies due
to heat from appliance.
•
Never obstruct the front opening of the fireplace.
•
Do
not
install in the vicinity where gasoline or other flammable liquids may be stored.
•
Vent pipe routing. Refer to the
Venting
