1)  Frame in the enclosure for the unit with framing material. The framed 
opening for the assembled kit is 42-1/2" high x 40-1/2" wide x 20-1/16" 
deep (1080mm  H x 1029mm W x 508mm D), see Diagram 1. Also 
see Diagram 2 for corner installations.
Note:   When constructing the framed opening, please ensure there 
is access to install the gas lines when the unit is installed. 
See diagram 3 for details.
2)  For exterior walls, insulate the enclosure to the same degree as the 
rest of the house, apply vapour barrier and drywall, as per local instal-
lation codes. (Do not insulate the fi replace itself.)
3)  The unit does not have to be completely enclosed in a chase. A non-
combustible header must be used. You must maintain clearances 
from the vent to combustible materials: See "Clearances" section.  
Combustible materials can be laid against the side and back standoffs 
and the stove base.
