Fireplace Placement Requirements

Minimum Framing Dimensions

A 1" clearance is required along the sides and back of the fireplace. The 1" stand-offs on the sides and 10-
1/2" stand-offs on the top of the fireplace are designed to separate the fireplace from the framing members.
These stand-offs may contact the framing members but no material may be placed between the stand-offs

Gas line (3/8" M.P.T. or 1/2"
F.P.T.) should be routed 6-1/2"
behind the framing opening
and 2-3/8" above the base of
the fireplace (see "Gas Line
Connection" for details).

52"

24-3/8"

50-3/4"

Route the electrical line to a position
at the right rear of the fireplace.

If using a remote
control or thermostat,
route the wire to a
location near the gas
line (include an extra 3'
length for hookup).

NOTE: if venting directly to the rear,
make sure there is a min. 12" space
centered behind the fireplace.

NOTE: If using the power heat vent,
allow for the duct passage when
framing the enclosure.

Required Firestop (included with
the fireplace)

3" Clearance Min. (after firestop)

Minimum 65-1/2" above the
base of the fireplace (includes
18" min. rise before elbow -
see the section "Horizontal
Termination Requirements")

5-1/2" Clearance Min.
(before firestop)

1" Clearance min. to the sides
and below the vent (before or
after firestop).

The fireplace enclosure
must not be less than
75" above the base of
the fireplace.

75" Min.

Fireplace must be installed on a level surface capable of supporting the fireplace and vent

Fireplace must be placed directly on wood or non-combustible surface (not on linoleum or carpet)

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.
