Fireplace Installation
WARNING: Ensure the power
cord is not installed so that it is
pinched or against a sharp edge
and ensure that the power cord is
stored or secured to avoid tripping
or snagging to reduce the risk
of fire, electric shock or injury to
persons.
WARNING: Construction
and electrical outlet wiring must
comply with local building codes
and other applicable regulations
to reduce the risk of fire, electric
shock and injury to persons.
WARNING: Do not attempt
to wire your own new outlets or
circuits. To reduce the risk of fire,
electric shock or injury to persons,
always use a licensed electrician.
WARNING: To reduce the risk
of fire, do not store or use gaso-
line or other flammable vapors or
liquids in the vicinity of the heater.
!
NOTE:
A 15amp, 120-volt cir-
cuit is required. A dedicated cir-
cuit is preferred but not essential
in all cases. A dedicated circuit
will be required if, after installa-
tion, the circuit breaker trips or
the fuse blows on a regular basis
when the heater is operating. Ad-
ditional appliances on the same
circuit may exceed the current
rating of the circuit breaker.
WARNING: The Convex In
Stud fireplace is wall mount-
able and can be built in a wall
space 16" (406 mm) over-cen-
ter between 2" (51 mm) x 4"
(102 mm) wall studs. Follow
the installation instructions for
either wall mount or built-in
mounting; failure to do so may
cause damage or injury.
CAUTION: High temperature,
risk of fire, keep electrical
cords, drapery, furnishings,
and other combustibles at
least 3 feet (0.9 m) from the
front of the heater.
Wall Mounting Instructions
1. Leave the glass assembly un-
installed until step 10.
2. Select a location for the fire-
place, preferably above an
electrical outlet and there
must be at least one wall stud
behind for the fireplace to
mount onto. The bottom of
the unit must be a minimum
of 14" (356 mm) above the
floor (mounting holes 29¾"
(0.75 m) minimum above the
floor) (Figure 2).
