CONTINUED FRAMING AND INSTALLATION
1. Chimney height is at least 12' to 15' minimum.
2. The chimney must extend a minimum of 3' above the highest point where it penetrates the roof.
3. The chimney must extend a minimum of 2' higher than any portion of the building within 10'
of the chimney.
g. Install the chimney cap and storm collar.
7. The 51ZC cabinet is now ready for framing as follows:
a. Frame the 51ZC using 2" x 4" studs or local building code framing. Some minor framing restrict
tions are required.
1. Adjacent side walls must be at least 10" from the outer edge of the 51ZC trim panel.
2. The overall opening dimensions must be at least 37 1/2" wide and 34 3/4" high.
NOTE: Maintain 1 1/2" clearance at the side walls and rear of the cabinet and combustible material.
b. 2" x 4" framing above the unit must be turned flat. This allows proper clearance from framing
to chimney (2” minimum). (See Page 5 Figure 4, and Page 10 Figure 9)
8. Next construct the hearth extension out of non-combustible inorganic building materials as follows:
a. The hearth extension must extend 16" from the stove door opening.
b. The hearth extension width must be at least 37 1/2".
c. The hearth extension must be made of brick 2” thick, or a listed “Hearth Extension” or “Floor
Protector” with R- value of: R=0.6 , or a hearth extension made of non-combustible inorganic
material with a K * factor of K=2.5 BTU ( (HR)(ft
2
)(F/in.) (See Page 6)
9. The next step is the electrical installation. NOTE: An electrician must wire the 51ZC into the home
wiring system using No. 15 AWG (with ground wiring) as minimum or in accordance with local wir
ing codes.
CAUTION: Stove is plugged into cabinet receptacle.
a. Remove brass trim.
b. Remove top panel and right side panel.
c. Now an electrician must do the wiring.
10. Finish the wall around the 51ZC using brick, rock, sheetrock, paneling, or any type of finishing ma-
terial.
CAUTION: Do not block any openings designed into the unit.
11. Install a mantel above the unit if desired. NOTE that a combustible mantel must be positioned at
least 30 1/2" above the top of the stove.
