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

7.Bend four nailing flanges on outer cas- ing with pliers (see Figure 7).

8.Attach fireplace to wall studs using nails or wood screws through holes in nailing flange.

9.Check all gas connections for leaks. See Checking Gas Connections, page 14.
