Figure 2.4 Good Faith Wall Surface Temperatures Above Appliance
If installing a television (TV) above the appliance, see
Section 3 of the appliance Owner’s Manual.
NOTICE: Temperatures listed above are taken with a
temperature measuring probe as prescribed by the test
standard used for appliance certication. Temperatures
on walls or mantels taken with an infrared thermometer
may yield increased temperatures of up to 30 ºF or more
depending on the thermometer settings and material
characteristics being measured. Use appropriate nishing
materials that are able to withstand these conditions. For
additional nishing guidelines, see Section 8.
D. Inspect Appliance and Components
• Carefully remove the appliance and components from
the packaging.
• The vent system components, decorative fronts and
surrounds are shipped in separate packages.
• If packaged separately, the log set must be installed.
• Report to your dealer any parts damaged in shipment,
particularly the condition of the glass.
• Read all of the instructions before starting the installation. Follow these instructions carefully during the
installation to ensure maximum safety and benet.
WARNING! Risk of Fire or Explosion! Damaged parts

water. Call a qualied service technician to inspect the
appliance and to replace any part of the control system
and/or gas control which has been under water.
C. Tools and Supplies Needed
Before beginning the installation be sure that the following
tools and building supplies are available.
Tape measure Pliers
Hammer Phillips screwdriver
Voltmeter Electric drill and bits (1/4 in.)
Gloves Safety glasses
Level Reciprocating saw
Manometer Flat blade screwdriver
Stove cement / Aluminum foil tape
3/16 in. Allen wrench (Rear Leveling Legs)
Minimum replace opening requirements for a standard 3/4
inch deep surround are shown in Figure 3.7. For smaller
openings, a custom surround is available.
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 trafc and away from furniture and draperies.
For Installation into a Zero Clearance Wood burning replace:
• The brick (refractory), glass doors, screen rails, screen
mesh and log grates can be removed from a factory
built rebox in order to gain minimum gas insert opening
requirements.
• Any smoke shelves, shields and bafes may be removed
from the factory built rebox if attached with mechanical
fasteners.
• The metal oor of the solid fuel rebox may be removed
to facilitate the installation of the insert.
• Cutting of any sheet metal parts of the replace in which
the gas replace insert is to be installed is prohibited,
except the oor as tested for and as noted above.
• A minimum 1/4 inch gap from the bottom of the appliance
to the metal oor of the solid fuel rebox is REQUIRED. See side view inFigure 3.5.
• Manufactured gas inserts can be installed as a zero
clearance appliance. See Section 3C for clearance
detail.
Figure 3.5Solid Fuel Floor Clearance
• The appliance may not be placed directly on the base of
the outer wrap, a 1/4 inch airspace MUST be provided
between the insert and the oor of the outer wrap. Use
the leveling legs to raise the insert a minimum of 1/4 inch.
The original replace may never be returned to solid
fuel in this condition. The sidewalls and top structure
of the rebox may not be altered with the exception of
removable bafes and dampers.
1/2 in.
Figure 3.6 Minimum Required 1/2 in. Gap
NOTICE: 1/2 inch gap must be maintained or components
will overheat.
Note: Dimensions assume 1/4 inch clearance on all sides.
Note: If exhaust collar on insert and replace damper do not line up, add 4 inches (102 mm) to minimum 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 Section 3.D and 3.E..
Figure 3.7 Firebox Opening - Standard Surround - 3/4 in.
Custom Surrounds
Custom surrounds are available. See your dealer for information. Standard surrounds are 3/4 inches deep. Custom
surrounds are available up to 3 inches deep. A 3 inch deep surround would reduce the unit opening depth (E*) by 2-1/4
inches (3 in. - 3/4 in. = 2-1/4 in).
On Site Custom Surrounds
On site custom surrounds are available. See your dealer for information. On site custom surrounds are ush and have
no depth. A ush surround would increase the unit opening depth (E*) by 3/4 inch.
• Facing and/or nishing materials must not interfere with
air ow through decorative fronts.
• Facing and/or nishing materials must never overhang
into the glass opening.
• Observe all clearances when applying combustible
materials.
• Maximum depth of wall extension is 12 inches. This
may be limited by the ex pipe’s ability to connect to the
starting collar.
• Covering combustible materials with non-combustible
materials does not qualify material as non-combustible.
WARNING! Risk of Fire! DO NOT apply combustible
materials beyond the minimum clearances. Comply with
all minimum clearances to combustibles as specied in
this manual. Overlapping materials could ignite and will
interfere with proper operation of decorative fronts.

Painting
If desired nishing includes a painted wall, a high-quality
100% acrylic latex paint with a high-quality latex primer
base coat are recommended around the appliance to limit
discoloration. Oil-based or standard acrylic paints may
be more prone to discoloration due to heat exposure.
Drywall Joint-Crack Prevention and Repair
Drywall joints around the replace will be affected by exposure to elevated temperatures, along with other environmental, structural factors due to new construction, and
methods used to install and nish the drywall. If a crack
does emerge adjacent to the replace, it can be permanently repaired by lling it with a paintable latex caulk,
followed by repainting.
Some movement of the screws used to secure the non-
combustible board to the appliance/surround framing is
expected. If a blemish begins to show over a screw head,
sand the surface to remove the blemish and repaint.
NOTE: Concealed sections of 3 in. ex pipe must
be contained inside existing masonary replace
ue vent or installed into an existing wood burn-
ing vent system.
Figure 3.11 Transition Sealing Detail for Wall Extensions (Side View)
Wall Extension
Wall extension must be sealed to existing masonry wall.
See Figure 3.11. Framing studs may not sit ush against
existing masonry wall. In order to keep heat from escaping behind the wall this transition must be sealed.
• Seal with a high temperature silicone 300 °F.
and / or
• Packing insulation into voids between the masonry wall
and steel studs is acceptable.
Note: Combustible materials may be used to seal wall
extension to existing masonry wall as long as it is outside the non-combustible zone.
