Site Selection and Preparation

! NOTE 1: A 15 Amp, 120 Volt circuit is required. A

dedicated circuit is preferred but not essential in all

cases. A dedicated circuit will be required if, after

installation, the circuit breaker trips or fuse blows on a

regular basis when the heater is operating. Additional

appliances on the same circuit may exceed the current

rating of the circuit breaker.

WARNING: Ensure the power cord is not installed so

that it is pinched or against a sharp edge and ensure

that the power cord is stored or secured to avoid tripping

or snagging to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock or

injury to persons.

Construction and electrical outlet wiring must comply

with local building codes and other applicable

regulations to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock and

injury to persons.

Do not attempt to wire your own new outlets or circuits.

To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock or injury to

persons, always use a licensed electrician.

This section provides instructions for selecting a location

and preparing the site to install the fireplace into your

surround.
