3.0 FRAMING
3.1 Installation Planning
This appliance oers several design options for managing the heat
produced by this replace.
Read all documentation for your specic installation
and design options prior to appliance installation.
• Standard Installation will be outlined in this manual in sections
marked ‘standard installation’ and must be followed if no design
options (vented cavity and Komfort Zone Kit) are to be used. The
replace chamber and ceiling minimum height must be 88”
(2235mm) for all design options.
If planning a standard installation with the use of a heat
transfer kit(s) (HTK-EXT and/or HTK-INT), the standard framing
dimensions will still apply.
• Heat Transfer Kit(s) allows you to transfer heat to a specic area
inside your home (interior) or directly outside (exterior). This
appliance can have (2) heat transfer kits installed at the same
time. It can be up to two of the same heat transfer kits, or a
combination of interior and exterior kits. See the HTK-EXT and/
or HTK-INT manuals for further information.
If you are planning a standard installation with the use of an
exterior and/or interior kit, the minimum dimensions listed in
this section will apply for your framing installation. You will still
need to remove the cover plates as instructed in Section 3.8 on
page 20. If you are installing a heat transfer kit with the use
of a KZK or vented cavity option, the minimum requirements
applicable to those options must be adhered to.
• Vented Cavity oers the option to leave a minimum sized
opening in the replace cavity, allowing for heat reduction above
the replace. This option allows for combustible facing materials
above the replace, heat reduction for a TV mounted above the
replace, and lower mantel clearances. See Section 3.9 Vented
Cavity and Komfort Zone Kit Installation on page 21.
All vented cavity options have the same minimum chamber
and ceiling dimension requirements as the standard installation
dimensions in this section. The replace chamber and ceiling
minimum height must be 88” (2235mm) for all design
options. Reference Section 3.9 Vented Cavity and Komfort Zone
Kit Installation on page 21.
• Komfort Zone Kit oers the option to redistribute radiant heat
through plenum(s). This option allows for combustible facing
materials above the replace, heat reduction for a TV above the
replace, and lower mantel clearances. See Section 3.9 Vented
Cavity and Komfort Zone Kit Installation on page 21.
If installing a Komfort Zone Kit (#KZK-045 or #KZK-1510A),
the framing requirements may be dierent than the standard
dimensions listed in this section. Please reference the manual
included with your kit before completing all replace framing
and other installation considerations.
• Kozy Power Vent is a fan-powered mechanical draft vent system
(horizontal terminations only) for use with any of the design
options listed above. It is easier to convert the replace for use
with the #KPV before framing in the replace. If you convert the
replace for use with the #KPV after replace installation, you will
have to remove the control board. See Section 8.5 Control Board
Access, Removal and Installation on page 53 for access to the
control board before and after installation.
• If planning to convert to propane, it is easier to complete the gas
conversion before framing in the replace. See the #LCK-BH44-
SPB manual for complete conversion instructions. If you convert
the replace to propane after replace installation, you will have
to remove the control board. See Section 8.5 Control Board
Access, Removal and Installation on page 53 for access to the
control board before and after installation.
Please read the instructions in this manual carefully for your
specic installation.
3.1.1 Appliance Placement Considerations
WARNING: Due to high temperatures, the appliance should be located
out of trac and away from furniture and draperies.
• This appliance must be installed on a level surface capable of
supporting the replace and venting. Determine your vent
requirements before framing your appliance.
If installing #KPV Kozy Power Vent, please reference the manual
included with the kit.
• This replace may be installed in a bedroom.
• Please be aware of the large amount of heat this replace will
produce when determining a location.
3.1.2 Moving the Appliance
This appliance is heavy. We recommend a team lift when moving,
placing, and positioning the appliance.

3.5 Rough Framing
Dimensions outlined below are the same for all design options.
WARNING: Provide adequate clearance in front of the replace for
barrier removal, component access, gas line installation, service
access, etc.
CAUTION: Cold air transfer area. The replace enclosure must comply
with all clearances as outlined in this manual, and be constructed
in compliance with local building codes. Outside walls should be
insulated to prevent cold air from entering room.
• Rough framing dimensions for standard installation should allow
for wall covering thickness and replace facing materials. Adjust
rough opening size as necessary to maintain minimum clearance
requirements.
• Floor protection in front of the replace is not required.
Combustible material may be used if installing a hearth
extension. Consider the thickness of the hearth extension
nishing material if building a replace platform. The hearth may
be ush with the bottom nishing edge.
• The bottom of the replace must be placed directly on a wood
or non-combustible surface (not linoleum or carpet). If this
appliance is to be installed directly on carpeting, tile, or other
combustible material other than wood ooring, this appliance
shall be installed on a metal or wood panel extending the full
width and depth of the appliance.
• This replace may be elevated o the oor, provided it is
properly supported by framing materials and maintains ceiling
clearances. If installed above oor level, a solid, continuous
platform must be constructed below the replace.
• If masonry (optional) is to be used, prepare the foundation
necessary for the full masonry load.
3.5.1 TV Recess Construction
WARNING: All clearances to venting must be maintained.
Mounting a television above a replace is a common practice. Mantel
depth, ceiling heights, and wall and mantel construction material all
aect television surface temperatures. Most television manufacturers
specify in their instructions that a television should not be installed
on, near, or above a heat source.
Television location rests solely on the homeowner. It is the home
owner’s responsibility that the preferred TV mounting and mantel
design will not exceed the listed maximum operation temperature of
their electronic goods.
Tests performed determined that television surface temperatures
did not exceed 150°F (66°C) when a 4¼” (108mm) deep recess is
constructed above the replace.

3.6.1 Vent Termination Framing Requirements
This is a cold air transfer area. The replace enclosure must comply
with all clearances as outlined in this manual, and be constructed
in compliance with local building codes. Outside walls should be
insulated to prevent cold air from entering room.
Exterior vent termination location must be in compliance with
Section 6.2 Minimum Natural Draft Vent Termination Clearances on
page 42.
IMPORTANT - METAL FAB VENT SYSTEM : When installing Metal Fab
vent pipe, an adapter must be used. This will increase the minimum
height for the center of the vent pipe by 3-1/4” (83mm) when framing
the wall pass through for horizontal terminations.
3.6.1.1 Clearances
• A minimum of 1” (25mm) clearance on all sides of the vertical
vent pipe must be maintained.
• A minimum of 1” (25mm) clearance from the top surface on the
horizontal pipe must be maintained.
• A minimum of 1” (25mm) clearance on the sides and bottom
surfaces on the horizontal pipe must be maintained.
• A minimum of 16-1/4” (412mm) clearance from any venting to
the enclosure top is required in all horizontal vent termination
installations. The horizontal pipe after the wall pass-through
must maintain a 1” (25mm) clearance to combustibles on all
surfaces of the pipe. See Figure 3.6 on page 17.
3.6.2 Vertical Terminations
Follow vent pipe manufacturer’s installation instructions for vertical
terminations.
• Attic insulation shields may be insulated using unfaced
insulation products listed as non-combustible per ASTM E 136.
3.6.3 Horizontal Terminations
WARNING: Do not recess the vent cap into wall or siding.
IMPORTANT: Horizontal vent sections require 1/4” (6mm) rise for every
12” (305mm) of travel for natural draft applications.
Wall thimble products that comply with the required 1” (25mm) top
clearance to combustibles must be installed for all horizontal vent
runs that pass through interior or exterior walls. These wall thimble
products may be insulated using unfaced insulation products listed as
noncombustible per ASTM E 136.
Elbows listed with approved vent systems for this appliance vary in
vertical length. Please consult the vent manufacturer’s instructions
to determine the elbow dimension used for installation. Adjust the
wall pass-through rough opening dimensions to maintain clearance
requirements.
3.6.4 Wall Pass Through Framing Instructions
1. Measure from oor level of the replace to the center of where
the vent pipe will penetrate the wall. The dimension in Figure 3.7
on page 17 is used with a Simpson DuraVent elbow.
2. Cut and frame an opening in the wall to allow the vent system to
run level through the wall pass-through.
3. Follow the vent pipe manufacturer’s installation instructions for
natural draft vent installation.
• Rigid pipe dimensions are tested with listed Simpson Duravent
pipe. Other manufacturers product dimensions may vary.

7.3 Natural Draft Vent Restriction
Burner ame appearance and characteristics are aected by altitude,
fuel quality, venting conguration, and other factors. To achieve
desirable ame appearance, the vent exhaust may be restricted by
the restrictor plate (included in components packet).
The restrictor plate is shipped with all inner rings intact, and when
installed, provides the most vent restriction. There are (2) inner rings
that can be knocked out. The innermost ring knocked out will create
less restriction, and the outer most ring knocked out will create the
least amount of restriction.
Follow Figure 7.1 for restrictor plate installation before attaching
venting or through the bae if venting is already attached. For vent
restriction plate recommendations and adjustments, see Section
11.2.2 Vent Restriction (after installation) on page 67.
Restrictor Plate
Slide restrictor into exhaust pipe on
top of replace with the tabs facing

11.2 Burner Flame Adjustments
WARNING: To avoid property damage or personal injury, allow the
replace ample time to cool before making any adjustments.
Burner ame appearance and characteristics are aected by
altitude, fuel quality, venting conguration, and other factors. After
installation, this appliance may need additional adjustments to
achieve optimum ame appearance and visual aesthetics.
11.2.1 Burner Venturi
WARNING: VENTURI ADJUSTMENT MUST BE DONE BY A QUALIFIED
SERVICE TECHNICIAN.
NOTE: Burner venturi air shutter settings have been factory set. Refer
to Table 11.3.
When this appliance is rst lit, the burner ames will appear blue.
During the rst 15 minutes of operation, ame appearance will
gradually turn to the desired yellow appearance. If the ames remain
blue, or become dark orange with evidence of sooting (black tips),
adjustment of the air shutter opening may be necessary.
Regardless of venturi orientation, closing the air shutter will achieve a
desired yellow ame, but may produce soot on the glass. Opening the
air shutter will cause a short, blue ame that may lift o the burner.
