Installation Instructions

Locating the Fireplace

Figure 2 shows some of the many ways your fireplace may be installed. Consider the traffic pattern in your room and the location of doors and windows. Moving air from ceiling fans, open doors and hot air grilles may cause the flames to soot. If a disturbance is found that effects the flames, it must be eliminated by turning off the ceiling fan, closing the door or closing or moving the hot air register. A corner location may be best where space is limited.

Your fireplace weighs no more than some of your fine furniture. If the fireplace is located near a load bear- ing wall, additional supports to the foundation will not be necessary. HEAVY FACINGS SUCH AS BRICK, STONE, ETC., MAY REQUIRE ADDITIONAL FOUNDA- TION SUPPORT.

ALTHOUGH THIS UNIT MAY BE INSTALLED ON COMBUSTIBLE SURFACES, IT MUST NOT BE IN- STALLED ON CARPET OR VINYL.

Locating the fireplace.

Gas Line

The gas line must be installed before framing in the fire- place by a licensed gas line installer.

Drafts

Do not locate the fireplace in high traffic areas or areas exposed to high drafts and winds. Locate the fireplace away from furniture and draperies.

Fireplace Clearances

The fireplace may be placed directly on a combustible floor, against a combustible wall at marked clearances 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 sur- face. The fireplace must be secured in place so it can- not shift positions. The nailing flanges on the sides of the firebox make securing it to the framing easy. They were designed to allow the installation of 1/2” wallboard or plywood flush with the face of the fireplace.

Only the header (Fig. 1) may rest on the standoffs on top of the firebox.

When the fireplace 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 from beneath the fireplace before installing. COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS MUST NOT BE INSTALLED OVER OR TOUCH ANY BLACK PAINTED SURFACE. DO NOT BLOCK HEAT CIRCU- LATING AIR OUTLETS. DOING SO MAY RESULT IN POTENTIAL FIRE HAZARD.

Clearances

To ensure a safe installation the following instructions must be carefully observed.

1.Sidewall Clearances: Clearances from the side of the fireplace opening to any combustible wall should not be less than 5”. (Fig. 3a)

2.Ceiling Clearances: The ceiling height should not be less than 42” from the top of the fireplace open- ing.

3.Mantel Clearances:

a.If the fireplace has no mantelpiece, then the heat resistant material must extend upwards a dis- tance of at least 9¹⁄" from the fireplace opening. A mantel projection must be a minimum of 24” above the top fireplace opening if a canopy is not installed. (Fig. 3b)

b.Noncombustible materials used in this installation such as slate, marble, tile, etc. must be at least 1/2" thick. Do not install a combustible material behind sheet metal. Failure to use noncombus- tible materials above the opening as specified in these instructions may cause damage to the materials used and create a fire hazard.

c.A heat reducing canopy is shipped with the fireplace. Use of this canopy is optional in order to reduce mantel heights as shown in Figure 3d. If the canopy is installed, a combustible mantel piece may project 2" from the wall at 6¹⁄" above the fireplace opening. A 6" mantel projection at 13" above the fireplace opening and a 10" projec- tion at 22" above the opening. (Fig. 3a and 3d)

To install the optional canopy, remove the four (4) screws supplied with a Phillips screwdriver. Two (2)

UVDR36C, UVDR42C specifications

CFM Corporation is a leading name in the world of efficient ventilation and air quality management, and its UVDR series, specifically the UVDR36C and UVDR42C models, stands out for their innovative features and advanced technologies. Designed for residential and commercial applications, these units are engineered to enhance air quality while ensuring energy efficiency.

The UVDR36C model is equipped with a powerful 36-inch UV-C air purifier that helps to eliminate airborne pathogens, viruses, and bacteria. This model utilizes ultraviolet light technology, which is proven to disinfect and purify air more effectively than traditional methods. Likewise, the UVDR42C offers a broader 42-inch purification coverage, catering to larger spaces or more demanding air quality needs.

Both models feature a robust filtration system that combines high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filters and activated carbon, trapping harmful particulates while neutralizing odors. The HEPA filters help to capture dust, pollen, pet dander, and other allergens, significantly improving indoor air quality. The activated carbon works to remove volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and other undesirable smells, promoting a fresher environment.

One of the standout characteristics of the UVDR series is their smart technology integration. These models are equipped with real-time air quality monitoring sensors, which adjust the purification levels based on the detected pollutants. This intelligent feature not only maximizes efficiency but also ensures that the air remains clean without unnecessary energy consumption.

Energy efficiency is a hallmark of the UVDR series. Designed to minimize power usage while maintaining optimal performance, both models operate quietly, making them ideal for homes, offices, and various commercial environments. This energy-efficient operation is complemented by an easy-to-use interface and user-friendly controls, allowing for seamless adjustments and monitoring.

The construction quality of both the UVDR36C and UVDR42C is robust, ensuring durability and longevity. With modern aesthetics, they fit seamlessly into any interior decor. Furthermore, maintenance is straightforward, with easy access to filters for replacement, making upkeep hassle-free.

Overall, the CFM Corporation UVDR36C and UVDR42C models represent a compelling choice for those seeking advanced air purification solutions. With their unique features, innovative technologies, and commitment to energy efficiency, CFM continues to set the standard in air quality management.
