design preference.• Hearth & Home Technologies reserves the right to alter

its products.

NOTICE: In addition to these framing dimensions, also reference the following section:

• Clearances (Section 3).

NOTICE: A minimum 1/2 in. air clearance at the back and a minimum 1 in. air clearance to the sides of the fireplace assembly must be maintained.Chimney sections at any level require a 2 in. mini-mum air space clearance between the framing and chimney sections.

B. Design and Installation Considerations

NOTICE: Check building codes prior to installation.

• Installation MUST comply with local, regional, state and national codes and regulations.

• Consult insurancecarrier, localbuildinginspector,fireofficialsorauthoritieshavingjurisdictionoverrestrictions,installation inspection and permits.

1. Selecting Fireplace LocationsThis fireplace may be used as a room divider, installedalong a wall, across a corner or used in an exterior chase. See Figure 2.2.

You must comply with all minimum air space clearances to combustibles as specified in Figure 3.2. DO NOT pack required air spaces with insulation or other materials. Framing or finishing material used on the front of, or in front of, the fireplace closer than the minimums listed must be constructed entirely of non-combustible materials (i.e., steel studs, concrete board, etc.). Failure to comply may cause fire.

• The chase is constructed using framing materials much thesameasthewallsinyourhome.Avarietyofsidingmaterialsmaybeused includingbrick, stone, veneerbrick,orstandardsidingmaterials.

• In constructing the chase, several factorsmust beconsidered:- Maintain a 2 in. (51mm) air space around the

Three examples of chase applications are shown in Fig-ure3.5.

WARNING! You must install false ceilings and ceil-ing firestops at each floor of the chase or every 10 ft (3.05 m) to control spread of fire.

WARNING! Risk of Fire! DO NOT seal area between fire stop opening and chimney pipe except where they enter the attic or leave the warm air envelope of the home (use 600° F sealant).

WARNING! Risk of Fire! You must maintain a minimum 2 in. (51 mm) air space clearance to insulation and other materials surrounding the chimney system.• Insulation and other materials must be firmly secured to

prevent accidental contact with chimney system.• The chase must be properly blocked to prevent blown

insulation or other combustibles from entering and making contact with fireplace or chimney.

• Failure to prevent contact between insulation or other materials and chimney system may cause overheating and fire.


D. Frame the Fireplace

NOTICE: Wiring for fans must be done before framed enclosure is completed. If using a Heat Zone Kit, it also must be installed before enclosure is complete.

WARNING! Risk of Fire! You must comply with all minimum air space clearances to combustibles. DO NOT pack required air spaces with insulation or other materi-als.

WARNING! Risk of Fire! Comply with all minimum clear-ances specified.• A minimum 1/2 in. (13 mm) air clearance must be

maintained at the back and 1 in. (25 mm) to the sides of the fireplace assembly.

• Chimney sections at any level require a 2 in. (51 mm) minimum air space clearance between the framing and chimney section.

Figure3.3showsatypicalframing(using2x4lumber)ofthefireplace,assumingcombustiblematerialsareused.All required clearances to combustibles around the fire-placemust be adhered to. See Figure 3.2.Any framingacrossthetopofthefireplacemustbeabovethelevelofthetopstandoffs.(Norecessabovestandoffs.)

The finished cavity depth must be no less than 24 in.(610mm)fromthefinishedbackwalltotheoutsideoffrontwall framing. Framing must extend straight up all the way to the ceiling.

CAUTION! Risk of Cuts/Abrasions. Wear protective gloves and safety glasses during installation. Sheet metal edges are sharp.

WARNING! Risk of Fire! Prevent contact with sagging, loose insulation. • DO NOT install against vapor barriers or exposed

insulation.• Secure insulation and vapor barriers.• Provide minimum air space clearances at the sides and

back of the fireplace assembly as outlined in Section 3.

WARNING! Risk of Fire! Protective metal hearth strips MUST be installed on combustible surfaces. DO NOT cover metal strips with combustible materials. Sparks or embers may ignite flooring.

WARNING! Risk of fire! High temperatures, sparks, embers or other burning material falling from the fireplace may ignite flooring or concealed combustible surfaces.• Protective metal hearth strips MUST be installed.• Hearth extensions MUST be installed exactly as

specified.

WARNING! Risk of Fire!Follow these instructions exactly.Facing materials must be installed properly to prevent fire.No materials may be substituted without authorization by Hearth & Home Technologies.

G. Facing Material

TOOLS NEEDED: Powered drill with #2 Phillips head bit;caulking gun.Onlynon-combustiblematerials(suppliedwithfireplace)maybeusedtocoverthemetalfireplacefront.

NOTE: All boards are pre-drilled for your convenience. Boards MUST be attached in the following order: bottom, top, and then the two sides, red-painted side out. The top and bottom board should each have a hang tag attached. Leave them attached for referral for the finishing operation.

• Attach the bottom board to the bottom of the outerfireplacecanwithenclosedscrews,ensuringtheboardis centered. DO NOT remove hang tags.

• Centerandattachthetopboardtotheoutercanandframingmembers. DO NOT remove hang tags.

• Using the SuperCalstick, run a light bead (1/8 in.minimum)between themetalsurfaceof thefireplaceandthebuttedgesofthetopboard.See Figure 3.9.

• Ensuringthetopofthesidepiecesandthetopboardalign, attach the side pieces to the outer can and framing members.

NOTICE: 1/8 in. of the facing material may be visible after finishing materials are applied. This 1/8 in. must be painted or the red will show.

CAUTION! Risk of Cuts/Abrasions. Wear protective gloves and safety glasses during installation. Sheet metal edges are sharp.

CAUTION! Risk of Fire or Asphyxiation! DO NOT draw outside combustion air from wall, floor or ceiling cavity, or enclosed spaces such as an attic or garage. • DO NOT place outside air inlet hood close to exhaust

vents or chimneys. Fumes or odor could be drawn into the room through the fireplace.

• Locate outside air inlet hood to prevent blockage from leaves, snow/ice, or other debris. Blockages could cause combustion air starvation.

NOTICE:If you live in an area with very cold winter months, you will want to use room air as opposed to bringing in ex-tremely cold air from outside of the home. This will eliminate creating a draft of cold outside air infiltrating your home. Definitely keep the lever to the LEFT when not using the fireplace if the duct has been installed.

E. Install Ceiling Firestops CAUTION! Risk of Fire! Ceiling firestops must be used

whenever the chimney penetrates a ceiling/floor.• Chase construction requires ceiling firestops at each

floor or every 10 ft. (3.05 m) of clear space.• The ceiling firestop slows spread of fire and reduces

cold air infiltration.

• Installaceilingfirestopwheneverchimneypenetratesceiling/floor.

Figure 5.5 Prepare Attic Insulation Shield

F. Install Attic Insulation ShieldWARNING! Risk of Fire! You MUST install an attic insu-lation shield when there is any possibility of insulation or other combustible material coming into contact with the chimney. • DO NOT pack insulation between the chimney and the

attic insulation shield. • Failure to keep insulation and other materials away from

chimney pipe could cause fire.• DO NOT offset chimney inside insulation shield.• Combustible material may come in contact with the attic

insulation shield as long as the required clearances are maintained to the chimney pipe.
