Moisture Resistance

This outdoor fireplace will shed moderate amounts of water, but is not waterproof. Water and condensing wa- ter vapor may enter the chase under certain conditions.

The fireplace will not perform as an exterior wall. Mois- ture penetration must be considered for construction that places the fireplace in structure walls or on mois- ture sensitive surfaces.

When installed on exterior walls: MHSC recommends the fireplace chase be constructed outside the struc- ture's weather envelope. Where the platform meets the wall, use a flashing detail similar to that required for attached decks. Chase platforms, including hearths should slope away from the structure at 1/4 in per foot. The fireplace can be shimmed level.

When installed on surfaces where water may collect or cause damage: MHSC recommends a slope of 1/8 in to 1/4 in per foot towards the drain port suggested. The fireplace can be shimmed level.

Hearths should slope away from the front of the fire- place and chase at 1/8 in to 1/4 in per foot. Metal safety strips must be on top of any combustible hearth materi- als used for moisture management.

Framing and Finishing

Check appliance to make sure it is levelled and properly positioned.

The appliance should only be mounted on the following surfaces:

A flat combustible (burnable) surface.

A raised wooden platform.

A concrete block or other solid object placed beneath each of the four corners of the appliance.

To mount the appliance:

1.Choose unit location.

2.Four (4) nailing flanges are supplied with the fire- place (found on the fireplace hearth). To level the box and secure it firmly in place, remove the nailing flanges from the hearth and install at the sides of the fireplace as shown in Figure 4.

Finishing

CAUTION: All joints between the finished wall and the appliance surround (top and sides) may be sealed only with non-com- bustible material. Only noncombustible material can be applied as facing to the ap- pliance surround (the black painted face).

Finish the wall with the material of your choice. Refer to Figures 3a and 3b for specific clearances when install- ing a combustible mantel or other combustible projec- tion.
