Locating your Appliance
(above or below grade)
Installing with Top Vent Option
Island installation with a top vent is possible as long as the horizontal portion of the vent system does not exceed 10 feet (305cm). When you install
your fireplace as in position ‘B’, ‘D’ or ‘E’, a minimum of 6 inches
(153mm) clearance must be maintained from the perpendicular wall and
the front of the appliance.
(above grade)
Installing with Back Vent Option
A - Flat on a wall D - As a room divider
B - Across the corner E - Flat on wall corner
C - As an island F - Exterior wall
Framing for your Gas Fireplace
Framing Specifications
1. Choose fireplace location and frame in accordance with the fireplace dimensions specified on page one of this manual. When using
a wide 3.5 in. surround the fireplace must be 1/2” (13mm) ahead of
the wall. Also allowances must be made for drywall tile or any other
facing used around the unit. When using Slim Line Brass surround
or no surround fireplace face maybe built out from the framing
specification using non combustible materials such as brick or
stone, giving a reset appearance.
2. Place fireplace into position and secure to floor with 1 1/2” screws
or nails. Nailing tab located left and right lower side of fireplace.
3. Cold climate installation recommendation: when installing this fireplace against non-insulated exterior wall or chase, it is recommended that the outer walls be insulated to conform to applicable insulation codes. Drywall should be installed around the unit to prevent
insulation from contacting the body.
4. Drywall can extend flush with the appliance on the bottom and sides
of the fireplace. A non-combustible material must be used to extend
flush with the top of the fireplace and must have a vertical length
equivalent to the height of the standoffs.
5. If you are installing the top vent unit with a 90˚ bend, the minimum
clearance to combustibles directly above the 90˚ bend is 4”
(102mm).
6. Non-combustible materials such as brick and tile can be extended
across the face of the fireplace. If wide 3.5” brass trim kit is going
to be installed, brick and tile will have to be installed flush with the
front of this appliance. If slim line brass trim kit is used, brick or
tile may extend past the front of unit.
Hearth
A hearth is not mandatory but is recommended for aesthetic purposes.
We recommend a non-combustible hearth projecting out 12” (305mm)
or more in front of the fireplace.
Clearance to Combustibles
Back (from Standoffs) 0 inches/0 mm
Side (from standoffs) 0 inches/0 mm
Floor 0 inches/0 mm
Top (from standoffs) 0 inches/0 mm
Top (from front of unit) 2.5 inches/64 mm
Top of 90 Bend 4 inches/102 mm
Top of Horizontal Pipe 2.5 inches/64 mm
Note: See Mantel Chart

Gas Line Installation
This gas appliance should be installed by a qualified installer in accordance with
local building codes and with current CAN/CGA - B149.1 or .2 installation codes for
Gas Burning appliances and equipment in Canada and the National Fuel Gas Code
ANSI Z223 in the U.S.A.
1. The gas pipeline can be brought in through either the right or the left side of the
appliance. A knockout is provided at either location to allow for the gas pipe
installation and testing of any gas connection.
2. The gas control inlet is 1/2” NPT. Typical installation layout for rigid pipe is
shown at right.
3. When using copper or flex connector, use only approved fittings. Always provide a union so that gas line can be easily disconnected for burner or fan servicing. See gas specification for pressure details and ratings.
4. When a vertical section of gas pipe is required for the installation, a condensation trap is needed. See CAN/CGA-B149.1 or .2 for code details.
5. For natural gas, a minimum of 3/8” iron pipe with gas minimum pressure of 4.5
w.c. must be used for supply from the gas meter. Consult with the local gas utility if any questions arise concerning pipe sizes.
6. A 1/8” NPT plugged tappings are accessible for test gauge connection both on
the inlet and outlet of the gas valve.
7. Turn the gas supply ON and check for leaks. DO NOT USE OPEN FLAME
FOR THIS PURPOSE. Use an approved leak testing solution.
8. The appliance and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas
supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures
in excess of 1/2 PSIG (3.5 KPa).
9. The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its
individual shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 PSIG (3.5 KPa).
Note: The gas line connection may be made of 1/2” rigid pipe, 1/2” copper pipe
or an approved flex connector. Since some municipalities have additional local
codes, it is always best to consult your local authorities and the current
CAN/CGA - B149.1 or .2 installation code in Canada or the National Fuel Gas
code ANSI Z223.1 in the U.S.A.

Mantles
Depending on the width of the fireplace mantle, it may be installed
higher of lower from the top of the fireplace opening. See drawing and
chart below for proper installation height of your combustible mantelpiece. Non-combustible mantles may be installed at any height above
the fireplace opening.
When installing the top vented unit in the United States, a grill extension must be used. The grill extension should extend 1” (25mm) from
the front face.
Note: When using paint or lacquer to finish the mantle, such paint
or lacquer must be heat resistant (250˚F) to prevent discoloration.
Warning: Combustible objects must not be placed on a non-com-
bustible mantle unless the non-combustible mantle meets the minimum height and width requirements for a combustible mantle.
Important: Always check for gas leaks with a soap and water solution. Do not use
open flame for leak testing.
