INSTALLING THE FIREPLACE
Step 1. Slide the fireplace into prepared framing or position fireplace in its final position and frame later.
The fireplace may not be recessed into a combustible floor. Maintain the floor to hearth clearance established by the fireplace lower front face.
Step 2. Insert the provided metal safety strips, beneath the fireplace as illustrated (Figures 21, 22 & 23). The safety strips should overlap 1/2 min. for continual coverage of the floor.
Note: Safety strips are not required when fire- place rests on a noncombustible surface.
