Installing The Fireplace Shell
The fireplace may be installed in any location that is free of air
conditioning ducts, electrical wiring and plumbing. Safety, as well as
efficiency of operation, must be considered when selecting the fireplace
location. Try to select a location that does not interfere with room traffic,
has adequate ventilation, and offers an accessible pathway for B-Vent &
Combustion Air Kit installation.
The fireplace dimensions are shown below:

Framing
For protection against freezing temperatures, it is recommended that
outer walls of the chase be insulated with a vapour barrier. This will
reduce the possibility of a cold-air convection current on the fireplace.
