Figure 4. Fireplace Dimensions and Locations

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 one inch (25 mm). The metal ends of the fireplace may NOT be recessed into combustible construction.

Minimum Clearances

from the Fireplace to Combustible Materials

	Inches	mm
Glass Sides or Ends	.......... 36	914
Floor	0	0
Rear Vent	1	25
Metal Sides or Ends	1/2	13
Top	4 1/2	114
Ceiling*	31	787

*The clearance to the ceiling is measured from the top of the unit, excluding the standoffs (see Figure 35).

The distance from the unit to combustible construction is to be measured from the unit outer warp surface to the com- bustible construction, NOT from the screw heads that se- cure the unit together.

Minimum Clearances

For minimum clearances, see the direct vent termination clearance diagrams on pages 27 and 28 in this manual.

Step 2. Framing the Fireplace
