WARNING
Select a location that is not prone to moisture and is located at least 36″ (91.4cm) away from combustible materials such as curtains, drapes, furniture, bedding, paper, etc.

Note

  • It is recommended to complete finishing of the wall before fully securing the appliance.
  • Once the rough framing and the finishing materials have been prepared and the power has been routed to the right side of the recess, the appliance may be installed.
  • The electrical connection must be made prior to placing the appliance into position (see “electrical information” section).
  • Have two people lift the appliance into position.
  • In order to avoid the possibility to exposed insulation or vapour barrier coming in contact with the appliance body, it is recommended that the walls of the appliance enclosure be “finished” (i.e. drywall / sheet rock, etc.) as you would finish any other outside wall of a home. This will ensure that clearance to combustibles is maintained within the enclosure.
