Framing
WARNING:
When this appliance is installed directly on carpeting, tile or
any combustible material other than wood ooring, it must be
installed on a metal or wood panel extending the full width and
depth of the appliance.
* Clearance from the top of the replace to a combustible ceiling within the replace
enclosure
** Refer to the 'Finishing around the replace' section of this manual.
Unprotected combustible walls which are perpendicular to the replace
opening, must not project beyond the shaded area shown in Figure
24.
For protection against freezing temperatures, it is recommended that
outer walls of the chase be insulated with a vapor barrier. This will reduce
the possibility of a cold-air convection current on the replace.
