manual abstract
Usually, no special floor support is needed for the firebox, however, to be certain: 1. Estimate the total weight of the firebox system and surround materials such as marble, brick, stone, etc., to be installed. 2. Measure the square footage of the floor space to be occupied by the system and surrounds. 3. Note the floor construction, i.e. 2 x 6’s, 2 x 8’s or 2 x 10’s, single or double joists, type and thickness of floor boards. 4. Use this information and consult your local building code to determine if you need additional support. CAUTION: DO NOT BLOCK THE HEAT-CIRCULATING AIR INLETS AND OUTLETS ON THE VFC AND VFCE MODELS. DOING SO MAY CREATE A POTENTIAL FIRE HAZARD. If you plan to raise the firebox, build the platform assembly then position firebox on top. Secure the platform to the floor to prevent possible shifting.

Firebox Installation Firebox Installation quirements identified in this manual. Step 1. Slide the firebox into prepared framing or position firebox in its final position and frame later. Step 2. Refer to firebox and framing specifications on pages 6, 7and 8 Figures 6 through 10 for framing dimensions and details. Framing header may be positioned directly on the firebox top spacers. Note:The framed depth from a framed wall, must always be measured from a finished surface.If a wall covering such as drywall is to be attached to the rear wall, then the depth must be measured from the drywall surface.It is important that this dimension be exact. IMPORTANT: UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHALL THE FIREBOX TOP SPACERS BE REMOVED OR MODIFIED. THE HEADER MAY BE IN DIRECT CONTACT WITH THE TOP SPACERS BUT MUST NOT BE SUPPORTED BY THEM OR NOTCHED TO FIT AROUND THEM. Step 3. Level the firebox by checking the top edge of the firebox. Shim if necessary. Step 4. Fireplace should be secured to side framing members using the full length nailing tabs at the top and bottom of the fireplace front face. Use 8d nails (see Figure 9).
