FRAMING AND FINISHING
Note: The fireplace should be in place and venting in-
stalled before framing in or building an enclosure around
the unit.
The Town & Country fireplace 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 finishing surface to be flush
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 finishing
material must not interfere with glass frame access.
A Steel Stud Framing Kit is supplied with the fireplace and
must be used unless the fireplace is totally enclosed with
non-combustible material. Assemble the framing kit as per
the instructions on page 38 of this manual. Attach the steel
frame to the fireplace once the fireplace is in its final 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 finishing surface.
The sides, back and top of the fireplace can be framed in
up to the steel studs and the fireplace standoffs using con-
ventional lumber. Consult local building codes for specific
requirements.
Due to high temperatures, concrete board is supplied with
the fireplace and must be used to sheet in the front of the
fireplace, extending 12" above and 5 7/8" to the side of the
framing edge bars. (Fig 7) Standard sheetrock (drywall) may
be used beyond this.
Chase Insulation: When installing this fireplace 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 fireplace directly against the insulation. Cover the
insulation and plastic vapour barrier with a solid surface, such
as drywall (sheetrock). Consult local codes. Do not insulate
or use plastic vapour barrier within the framing kit.

for aesthetic reasons. The hearth
extension should be noncombustible
and must not be any more than 1"
above the bottom of the fireplace. If
thicker, fireplace must be raised up
accordingly.
Caution: Hearth extensions thicker
than 1" will interfere with the window
frame.

VENTING
Before installing venting for this unit, the installer should read
these instructions to insure that the proper vent configuration
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 49.
Various combinations of vertical and horizontal runs may be
used. Refer to # 53 and 54 for details. For optimum performance
and flame 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. A horizontal run of vent should have
a 1/4" rise for every 1 ft. of run towards the termination.
CAUTION: UNDER NO CONDITION SHOULD COMBUSTI-
BLE MATERIAL BE CLOSER THAN 1 3/4 INCHES FROM
THE TOP AND 1 3/4 INCHES FROM THE SIDES OF A
HORIZONTAL SECTION AND 1 3/4 INCHES FROM THE
VERTICAL SECTIONS OF THE VENT PIPE.
WALL TERMINATION VENTING
Exterior wall opening:
Determine the exact position of the fireplace 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 fireplace, cut and
frame a 14 1/2 inch opening centred at a minimum height
of 52 7/16 inches above the floor. 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. #53).
IMPORTANT: When locating the opening, it should be
noted that vent terminal clearances must be maintained.
See "Vent Terminal Clearances" section for proper clear-
ances.
A minimum 1 foot length of pipe is required off the top of the
fireplace for any wall termination. With this minimum vertical
rise in combination with a 90° elbow, a maximum horizontal
run of 24 inches is permitted (see Fig 53 and Fig 54). For
longer horizontal runs greater than 18 inches, increase verti-
cal rise appropriately.
The rise and run must be constrained to the boundaries of the
chart shown in Fig 53. The horizontal run of vent must have a
1/4" rise for every 1 ft. of run towards the termination.

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 flush with the outer wall surface.

Vent Pipe:
Install the vent pipe through the wall thimble and attach to
the flue outlet collar on top of the fireplace. Secure all joints
with screws and seal with the approved "High Temperature"
self-adhesive aluminum tape provided.
The fireplace position may need to be adjusted to ensure
that the vent pipe does not protrude beyond the outer wall
or be recessed any more than 12 inches.
Wall Vent Terminal:
1) Engage the 8" vent collar with the vent pipe and slide
the terminal into place. Attach the terminal to the outside
wall. The vent terminal must not be recessed into the
exterior wall or siding.
2) Caulk the terminal in place to prevent any moisture enter-
ing the building.
NOTE: MINIMUM CLEARANCES TO THE VENT TERMINAL
MUST BE MAINTAINED. (Fig 53)
