FIREPLACE CLEARANCES

FIREPLACE CLEARANCES

The fireplace may be placed directly on a combustible floor, against a combustible wall at marked clear- ances, or on a raised wooden platform.

If the fireplace is to be installed on a raised wooden platform, the platform must be a continuous level surface. The fireplace must be secured in place so it cannot shift positions. Only the header (see below) may rest on the standoffs on top of the firebox.

When the firebox is installed over carpeting, vinyl tile, or any combustible material other than wood flooring, it must be installed on a metal or wood panel extending its full width and depth. Alternatively, the carpeting, vinyl tile, etc. may be removed beneath the fireplace before installing.

COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS MUST NOT BE INSTALLED OVER OR TOUCH ANY BLACK PAINTED SURFACE. DO NOT BLOCK HEAT CIRCULATING AIR OUTLETS. DOING SO MAY

RESULT IN POTENTIAL FIRE HAZARDS.

1.Sidewall Clearances: Clearances from the side of the fireplace opening to any adjacent combustible wall should not be less than 7"right side and 7" left side.

2.Ceiling Clearances: The ceiling height should not be less than 26" from the top of the fireplace opening.

INSTALLING THE FIREBOX

This list of specific instructions will help you make certain that every installation operation is performed correctly. Complete the installation steps in the sequence shown.

LOCAL BUILDING CODES SHOULD BE CONSULTED IN ALL CASES AS TO THE PARTICULAR REQUIREMENTS CONCERNING THE INSTALLATION OF FACTORY BUILT FIREPLACES.

Select the location for the fireplace by taking into consideration the factors previously outlined in the “Choosing the Location.”

Framing the Firebox

The width of the framed opening must be 35- 17/32". The height of the framed opening must be 25 1/8". For depth of opening see side view of this page.

The entire fireplace can be elevated above the floor to achieve a raised hearth effect. This can be done by adding a small platform to achieve the desired height.

NOTE: The wiring for the blower must be installed during the framing stage. Insulation should be used in the framing on the back, sides, and top.

Install the Firebox

Install the firebox into the framed opening by placing it directly in front of the opening and sliding it into the proper position. Please follow wooden surround instructions.(Also see page 25)

Level the Firebox

Check the level of the firebox on the top edge of the fireplace face. Shim if necessary.
