Installing the Firebox
This list of specific instructions will help you
make certain that every installation operation is done
correctly. Complete the installation steps in the
sequence shown.
LOCAL BUILDING CODES SHOULD BE
CONSULTED IN ALL CASES AS TO THE
PARTICULAR REQUIREMENTS CONCERNING THE
INSTALLATION OF FACTORY BUILT FIREPLACES.
Select the location for the fireplace by taking into
consideration the factors previously outlined in the
Locating the Fireplace section of this manual.
Step 1: Framing the Firebox
The width of the framed openings must be 37" for
32" models, 41" for 36" models or 47" for 42"
models. (Fig. 2, page 6)
The entire fireplace can be elevated above the
floor to achieve a raised hearth effect. This can be
done by adding a small platform to achieve the
desired height.
Step 2: Install the Firebox
Install the firebox into the framed opening by
setting it directly in front of the opening and
sliding it into the proper position.
Step 3: Level the Firebox
Check the level of the firebox on the top edge of
the fireplace face. Shim if necessary.
Installation must conform with local
codes, or in the absence of local codes,
with the National Fuel Gas Code,
ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54.
