Caution
This appliance and its individual shut off valve must be disconnected from gas supply piping system
during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).
This appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual
shut off 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).
Do not use the fire feature if any part has been under water. Immediately call a qualified service techni-
cian to inspect the fire feature and to replace any part of the control system and any gas control which
has been under water.
Power supply to the fireplace must be shut off before connecting or disconnecting the CAT5e cable to
the touch screen/toggle switch wall receptacle. This also applies to the touch screen charging cable.

Locating the Unit
The Architectural Series Linear Appliances are power vent only, and because of this, they can be
located in a variety of places. Consideration must be taken for the location of the fresh air intake and
the power vent unit venting. A site fabricated platform capable of supporting the appliances weight
may be constructed to elevate the viewing area to the desired height, as well as accommodate the
fresh air intake - (if bottom vented), gas supply and electrical supply.

Upper Support for Light Framed Units
The Peninsula is built using either a light weight material or heavy weight material. The difference
between the two is determined by the weight of the facing material to be used. The lighter Peninsula
uses adjustable supports to support the upper section of the Peninsula so that its’ weight does not
distort the upper section of the Peninsula.
Materials included for this support include:
• Eight 6’ threaded rods - four right hand thread and four left hand thread (Figure 2).
• Four Turnbuckles (Figure 3).

Architectural Series
Removing Vertical Supports
Peninsulas built with a light frame ship with two vertical supports attached to the open end as
shown in Figure 5 so that the weight of the upper section of the replace does not distort the upper
section. These supports must remain in place until:
• The Peninsula is in its nal location.
• The Upper Support Frame is in its nal location.
• The adjustable turnbuckles and their threaded support rods have been set so that the upper
section of the Peninsula is no longer exerting weight on the vertical supports.
Once the weight of the upper section is fully supported by the adjustable support rods, the vertical
supports can be removed.
To remove:
Locate the bolts securing the vertical
supports to both the upper and lower
sections of the Peninsula (Figure 6
and Figure 7) .
Use a 9/16” socket wrench to remove.
Discard vertical supports once they
have been removed.

Framing and Finishing
2x4 framing lumber can be fastened to the
channel surrounding the top of the unit.
Figure 8: Stud securing points.
Before framing and nishing, there are two important points to keep in mind:
1. When securing wooden studs to the top of the unit, the screws can be secured through any part of
the upper fastening area surface (Figure 8).
2. Facing material can be secured directly to the front and sides of the unit except in the areas
indicated in this example in (Figure 9). Each model will have its own specic areas in which screws
must not be driven into.
Facing material may be screwed directly into the body of the
appliance with the exception of areas indicated.

Framing
Note: To reduce vent noise, it is recommended to insulate the chase above the replace with soundproof
insulation.
Framing in the unit begins with determining how high from the oor the unit will sit. A platform capable of
supporting the weight of the unit and, if bottom air intake style, housing the fresh air intake venting must be
built. Standard 2X4”s or 2X6”s can be used for building the frame at the bottom of the unit and 2X4”s can be
used for building the frame at the top of the unit (Figure 10).
On the top of the unit, a pony wall can be built to the ceiling if desired. This pony wall will also accommodate
the exhaust venting material. Both supporting structure and pony wall must be tied into wall framing.
The building of the supporting structure and the pony wall must be built to local building codes.
14
100000847 160819-52Architectural Series
Facing Material
Because the appliance requires no clearance to combustible material, drywall or other facing mate-
rial can be afxed directly to the surface of the unit. Using standard 2x4’s and 2x6’s in the framing
process allows for the edge of 1/2” drywall or other facing material to t into the channels which
make up the perimeter of the exterior glass sheets (Figure 11 and Figure 12).

Venting plenum
NOTE: Plenum must not be shared with other appliances.
Some installations - particularly in new renovations or with pre-existing constraints /
obstacles may require the construction of a plenum in order to accommodate multiple air
intakes.
The plenum must be made of furnace ducting (Minimum 26 gauge) or other material
impervious to moisture. The constructed plenum must have a minimum cross-section of 150
square inches and be sealed to the air-intake collars on the appliance. The plenum may be
transitioned to a single intake as long as the 150 square inch cross-section is maintained.
For a single air intake, the rule of a maximum of 150 feet plus 6 elbows still applies.
