	Space Requirements

Clearance Requirements

The top, back, and sides of the ﬁreplace are deﬁned by stand-offs. The minimum clearance to a perpendicular wall extending past the face of the ﬁreplace is 4 inches (102 mm). The back of the ﬁreplace may be recessed 23 (584 mm) inches (546 mm) into combustible construction.

Minimum Clearances

	Inches	mm
Vertical Sections	1	25
Horizontal Sections
Top	3	75
Bottom	1	25
Sides	1	25
At Wall Firestops
Top	3	76
Bottom	1	25
Sides	1	25

For minimum clearances, see the direct vent termination clearance diagrams on pages 20 and 21 in this manual.

The distance from the unit to combustible construction is to be measured from the unit outer wrap surface to the combustible construction, NOT from the screw heads that secure the unit together.

Step 2. Framing the Fireplace

Fireplace framing can be built before or after the ﬁreplace is set in place. Framing should be positioned to accommodate wall coverings and ﬁreplace facing material. The diagram below shows framing reference dimensions.

CAUTION: MEASURE FIREPLACE DIMENSIONS, AND VERIFY FRAMING METHODS AND WALL COVERING DETAILS, BEFORE FRAMING.
