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 brass trim kit accessory is available (see Accessories, page 32). Brass 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, but you must follow the clearances shown in Figure 11, page 13. Follow the instructions below to install the fireplace in this manner.

2.An optional blower accessory is available (see Accessories, page 32). There are two options for connecting blower to electrical source.

Option one: Have a licensed electrician install a properly grounded, three- prong 120-volt electrical outlet at fireplace location. Locate outlet inside the framed enclosure. Blower power cord will plug into this outlet.

Option two: Have a licensed electrician connect blower to electrical source at junction box inside fireplace.

If using option one, have electrical outlet installed at this time. If using option two, do not connect blower to electrical source at junction box until step 7.

3.Install gas piping to fireplace location. This installation includes an approved flexible gas line (if allowed by local codes) after the manual shutoff valve. The flexible gas line must be the last item installed on the gas piping.
