When Planning for the installation of the fire-

place, the framing height must be increased

from 46-/2 inches to 47-/4 inches, when

installing the drain pan. An additional space

below the fireplace will also be required to

plumb a drain line.

Step . Seal all joints, gaps and corners around

the bottom of the drain pan before positioning

the fireplace on its location (Figure 3 ).

Step 2. On the exposed drain hole, install a PVC

threaded coupling reducer, 3/4" x 1/2" going

from the top of the pan down through the hole.

Apply a silicone-based sealant around the base

and threads before installation.

Step 3. Holding the reducer coupling with a

wrench, thread a 3/4", 90 degree, PVC elbow to

the reducer until it is tight to the metal.

Step 4. Add additional piping to route the drain

to an appropriate location.

Note: To assure proper drainage, the fireplace

must be installed on a leveled surface.

CLEArANCES

Minimum clearance to combustibles for the

fireplace is as follows; sides and back – 1/2"

(13mm), combustible floor – 0" (0mm), adja-

cent wall 6" (152mm), ceiling – 50" (1270mm).

Refer to Figure 4 on this page and Figure 18

on page 13 for more detail.

Note: Clearance behind the nailing flange for

both fireplace models is 1/2" (13mm).

Note: Adjacent wall considerations are for an

adjacent wall to only a single side. Walls should

not be placed at the minimum distance on both

sides of the fireplace. Allow at least 4 feet on

one side of the fireplace.
