Because of the extreme heat this fireplace emits, the mantel clearances are critical.

Combustible mantel clearances from top of unit are shown in Diagram 1.

Note: A non-combustible mantel may be installed at a lower height if the framing is made of metal studs covered with a non-combustible board.

INSTALLATION

FRAMING AND FINISHING

1)Determine the total thickness of facing material (e.g. drywall plus ceramic tiles) to allow the finished surface to be flush with the front of the unit. Total facing thickness can vary from 1/2" (13mm) to 1-1/4" (32mm) thick.

Install Side Nailing Strips, Top Facing Support, and Top Standoffs before unit is slipped into position. See "Unit Assembly Prior to Installation" section for assembly details.

2)Frame in the enclosure for the unit with framing material. The framed opening is 37-1/4" high x 36-1/4" wide x 17-3/8" deep (946mm high x 921mm wide x 441mm deep).

NOTE: See next page for important Barcelona™ Series framing note.

3)For exterior walls, insulate the enclosure to the same degree as the rest of the house, apply vapour barrier and drywall, as per local installation codes. (Do not insulate the fireplace itself.)

4)The top of the unit must not be closer than 32" (813mm) to the ceiling.

Note: 40-1/2" (1029mm) is the minimum height for both flex termination or Simpson Dura-Vent venting.

Note: Theunitdoesnothavetobecompletely enclosedinachase.The clearanceon top of the unit is 0" to the standoffs so combustible building materials can belaiddirectlyontopofthestandoffs. You must maintain clearance from the vent to combustible materials for flex, see Vent Clearances.

5)Use steel studs for framing where the

1-1/2" (38mm) clearance from the vent to combustible material cannot be maintained, e.g. front top header.

TRIPOLI ARCH DOOR FRAMING NOTE

When installing the optional Tripoli Arch Door, a non-combustible material 12" (305mm) above the unit and 6" (153mm) on each side must be used. See diagram 2. For complete framing dimensions - see instructions in this manual.

The Tripoli Arch Door also requires steel stud framing above and on each side of the unit, see diagram 2.

UNIT ASSEMBLY

PRIOR TO

INSTALLATION

The Top Facing Support, the Side Nailing Strips and the 2 Top Standoffs must be correctly positioned and attached to the top before unit is slipped into position.

Top Standoff Assembly

The top standoffs are shipped in a flat position and must be folded into shape and attached.

1)Remove the standoffs from the fireplace top.

2)Take each standoff and bend into the correct shape. Bend up at the bend lines until the screw holes in the standoff and the prepunched screw holes on the fireplace top line up.

3)Attach the standoff securely to the top with 2 screws per standoff (on opposite corners).

Top Facing Support &

Side Nailing Strips

Determine the total thickness of facing material

(e.g. drywall plus ceramic tiles) to allow the

finished surface to be flush with the front of the unit. Total facing thickness can vary from 1/2"

(13mm) to 1-1/4" (32mm) thick.

The Top Facing Support can be mounted in 3 different positions depending on the thickness of the facing material.

Depth

A1/2" / 13mm

C*

1-1/4" / 32mm

* For "C" screw position the top facing support is reversed.

1)Mount Top Facing Support using the 3 supplied screws into the three pre-punched screw holes on the top front of the unit. Use hole positions A, B, or C depending on your facing depth.

INSTALLATION

"C" Screw Position:

For a facing material depth of 1-1/4" (32mm), the top facing support must be reversed.

2) Fold out the two nailing strips on each side.

VENTING

INTRODUCTION

The P36D-1 uses the "balanced flue" technology Co-Axial system. The inner liner ventsproducts ofcombustionto the outside while the outer liner draws outside combustion air into the combustion chamber thereby eliminating the need to use heated room air for combustion and losing warm room air up the chimney.

Note: These flue pipes must not be connected to any other appliance.

The gas appliance and vent system must be vented directly to the outside of the building, and never be attached to a chimney serving a separate solid fuel or gas burning appliance. Each direct vent gas appliance must use it's own separate vent system. Common vent systems are prohibited.
