Option two: Have a licensed electrician connect blower to elec- trical source at junction box inside fireplace.

7.Bend four nailing flanges on outer casing with pliers (see Figure 8, page 9).

8.Attach fireplace to wall studs using nails or wood screws through holes in nailing flange.

9.Check all gas connections for leaks. See Checking Gas Con- nections, pages 14 and 15.

IMPORTANT: When finishing your firebox, combustible materi- als such as wall board, gypsum board, sheet rock, drywall, plywood, etc. may be butted up next to the sides and top of the firebox. Combustible materials should never overlap the firebox front fac- ing. Firebox should not be placed on top of carpet or other kinds of fibrous material.
