CONVENTIONAL FIREPLACE
INSTALLATION
Conventional installation of this fireplace involves
installing fireplace along with the corner, face or
cabinet mantel with hearth base accessories against
a wall in your home. Follow the instructions in
this section to install the fireplace in this manner.
Note:
The instructions in this section show instal-
lation using the cabinet mantel and the GC3333F/
GC3334U/G3004W/GC3335F/G3007U series
hearth base accessories. The hearth base accessory
shown is optional for this installation. You can
install fireplace and cabinet/corner mantel directly
on the floor. The corner mantel accessory cannot be
installed with the GC3333F/GC3334U/G3004W/
GC3335F/G3007U hearth base. The corner mantel
can be paired with the G3008F/G3009U/G3010F
corner hearth base. If mounting fireplace and cabinet
or corner mantel to the floor, an optional G3005J/
3005S/3005B Slim Base kit may be installed.
1. Assemble cabinet mantel, hearth base and
trim accessories. Assembly instructions are
included with each accessory.
2. When installing blower, install a properly
grounded, 120 volt three-prong electrical out-
let at fireplace location if an outlet is not there.
If possible, locate outlet so cabinet mantel will
cover it when installed (see Figure 9).
3. Install gas piping to fireplace location. This in-
stallation includes an approved flexible gas line
(if allowed by local codes) after the equipment
shutoff valve. The flexible gas line must be the
last item installed on the gas piping. See Install-
ing Gas Piping to Fireplace Location, page 13.
4. Place hearth base accessory against wall at instal-
lation location. Cut an access hole in hearth top
to run flexible gas line to fireplace (see Figure
9). Make sure to locate access hole so cabinet
mantel will cover it when installed. Note: You
can secure base to floor using wood screws.
Countersink screw heads and putty over.
