Installation Instructions

1.

With the insert 12” from the
fireplace, install the side
surround panels (see the
directions to the right).

2.

Adjust the position of the
side panels so they are: 1)
flush with the bottom of the
insert; 2) both the same
distance back from the
front of the insert; 3)
perpendicular to the floor
(use the top panel, if
necessary, to judge
alignment). Tighten the
screws that hold the side
panels in place.

3.

Place the insert into the
fireplace and connect the
flue (if using a positive or
direct connection). Install
the top panel and trim
following the directions
below.

Insulation Installation

(required only for face seal
installations)

1.

With the insert drawn 6"
from the fireplace, glue the
insulation strip included
with the insert to the back
of the panels using RTV
silicon or stove gasket
cement. The insulation
should be installed so it
overlaps the fireplace
opening to form a seal
between the panels and
the fireplace face. Let the
silicon or cement dry.

Jacket

Attach the side panels with the two screws
included with the insert. The screws pass
through the side convection jacket and
attach to the U-Nuts. Do not tighten the
screws fully until the panels are aligned.

Rotate the panel back
and place it so the inside
flange fits inside the side
convection jacket. Note
how the stove top fits
into the notch.

Optional Trim Installation:

Insert one leg of each "L" bracket into the top

and side trim piece. Align the trim to form a

precise corner, then tighten the two set

screws with a small standard screwdriver.

Slide the trim over the panels. Place the

spring clips behind the panels at the locations

shown. This keeps the trim tight against the

panel.

Optional Knock-Out

An optional knock-out is provided on both

sides if the power cord is routed behind the

surround panel.

2.

Push the insert into the fireplace, allowing the insulation to form a seal between the panels and the
fireplace. Use a screwdriver to tuck any exposed insulation behind the panels.
