Caution Requirements
The top, back and sides of the replace are dened 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 res is failure to maintain required clearances (air space) to combustible materials. It is of the greatest importance
that this replace and vent system be installed only in accordance with these instructions.

COMBUSTIBLE MANTEL CLEARANCES
Because of the extreme heat this replace emits, the mantel clearances are critical.
Combustible mantel clearances from top of unit are shown in the diagram below.
Note: Mantel starts at *1" deep and ends at *12" deep. **For Vignette with Vignette Finishing Trim ush nish, all materials (framing & nishing) below
the mantel and the width of the Vignette nishing trim, (37-3/4") must be non-combustible if a lower mantel is desired.
Note: Ensure the paint that is used on the mantel and the facing is "heat resistant" or the paint may discolour.

installation
Install Side Nailing Strips, Top Facing Support, and Top Standoffs
before unit is slipped into position. See the "Unit Assembly Prior to
Installation" section for assembly details.
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 replace itself.)
3) The top of the replace opening must not be closer than 36-3/4"
(933mm) to the ceiling.
Note: Secure the non-combustible board directly above
the unit as shown. Install a steel stud directly above the
unit as shown to secure the non -combustible material.

*NOTE: When using the optional Vignette nishing trim, this can be installed as a 3-sided or 4 sided nish trim. If choosing to use this as a 4 sided nish trim
the framing would need to be increased by 11/16" inches minimum in order for this to t. This
must be to the nished oor. (Eg :42" framing height + 11/16" to bottom of 4-sided nishing trim +1/2 thick nished oor = 43 3/16

IMPORTANT FINISHING DETAIL NOTE:
Before placing unit into nal position - it is important to know the total
thickness / height of nished hearth (tile, carpet, etc.) The base of the
replace should be level or higher than the nished hearth height.
Important:
Finishing materials such as tile, river rock, etc, must not protrude
beyond the front facing anges the sides and top of the rebox opening.
Note: All non-combustible facing material should butt up cleanly
to the anges around the rebox opening.
Rough edges will be visible from the front view with the
ush Flush Panels or ush panels - if not using the optional
nishing trim.
To maintain a clean nished edge - it is recommended to
install the non-combustible facing material with the nished
edge against the replace / nailing strips.
Alternatively, you can use J Style Trim or Metal Corner Bead
to cover cut edges of the non-combustible facing material.
UNIT ASSEMBLY PRIOR TO INSTALLATION
BEFORE YOU START
The Top Facing Support, the Side Nailing Strips, the 2 Top Standoffs and the Flue Collar must be correctly positioned and attached before the replace
is moved into position.
TOP STANDOFF ASSEMBLY
The top standoffs are shipped in a at position and must be folded into shape and
attached.
1) Take each standoff and bend into the correct shape. Bend up at the bend lines
until the screw holes in the standoff and the pre-punched slots on the replace
top line up. Be sure to use correct slots, they are marked.
2) Attach the standoff securely to the top with 2 screws per standoff (on opposite
corners).

TOP FACING SUPPORT (IF NOT USING VIGNETTE FINISHING TRIM)
Determine the total thickness of facing material (e.g. non combustible, drywall or wood plus
ceramic tiles) to allow the nished surface to be ush with the front of the unit. Total facing
thickness can vary from 1/2" (13mm) to 1-1/4" (32mm) thick.
The Top Facing Support can be mounted in
3 different positions depending on the
thickness of the facing material.
1) Mount Top Facing Support using the 3 supplied screws into the three pre-punched
screw holes on the top front of the unit. Use hole positions A, B, or C depending on your
facing depth.

SIDE NAILING STRIPS
The side nailing strips come attached to the unit.
There are 2 plates, one on the top and bottom
that can be folded out as required.
If nishing ush with the Vignette Finishing Trim
-bend nailing strips around side trim pieces as
shown below.
NOTE:
If nishing ush with the Vignette Finishing Trim–
there are 2 nailing strips that may be used. If the
total thickness of material is between 2- 3/8 inches
to 3-1/8 inches,use the nailing strip provided for
positions A,B,C. Nailing strip marked D may be
discarded.
If the thickness of material is between 1/2" to
1-7/8 "use nailing strip provided marked D. The other
nailing strip for positions A,B,C may be discarded.

Determine the total thickness of facing
material (e.g. drywall or wood plus ce-
ramic tiles) to allow the nished surface
to be ush with the front of the unit.
Total facing thickness can vary from
1/2" (13mm) to 3-1/8" thick.
Side nailing strips can be adjusted from 1/2"
to 2-5/8".
