These options may be incorporated with one another. If the optional blowers are to be installed, make provision dur- ing framing to route a 110 volt power line to the fireplace. Detailed installation instructions are included with each venting kit.

LOCATION AND CLEARANCES

The fireplace must be installed against finished walls. Do not install against a vapour barrier or exposed insu- lation.

While the fireplace can be installed directly on the floor, a non-combustible hearth extension is required in front of the fireplace, that must not be built higher than the bottom of the fireplace to avoid air flow blockage. It may therefore be advisable to build the fireplace on a raised platform. The minimum distance between the edge of the fireplace and any adjacent wall, at right angles to it, is 21 inches. A wall projecting at 45° from the outer edge of the fireplace is allowed; projections into this area are permitted. Do not install into any area having a height less than 6 feet (ceil- ing to fireplace bottom, excluding hearth height). See Section on Framing.The location of windows, doors and the traffic flow in the room where the stove is to be located should be considered. If possible, you should choose a location where the chimney will pass through the house without cutting a floor or roof joist.

MAINTAIN THESE MINIMUM CLEARANCES TO COMBUSTIBLES:

0" - FIREPLACE STAND-OFFS (TOP, REAR, & SIDES) 2" - CHIMNEY

1" - HOT AIR GRAVITY DUCTWORK

SEE 'FRAMING' SECTION:

top of unit to ceiling: 32½" - TOP-VENTED ENCLOSURE 44½" - NON-VENTED ENCLOSURE

Clearance from combustibles to furnace hot air duct work as specified by the furnace manufacturer is satis- factory. No additional clearances are required.

Do not pack air space, created between the stand-offs and combustibles, with insulation or any other mate- rial.

Objects placed in front of the fireplace must be kept a minimum of 48" away from the front face of the unit.

INSTALL ATION / FRAMING

FRAMING

The fireplace should be framed using 2x4 lumber as shown in Figure 5. The fireplace should be secured to the floor. Use the pallet packing brackets to accomplish this. If ducting is to be installed, the minimum enclosure ceiling height is 7 feet. Without ducting, the ceiling height may be brought down to a minimum of 6 feet. However a fireplace enclosure with a height less than 7 feet must be provided with sufficient air circulation to avoid a fire hazard. Install ventilation grilles (minimum openings of 40 sq. inches) at both floor and ceiling levels of the enclosure. These grilles must not restrict the flow of heat by more than 25%.
