Framing dimension A includes a three inch clearance for stand-

offs on rebox.

Any vent-free Gas Log Heater must be “For use with approved

ANSI Z21.11.2 unvented room heater.”

Follow and complete the installation instructions of the gas log set

andtherequirementsofthisrebox.

Checkallttingsforleaksbeforelightingthegaslogset.

In planning the installation for the rebox, it is necessary to

determine where the unit is to be installed and whether optional

accessories are desired. Gas supply piping should also be planned

at this time.

A gas shut off must be in this line.

Thereboxcanbemountedonanyofthesesurfaces:

1. Aathardcombustibleornon-combustiblesurface.

2. A raised platform of combustible or non-combustible

material.

3. Recessed into the floor as illustrated by Figure 4 (flush

face).

4. Supportedunderall(4)cornersofthereboxsothatcontact

is made on all four perimeter edges on the bottom of the unit

(Example: Four (4) concrete masonry blocks).

If the firebox is installed directly on carpeting, tile or other

combustiblematerialotherthanwoodooring,itshouldbeinstalled

on a metal or wood panel extending the full width and depth of

the unit.

At this point, you should have decided what components to include

inyourinstallation,andwherethereboxistobelocated.Ifthis

has not been done, stop and consult your dealer for assistance with

this planning.

Planning Your Installation

Please note that the optional BVA1 Fresh Air kit available for use

with the Vent Free Firebox must be installed at the time of the initial

to the framed opening.

Refer to the instructions provided with each of the optional

accessory kits for proper installation and operation.

Firebox Framing

Firebox framing can be built before or after the rebox is set

in place. Framing should be positioned to accommodate wall

coveringandreboxfacingmaterial.Thereboxframingshould

be constructed of 2 x 4 lumber or heavier. The framing headers may

restonthetopofthereboxstandoffs.RefertoFigures 6 and 7
