•Gas supply piping requirements.

•Electrical wiring requirements.

•Framing and finishing details.

•Whether optional accessories—devices such as a wall switch or remote control—are desired.

Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service or maintenance can cause injury or property damage. For assistance or additional information, consult a qualified service technician, service agency or your dealer.
