BUILT-IN FIREpLACE INSTALLATION
Built-in installation of this fireplace involves
installing fireplace into a framed-in enclo-

with wall. If installing a mantel above the
fireplace, you must follow the clearances
shown in Figure 20, page 13. Follow the
instructions below to install the fireplace in
this manner.

sions shown in Figure 14, page 12, for the
rough opening. The height is 33" which is
