SAFETY LABEL This is a copy of the label that accompanies each PG36 Zero Clearance Room Sealed Gas Fireplace. We have printed a copy of the contents here for your review. The label is located on the front inside base of the unit, visible when the bottom louvre is open. DATA BADGE NOTE: Masport units are constantly being improved. Check the label on the unit and if there is a difference, the label on the unit is the correct one.
INSTALLATION IMPORTANT: SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS The PG36-NG or PG36-LPG Room Sealed Fireplace must be installed in accordance with AG 601 and NZS 5261 5261 and these instructions. Carefully read all the instructions in this manual first. Consult the "authority having jurisdiction" to determine the need for a permit prior to starting the installation. It is the responsibility of the installer to ensure this fireplace is installed in compliance with manufacturer's instructions and all applicable codes.
INSTALLATION LOCATING YOUR GAS STOVE 1) When selecting a location for your stove, ensure that the clearances outlined on this page are met. 2) Provide adequate clearances for servicing. 1) Ensure that structural members are not cut or weakened during installation. 3) The appliance must be installed on a flat, solid, continuous surface (e.g. wood, metal, concrete). This may be the floor, or raised up on a platform to enhance its visual impact.
Masport PG36-3 Gas Inbuilt Note: A non-combustible mantel may be installed at a lower height if the framing is made of metal studs covered with a non-combustible board. MANTELS Note: Ensure the paint that is used on the mantel and the facing is "heat resistant" or the paint may discolour. These drawings are to scale at 1:6 (one inch = 6 inches) Mantel can be installed anywhere in shaded area or higher using the above scale.
INSTALLATION FRAMING AND FINISHING 1) Determine the total thickness of facing material (e.g. drywall plus ceramic tiles) to allow the finished surface to be flush with the front of the unit. Total facing thickness can vary from 1/2" (13mm) to 1-1/4" (32mm) thick. 3) For exterior walls, insulate the enclosure to the same degree as the rest of the house, apply vapour barrier and drywall, as per local installation codes. (Do not insulate the fireplace itself.
INSTALLATION UNIT ASSEMBLY PRIOR TO INSTALLATION The Top Facing Support, the Side Nailing Strips and the 2 Top Standoffs must be correctly positioned and attached to the top before unit is slipped into position. Top Standoff Assembly The top standoffs are shipped in a flat position and must be folded into shape and attached. Screw Position Facing Material Depth A B C* 1/2" 7/8" 1-1/4" / 13mm / 22mm / 32mm * For "C" screw position the top facing support is reversed.
