ENW415-1345 / D / 05.01.17 29framing6.0 framing! WARNING• Risk of fire!• In order to avoid the possibility of exposed insulation or vapour barrier coming in contact with the appliancebody, it is recommended that the walls of the appliance enclosure be “fi nished” (i.e. drywall / sheetrock),as you would finish any other outside wall of a home. This will ensure that clearance to combustibles ismaintained within the cavity.• Do not notch the framing around the appliance stand offs. Failure to maintain air space clearance may causeover heating and fire. Prevent contact with sagging or loose insulation or framing and other combustiblematerials. Block opening into the chase to prevent entry of blown-in insulation. Make sure insulation andother materials are secured.• When constructing the enclosure allow for finishing material closer than the minimums listed must beconstructed entirely of non-combustible materials. Materials consisting entirely of steel, iron, brick, tile,concrete, slate, glass or plasters, or any combination thereof are suitable. Materials that are reported aspassing ASTM E136, standard test method for behaviour of materials in a vertical tube furnace at 1382ºF(750ºC) and UL763 shall be considered non-combustible materials.• Minimum clearance to combusibles must be maintained or a serious fire hazard could result.• The appliance requires a minimum enclosure height. Measure from the appliance base.• If steel stud framing kits with cement board are provided, or specifi ed in the installation instructions, theymust be installed.• If specifi ed in the installation instruction, fi nishing must be done using a non-combustible board, ceramic tile,marble, etc. Do NOT use wood or drywall. Any fire rated drywall is not acceptable.When using optional finishing accessories, the framing dimensions and fi nishing materials may differ fromwhat is outlined in the section below; refer to the leaflet instructions supplied in the accessory kit for specifi cframing and finishing specifi cations.note:It is best to frame your appliance after it is positioned and the vent system is installed. Frame to local buildingcodes.It is not necessary to install a hearth extension with this appliance system.When roughing in the appliance, raise the appliance to accommodate for the thickness of the finished fl oormaterials, i.e. tile, carpeting, hard wood, which if not planned for will interfere with the opening of the lower accessdoor and the installation of many decorative flashing accessories.Combustible materials may be installed flush with the front of the appliance but must not cover any of the blackface-areas of the appliance. Non-combustible material (brick, stone or ceramic tile) may protrude in these areas.* HORIZONTAL VENT SECTIONS - A minimum clearance of 1" (25mm) at the bottom and sides and 2" (51mm)at the top of the vent pipe on all horizontal runs to combustibles is required. Use firestop spacer W010-1777(supplied).* VERTICAL VENT SECTIONS - A minimum of 1" (25mm) all around the vent pipe on all vertical runsto combustibles is required except for clearances in appliance enclosures. See "MINIMUM ENCLOSURECLEARANCES" section. Use firestop spacer W500-0096 (not supplied).Minimum clearance to combustible construction from appliance and vent surfaces:Combustible Framing:- 3 1/2" (89mm) from top of stand-offs- 1" (25mm) to bottom and sides of the vent pipe*- 2" (51mm) to top of the vent pipe*Combustible Finishing:- 0" to rear- 0" to front face and sides, 6 1/2"(165mm) for top- 17 1/4" (43.8cm) recessed depthRear Exit- 40 1/2" (102.9cm) to enclosure top from base of the appliance- 54" (137.2cm) to ceiling from base of the applianceTop Exit- 49" (124.5cm) to enclosure top from base of the appliance- 54" (137.2cm) to ceiling from base of the appliance
