1. These fireplaces are designed for outdoor use only. Not ap-
proved for any indoor use.
2. We recommend using 3/4” black iron pipe; however please re-
fer to the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/ NFPA 54 (USA)
- latest edition or CAN/CGA-B149.1 Natural Gas And Propane
Installation Code (Canada) - latest edition for proper pipe sizing
when exceeding 20-feet in length for fireplaces .
3. Determine which fireplace you are preparing to install, single-
sided or see-through (refer to Page 8 or 11).
4. This fireplace is not a “load bearing” fireplace. All finishing
materials must be supported by the surrounding structure
and not rely on the fireplace itself.
5. Follow the local code requirements for the gas type being used.
This fireplace should be installed in accordance with local
codes and ordinances or in the absence of local codes, with the
National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/ NFPA 54 (USA) - latest
edition or CAN/CGA-B149.1 Natural Gas And Propane Installa-

6. Fireplaces create high temperatures, it is very important to
have any combustibles at a safe distance.
7. Fireplace should never be left unattended while in operation. It
should always be a safe distance from all trees and combus-
tible landscape materials.
8. The fireplace must be installed on a flat, level, stable, non-com-
bustible surface. Exception: It is permissible to place one layer
of 1/2” cement board underneath the entire fireplace, then it
may sit on a flat, level, stable, combustible surface. Drainage
is critical to ensure that water does not damage gas valve and
components. Never install the fireplace system below grade.
9. CAUTION: A minimum of 18 square inches of cross ventilation
(per side) is required to keep the inside of the enclosure dry.
Install the supplied VENT-KIT-6x12 (cat. no. F3535) approxi-
mately 3 to 4 inches from the floor centered on each end of the
fireplace (See Figure 3, Page 5).
10. Never fill the cavity under and around the valve box with any
material, this is air space necessary for ventilation.
11. Only non-combustible materials (i.e. metal studs and cement
board) should come in direct contact with any part of the fire-
place. Underneath area should be non-combustible or a flat
level combustible surface according to the clearances specified
in this manual. Bend out nailing flanges on ends of fireplace
and secure to metal studs.
12. This fireplace is designed to have glass media covering the
burner trough, so the burner tube is not visible. Use only the
media provided with the appliance or listed in the accessory
section of this manual (Page 31). DO NOT COVER THE IGNI-
TION HOOD WITH THE GLASS MEDIA. See Figures 33 and 34
on Pages 24 and 25 for details.
13. Gas lines and fittings must be installed in to the non-combus-
tible structure. All gas connections must be leak tested before
installation of the fireplace. Leak detection is required before
regular use of the fireplace.
14. Do not use alternative media that will absorb moisture over
time and will not release this moisture quickly. Moisture can
boil in this media and can rapidly break apart and cause prop-
erty damage or personal injury.
15. Never leave any other combustible material on top of the fire-
place. This could cause unsafe operation of this system and
damage to the component that will not be covered under our
warranty.
16. It is recommended to wear gloves when moving the fireplace
into position and watch for sharp edges when handling the fire-
place.
