INSTALLATION

For Recessed Installation
If fireplace is to be recessed into a wall (see
Built-In Fireplace Installation, pages 17
and 18), we recommend mounting wall
switch to left side of fireplace. The wall
switch should be mounted approximately
12" from left edge of fireplace, and less than
60" from the floor.
IMPORTANT:
Do not
locate wall switch directly in front of wall
stud - there must be room behind wall board
for wires from switch. If you choose to
locate wall switch to right side of fireplace,
the length of the cord restricts you to less
than 6" from right edge of fireplace and less
than 48" from floor.
For Mantel Installation
If fireplace is to be installed into a mantel,
(see Conventional Fireplace Installation,
pages 16 and 17) the wall switch may be
mounted on either side of the mantel, facing
to the side. Do not locate wall switch any-
where on the front face of the mantel.
CAUTION: The wall switch
must never be mounted directly
above the fireplace where heat
may damage it. If you relocate
wall switch from lower fireplace
cavity, it must be mounted either
on side wall of mantel or on wall
to side of fireplace.
CAUTION: Do not apply ex-
cessive pull on cord.

cessed Fireplace
7. Create three openings on wall accord-
ing to Template 1, page 35. This is best
done by making a pattern to work with
on your wall. Carefully cut page 35/36
from manual and tape paper template
vertically onto wall at preferred location.
Pierce the paper at the centers of the 2
holes with a nail or sharp pencil, leav-
ing a mark on the wall. Do the same at
centers of the four circles near the cor-
ners of the rectangle.
8. Remove paper template from wall.
9. Drill 3/8" holes at each mark.
10. Using a straight edge and pencil, con-
nect the outer edges of the 4 holes for
the rectangle (see Figure 10). This will
give you cutting lines for the rectangle
you will cut in the wall.
11. Using a keyhole saw, hack saw blade,
drill, file, or other suitable tool, carefully
cut out the rectangular opening.
Note:
The corners of the rectangle may be
round.
IMPORTANT:
Do not exceed the
size of the rectangle on template.
12. From inside the recessed opening for
the fireplace, carefully pass switch/
plate assembly through the rectangu-
lar opening to the outside of the wall.
13. Using wall anchors supplied in hard-
ware package, fold wall anchor as
shown in Figure11.
14. Insert wall anchor, wings first, into
hole. Tap anchor flush to wall.
15. For thin walls (1/2" or less), insert red
key into wall anchor. Push red key to
“pop” open anchor wings. See Figure
14.
IMPORTANT:
Do not hammer
key! For thick walls (over 1/2" thick),
do not pop open wings.

CAUTION: Be careful of gas
lines and wiring when moving
floor.
1. Determine the new location for the wall
switch. The wires attached to switch are
six feet long.
2. Remove 2 screws securing plastic wall
plate to bracket in fireplace lower cav-
ity. Save screws.
3. Remove wire tie holding coiled wire
attached to wall switch (see Figure 8).
4. Remove wall switch/plate assembly
from bracket.

Installation
5. Carefully pass wall plate and cord
through large elongated hole in rear of
either left or right floor support bracket,
depending on desired location of
switch. Pass wall plate and cord
through 1.5" diameter hole in side of
fireplace outer casing (see Figure 9).
6. Pull wall plate and cord from fireplace
making sure wall switch/plate assem-
bly will reach desired mounting loca-
tion without straining cord assembly.
