Window Frame Removal
Fig. #5a
LATCH HANDLE
Warning: Turn off the replace, and allow ample time for the unit to cool before
proceeding.
Caution: The ceramic glass is very fragile, and should be handled with care.
The window frame is held in place by two spring-loaded latches that are operated by a
one-piece latch handle.
1. Remove the TC Finishing Touch Trim Kit from the window frame. (If installed)
2. Using a screwdriver or other similar object, push against the notch in the top of the
latch and grab the bottom of the latch handle as it protrudes. Lift handle until latch hook
disengages. Repeat for other side while holding glass so it does not tip out. Fig #4, 5 &
5a.
3. Tilt the top of the window frame out to clear the top edge of the unit. Grasp the sides of
the frame and lift up and out to disengage from its bottom track.
4. Place the window frame in a safe place to avoid damage.
5. Re-assemble in reverse order. Latch handle should snap into place and be ush with
window frame when engaged correctly.
TIP:
To ensure glass is properly latched, grasp the top left and
right sides of the glass frame, under moderate pressure it
should pull forward and return to original position evenly on
both sides.

Locating The Fireplace
HANDLE
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
types of installations are possible, such as, a peninsula wall, an island, and between two
interior walls (Fig. #7). Due to high temperatures, do not locate this replace in areas of high
traffic or near furniture or draperies.
The minimum clearances from the replace to combustible surfaces must be adhered
to and are shown in Fig. #2 and Fig. #3.

Framing and Finishing
Note: The replace should be in place
and venting installed before framing in
or building an enclosure around the unit.
When the appliance is installed directly on
carpeting, tile or other combustible material,
other than wood ooring, the appliance shall
be installed on a metal or wood panel extending the full width and depth of the appliance.
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 6
inches forward of the appliance.
*The nishing material must not interfere
with glass frame access.*
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
10 – 12 of this manual. Attach 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 and top of the replace can
be framed in up to the steel studs using
conventional lumber. Consult local building
codes for speci c 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. (Fig. #9) Standard sheetrock
(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 top sections of the
framing kit be covered with a single sheet
of calcium silicate board or its equivalent.
Taped and mudded joints may crack due to
the elevated temperatures.
Chase Insulation: When installing this
replace against a non-insulated exterior
wall or chase, it is recommended that the
outer walls be insulated to the 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 (sheetrock).
Consult local codes. Do not insulate or use
plastic vapour barrier within the framing kit.
CAUTION: SEE FIGURE #9a BEFORE
PROCEEDING.

Servicing of the appliance can be performed from inside the unit and through the access
panel located in the rebox bottom.
Caution: The gas line should be installed by a quali ed service person in accordance with
all building codes. This section is intended as a guide for quali ed technicians installing this
appliance. Consult local and/or national building codes before proceeding.
• Gas supply line access holes are located beneath the replace on the ue side of the
Control Box. Gas valve inlet accepts a 3/8" N.P.T. tting. Correct gas line diameter must
be used to assure proper operation and pressure.
• The replace has an input rate of 61,000 BTU/HR on both Natural Gas and
Propane.
• A drip leg must be installed in the gas supply line going to the gas control
valve to minimize the possibility of any loose scale or dirt within the gas
supply line from entering the control valve.
• It is essential that a union or anged connection be installed just upstream of the
valve and inside the control compartment to allow for repair or replacement of the
gas valve.
Check local codes for additional requirements.
1. Connect the gas supply to the valve (Fig. #24a).

2. Turn on the gas supply and check that all connections are tight and leak free.
WARNING: The access panel including gasket must be
reinstalled after conversion/installation or servicing
has been completed. Failure to do so will cause
overheating and premature failure of the control system.
Gas Pressure Check
Note: To test the gas pressure, turn off the gas supply before removing the plug from
the supply pressure test port or manifold pressure test port.
Verify gas pressures with the replace lit and on the highest setting.
Please refer to page 51 for gas pressure testing procedure.
