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 fire
-
place in rooms without enough ventilation air may
cause mildew to form from too much moisture. See
Air for Combustion and Ventilation, page 6.
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.
CAUTION: If you install the
fireplace in a home garage
• fireplace pilot and burner must
be at least 18 inches above
floor.
• locate fireplace where moving
vehicle will not hit it.
For convenience and efficiency, install fireplace
where there is easy access for operation, inspec
-
tion and service.

BUILT-IN FIREPLACE INSTALLATION
Built-in installation of this fireplace involves
installing fireplace into a framed-in enclosure.
This makes the front of fireplace flush with wall.
An optional brass trim kit accessory is available
(see Accessories, page 30). Brass trim will extend
past sides of fireplace approximately 1/2 inch. This
will cover the rough edges of the wall opening. If
installing a built-in mantel above the fireplace, you
must follow the clearances shown in Figure 12,
page 12. Follow the instructions below to install
the fireplace in this manner. Note: Your fireplace is
designed to be used in zero clearance installations.
Wall or framing material can be placed directly
against any exterior surface on the rear, sides or
top of your fireplace.
