Plan for the installation of your appliance. This includes determining where the unit is to be 
installed, the vent configuration to be used, framing and finishing details, and whether any optional 
accessories (i.e. blower, wall switch, or remote control) are desired. Consult your local building 
code agency to ensure compliance with local codes, including permits and inspections.
The following factors should be taken into consideration:
  Clearance to side-wall, ceiling, woodwork, and windows. Minimum clearances to combustibles 
must be maintained.
  This fireplace may be installed along a wall, across a corner, or use an exterior chase. See 
Figure 3 for suggested locations.
  Location should be out of high traffic areas and away from furniture and draperies due to 
heat from appliance.
  Never obstruct the front opening of the fireplace.
  Do not install in the vicinity where gasoline or other flammable liquids may be stored.
  Vent pipe routing. See Venting section found in this manual for allowable venting configura-
tions.
  These units can be installed in a bedroom. Refer to the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z233.1/
NFPA 54 — (current edition), the Uniform Mechanical Code — (current edition), and Local 
Building Codes for specific installation requirements.
  These units can be installed in a bathroom.

If you live in a cold climate, seal all cracks around your appliance, and 
wherever cold air could enter the room, with noncombustible material. 
It is especially important to insulate the outside chase cavity between 
the studs and under the floor on which the appliance rests, if the floor 
is above ground level.
