CONVENTIONAL FIREPLACE INSTALLATION
Conventional installation of this fireplace involves installing fireplace along with the corner, face, or cabinet mantel with hearth base accessories against a wall in your home. Follow the instructions in this section to install the fireplace in this manner. Note: The instructions in this section show instal- lation using the cabinet mantel and the G3333F/G3334U/G3004W/G3335F/G3007U se- ries hearth base accessories. The hearth base ac- cessory shown is optional for this installation. You can install fireplace and cabinet/corner mantel di- rectly on the floor. The corner mantel accessory cannot be installed with the G3333F/G3334U/ G3004W/G3335F/G3007U hearth base. The cor- ner mantel can be paired with the G3008F/ G3009U/G3010F corner hearth base. If mounting fireplace and cabinet or corner mantel to the floor, an optional G3005J/3005S/3005B Slim Base kit may be installed.
