Fireplace Location

Carefully select the best location for installation of your unvented fireplace. The following factors should be taken into consideration.

Clearance to side wall, ceiling, woodwork and window or other combustibles. Refer to “Clearances” section on Page 10. Minimum clearances to combustibles must be main- tained.

Location must not be affected by drafts caused by kitchen exhaust fans, ceiling fans, return air registers for forced air furnaces / air conditioners, windows or doors.

Installation must provide adequate ventilation and combustion air.

DO NOT INSTALL THIS MODEL IN A BEDROOM OR BATHROOM.

Location should be out of high traffic areas and away from furniture and draperies due to heat from firebox.

Never obstruct the front opening of the unvented fireplace or restrict the flow of combus- tion and ventilation air.

Minimize modifications to existing construction. Refer to Figure 4 below for location sug- gestions.

Do not install in the vicinity where gasoline or other flammable liquids may be stored. The unvented firebox must be kept clear and free from the combustible materials.
