WARNING: Never install in a
bedroom or bathroom. Any heat
-
ing product with a Btu/Hr rating
over 10,000 cannot be used in a
bedroom.
CAUTION: This fireplace cre-
ates warm air currents. These
currents move heat to wall sur-
faces next to fireplace. Installing
fireplace next to vinyl or cloth
wall coverings or operating
fireplace where impurities (such
as, but not limited to, tobacco
smoke, aromatic candles, clean
-
ing fluids, oil or kerosene lamps,
etc.) in the air exist, may discolor
walls or cause odors.
IMPORTANT: Vent-free fireplaces add moisture to
the air. Although this is beneficial, installing fireplace
in rooms without enough ventilation air may cause
mildew to form from too much moisture. See Air for
Combustion and Ventilation, page 6.

directly against wall or framing materials.
Note: When installing fireplace directly on carpet-
ing, tile or other combustible material, other than
wood flooring, the fireplace shall be installed on a
metal or wood panel extending the full width and
depth of the fireplace.
Use the dimensions shown for rough openings to
create the easiest installation (see Built-In Fire
-
place Installation, page 10).
