Caution Requirements
The top, back and sides of the fireplace are defined by
standoffs. The metal ends of the standoff may NOT
be recessed into combustible construction.
WARNING
Fire hazard is an extreme risk
if these clearances (air space) to combustible materials are not
adhered to. It is of greatest importance that this replace and vent
system be installed only in accordance with these instructions.
CLEARANCES
The clearances listed below are Minimum distances unless otherwise stated:
A major cause of chimney related fires is failure to maintain required clearances (air space) to combustible materials. It is of the greatest
importance that this fireplace and vent system be installed only in accordance with these instructions.
Clearance: Dimension Measured From:
A: Mantel Height (min.) 17-9/16" (446mm) Top of Fireplace Opening
B: Sidewall 9" (229mm) Side of Fireplace Opening
C: Ceiling 36-5/8" (930mm) Top of Fireplace Opening
D: Mantel Depth (max.) 12" (304mm) 25-13/16" (651mm)

MANTEL CLEARANCES
Due to the extreme heat this fireplace emits, the mantel clearances are critical.
Note: Ensure the paint that is used on the mantel
and the facing is "heat resistant" or the paint
may discolour.
MANTEL LEG CLEARANCES
Combustible mantel clearances from top of front
facing are shown in the diagram on the right.
Note: A non-combustible mantel may be
installed at a lower height if the framing is
made of metal studs covered with a non-
combustible board. The non-combustible
mantel when installed at a lower overall
height may not be lower than 6 inches
from the top of the replace opening.

FRAMING & FINISHING
B41XTCE-11 Gas Fireplace
1. Frame in the enclosure for the unit with framing material.
Note: When constructing the framed opening, please ensure there is access to install the gas lines when the unit is installed.
2. For exterior walls, insulate the enclosure to the same degree as the rest of the house; apply vapour barrier and drywall, as per local installation
codes. (Do not insulate the fireplace itself.)
WARNING: Failure to insulate and add vapor barriers to the inside of the exterior wall will result in operational and performance
problems including, but not limited to: excessive condensation on glass doors, poor flame package, carbon, blue flames etc. These
are not product related issues.
3. The unit does not have to be completely enclosed in a chase. You must maintain clearances from the vent to combustible materials: See
"Clearances" section. Combustible materials can be laid against the side and back standoffs and the stove base.
4. Tile Finish Option 1: Drywall may be installed onto the unit as shown below to create a surface to apply finishing materials such as tile, slate,
etc.
Drywall cannot extend beyond the metal surface of the unit.
5. Tile Finish Option 2: If applying a non-combustible finishing material (tile,slate,etc) the material can be installed directly onto the metal surface
(clean front) of the unit in the area shown below.
CLEAN FINISH
6. If applying a non-combustible facing it may be installed over the metal surface (clean front) of the unit in the area shown below.

NOTE: The 6" x 46-11/16" non combustible material supplied with this unit can be replaced if trying to achieve a clean finish. A large piece of non
combustible material (ie. 4' x 8' x 1/2" can be used to eliminate taped seams on or near unit.

7. Non-combustible material (ie. tile, slate, etc) may be brought up to the edge of the glass door of the unit. Minimum clearances must be adhered
to, this will assure ease of glass door removal and access to the lower panel.
NOTE: Non-combustible finishing materials may be of any thickness desired.
Minimum Clearances for Finishing Materials Note: All non-combustible facing material should butt up cleanly
to the flanges around the firebox opening.
Rough edges may be visible from an angle.
To maintain a clean finished edge - facing material edges
may be finished with a J-style trim or metal corner bead (both
materials available at your local building or hardware store).
IMPORTANT: Materials used must be NON-COMBUSTIBLE.
IMPORTANT FINISHING DETAIL NOTE:
Before placing unit into final position - it is important to know the
total thickness / height of finished hearth (tile, carpet, etc.) The
base of the fireplace, 4 sided faceplate or mantel should be level
or higher than the finished hearth height.

FOR HORIZONTAL TERMINATIONS
VENTING ARRANGEMENTS
The shaded area in the diagram shows all allowable combinations of
straight vertical and offset to vertical terminations, using two 90o elbows,
with Rigid Pipe Venting Systems for Propane and Natural Gas. Two
45o elbows equal to one 90o elbow. Maximum of four 45o elbows allowed.
• Vent must be supported at offsets.
• Firestops are required at each floor level and whenever passing
through a wall.
• Maintain clearances to combustibles as listed in the "Clearances"
section.
• Refer to the "Vent Restrictor Position" section for details on how to
change the vent restrictor from the factory setting to 3-1/2" opening,
2-1/2"opening and to 1-1/2" opening.
Note: Must use Rigid Pipe Adaptor (770-994) when using rigid pipe.
The diagram shows all allowable combinations of vertical runs with
horizontal terminations, using one 90o (two 45o elbows equal one 90o
elbow).
• Maintain clearances to combustibles as listed in "Clearances" section
• Horizontal vent must be supported every 3 feet.
• Firestops are required at each floor level and whenever passing
through a wall.
• A wall thimble is mandatory for all horizontal terminations due to
high temperatures.
