1.  Ensure that the two 

long 

mounting brackets are facing the bottom 

of the termination. (See inset). This will provide more heat protection 

at the top of the termination, where temperatures are highest.

2.  Attach to the faceplate of the termination using four sheet metal 

screws.

Installing Heat Guards over Terminations 

Installing The Remote Switch

The L-Series DF'

s gas valve, located behind the lower trim, may be 

connected to a wall switch. The valve generates its own power on

 a 

millivolt circuit. Use only low voltage wire, and DO NOT connect 

any external power to it.

Note:

  The switch location must not exceed 30' from the fireplace.

Installing The Standoffs

To  avoid  elevated  mantel  temperatures,  all  L-Series  DF  gas 

fireplaces are required to have the supplied standoffs installed.

The fireplace is supplied with two standoffs. Bend and install these 

standoffs on top of the fireplace ensuring that the height of the standoff 

maintains a 6" clearance.

Installing the standoffs.

Installing the Nailing  

Flange Extension  

Once the fireplace is placed into the framed opening, the supplied 

nailing extension must be placed along the top edge of the fireplace, 

and nailed in place to the framing, as illustrated below.
