Product Dimensions

Framing/Installation

NOTE: Two people are required for installation.

Prepare a wall with a framed opening, following the dimensions shown in Figure 3. The fireplace can either be installed partially recessed (2″x4″ frame) or flush-mounted (2″x6″ frame).

• CAUTION: Decorative finishing material (such as brick) should be limited to ½” (13 mm) overhang to ensure adequate flow of heated air out of the firebox area.
• CAUTION: This fireplace is NOT load-bearing. Ensure the opening for the fireplace is framed in such a way that the weight of the building materials will not create pressure on the top of the fireplace.
• NOTE: For 2″x4″ construction where the unit will be partially recessed, it is recommended to use an XLFTRIM kit (sold separately) to accommodate the protruding portion of the fireplace.

NOTE:
The wiring entry is located on the right side at the bottom of the firebox. Plan the framing to allow the routing of the power cable to this location.
