Framing and Clearances
A. Appliance/Decorative Front Dimension Diagrams
Dimensions are actual appliance dimensions. Use for reference only. For framing dimensions and clearances refer to Section 4.
Minimum fi replace opening requirements for a standard 3/4
inch deep surround are shown in Figure 4.2. For smaller
openings, an optional 1-1/2 inch deep surround is available
and dimensions are shown in Figure 4.3.
WARNING! Risk of Fire or Burns! Provide adequate
clearance around air openings and for service access.
Due to high temperatures, the appliance should be located out of traffi c and away from furniture and draperies.
• The fi rebrick (refractory), glass doors, screen rails, screen
mesh and log grates can be removed from a factory
built fi rebox in order to gain minimum gas insert opening
requirements.
• Any smoke shelves, shields and baffl es may be removed
from the factory built fi rebox if attached with mechanical
fasteners.
SIDE VIEW

• The metal fl oor of the solid fuel fi rebox may be removed
to facilitate the installation of the insert.
• Cutting of any sheet metal parts of the fi replace in which
the gas fi replace insert is to be installed is prohibited,
except the fl oor as tested for and as noted above and in
Figure 4.1.
• A minimum 1/2 inch gap from the bottom of the
appliance to the metal fl oor of the solid fuel fi rebox is RECOMMENDED for optimal fan performance. See
side view in Figure 4.1

Note: Dimensions assume 1/4 inch clearance on all sides.
Note: If exhaust collar on insert and fi replace damper do not line up, add 4 inches (102 mm) to minimum
fi replace height for bends in vent pipe.
**Unit depth is measured to the back of the surround to give the depth needed for installation.
In addition to these dimensions, also reference Clearances and Mantel Projections (Section 4.B).

B. Mantel and Wall Projections
WARNING! Risk of Fire! Comply with all minimum clearances to combustibles as specifi ed. Framing or fi nishing
material closer than the minimums listed must be constructed entirely of noncombustible materials (i.e., steel studs,
concrete board, etc).
Clearance to combustible material under the insert is 1/4
inch (6 mm). Clearance from top of fi replace opening for
combustibles extending 12 inches max. is 12 inches.
• Use leveling legs to raise insert minimum 1/4 inch (6 mm)
above combustible material or outer wrap of factory built
fi rebox.
Combustible facings must not extend behind the insert
surround. For non-combustible material specifi cations
refer to Section 1.E.
