Locating The Fireplace
In planning the installation for the replace, it is necessary to determine where the unit is to be installed, location of vent
system and where gas supply piping may be plumbed. Various installations are possible, such as, into an existing wall, a
corner, a built-in wall or a wall projection (Figure 8). Due to high temperatures, do not locate this replace in areas of high
trafc or near furniture or draperies.
The minimum clearances from the fireplace to combustible surfaces must be adhered to and are shown in
Figure 2 & Figure 3.
EXAMPLES OF COMMON LOCATIONS

Note: The fireplace should be in place
and venting installed before framing
in or building an enclosure around the
unit.
The Town & Country replace must be
framed in as described below or totally
enclosed with non-combustible material,
such as facing brick.
Determine the total thickness of facing
material to be used. A thickness of 3/4"
will allow the nishing surface to be ush
with the front of the unit. If preferred,
additional masonry type non-combustible
material can be installed above and to
the sides up to 4 1/2 inches proud of the
appliance.
The finishing material must not interfere
with glass frame access or movement.
A Steel Stud Framing Kit is supplied with
the replace and must be used unless the
replace is totally enclosed with
non-combustible material. Assemble the
framing kit as per the instructions on
pages page 11 of this manual. Attach
Framing and Finishing
the steel frame to the replace once the
replace is in its nal position. Secure the
steel frame to the framing brackets on
each side of the unit. Ensure that the studs
are set back far enough to allow for thickness of nishing surface.
The sides, back and top of the replace
can be framed in up to the steel studs and
the replace standoffs using conventional
lumber. Consult local building codes for
specic requirements.
Due to high temperatures, non-combustible backer board, such as cement board
or its equivalent, must be used to sheet
in the front of the replace, extending 18
3/4" above and 5 " to the side of the framing edge bars (Figure 12). Standard sheet
rock (dry wall) may be used beyond this.
If the backer board is not to be nished
with other non-combustible material
such as tiles, it is recommended that the
instructions in (Figure 11) be followed
closely.
Chase Insulation: When installing this
replace against a non-insulated exterior
wall or chase, it is recommended that the
outer walls be insulated to same degree as
other exterior walls. Do not place replace
directly against the insulation. Cover the
insulation and plastic vapour barrier with
a solid surface, such as dry wall (sheet
rock). Consult local codes. Do not insulate
or use plastic vapour barrier within the
framing kit.
CAUTION: See Figure 11 on page 10
BEFORE PROCEEDING.
NOTE:
The chase must be properly
sealed at the ceiling level or
between floors in a multilevel
installation.
