Fireplace Installation
New Wall Construction
1. Mark the desired location on
the floor and store the fire-
place in a safe, dry and dust
free location.
2. Use studs to frame an open-
ing of 31 ¾ in. (807 mm) wide
x 22 ¾ in. (578 mm) high x
9 ½ in. (241 mm) deep.
Option #1 - The power cord can
be lead from behind the trim
and along the wall to an outlet
near the fireplace.
Option #2 - A new outlet can be
installed inside the new frame
construction. Plug the unit di-
rectly into a 15 A, 120 V outlet.
!
NOTE 1: A 15 Amp, 120 Volt
circuit is required. A dedicated
circuit is preferred but not es-
sential in all cases. A dedi-
cated circuit will be required
if, after installation, the circuit
breaker trips or fuse blows
on a regular basis when the
heater is operating. Additional
appliances on the same circuit
may exceed the current rating
of the circuit breaker.
Option #3 - Hardwire
1. Wire a dedicated, properly
fused circuit with 120 Volt,
8
15 Amp rating. Allow up to
8 ft. (2.4 m) of service cable
for connecting power supply
to junction box on fireplace
when installing after finishing
wall.
CAUTION: Use two conduc-
tor, non-metallic sheath cable
with ground wire (3 wires total)
for the incoming power supply on
fireplace inserts. Use appropriate
wire to meet local and national
electrical codes for rated power
