  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 24 ½ in. (622 mm) wide 

X 18 ¼ in. (463.6 mm) high 

X 8 ⅞ in. (225.5 mm) deep.

Option #1

 - The power cord can 

be lead from behind the trim 

and along the wall to an outlet 

near the fireplace.

installed inside the new frame 

construction.  Plug the unit into 

a 15 Amp/120 Volt outlet.  

!

 NOTE:  

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.

fused circuit with 120 Volt,
