The top standoffs are shipped loose inside
the replace and must be installed on top
of the replace as shown in Fig #8. Do this
once the replace is on site and in position.
In planning the installation for the replace, it is necessary to determine where the unit is to
be installed, location of vent system and where gas supply piping may be plumbed.Various
installations are possible, such as, into an existing wall, a corner, a built-in wall or a wall
projection (Fig #9). Due to high temperatures, do not locate this replace in areas of high
traffic or near furniture or draperies.
The minimum clearances from the replace to combustible surfaces must be adhered
to and are shown in Fig #2 and Fig #3.

Note: The replace should be in place
and venting installed before framing in
or building an enclosure around the unit.
TheTown & Country replace must be framed
in as described below or totally enclosed
with non-combustible material, such as
facing brick.
Determine the total thickness of facing
material to be used. A thickness of 3/4" will
allow the nishing surface to be ush with
the front of the unit. If preferred, additional
masonry type non-combustible material can
be installed above and to the sides up to 6
inches proud of the appliance.
The nishing material must not interfere
with glass frame access or movement.
A Steel Stud Framing Kit is supplied with the
replace and must be used unless the
replace is totally enclosed with
non-combustible material. Assemble the
framing kit as per the instructions on pages 10
& 11 of this manual. Attach the steel frame to
the replace once the replace is in its nal
position.Secure the steel frame to the framing
brackets on each side of the unit.Ensure that
the studs are set back far enough to allow for
thickness of nishing surface.
The sides, back and top of the replace can
be framed in up to the steel studs and the
replace standoffs using conventional
lumber. Consult local building codes for
specic requirements.
Due to high temperatures,non-combustible
backer board, such as cement board or it’s
equivalent must be used to sheet in the front
of the replace, extending 12" above and
5 7/8" to the side of the framing edge bars.
(Fig #11) Standard sheet rock (dry wall) may
be used beyond this.
If the backer board is not to be nished with
other non-combustible material such as tiles,
it is recommended that the instructions in
Fig.#11a be followed closely.
Chase Insulation: When installing this
replace against a non-insulated exterior wall
or chase, it is recommended that the outer
walls be insulated to same degree as other
exterior walls. Do not place replace directly
against the insulation. Cover the insulation
and plastic vapour barrier with a solid surface,
such as dry wall (sheet rock). Consult local
codes. Do not insulate or use plastic vapour
barrier within the framing kit.
CAUTION: SEE FIGURE #11a BEFORE
PROCEEDING.

Verify gas pressures with the replace lit and on the highest setting.
Please refer to the Burner Installation Manual for gas pressure testing procedure.
Caution: The gas line should be installed by a qualied service person in accordance with
all building codes. This section is intended as a guide for qualied technicians installing
this appliance. Consult local and / or national building codes before proceeding.
• Gas supply line access holes are located at the top and left sides of the Control Box.
Gas valve inlet accepts a 3/8" N.P.T. tting. Correct gas line diameter must be used
to assure proper operation and pressure.
• NOTE:A sediment trap,as per national fuel gas code, must be installed in the gas
supply line no more than 6 feet from the gas control valve to minimize the possibility
of any loose scale or dirt within the gas supply line from entering the control valve.
• DO NOT HARD PIPE GAS LINE TO VALVE. A method of disconnecting the valve
from the gas line such as a union or are tting must be provided to allow for repair
or replacement of the gas valve.
Check local codes for additional requirements.
1. Connect the gas supply to the valve (Fig. #24)
2. Turn on the gas supply and check that all connections are tight and leak free.
WARNING: The access panel including gasket must be
reinstalled after conversion/installation or servicing
has been completed. Failure to do so will cause
overheating and premature failure of the control system.

Exterior wall opening:
Determine the exact position of the replace so that the vent pipe is centred (if possible)
between two building framing members. Consult your local building codes prior to proceed-
ing. The vent kit will accommodate up to a maximum wall thickness of 12 inches.
1. Having determined the position of the replace, cut and frame a 14 1/2 inch opening
centred at a minimum height of 52 7/16 inches above the oor. The opening may be
round or square. Height of the opening will vary with each installation. As the horizontal
vent run increases, so does the minimum vertical rise (see Fig. #35).
IMPORTANT: When locating the opening, it should be noted that vent terminal clearances
must be maintained. See "Vent Terminal Clearances" section for proper clearances.
A minimum 1 foot length of pipe is required before the rst elbow off the top of the replace
for any wall termination. With this minimum vertical rise in combination with a 90° elbow, a
maximum horizontal run of 24 inches past the elbow is permitted (see Fig. #34 & #35). For
longer horizontal runs increase vertical rise appropriately.
The rise and run must be constrained to the boundaries of the chart shown in Fig. #35. The
horizontal run of vent must have a 1/4" rise for every 1 ft. of run towards the termination.
Before installing venting for this unit, the installer should read these instructions to insure
that the proper vent conguration has been selected.
Use only Town and Country Termination kits #:
TCVT.WTA - Wall Termination Kit
TCVT.RTA - Roof Termination Kit
Vent system components approved for use with the Town and Country Fireplace are shown
in Fig. #33.
NOTE: Optional PowerVent (TCVT.PVI.25,TCVT.PV7.110 &TCVT.PVCV) requires different
venting. Please refer to Power Vent manual.
Various combinations of vertical and horizontal runs may be used. Refer to Fig. #35 and
36 for details. For optimum performance and ame appearance, keep the vent length
to a minimum and limit the number of elbows. Connections between each vent system
component must be tightly joined, secured with sheet metal screws and sealed with provided
high temperature self adhesive tape. A horizontal run of vent should have a 1/4" rise for
every 1 ft. of run towards the termination.
VENT SUPPORTS: A minimum of 1 support every 4’ must be used.
CAUTION: UNDER NO CONDITION SHOULD COMBUSTIBLE MATERIAL BE CLOSER
THAN 1 ¾ INCHES FROMTHETOPAND 1 ¾ INCHES FROMTHE SIDES OFA HORIZON-
TAL SECTION AND 1 ¾ INCHES FROM THE VERTICAL SECTIONS OFTHE VENT PIPE.

WALL THIMBLE AND VENT MUST NOT PROTRUDE BEYOND SIDING
Fig. #31
Wall thimble:
Where a vent pipe passes through a combustible wall, a wall thimble/shield must be used
to retain insulation and maintain proper clearances. The wall thimble may be cut to length
for various wall thicknesses up to 12" thick.
Measure the wall thickness including the siding.Trim the shield to match the wall thickness.
Position the wall thimble from inside through the 14-1/2" opening. Properly adjusted, the
thimble should be ush with the outer wall surface.
