FIREBOX INSTALLATION USING OPTIONAL ACCESSORY MANTELS

This firebox may be installed using the corner or cabinet mantel with hearth base accessories against a wall in your home. You must use a GA6090 brass trim kit to properly install the mantel accessories (see Accessories, pages 20 and 21). Follow the instructions below to install the firebox in this manner.

Note: The instructions below show installation using GM100F/GM101U series cabinet mantels and the G3000F/G3001U series hearth base accessories. The hearth base accessory shown is optional for this installation. You can install firebox and cabinet mantel directly on the floor. The corner mantel and face mantel accessories cannot be installed with the G3000F/G3001U series hearth base. You must install corner and face mantels directly on the floor. If mounting firebox and cabinet mantel to the floor or using face mantel or corner mantel, an optional G3005 Slim Base kit may be installed. Note: If using the GM400F/ GM401U series face mantel accessory, a wall recess opening will be needed. See installation instructions for GM400F/GM401U series mantel accessory.

1.Assemble cabinet mantel, hearth base, GA6090 brass trim, and trim accesso- ries. Assembly instructions are included with each accessory.

2.If using an optional GA3500A blower (FB32C model only), install a properly grounded, 120 volt three-prong electrical outlet at firebox location if an outlet is not there. If possible, locate outlet so cabinet mantel will cover it when installed (see Figure 15, page 16).

3.Install gas piping to firebox location. This installation includes an approved flexible gas line (if allowed by local codes) and a manual shutoff valve. The flexible gas line must be the last item installed on the gas piping. See Connect- ing to Gas Supply in your log set owner’s manual.

NOTICE

A qualified service person must connect firebox to gas supply. Follow all local codes.

4.Place hearth base accessory against wall at installation location. Cut an access hole in hearth top to run flexible gas line to firebox (see Figure 14). Make sure to locate access hole so cabinet mantel will cover it when installed. Note: You can secure base to floor using wood screws. Countersink screw heads and putty over.
