MOBILE HOME INSTALLATION

This appliance is certifi ed to be installed as an OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) installation in a manufactured home or mobile home and must be installed in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions and the Manufactured Home Construction and Safety Standard, Title 24 CFR, Part 3280, in the United States or the Mobile Home Standard, CAN/CSA Z240 MH Series, in Canada.

This Mobile/Manufactured Home Listed appliance comes factory equipped with a means to secure the unit. The fi replace is equipped with two 1/4" diameter holes located in the front left and right corners of the base. For mobile home installations, the fi replace must be fastened in place. Use #10 hex head screws, inserted through the holes in the base to secure. Always turn off the pilot and the fuel supply at the source, prior to moving the mobile home. After moving the mobile home and prior to lighting the fi replace, ensure that the logs are positioned correctly.

This appliance is certifi ed to be installed in an aftermarket permanently located, manufactured (mobile) home, where not prohibited by local codes.

This fi replace is only for use with the type of gas indicated on the rating plate. This fi replace is not convertible for use with other gases, unless a certifi ed kit is used.

*HORIZONTAL VENT SECTIONS: A mini- mum clearance of 2" all around the vent pipe on all horizontal runs to combustibles is required. Use fi restop spacer W010-1778 (supplied).

VERTICAL VENT SECTIONS: A minimum of 1" all around the vent pipe on all vertical runs to combustibles is required except for clear- ances in fi replace enclosures. Use fi restop spacer W500-0367 (not supplied).

Note: In order to avoid the possibility of exposed insulation or vapour barrier com- ing in contact with the fi replace body, it is recommended that the walls of the fi replace enclosure be “fi nished” (ie: drywall/sheetrock), as

you would fi nish any other outside wall of a home. This will ensure that clearance to combustibles is maintained within the cavity.

It is best to frame your fireplace after it is positioned and the vent system is installed. Use 2x4's and frame to local building codes. FIGURES 33.

It is not necessary to install a hearth extension with this fi replace system.

When roughing in the fi replace, raise the fi replace to accommodate for the thickness

of the finished fl oor materials, i.e. tile, carpeting, hard wood, which if not planned for will interfere with the opening of the lower access door and the installation of many decorative fl ashing accessories.

Objects placed in front of the fi replace should be kept a minimum of 48" away from the front face.

Combustible materials may be installed fl ush with the front of the fireplace but must not cover or protrude past any of the black face-areas of the fi replace. Non-combustible material (brick, stone or ceramic tile) may protrude in these areas.

The fi replace requires a minimum enclosure height of 45 1/2“. For temperature requirements, the enclosure space around and above the fi replace must be left unobstructed.
