MANTELS

Depending on the width of the mantel it may be installed higher or lower from the top of the louvre opening. See drawing and chart below for proper installation height of your combustible mantel piece. Non-combustible mantels may be installed at any height above the appliance opening.

When using paint or lacquer to finish the mantel, such paint or lacquer must be heat resistant to prevent discolouration.

FRAMING AND FINISHING

1.Choose fireplace location.

2.Place fireplace into position.

3.Frame in fireplace with a header across the top. It is important to allow for finished face when setting the depth of the frame.

FINAL FINISHING

Non-combustible materials such as brick and tile can be extended over the face of the unit (Do not cover louvres or glass door). If a Trim Kit is going to be installed, brick and tile will have to be installed flush with the side of this appliance.

HEARTH

A hearth is not mandatory but it is recommended for aesthetic purposes. We recommend a non-combustible hearth which does not obstruct louvre opening.

Cold climate installation recommendation: When installing this unit against a non- insulated exterior wall or chase, it is mandatory that the outer walls be insulated to conform to applicable insulation codes.
