VII. INSTRUCTIONS FOR FRAMING THE
J2001T OR J1001B FIREPLACE INSERT
Page 29
1998-2006 Edition
In planning the installation for the J2001T Insert, it is necessary to install certain components before the
fireplace is completely positioned and installed. These include the direct vent system and the electrical wiring.
Determine if the fireplace is to be installed inside the room, recessed in the wall, corner mounted or elevated
on a hearth pad. The J2001T Fireplace Insert can be installed with a standard size shroud (part # C187) or
a large size shroud (part # C188). The opening in the framing for the fireplace is dependent on the shroud
that you choose and are listed in the table below. Both the standard and the large shroud will give the fireplace
proper clearance for the exhaust venting.
Positioning of the fireplace will vary depending on such factors as which shroud is being used and the amount
of wall, fascia or trim you want exposed. Place the Insert, with shroud, at the position that is desirable. Check
to make sure that this position serves form and function. Finalize the fireplace location.
Determine the exact position of the fireplace so that the direct vent pipe is centered, if possible, between two
studs. This will avoid any extra framing. The back of the fireplace may be positioned 1" (25mm) clearance
from the combustible wall.
The height of the hearth is
optional.
However, 12-14
inches (305-356mm) is a good
height if you want to sit on the
hearth.
The fireplace framing should be
constructed of 2 x 4 (51mm x
102mm) lumber or heavier. To
install the fireplace recessed in
the wall, it is necessary to cut a
hole in the wall and build a
small insulated chase. A chase
is a box like structure built to
enclose the fireplace.
Caution: These instructions are
not substitutes for the
requirements of local building
codes. Therefore, your local
building codes must be
checked to determine the
requirements of these steps.
