CHOOSING THE LOCATION FOR YOUR FIREPLACE:
The figure below shows some of many ways your fireplace may be installed. Consider traffic
pattern in your room and location of doors and windows. Moving air from ceiling fans, open
doors and hot air grills may cause flames to soot. If a disturbance is found that affects flames, it
must be eliminated by turning off ceiling fan, closing door or closing or moving hot air register.
A corner location may be best where space is limited.
Your fireplace weighs no more than some of your fine furniture. If fireplace is located near a
