Qualied Installing Agency

Installation and replacement of gas piping, gas utilization

equipment or accessories and repair and servicing of equipment

shallbeperformedonlybyaqualiedagency.Theterm"qualied

Cleaning Instructions at Installation

Thisreboxisbuiltusingmostlyhigh-gradestainlesssteelto

resist rust-through. In outdoor applications, all stainless steel will

develop a dull patina and, depending on the local environment

and on the materials used in the installation, may develop some

surface oxidation (rust). This does not affect the performance

oftherebox,anddoesnotrequireanyactiontocorrect.Ifyou

preferkeepingyourreboxfrontlookingfactory-fresh,cleanitas

required with stainless steel cleaner.

When installation application includes highly acidic applications

such as acid wash or stone etching, do not remove the protective

PVClmfromthestainlesssteeluntilafterthisapplicationis

complete.Oncethelmhasbeenremovedwerecommend

that the appliance be cleaned with a stainless steel cleaner

immediately.

Pleasenotethatareaswherethelmhasbeenformed(corners,

hems, etc.) may require extra cleaning due to the properties of

thelm.Ensurethatallprotectivelmhasbeenremovedfrom

thereboxpriortoburningtherebox.

TELEVISION CONSIDERATIONS

Installing a television above an rebox has become increasingly

popular;however, the area above anyreboxgetshotandmost

TV manufacturers recommend against placing their products near

a heat source.

If you install a television above this rebox, Empire Comfort

Systems accepts no responsibility for damage or injuries. Follow

the television manufacturer’s installation instructions, including any

recommendations regarding proximity to heat sources.

IfyouhaveaTVaboveyourrebox,turnoffthereboxandletit

cool completely before servicing or touching any buttons on the TV.

44373-0-0522Page 10

Inplanningtheinstallationfortherebox,itisnecessaryto

determine where the unit is to be installed. Gas supply piping

should also be planned at this time.

Thereboxcanbemountedonanyofthesesurfaces:

1. Aatcombustibleornon-combustiblesurface.

2. A raised platform combustible material.

3. Fourcornersofthereboxsocontactismadeonallfour

perimeter edges on its bottom.

(Example: Four concrete blocks - if allowed by local code.)

Ifthereboxisinstalleddirectlyoncarpeting,tileorother

materialotherthanwoodooring,itshouldbeinstalledona

metal or wood panel extending the full width and depth of the

rebox.

Decide what components to include in your installation.

Thisreboxisintendedforinstallationonanoutdoorpatioor

inyouryard.Thisreboxshallbeusedonlyoutdoorsinawell

ventilated space and shall NOT be used in a building, garage, or

other enclosed area.

Installthereboxinanareashelteredfromdirectwind,which

maycauseerraticamesandmainburneroutage.Erraticames

could also cause soot on logs, walls or ceiling. Flame outages

and sooting are nuisances but pose no safety issues.

Typical installation may include covered patio, gazebo or an

outside wall of a house.

• Minimum porch area – 96 sq ft

• Minimum ceiling height – 84 inches

Installation in partial enclosures must conform with one of the

following conditions:

• With walls on all sides, but with no overhead cover. See

Figure 4.

FIREPLACE

Figure 4

• Within a partial enclosure which includes an overhead cover

and no more than two side walls. These side walls may be

parallel, as in a breezeway or at right angles to each side.

See Figure 5.

FIREPLACE

Figure 5

• Within a partial enclosure that includes an overhead cover and

three side walls, as long as 30 percent or more of the horizontal

periphery (perimeter of walls and open side) of the enclosure

is permanently open. See Figure 6.

FIREPLACE

Figure 6

If installing in a screened in porch, the open space must be adjusted

(increased) from 30 percent (adjusted open space = 30% / % open

area of the screen mesh). “Example, if you used a screen with a

66% open area, the minimum open space of your building must

be 46% of the periphery. If you have a covered screened-in porch

that has two side walls that are 16’, one wall that was against the

house that’s 20’ and one open side that’s 20’, you would have a

perimeter of 72’. You would need to have 33’ of the perimeter open

(72’ x 46% = 33’).”

(Contact your screen manufacturer or screen dealer to

determine your screens open area).

Outdoor Firebox Enclosure Requirements

Donotinstallreboxuntilallnecessaryprovisionsaremadefor

combustion and ventilation air. Consult the written instructions

providedwiththereboxforinformationconcerningcombustion

and ventilation air. In the absence of instructions, refer to

theNationalFuelGasCode,ANSIZ223.1/NFPA54,Airfor

Combustion and Ventilation, or applicable local codes.
