Note: When constructing the framed opening, please ensure there is access to install the gas lines when the unit is installed. See diagram 3 for details.

2)For exterior walls, insulate the enclosure to the same degree as the rest of the house, apply vapour barrier and drywall, as per local instal- lation codes. (Do not insulate the fireplace itself.)

3)The unit does not have to be completely enclosed in a chase. The clearance on top of the unit from the top standoffs is 0" so combusti- ble building materials can be laid directly on top of the standoffs. You must maintain clearances from the vent to combustible materials: See "Clearances" section. Combustible materials can be laid against the side and back standoffs and the stove base.

Note: When installing this fireplace there are two warnings on the front face of the unit. The areas indicated here are painted black and indicate that no nails, screws, or other punctures can be made at these points as there are sensitive electronic components directly behind these markings.
