CONVENTIONAL FIREPLACE INSTALLATION

Conventional installation of fireplace involves in- stalling fireplace along with corner, face, or cabinet mantel with hearth base accessories against a wall in your home. Follow instructions below to install fireplace in this manner.

Note: The instructions below show installation us- ing the cabinet mantel and hearth base accessories (see Accessories, page 36). The hearth base acces- sory shown is optional for this installation. You can install fireplace and cabinet mantel directly on the floor. The corner mantel accessory cannot be installed with the hearth bases. You must install corner mantel directly on the floor.

1.Assemble cabinet mantel, hearth base, and trim accessories. Assembly instructions are included with each accessory.

2.When installing blower, install a properly grounded, 120 volt three-prong electrical out- let at fireplace location if an outlet is not there. If possible, locate outlet so cabinet mantel will cover it when installed (see Figure 20).

3.If not already completed, install gas piping to fireplace location. This installation includes an approved flexible gas line (if allowed by local codes) after the equipment shutoff valve. The flexible gas line must be the last item installed on the gas piping. See Installing Gas Piping to Fireplace Location, page 13.

4.Place hearth base accessory against wall at installation location. Cut an access hole in hearth top to run flexible gas line to fireplace (see Figure 20). Make sure to locate access hole so cabinet mantel will cover it when installed. Note: You can secure base to floor using wood screws. Countersink screw heads and putty over.

5.Route flexible gas line through access hole in hearth base.

6.Center cabinet mantel on hearth base (see Figure 21). Make sure mantel is flush against wall.

7.Break off nailing flanges (see Figure 22) with hammer or pliers.
