Installation Notes
A qualified gas installer must vent the Vantage with approved 4 x 7 in. concentric pipe inside the Marquis limits and keep the listed clearances; in a mobile home it must be grounded to the chassis. In New York City, gas work requires a licensed master plumber and permits, and direct vent stoves are a common code-compliant choice.
