FIREPLACE FRAMING AND INSTALLATION (CONT'D)
1. After gas and electrical hookup is completed, lower and
secure the burner assembly (leave two supports in bottom of
fireplace for future use) with the two screws removed in Step
9 on page 13.
2. Install the glass wind panel (two used on see-through fire-
places). The glass panel has a low emission (low-E) coating
applied to one side. The panel must be installed with the
low-E coating facing the burner. The panel will have a sticker
located in the bottom corner of the side which has the low-E
coating. Install the glass panel with the sticker facing the
burner and the bottom of the panel. See Figure 24.
DO NOT REMOVE THE STICKER before installing the
glass panel. It is located on the panel such that it should not
be visible after the control door is installed. This will allow
easy identification of the low-E side of the glass if the glass
panel is ever removed for service.
If the sticker is not on the glass panel, the low-E side of the
glass can be determined by using a multimeter/ohmmeter.
The low-E coating will conduct electricity. Set the meter
to read resistance (Ω). Hold the probes against the glass
surface approximately 1 inch apart. If the meter displays a
resistance reading (indicating continuity), this is the side of
the glass panel which has the low-E coating.
3. Reinstall the pivot bolts and washers removed in step 8 on
page 13 and reinstall the control door.
4. Unscrew the igniter button and install the AA battery provided
in the instruction envelope prior to closing the control door. See
Figure 25.
Framing and Finishing
The fireplace can be installed with panels around the opening as
a clean face installation. See Figure 26. The top and sides must
use non-combustible panels (provided) where shown going over
the face of the fireplace. Outside of this area, any weatherproof
wall board may be used.

FINISHING
The fireplace can also be installed with panels flush with the
face of the fireplace. See Figure 27. In this application, the two
top non-combustible panels (provided) are required above the
fireplace. Outside of this area including the sides outside of the
fireplace's metal may be any weatherproof wall board.
To complete installation place non-combustible panels above
fireplace opening. Center panels on fireplace and secure with
screws into frame. With the non-combustible panels in posi-
tion, predrill 1/8-in. diameter holes through the non-combustible
panels and top mounting standoffs before running the screws into
the top mounting standoff. Place non-combustible panels on the
sides of the fireplace opening. Secure with screws into the frame
and pre-drill 1/8-in. diameter holes into the fireplace face. Finish
remaining wall with weather-proof wall board.
NOTE: If installing the wall board in the flush face configuration,
trim the two top panels to 16-1/2 in. x 26-3/4 in. The smaller non-
combustible panels will not be needed.
NOTE: Areas where the film has been formed (corners, hems,
etc.) may require extra cleaning due to the properties of the film.
Ensure that all protective film has been removed from the fire-
place prior to burning.
