MANTEL INSTALLATION

Fireplace Installation Using Optional Mantel.

This fireplace may be installed using the cabinet mantel with hearth base accessory against a wall in your home. You must use one of the Satin Black or Polished BrassTrim Kits available when installing your fireplace with the optional mantel kit. (See Accessories on page 28 & 29). NOTE: The Trim Kits provide a finished appearance covering rough and/or unfinished mantel edges.

NOTE: The instructions below show installation using the VFGO32M/VFUF32M series cabinet mantels and the VFGO32B/VFUF32B series hearth base accessories. The hearth base accessory shown is optional for this installation. You can install the fireplace and mantel directly on the floor. The VFUN32FM face mantel accessories cannot be installed with the VFGO32B/VFUN32B series hearth base. You must install the face mantels directly on the floor.

NOTE: If using the VFUF32FM series face mantel accessory, a wall recess opening will be needed. See installation instructions for VFUF32FM series face mantel accessory.

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

2.If using an optional VF32B blower, install a properly grounded, 120 volt three-prong electrical outlet at firebox location if an outlet is not there. If possible, locate outlet so cabinet mantel will cover it when installed (see Figure 11, below).

3.Install gas piping to fireplace location. For this installation you will need an approved flexible gas line (if allowed by local codes) and a manual shutoff valve. The flexible gas line must be the last item installed on the gas piping. See Connecting to Gas Supply on pages 14 & 15.

NOTICE

A qualified service person must connect fireplace to gas supply. Follow all local codes.

4.Place (optional) hearth base accessory against wall at installation location. Cut an access hole in hearth top to run flexible gas line to fireplace (see Figure 11). 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.
