Getting Started
The Carolina Series outdoor gas fi replace is designed for
outdoor use and may be installed as a standalone unit or
built into an outside wall.
It may be installed in screened porches and lanais that meet
these minimum requirements:
• Minimum porch area - 96 square feet
• Minimum ceiling height - 82 in.
• Minimum distance from top of appliance opening to ceiling
- 49.5 in.
A minimum of one wall can be screened but must be open to
outside ventilation. Minimum requirements are:
• Minimum screen area - 64 square feet
• Minimum screen top height - 80 in.
If this fi replace is to be installed within a wall, you must:
• Provide access to the gas controls.
• Slope outdoor fl oor (and hearth) away from fi replace.
• Flash the perimeter of the fi replace, corners and the
fireplace face in a manner consistent with regional
practices as required to prevent water penetration around
the fi replace or manage water that may penetrate the
fireplace. See Section 3.D. and Figure 3.1 for more
information regarding wall and enclosure construction.
The fi replace may be installed on a wood or noncombus-
tible deck.
Refer to Sections 3.D. and 3.E. for clearances.
