CAUTION: This fireplace cre- ates warm air currents. These currents move heat to wall sur- faces next to fireplace. Installing fireplace next to vinyl or cloth wall coverings or operating fireplace where impurities (such as, but not limited to, tobacco smoke, aromatic candles, clean- ing fluids, oil or kerosene lamps, etc.) in the air exist, may discolor walls or cause odors.

IMPORTANT: Vent-free fireplaces add moisture to the air. Although this is beneficial, installing fire- place in rooms without enough ventilation air may cause mildew to form from too much moisture. See Air for Combustion and Ventilation, page 6.

Note: When installing fireplace directly on carpet- ing, tile or other combustible material, other than wood flooring, the fireplace shall be installed on a metal or wood panel extending the full width and depth of the fireplace.

Built-In Fireplace Installation

Built-in installation of this fireplace involves installing fireplace into a framed-in enclosure. This makes the front of fireplace flush with wall. An optional brass trim kit accessory is available (see Accessories, page 27). Brass trim will extend past sides of fireplace approximately 1/2". This will cover the rough edges of the wall opening. If installing a built-in mantel above the fireplace, you must follow the clearances shown in Figure 12, page 12. Follow the instructions below to install the fireplace in this manner. Note: Your fireplace is designed to be used in zero clearance installations. Wall or framing material can be placed directly against any exterior surface on the rear, sides or top of your fireplace.
