TYPICAL INSTALLATION SEQUENCE
Horizontal Vent Termination Clearances
The typical sequence of installation follows, however, each installation is unique resulting in variations to those described.
See the page numbers references in the follow- ing steps for detailed procedures.
Step 1. (page 6) Construct the appliance fram- ing. Position the appliance within the framing and secure with nailing brackets.
Step 2. (page 6) Route gas supply line to appliance location.
Step 3. (page 10) Install the vent system and exterior termination. Install additional restrictor, if needed.
Step 4. (page 21) Field Wiring
a. Millivolt Appliances – The operating control switch is factory installed.
b. Electronic Appliances – Connect 120 Vac electrical power to the appliance receptacle.
Step 5. (page 22) Make connection to gas supply.
Step 6. (page 23) Install the logs and glow- ing embers.
Step 7. (page 23) Checkout appliance operation.
Step 8. (page 23) Install glass door frame assembly.
Step 9. (page 24) Adjust burner to ensure proper flame appearance.
DETAILED INSTALLATION STEPS
The appliance is shipped with all gas controls and components installed and
Open the two latches (located under the firebox floor) securing the glass door. Remove the door by tilting it outward at the bottom and lifting it up. Set the door aside protecting it from inadvertent damage. See Figure 39 on page 23.

Step 1. FRAMING
Frame these appliances as illustrated in Figure 9 on page 8, unless the appliance is to be installed in a corner.
See Figure 10 on page 8 for corner framing installations. All framing details must allow for a minimum clearance to combustible framing mem- bers as shown in Table 2 on page 4.
If the appliance is to be elevated above floor level, a solid continuous platform must be constructed. Headers may be in direct contact with the appli- ance top spacers but must not be supported by them or notched to fit around them. All construc- tion above the appliance must be self supporting, DO NOT use the appliance for structural support.
The fireplace should be secured to the side framing members using the unit's nailing flanges - one top and bottom on each side of the fireplace front. See Figure 6. Use 8d nails or their equivalent.
Step 2. ROUTING GAS LINE
Route a 1/2" (13 mm) gas line along the inside of the left side framing as shown in Figure 7. Gas lines must be routed, constructed and made of materials that are in strict accordance with local codes and regulations.
All appliances are
All horizontal terminations may be located as close as 6” (152mm) to any
sidewalls only, if the
is used.

Note: The nailing flanges, combustible members and screw heads located in areas directly adjacent to the nailing flanges, are EXEMPT from the 1” clearance to combustible requirements for the firebox outer wrapper. Combustible framing may be in direct contact with the nailing flanges and may be located closer than 1” from screw heads and the firebox wrapper in areas adjacent to the nailing flanges. Frame the opening to the exact dimensions specified in the framing details of this manual.
