• Push your Country Flame insert all the way back into the fireplace where it will be when fully installed.
Double-check the location by measuring from both sides of the front of the insert to the edge of the
hearth. These measurements must be the same in order to properly align the unit. The insert flue
opening must be behind the lintel.
• After you have properly aligned the insert in the fireplace, you are ready to mark the trim panels for
mounting. Pressing both right and left trim panels directly against the face of the fireplace. The trim
panels are now in place as they will be when mounting is complete. While holding the trim panel in
place, mark where the front edge of the panel fits up against the unit with a pencil. Do this to each side
panel leaving the top trim panel for last because it will mount directly behind the 2 side panels.
• Pull the unit approximately 18”-20” back from the fireplace for mounting the trim panels. In this step
you will align the front edge of the trim with the mark you had just made, and then mark the slots with a
pencil. By marking the exact center of the slot you will have a slight adjustment up or down, depending
upon the evenness of your fireplace.
• Place trim side panels along the line previously marked and insert your self-tapping screws and washers
with a 3/8” adaptor and drill or drill 7/32” diameter hole. The tightening of the screws secures the trim
panels firmly in place. Now position the trim top panel up tight against the trim side panel and insert the
self-tapping screws and washer to secure the trim top panel the unit.
• Remove the backing from the roll of fiberglass insulation included in your trim panel box. Stick the
insulation to the backside of the trim panels around the perimeter. This insulation will seal up against the
face of the fireplace brick. For stone or irregular surfaces you may have to obtain additional fiberglass
to fill the voids from you local building supply store. Very irregular surfaces with large voids may
require masonry fill.

place during installation.
