INSTALLATION
Note: 40-1/2" (1029mm) is the minimum
height for both fl ex termination or
Simpson Dura-Vent fl ueing.
Note: The unit does not have to be
completely enclosed in a chase. The
clearance on top of the unit is 0" to
the standoffs so combustible building
materials can be laid directly on top
of the standoffs. You must maintain
1-1/2" (38mm) clearance from the
fl ue to combustible materials for fl ex
(1-1/4" for Simpson Dura-Vent ).
5)
Use steel studs for framing where the
1-1/2" (38mm) clearance from the fl ue to
combustible material cannot be maintained,
e.g. front top header.
MANTEL LEG
CLEARANCES
Combustible mantel leg clearances as per
diagram below:
FRAMING AND
FINISHING
1)
Determine the total thickness of facing
material (e.g. drywall plus ceramic tiles) to
allow the fi nished surface to be fl ush with
the front of the unit. Total facing thickness
can vary from 1/2" (13mm) to 1-1/4" (32mm)
thick.
Maximum 38mm
projection at 51mm
minimum clearance.
3)
For exterior walls, insulate the enclosure to
the same degree as the rest of the house,
apply vapour barrier and drywall, as per
local installation codes.
(Do not insulate
the fi replace itself.)
4)
The top of the unit must not be closer than
32" (813mm) to the ceiling.
Install Side Nailing Strips, Top Facing
Support, and Top Standoffs before
unit is slipped into position. See "Unit
Assembly Prior to Installation" section
for assembly details.
2)
Frame in the enclosure for the unit with
framing material.

Premium Flush Front Framing
Do not use combustible material as lining (eg.
timber) around the fi replace as shown in the
shaded area in the diagram below.
NOTE:
When using the Premium Flush Front
option, a fi nishing trim (962mm cover)
needs to be installed to cover the
spacers.
Maintain a physical gap between lining
and spacers 2-5mm. (5mm clearance to
framing each side).
