Built-In Fireplace

Installation

Built-in installation of this fireplace involves installing fireplace into a framed-in enclosure. This makes the front of fireplace flush with wall. An optional trim kit accessory is available (see Accessories, page 40). Trim will extend past sides of fireplace approximately 1/2 inch. This will cover the rough edges of the wall opening. If installing a built-in mantel above the fireplace, you must follow the clearances shown in Figure 10, page 12. Follow the instructions below to install the fireplace in this manner.
