INSTALLATION
Your New Buck Ventless Firebox Enclosure may be installed in Residential or *After-Market
Manufactured Mobile Homes. This appliance may be installed in an *After Market Manufactured
Mobile Home,
where not prohibited by state or local codes.
* (After Market: Completion of sale, not for the purpose of resale from the manufacturer).
NOTE:
See page 13, for “Producing Adequate Ventilation”.
CHOOSING THE LOCATION FOR YOUR FIREBOX
Figure 1 shows some of the many ways your firebox may be installed. Consider the traffic pattern in
your room and the location of doors and windows. Moving air from ceiling fans, open doors, and hot
air grills may cause the flames to impinge the logs resulting in sooting. If a disturbance is found that
affects the flames, it must be eliminated by turning off the ceiling fan, closing the door, or closing the
hot air register. A corner location may be best where space is limited.
Your Ventless Firebox Enclosure weighs no more than some of your fine furniture. If the firebox is
located near a load bearing wall, additional supports to the foundation will not be necessary.
HEAVY FACINGS, SUCH AS BRICK, STONE, ETC., MAY REQUIRE ADDITIONAL
FOUNDATION SUPPORT.
NOTE: WHEN THE FIREBOX IS INSTALLED DIRECTLY ON CARPETING, TILE OR
OTHER COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS, OTHER THAN WOOD FLOORING, THE
FIREBOX SHALL BE INSTALLED ON A METAL OR WOOD PANEL EXTENDING THE
FULL WIDTH AND DEPTH OF THE ENCLOSURE.
GAS LINE
The gas supply line and electrical supply must be
installed before framing in the fireplace by a licensed
installer. This appliance when installed, be electrically
grounded in accordance with local codes or, in the
absence of local codes, with the
National Electrical
Code, ANSI \ NFPA 70.
DRAFTS
Do not locate the fireplace in high traffic areas or areas
exposed to high drafts and winds. Locate the fireplace
away from furniture and draperies.
