FOR YOUR SAFETY - Do not install or operate your Town & Country replace without rst reading and understanding
this manual. Any installation or operational deviation from the following instructions voids the Town & Country
FireplacesTM Warranty and may prove hazardous.
This appliance and its individual shut off valve must be disconnected from gas supply piping system during any pressure
testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).
This appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shut off valve during
any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).
Note: When lit for the rst time, the appliance will emit a slight odour for a couple of hours. This is due to the curing of
paints, sealants and lubricants used in the manufacturing process. This condition is temporary. Open doors and windows
to ventilate area. Smoke and fumes caused by the curing process may cause discomfort to some individuals.
Do not use the replace if any part has been under water. Immediately call a qualied service technician to inspect the
replace and to replace any part of the control system and any gas control which has been under water.
Due to high temperatures, this gas appliance should be located out of trafc and away from furniture and draperies.
Children and adults should be alerted to the hazards of high surface temperatures and should stay away to avoid burns
or clothing ignition.
Young children should be carefully supervised when they are in the same room as the appliance. Toddlers, young
children, and others may be susceptible to accidental contact burns. A physical barrier is recommended if there are
at-risk individuals in the house. To restrict access to a replace or stove, install an adjustable safety gate to keep
toddlers, young children, and other at-risk individuals out of the room and away from hot surfaces.
Clothing or other ammable material should not be placed on or near the appliance.
Any grill, panel or door removed for servicing the unit must be replaced prior to operating. Failure to do so may create a
hazardous condition.
Installation and repair should be done by a qualied service person. The appliance should be inspected before use and
at least annually by a professional service person. More frequent cleaning may be required due to excessive lint from
carpeting, bedding material, etc. It is imperative that control compartments, burners and circulating air passageways of
the appliance be kept clean.
It is our policy that no responsibility is assumed by the Company or by any of its employees or representatives for any
damages caused by an inoperable, inadequate, or unsafe condition which is the result, either directly or indirectly, of any
improper operation or installation procedures.
This appliance must not be connected to a chimney ue serving a separate solid fuel burning appliance.
It has been determined that the Town and Country model TCWS.54STOK indoor/outdoor Fireplace has an R value of 5.8.
This determination has been arrived at by the calculation of the typical R value of two layers of 5mm Ceramic glass,
combined with 17 inches of ventilated air gap. The one layer of 5mm tempered glass has been ignored in the calculation
due to it being open to the exterior air environment on both sides. Real world results may vary due to environmental
factors.

Window Frame Removal
Warning: Turn off the fireplace, and allow ample time for the unit to cool before proceeding.
Caution: The ceramic glass is very fragile, and should be handled with care.
The window frame is held in place by two spring-loaded latches that are operated by a one-piece latch handle.
1. Remove safety barrier screen (Figure 4) by prying the top portion of the screen toward you, then lift the screen from its tabs
(inset) located at the base of the window frame.
2. Remove the TC Finishing Touch Trim Kit from the window frame. (If installed)
3. Using a screwdriver (Figure 5) or other similar object, push against the notch in the top of the latch and grab the bottom of the
latch handle as it protrudes (Figure 6). Lift handle until latch hook disengages. Repeat for other side while holding glass so it does
not tip out.
4. Tilt the top of the window frame out to clear the top edge of the unit. Grasp the sides of the frame and lift up and out to disengage
from its bottom track.
5. Place the window frame in a safe place to avoid damage.
6. Re-assemble in reverse order. Latch handle should snap into place and be ush with window frame when engaged correctly.
7. Reinstall Trim Kit if required.
8. Reinstall safety barrier screen.
TIP:
To ensure glass is properly latched, grasp the top left and right sides of the glass
frame, under moderate pressure it should pull forward and return to original position
evenly on both sides.

The framing kit, once assembled and attached, are used as the top and side standoffs.
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 types of installations are possible, such as, a peninsula
wall, an island, and between two interior walls (Figure 9). Due to high temperatures, do not locate this replace in areas
of high trafc or near furniture or draperies.
The minimum clearances from the replace to combustible surfaces must be adhered to and are shown in Figure 2 and Figure 3.

Possible locations.
5055.545-A
Note: The fireplace should be in place
and venting installed before framing
in or building an enclosure around the
unit.
When the appliance is installed directly on
carpeting, tile or other combustible
material, other than wood ooring, the
appliance shall be installed on a metal or
wood panel extending the full width and
depth of the appliance.
The Town & 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 forward of the
appliance.
*The finishing material must not inter-
fere with glass frame access.*
A Steel Stud Framing Kit is supplied with
the replace and must be used unless the
replace is totally enclosed with
non-combustible material. The framing
kit comes fully assembled and the out-
door section of the replace come fully
insulated.
The sides and top of the replace are
framed in up to the steel studs using
conventional lumber. Consult local build-
ing codes for specic requirements.
Due to high temperatures, non-combusti-
ble backer board, such as cement board
or its equivalent, must be used to sheet in
the front of the replace, extending to the
top of the metal frame and laterally to the
framing edge bars (Figure 15). 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 top sec-
tions of the board be a single sheet of
calcium silicate board or its equivalent.
Taped and mudded joints may crack due
to the elevated temperatures.
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 exte-
rior walls. Do not place replace directly
against the insulation. Cover the insula-
tion 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 fram-
ing kit.
CAUTION: See Figure 17 before
proceeding.
NOTE:
The chase must be
properly sealed at the
ceiling level or between
floors in a multilevel
installation.
