INSTALLATION SPECIFICATIONS PG121 - See Thru Note: These units are non-load bearing.
INSTALLATION PG121LC - Left Corner Unit Note: These units are non-load bearing.
INSTALLATION LOCATING YOUR GAS FIREPLACE 1) When selecting a location for your stove, ensure that the clearances are met as outlined on page 9. A) PG121 - See Thru 2) Provide adequate clearances for servicing. 3) The appliance must be installed on a flat, solid, continuous surface (e.g. wood, metal, concrete). This may be the floor, or raised up on a platform to enhance its visual impact.
INSTALLATION CLEARANCES The clearances listed below are Minimum distances unless otherwise stated (refer to diagrams on page 8): Clearance to Combustibles from: Back 0" (0mm) Side 0" (0mm) Floor 0" (0mm) CAUTION REQUIREMENTS: The top, back and sides of the fireplace are defined by standoffs. The metal ends of the standoffs may NOT be recessed into combustible construction. Determine the total thickness of the finished floor (eg.
INSTALLATION FRAMING AND FINISHING 1) For ease of installation, frame your fireplace after it is positioned and the flue system is installed. Remember to install the top standoffs. See page 11 for assembly. Use 2x4's and frame to local building codes. Framing Dimensions PG121 (See Thru) PG131 (Pier) PG121LC / PG121RC (Corner Unit) CAUTION: Verify your fireplace dimensions, framing methods and finished wall facing details before framing.
INSTALLATION FACING & FINISHING REQUIREMENTS This fireplace is supplied with a 3" metal extension trim above the fireplace. The extension trim may be replaced if the framing is faced with a noncombustible material placed flush with the front and side face of the unit and extending from the top of the unit. (ie. tile, slate, etc.) UNIT ASSEMBLY PRIOR TO INSTALLATION The 4 Top Standoffs must be correctly positioned and attached to the top before unit is slipped into position.

INSTALLATION VERTICAL TERMINATION 1) Maintain the 1-1/4" clearances (air spaces) to combustibles when passing through ceilings, walls, roofs, enclosures, attic rafter, or other nearby combustible surfaces. Do not pack air spaces with insulation. Check pages 17-19 for the maximum vertical rise of the flueing system and the maximum horizontal offset limitations. 4) Assemble the desired lengths of pipe and elbows. Ensure that all pipes and elbow connections are in the fully twist-locked position and sealed.
INSTALLATION roof pitches, the vertical height must be increased. A poor draft, or down drafting can result from high wind conditions near big trees or adjoining roof lines, in these cases, increasing the flue height may solve the problem. 7) Ensure flue is vertical and secure the base of the flashing to the roof with roofing rails, slide storm collar over the pipe section and seal with a mastic. 8) Install the vertical termination cap by twistlocking it.
