Installation Notes
This fireplace is for outdoor use only and must never be installed in a building, garage or other enclosed area. Shelter it from direct wind, slope hearths and chase platforms away from the structure, and add a weather door or bi-fold door to protect it from moisture. Gas piping must be installed by a qualified agency. Vent-free gas appliances cannot be installed in New York City under the NYC Fuel Gas Code. We sell this model for installations outside the five boroughs where local code allows it. Book a free design consultation and we will help you plan the layout, utilities and installation.
