ASSEMBLY & INSTALLATION INSTALLATION INSTALLATION INSTALLATION
Before you begin the fireplace mounting process there are several important installation requirements
that must be met. Careful planning will make the installation easier to accomplish and will reduce the
chances of encountering problems during installation.
1.
The fireplace is designed to be wall-mounted using four lag bolts to secure the fireplace
mounting plate to the wall structure. The mounts are located 16” on center and 24” on center to
correspond with standard building construction. If your home has non-standard construction or
the location you have chosen for the fireplace does not have wall studs that correspond to
location of the fireplace mounts, modifications to the wall structure will be needed. It is critical
that the four lag bolts that are provided for mounting the fireplace are firmly imbedded into the
wall structure at all four locations.
2.
All required minimum clearances to adjacent combustible materials (including side walls, ceiling
and floor) must be achieved with the location you have chosen. See the clearance information on
page 8. The listed clearances are measured from the outermost front edges of the fireplace
surround and not from the fireplace body or mounting plate. Again, plan the installation in
advance to avoid problems.
3.
The gas supply line must be located within a specific area behind the fireplace. Use the provided
wall template as a guide when locating the gas supply line pass-through.
Once you are certain that the location you have chosen meets all the necessary mounting and safety
requirements, you can begin the installation.
1.
Tape or pin the installation template to
the wall in the position where the fireplace
is to be mounted. Note: It is important
that the fire-place is mounted in a level
position. Use a spirit level placed on the
cross-hairs in the upper mounting holes
on the template and adjust the template
position until the mounting holes are
level. Refer to the adjacent illustration.
2.
Next, carefully transfer the location of the
two upper and two lower mounting holes
that you will use for your installation. Use
a sharp nail, awl or pin to pierce the
template on the mounting hole cross-
hairs to insure an accurate transfer to your
wall.
3.
Finally, transfer the location of the gas supply line.
4.
Remove the template and circle the transferred locations with a pencil or marker.
