Attention: If a base is not used and the appliance is installed directly

on tile or other combustible material other than wood flooring, it

shall be installed on a metal or wood panel extending the full width

and depth of the appliance. The vertical dimension in Figure 11

must be adjusted when a metal or wood panel is placed beneath

the appliance.
Finishing (Figures 12 and 13)

Finish the walls with the material of your choice. Figure 3 on

page 8 shows the minimum vertical and corresponding maximum

horizontal dimensions of mantels or other combustible projections

above the top front edge of the fireplace.

The black fireplace front must not be covered. It must be flush

to the finished wall.

Warning: When finishing the fireplace never obstruct or

modify the air inlet/outlet louvers in any manner. Provide

adequate clearances around air openings into the combustion

chamber.

Caution: If the joints between the finished wall and the fireplace

surround (top and sides) are sealed, a 300°F minimum sealant

material must be used. These joints are not required to be sealed.

Only non-combustible material (using 300°F minimum adhesive

if needed), can be applied as facing to the fireplace.

Framing (Figure 11)

Fireplace framing can be built before or after the fireplace is set in

place. Framing should be positioned to accommodate wall covering

and fireplace facing material. The fireplace framing should be

constructed of 2 x 4 lumber or heavier. The framing headers may

rest on the fireplace standoffs. Refer to Figure 11 for minimum

framing dimensions.
CAUTION: MEASURE FIREPLACE DIMENSIONS AND

VERIFY FRAMING METHODS, AND WALL COVERING

DETAILS BEFORE FRAMING CONSTRUCTION

BEGINS.

Framing dimension "A" includes a six inch clearance

for standoffs on fireplace. After installing fireplace into

framing, the finished non-combustible wall surface must

cover the six inch opening above the fireplace.

Attention: Appliance must not be recessed below any flooring,

including carpeting, for proper front mounting. A metal or wood

panel extending the full width and depth of the appliance may

be required to raise the unit to the same level, or above existing

flooring. The vertical dimension in Figure 11 must be adjusted

when a panel is placed beneath the appliance.
