Insert panels are used to close off the opening of your fireplace when installing a gas insert. Avalon offers three choices of panels for the Rosario, Cambridge and Victorian Lace faces.

Rectangular Panels

The Rectangular Panel System is available in three sizes and is the most versatile.

DVS 4”x 6” - Covers 25” H x 37 1/8” W DVS 8”x 10” - Covers 28 7/8” H x 40 1/4” W DVS 10”x 13” - Covers 31 7/8” H x 44 1/4” W

DVL 4”x 6” - Covers 29” H x 40” W

DVL 8”x 10” - Covers 33 3/8” H x 44 3/16” W

DVL 10”x 13” - Covers 36 3/8” H x 48 3/16” W

Inside-Fit Panels

You can modify (cut-down) the standard rectangular panels to fit the inside opening of your fireplace. This allows you to showcase your original fireplace finish and the fireplace face.

Lower Zero Clearance Panel

Designed to be used with the Rectangular panel system, this lower panel offers a finished appearance to your installation when the existing fireplace opening is elevated above the floor. This panel can be cut to size and

will cover up to 7” below the insert.

Bottom Panel Only

Insert Wiring Kit

Normal installation requires the cord for the standard convection fan to run out from the bottom of the finish panel to a wall outlet. If you do not want the power cord running across your hearth,

consider using the optional Insert Wiring Kit (Part # 97200315). This kit allows you to hard-wire

the insert’s electrical connection within your existing fireplace. Ask your Avalon dealer for details.
