HT34-PV Series Power Vent Gas Fireplace
Part No. XG0530 - 041510
Installation
Installing The Fireplace Shell
The fireplace may be installed in any location that maintains proper clear-
ances to air conditioning ducts, electrical wiring and plumbing. Safety,
as well as efficiency of operation, must be considered when selecting
the fireplace location. Try to select a location that does not interfere
with room traffic, has adequate ventilation, and offers an accessible
pathway for Power Vent installation. Refer to page 4 - Vent Installation
for more information.
The fireplace dimensions for HT34-PV models are shown below:
When installing a shelf over the top of the fireplace, the following
guidelines must be adhered to: For Rear Vent applications the
minimum clearance from the top of the fireplace to a shelf is 9". For
Top Vent applications, the minimum clearance is 17 1/2". (Minimum
2" clearance must still be maintained around the vent pipes.)

Clearances
These clearances apply to all dimensions except the framed opening,
where the clearance to combustibles is 0". The HT34-PV Series
clearances to combustible materials are:
Unprotected combustible walls which are perpendicular to the fireplace
opening, must not project beyond the shaded area shown in Figure 25.
For protection against freezing temperatures, it is recommended that
outer walls of the chase be insulated with a vapor barrier. This will reduce
the possibility of a cold-air convection current on the fireplace.
