PRE-INSTALLATION INFORMATION

CAUTION

Measure fireplace dimensions and verify framing methods & wall covering details before framing

construction begins.

Finishing Material:

NOTE

Any remote wiring (i.e. remote control, wall switch or 120 volt wiring) must be done prior to final finishing to

avoid costly reconstruction.

Only noncombustible materials (i.e. brick, tile, slate, steel, or other materials with a UL fire rating of Zero) may be used to cover the black surface of the appliance. A 300°F minimum adhesive may be used to attach facing materials to the black surface. If joints between the finished wall and the fireplace surround are sealed, a 300° F minimum sealant material (General Electric RTV103 or equivalent) must be used. Refer to Figure 7.
