Locating The FP30 Fireplace
The best location to install your fi replace is determined by
considering the location of windows, doors, and the traffic fl ow
in the room where the FP30 Fireplace is located, allowing space
in front of the unit for the hearth extension and the mantel, and
taking into consideration the location of the chimney. Ideally, you
should choose a location where the chimney will pass through
the house without cutting fl oor or roof joists.

FIG. #6
Check the adequacy of the fl oor by fi rst estimating the weight
of the fi replace system. Next measure the area the fi replace
will occupy. Note the fl oor construction and consult your local
building code to determine if any additional support is needed. In
most cases, no additional fl oor support is needed for the FP30
fi replace.
The FP30 fi replace may be installed directly on the fl oor or on a
raised base. A minimum of 84" measured from the base of the
appliance to the ceiling is required.
The FP30 fi replace may not be installed in a factory built fi replace
unless tested with the fi replace.
Wind direction and magnitude can play a factor in the chimney
performance. Therefore the chimney outlet position is important
when locating the fi replace Fig.# 6.
The chimney should:
•
Penetrate the highest part of the roof.
•
Be installed as far as possible from roof offsets, trees or any
other obstructions that may cause wind turbulence or back
drafts in the chimney.
•
The least amount of offsets (elbows) possible.
