MOBILE HOME INSTALLATION

In Canada, mobile home installation may be vented hori- zontally or vertically. In the United States, it may only be installed vertically. See "Vertical Venting" or "Horizontal Air Terminal Installation" for installation.

The fireplace is equipped with two 1/4" diameter holes located in the front left and right corners of the base. For mobile home installations, the fireplace must be fastened in place. Use #10 hex head screws, inserted through the holes in the base to secure. It is recommended that the fireplace be secured in all installations.

Always turn off the pilot and the fuel supply at the source, prior to moving the mobile home.

After moving the mobile home and prior to lighting the fireplace, ensure that the logs are positioned correctly.

FRAMING

It is best to frame your fireplace after it is positioned and the vent system is installed. Use 2x4's and frame to local building codes. FIGURES 31-33.

It is not necessary to install a hearth extension with this fireplace system.

Note: In order to avoid the possibility of exposed insulation or vapour barrier coming in contact with the fireplace body, it is recommended that the walls of the fireplace enclosure be “finished” (ie: drywall/sheetrock), as you would finish any other outside wall of a home. This will ensure that clear- ance to combustibles is maintained within the cavity.

When roughing in the fireplace, raise the fireplace to ac- commodate for the thickness of the finished floor materi- als, i.e. tile, carpeting, hard wood, which if not planned for will interfere with the opening of the lower access door and the installation of many decorative flashing accessories.

Objects placed in front of the fireplace should be kept a minimum of 48" away from the front face.

Anon-combustible finishing material must be used for a minimum of 3" above the fireplace

Combustible materials may be installed flush with the front sides of the fireplace but must not cover or protrude past any of the black face-side-areas of the fireplace. Non-com- bustible material (brick, stone or ceramic tile) may pro- trude in these areas.

NAILING TABS

To install the fireplace face flush with the finished wall, position the framework to accommodate the thickness of the finished wall. Bend out the four nailing tabs, attached on either side of the fireplace and secure to the 2x4 framing. The tabs will facilitate the installation of either a 3/4" or a 1" finished wall thickness.The nailing tabs must not be removed.

MANTLE CLEARANCES & ENCLOSURES

Combustible mantle clearance can vary according to the mantle depth. Use the graph to help evaluate the clear- ance needed. Curtains, above the fireplace, must not be positioned lower than the 3" distance required for the 3" combustible mantle. These same requirements apply to

any combustibles protruding on either side of the fire- place.
