Planning Installation - Empire OL48TP10-1 Instructions D'installation Et Mode D'emploi

What to consider Before installing
1. Verify firepit gas type and gas supply type are the same.
2. Look for a location where combustibles will not interfere.
3. 120V GFI power outlet will be needed for LED lights
4. Choose a location for gas shutoff valve. Installation requires that
an accessable external gas shutoff be installed. (Not provided)
5. Verify ventilation meets at least minimum requirements
6. Drainage under firepit.
7. Drain pan and weather cover accessories. (optional)
8. Glass wind kit accessories (optional)
When planning the installation for the firepit, determine where the
unit is to be installed and whether optional accessories are desired.
Gas supply piping should also be planned at this time.
The firepit can be mounted on any of these surfaces:
1. A raised frame of combustible material.
2. Brick, block, or stone base installation
Contact must be made on all four perimeter flanges with a depth
of least 7-1/2 inches to retain the firepit. Internal opening
dimensions are shown in Figure 5. Enclosures should include
provision for water drainage.

Depth C 22-5/8 Min. 23-1/2 Max. 22-5/8 Min. 23-1/2 Max.
*If installing a drain tray accessary, add at least 6" inches more to
the height of the enclosure to allow enough space for the drain pan,
connector, and tubing clearance.
At this point, you should have decided what components to include
in your installation, and where the firepit is to be located. If this has
not been done, stop and consult your dealer for assistance with
this planning.

Direct wind will cause an erratic flame and possible burner outage.
This erratic flame could also lead to excessive black soot. These
are nuisance issues rather than safety issues.
Typical installation may include covered patio, open porch, gazebo
or an outside wall of a house.
• Minimum porch area – 96 square feet
• Minimum ceiling height – 48 inches
LED Lights will require a 120V GFI power outlet on the valve end
of the firepit. The GFI plug will be located outside of the firepit. A
junction box is provided inside the firepit to provide a location to
plug in the LEDs.
Outdoor Firepit location Requirements
Do not install firepit until all necessary provisions are made for
combustion and ventilation air. Consult the written instructions
provided with the firepit for information concerning combustion and
ventilation air. In the absence of instructions, refer to the National
Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, Air for Combustion and
Ventilation, or applicable local codes.
Installation in partial enclosures must conform with one of the
following conditions:
• With walls on back and one side, but with no overhead cover.
See Figures 6.

• Within a partial enclosure which includes an overhead cover
and no more than two side walls. These side walls may be
parallel, as in a breezeway. See Figures 7 and 8.
