materials) along the sides and back of the fireplace. These stand-offs may contact the framing
members but no material may be placed between the stand-offs.

to the right rear of the fireplace.

the vent will be centered 41-3/4" above

the base of the fireplace.

and 2" above the vent to combustibles.

Due to the high temperature of the fireplace, it should be located out of traffic and away from furniture
and draperies.

This heater may be placed in a bedroom. Please be aware of the large amount of heat this appliance
produces when determining a location.

Clearances

When installed, walls in front of the fireplace must be a minimum 1" to the side of the faceplate.
