Framing and Clearances
A. Selecting Fireplace Location
This outdoor replace will shed moderate amounts of water,
but is not waterproof. Water and condensing water vapor
may enter the chase under certain conditions.
The replace will not perform as an exterior wall. Moisture
penetration must be considered for construction that places
the replace against structure walls or on moisture sensitive
surfaces.
• Exterior Walls (see Figure 3.1)
Hearth & Home Technologies recommends that the
replace chase be constructed outside the structure’s
weather envelope. Where the platform meets the wall, use
a ashing detail similar to that required for attached decks.
Chase platforms, including hearths, should slope away
from the structure at 1/8 in. to 1/4 in. per foot. The replace
can be shimmed level. Build the outside enclosure out of
standard building materials, being careful to maintain the
minimum air clearances specied in these installation
instructions.
Fire Risk
Provide adequate clearances.
• Around air openings
• To combustibles
• For service access.
Locate replace away from trafc areas.

• Freestanding Installations (see Figure 3.2)
When installing this replace as a freestanding replace
on your porch, patio or in your yard, it must be enclosed
to prevent impact damage to the replace.
• The cooling air hoods MUST be used if installing in a
combustible enclosure.
• If unit is installed on cement and totally enclosed with non
combustilbe materials (i.e. metal studs, cement board,
etc.) the cooling air hoods do not need to be installed.
• When Installed on Surfaces Where Water May Collect
or Cause Damage:
Hearth & Home Technologies recommends that a drainage
pan be placed under the unit. This can be constructed
of metal, adhesive polymer membrane (such as ice
and water shield) or other suitable materials. A means
of drainage out of the pan such as tubes or weep holes
should be provided. A slope of 1/8 in. to 1/4 in. per foot
towards the drain port is suggested. The replace can
be shimmed level. Hearths should slope away from the
front of the replace and chase at 1/8 in. to 1/4 in. per
foot. Spark strips must be used on top of any combustible
hearth materials used for moisture management.
