BUILT-IN FIREPLACE
INSTALLATION
Built-in installation of this fireplace involves in-
stalling fireplace into a framed-in enclosure. This
makes the front of fireplace flush with wall. Follow
the instructions below to install the fireplace in this
manner. If installing a built-in mantel above the
fireplace, you must follow the clearances shown
in Figure 9, page 11. If using for built-in instal-
lation off of the floor, follow clearances shown
in Figure 4.
