CONVENTIONAL FIREPLACE
INSTALLATION
Conventional installation of this fireplace involves
installing fireplace along with the corner, face or
cabinet mantel with hearth base accessories against
a wall in your home. Follow the instructions below
to install the fireplace in this manner.
Note: The instructions in this section show instal-
lation using the cabinet mantel and hearth base
accessories. The hearth base accessory shown is
optional for this installation. You can install fire
-
place and cabinet mantel directly on the floor.
1. Assemble cabinet mantel, hearth base and
trim accessories. Assembly instructions are
included with each accessory.
2. When installing blower, install a properly
grounded, 120 volt three-prong electrical out
-
let at fireplace location if an outlet is not there.
If possible, locate outlet so cabinet mantel will
cover it when installed (see Figure 9).
3. Install gas piping to fireplace location. This
installation includes an approved flexible gas
line (if allowed by local codes) after the equip
-
ment shutoff valve. The flexible gas line must
be the last item installed on the gas piping. See
Installing Gas Piping to Fireplace Location,
page 13.
4.
Place hearth base accessory against wall at instal-
lation location. Cut an access hole in hearth top
to run flexible gas line to fireplace (see Figure
9). Make sure to locate access hole so cabinet
mantel will cover it when installed.
Note: You
can secure base to floor using wood screws.
Countersink screw heads and putty over.
5. Route flexible gas line through access hole in
hearth base.
6.
Center cabinet mantel on hearth base (see Figure
10). Make sure mantel is flush against wall.
