3.
Adjust the position of the side panels so they are: 1) flush with the bottom of the insert; 2) both the
same distance back from the front of the insert; 3) perpendicular to the floor. Tighten the screws and
nuts that hold the panels in place to complete the surround panel installation.
NOTE: If using a positive or direct connection, the top panel should be installed after the
flue is connected to the appliance.

INSULATION INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
The installation of the insulation is required only for face seal connections. Direct and positive
connections do not require the insulation to be installed. Refer to the installation instructions for more
details on the type of installations available and the items that are required for each type of installation.
1.
With the insert drawn at least 6" away from the fireplace, glue the insulation strip included with the
surround panel kit to the back of the panels using RTV silicon or stove gasket cement. The insulation
should be installed so it overlaps the fireplace opening to form a seal between the panels and the
fireplace face.
2.
Push the insert into the fireplace, insuring a seal is made with the insulation between the panels and
the fireplace face. Use a screwdriver to tuck any exposed insulation behind the panels.
