(E
xception: This appliance may not be installed in a bathroom.)
* (After Market: Completion of sale, not for the purpose of resale from the manufacturer).
For After-Market Manufactured Home installation, check with state and local codes.
This appliance is only for use with the type of gas indicated on the rating plate. This appliance is not
convertible for use with other gases.
NOTE: See page 14 for “Producing Adequate Ventilation”.
CHOOSING THE LOCATION FOR YOUR FIREPLACE:
Figure 1 shows some of the many ways your fireplace may be installed. Consider the traffic pattern in
your room and the location of doors and windows. Moving air from ceiling fans, open doors, and hot air
grills may cause the flames to soot. If a disturbance is found that affects the flames, it must be
eliminated by turning off the ceiling fan, closing the door, or closing or moving the hot air register. A
corner location may be best where space is limited.
Your fireplace weighs no more than some of your fine furniture. If the fireplace is located near a load
bearing wall, additional supports to the foundation will not be necessary. HEAVY FACINGS, SUCH
AS BRICK, STONE, ETC., MAY REQUIRE ADDITIONAL FOUNDATION SUPPORT.
NOTE: If this appliance is installed directly on carpeting, tile or other combustible material, other
than wood flooring, the appliance shall be installed on a metal or wood panel extending the full
width and depth of the appliance.
GAS LINES
The gas supply line and electrical supply must
be installed before framing in the fireplace by
a licensed installer.
DRAFTS
Do not locate the fireplace in high traffic areas
or areas exposed to high drafts and winds.
Locate the fireplace away from furniture and
draperies.
