In planning the installation for the replace, it is necessary to
determine where the unit is to be installed and whether optional
accessories are desired. Gas supply piping should also be planned
at this time.
The replace can be mounted on any of these surfaces:
1. A at hard combustible or non-combustible surface.
2. A raised platform of combustible or non-combustible material.
3. Four (4) corners of the replace so contact is made on all four
perimeter edges on the bottom of the unit.
(Example: Four (4) concrete masonry blocks.)
If the fireplace is installed directly on carpeting, tile or other
combustible material other than wood ooring, it should be installed
on a metal or wood panel extending the full width and depth of the
unit.
At this point, you should have decided what components to include
in your installation, and where the replace is to be located. If this
has not been done, stop and consult your dealer for assistance
with this planning.
BUILT-IN FIREPLACE INSTALLATION
This unit is designed to be installed in a zero-clearance enclosure.
This means the combustible material can come in contact with the
rebox.
Built-In Fireplace Installation
Built-in installation of this replace involves installing the
replace into a framed-in enclosure. This makes the front of the
replace ush with a wall.
Frame in rough opening. Use dimensions show in Figure 3 for a
conventional rough opening. Use dimensions shown in Figure 4
for corner rough opening. Use Figure 5 for an elevated installation.
Be sure to provided support to the bottom of the replace. Be sure
to provide gas line for replace and electrical power for optional
blower assembly.
1. Gas line connections must be made at this time. When
facing the appliance, the gas supply will enter on the right-
hand side. See "Gas Supply" page 14.
2. Insert replace into enclosure. Attach to wall with screws
through holes on cabinet sides.
3. Level rebox. See "Positioning, Leveling and Securing Insert"
on Page 8.
4. Finished wall surface will be ush to the leading edge of re-
place top and sides.
5. If used, the surround panel assembly is installed after the re-
place has been installed with all the gas and electrical connec-
tion completed. See Page 17. Refer to instructions included
with the surround panel kit.
6. Installation of built-in replace is completed.
